Islam of any colour is rooted to the Koran.

Islam was created in a violent region to suppress violence amongst tribes by crushing tribes that would not be suppressed and converted, and for the past 1300 years has been pushing itself by one war after another.

Only when confronted and beaten back are there periods of less activity in the incessant drive to Islamify the whole world.

To describe Islam as a religion of peace is like saying the Borgias were a nice family and good at catering.
