I don't beleive their G-d is the same G-d as that for Christians and Jews. Our G-d specifies to test Prophets and use our Bible for the test. If they follow a prophet who goes against what our Bible teaches, then they can not believe in the same G-d. They may believe he is the same but that does not make it so.
Their God cannot be a different God, because there isn't any other God. Although they have plenty of the facts wrong about God (assuming we have them right), there is so much we do agree on, that to pretend their God is pure fiction is absurd. They are clearly worshiping the same God, but have some (in a few cases, pretty major) facts wrong about Him.
If I were to sit down and write an essay on America right now, without doing any additional research, I would probably get a lot of my facts wrong, but I wouldn't be talking about a different America than the one you live in. (Assuming you live in America.)
Where do you get your facts regarding how many Muslims do not agree with the terrorist activities
Well, I've met a lot of Muslims in Pakistan, quite a lot in Australia, a few in England, and one or two in Dubai, and I've yet to meet one who does agree with the terrorism. Anyway, what happened to a presumption of innocence.
and why do you discount the parts of the Koran which are not so peaceful ?
Because I also have to discount the parts of the bible that are not so peaceful (eg substantial parts of Joshua). Or rather, read them in the light of the rest of the book and the religion's understanding of their meaning.
The Muslims are actually quite organized worldwide.
There are organised groups of Muslims. There is not one, worldwide, large Muslim organisation equivalent to the sort of large organisations that exist within Christianity. Individual Muslim mosques are all independent - there are no equivalent of churches such as the RCC, the Lutheran Church, the Anglican Communion, the Methodist Church or whatever.
Just check the Media reports across the world. For example, the PBS in the USA was quite pro Arab/Muslim because of the huge amount of donations which was exposed after 9/11.
Which proves what?
Check any online posts , check anti-semitism rise and the groups that are pushing it (especially in France).
I'm English.
I think you severely underestimate the Muslim's Beliefs and think of them as poor undereducated people.
I most certainly do not. On what do you base this assertion.
Majority of them poor but as a whole have lots of hidden funds, many are very intellegent and educated, brainwashing the young is very dangerous for future, etc.
Muslims are no more guilty of brainwashing their children than Christians. Raising your children within your religion isn't brainwashing.
I think there is a real problem amongst Christians in general to look at this as a secular issue and not take sides and defend our religious freedom and really show we believe that out G-d is the true G-d and Creator.
Although I have no idea if we are in the End Times or not, we must still watch the events and be ready. There is a passage that says we will all have to take sides and not be fence sitters as so many of us tend to be. I trust my Creator as he has given me everything and Christians and Jews must make it clear there is a line in the sand and begin speaking out.
Perhaps we do have to speak out sometimes. But you'd better make sure you are speaking out about the right things in the right way. Spreading lies, half-truths and hatred is
not Christ's way. Better to keep your mouth shut than speak from ignorance. Christ's way will triumph, but not that way.
