Introduction
Islam on Trial

Became interested in Islam after September 11.
Terrorists flew into symbolic American buildings killing 3,000+.
Did not do it for land or money but proudly in the name of their religion.
Warrants a full blown investigation into what this religion is.
Haunting silence after 9/11

Islam is an idea not a race Islam is an idea like feminism, Christianity
or Nazism and can be criticized as such. Criticizing Islam does not make you racist
Being opposed to Christianity does not make you a racist against Christians

Opening of Koran Sura 1 is 7 verses long and says, “Praise to Allah” Sura 2, essentially the opening of the Koran
(emphasis mine):
Koran
2:2 This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off (evil).2:3 Who believe in the Unseen, and establish worship, and spend of that We have bestowed upon them;2:4 And who believe in that which is revealed unto thee (Muhammad) and that which was revealed before thee, and are certain of the Hereafter.
2:5 These depend on guidance fromtheir Lord. These are the successful.2:6 As for the Disbelievers, Whether thou warn them or thou warn them not it is all one for them; they believe not.2:7 Allah hath sealed their hearing and their hearts, and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be an awful doom.

This is almost all there is to the Koran!
Repeated threats and insults at infidels. They are stupid, thankless, liars, hated
by Allah Will be sent to hell where they will
choke on food, have no friends, and have boiling water poured on their heads
Calls to fight against the infidels Promises of good things in the after
life for believers

Statistical study of Koran Main purpose is to give
warranted percentage of how much of Koran is venom aimed at infidels
201 verses. Picked by taking middle verse of every Sura and every 70th verse in addition.
Study
Islam on Trial
www.amberpawlik.com
53% (106/201) is hatred aimed at infidels, defined as: Threats towards infidels either in the afterlife or this life. Degrading infidels by calling them evil, stupid, blind, deaf, liars,
thankless, etc. Calls to fight against them. Verses that say "except the believers" when wishing death on
nonbelievers were counted as hatred since avoiding death is not a positive to believers.
The threat or insult can be aimed at infidels in general or any specific infidel.
25% (50/201) deals with believers, defined as: Mentioning them. Saying they are righteous. Saying they will get good things. Any mentions of one of the prophets was put into this category
too.

11% (23/201) deal with Allah: Who he is. That he is almighty. Any of his creations.
5% (10/201) deal with the Day of Doom or the Day of Judgment: The Day of Doom is when destruction is sent on the earth. The Day of Judgment is when all are judged before Allah. Any message pertaining to how God records what men do was assigned this
category.
2.5% (5/201) are anti-woman: That it’s OK to beat a woman. Women and slaves get married off but have no choice in the matter and is very
self-serving to Muhammad How to divorce your wife
2% (4/201) deal with giving to the poor in some way 0.5% (1/201) Disapproves of a man who murdered someone, for it was for
the wrong reason to kill someone. 0.5% (1/201) says it is OK for people to have their religion while Muslims
have theirs.

No definitive objective or concrete moral system No unequivocal “Do not kill” or “Do not steal.”
Islam is actually very permissive, especially for men An occasional “give to the poor.” Muslims are supposed to remain humble, putting all
resources into the cause of Islam. Even children are a test of a Muslim’s faith
Let not, therefore, their riches or their children amaze thee. God is only minded to punish them by these, in this life present, and that their souls may depart while they are unbelievers. (9.55)
Certainly are excited for riches in heaven however But, for the God-fearing is a blissful abode, Enclosed gardens
and vineyards; And damsels with swelling breasts, their peers in age. (78.31-33)
Morality
Islam on Trial
www.amberpawlik.com
Sura 38.44: A punishment to wives can be accomplished with a rod with 100 whips rather than 100 lashes
Muslim men are allowed 4 wives. Muhammad however was allowed as many as he wanted Muslim women think this is benevolent
Blatant advocacy of rape: “It is not permitted thee to take other wives
hereafter, nor to change thy present wives for other women, though their beauty charm thee, except slaves whom thy right hand shall possess. And God watcheth all things.” (33.52)
Sura 66.1: Muhammad’s wife asks him to stop sleeping with a slave. Muhammad tells her Allah says it is OK so to hell with her wishes!
Islam was Mohammed’s rationalization to do what he wants in the name of religion.

Threats against infidels "... This book is no other than a warning and
a clear Koran, To warn whoever liveth; and, that against the Infidels sentence may be justly given." (36.69-70)
Dehumanizing and devaluing of all infidels with insults
Predestination: Allah makes them be infidels
War is to be made on infidels. If they submit, they can live but their houses must be handed over to Muslims and they must pay tax to Muslims. Dhimmitude.
Those who don’t submit are to be killed

Quotes from the Koran O our Lord! punish us not if we forget, or fall into sin; O our
Lord! and lay not on us a load like that which thou has laid on those who have been before us; O our Lord! and lay not on us that for which we have not strength: but blot out our sins and forgive us, and have pity on us. Thou art our protector: give us victory therefore over the infidel nations. (2.286)
When thy Lord spake unto the angels, “I will be with you: therefore stablish ye the faithful. I will cast a dread into the hearts of the infidels.” Strike off their heads then, and strike off from them every finger tip. (8.12)
Make war upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given as believe not in God, or in the last day, and who forbid not that which God and His Apostle have forbidden, and who profess not the profession of the truth, until they pay tribute out of hand, and they be humbled. (9.29)

Ideological battle not a military one! Communism could not be defeated
militarily. Vietnam did not end communism Need to strike at root: ideology. Problem with
communism not just “bad people.” Reagan fought it ideologically. Humor about
Soviet Russia Sun Tzu: Hence to fight and conquer in all your
battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.
Crusades did not eliminate Islam Islam, like communism, is not just a matter of
“bad people” taking over an otherwise good philosophy
Islamic terrorism should be fought militarily. Islam should be fought ideologically.
Ideological Battle
Islam on Trial
www.amberpawlik.com
Call it for what it is: evil Sick, twisted, deranged ideology History of Islam Humor
Meta-debate needs won People have a RIGHT to criticize Islam
Simpson / South Park – Threat from Revolution Muslim Burn a Koran Day – American flag can be burned but not Koran
General Petraeus weighs in / Freedom of speech given by soldier
If submit to bullying, already living as dhimmis. Asking you to defend free speech against bullying and terrorism People pick up message: Do not criticize Islam
Islam should be able to coexist; handle criticism and take a joke If it can’t, should be regarded as terrorist ideology
Hero’s work

Review
Islam on Trial
www.amberpawlik.com
My own conclusions are that the Koran preaches violence against infidels with repeated venom against infidels and endless rewards and mercy for believers
This exact analysis of the Koran has been expressed by Muslim terrorists
Fort Hood killer: Nidal Malik Hasan Presentation: The
Koranic World View As It Relates to Muslims in the U.S. Military
Islam inspires people to violence Attendees horrified by speech Media didn’t want to admit Islam to blame Asking you to take objective look at Islam
Terrorist Inspiration

Christianity Islam is worse than Christianity
Does not make Christianity look bad when comparing it to Islam. It makes Islam look tolerable.
Worried to tar name of religion Game changer if Christians stood up to Islam Christianity secularized by Thomas Acquinas
Feminism Reaction is completely abhorrent: do not condemn
misogynistic culture of Islam
Candidate Ideologies

Academia Further belief Koran is “too complex” to understand Working to destroy reason. Cannot be sure of what is
plainly in front of us. They are not skeptics. Further idea of multiculturalism
Animal Rights Activists Disagree with them mostly but their reaction to Islam
has been most sincere Condemn animal violence where it exists If only those who advocated for humans were this
clear-minded, unafraid of politically protected groups, and courageous
