Again, certainly, after talking about these conditions and prerequisites, if that situation outlined is present, according to the Quran, fighting would be a "duty" of the muslim.
The Quran certainly does not command its followers to "conquer the world" in the name of sharia, in fact, it says the exact opposite: that if God had wanted the entire world to be muslim, he would have made it so, and what is man's place that he thinks he should countermand God?
I've read the whole Qur'an at least once, with the intent of discovering what Jihad actually was. I don't feel compelled to look at isolated verses, taken out of context. I agree completely with babloyi's statements which I quoted above.
I say this as an eight year veteran of the US military who has engaged in acts of war in a classified mission by direct orders of a US President.
To demonstrate the perversity of American norm, I will make 2 statements.

It can be established that Christian violence is not consistent with the example of Jesus Christ.

Does he? Where? If there is an actual hadith stating as such, then it most definitely goes against the Quran (which is the undeniable higher authority for muslims), and thus this saying of Muhammad would be considered unauthentic and weak- this process has been done with thousands of hadith.

I am not sure I can so easily agree with that. It is an established fact by all traditional denominations of Christianity that Jesus will return to unleash all manner of whoop-ass on his enemies, basically killing them all.
Another example is Jesus's behaviour with the money-lenders.
Another is Jesus telling his disciples to buy swords.

I believe that an international conspiracy of these individuals[psychopaths] is currently working tirelessly to bring about a singular, centralised global government, (the "New World Order") and that both this conspiracy and its' intent is literally demonic in origin. The ultimate logical extension of this conspiracy's process, is the initial subjugation, followed by the rapid extinction of, both humanity and most other forms of life on Earth. I am inclined to believe that this conspiracy has been active for at least the last 25,000 years. This conspiracy's process has been allowed to proceed closer to fruition than I personally am comfortable with, at the current time. My intent is not to allow it to proceed further.
It can be said without qualification, that America is the single most degenerate, relentlessly destructive human culture that has ever existed, bar none. You can love your country as much as you like, but if you are going to be remotely objective, that cannot be honestly denied.
If I may also be allowed to say that I support people getting up to study the Quran by itself, but its lacking if you don't study the history of the area and the events that LEAD to the verses being sent in the Quran. For each verse was sent after a specific event, for a very good reason.
no educated Muslim can say that fighting under secrecy, using spies, and blowing up buildings (like the way Al-Qaeda works) without an open and fair arena for fighting, is approved by God. God would never approve such a cowardly way of fighting..to hit and run...fighting needs to be open, on equal grounds, with the leaders facing each other in war instead of sitting in their comfy rooms hitting buttons to kill people in the other side of the world.

Truthfully, the one thing I'm beginning to wish I could do where Muhammed is concerned, is conduct a seance. It's a shame the guy isn't still alive...then someone could sit down with him and talk it out, once and for all.
I also say this because let's face it; scriptures cannot necessarily be considered completely reliable. I don't believe, as one example, that the claim of spiritual exclusivity attributed to Jesus, ("I am the way, the truth, and the life,") is something he would have really said, but rather was something inserted by Catholicism in order to maintain control. The Jesus Christ that I believe in, personally, would have had a lot more sense. He would have known how such a statement could have been misinterpreted, and what the consequences of such would have been.
Wonderful. That is exactly what I am looking for. If the negative behaviours that Muslims engage in can be shown to be unfounded, on the basis of their own theology, then we have a legitimate basis to tell them to stop engaging in them.

I will have to leave defense of Islam up to Muslims such as nusnus, because I haven't read any of the hadiths or whatever documents comprise shariah law.
Our intents are the same. In my own way, I believe that the NWO is actually pushing for a Zionist dream of theocracy under a messianic figure, world empire, centered in ethnically cleansed Jerusalem, with all subject nations paying tribute tax to Jerusalem. And that's all Biblical, Torah, Prophets, Psalms, New Testament book of Revelation.

Indeed, you are allowed. I know that to be true. Unfortunate for me that I don't seem to have the time to read all the hadiths and some other materials not even translated into English.
Basically you have a scenario where every 25,000 years or so, (the time it takes for a complete orbit of the zodiac, in blocks of 2150 years per sign) planet Earth gets hit with a giant press of the reset button. Sometimes that's caused by local disasters, other times by weird space weather, but the long and the short of it is, that it always seems to happen at about the same time.
During at least the last two of these periods, the gang that we currently know and love as the Illuminati, have been trying to establish the type of scenario outlined in the Georgia Guidestones; minimal human population, those that are here are enslaved, living in fear and misery, and dancing to their tune generally, etc etc.

MT 16:2 He replied, "When evening comes, you say, `It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,' 3 and in the morning, `Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
Thank Allah (if it is appropriate to say that) for that and I hope people thank Qaddafi for doing whatever he could towards fighting evil.
The worshipful fetishist fawning over the so-called Jewish state of Israel is almost 100% in U.S. Congress. A religion called Judeo-Christian is the de facto religion in America. The alliance is specifically warned about in the Koran. Think of Islam as those people without any excuse if they don't recognize the threat. The counter balance, if you will.

Muammar Gaddafi - Wikipedia
Colonel Gaddafi, was the autocratic ruler of Libya from 1969, when he seized power in a military coup, until August 2011
. . .
His 42-year rule prior to the Civil War makes him the fourth longest-ruling non-royal leader since 1900, as well as the longest-ruling Arab leader.[2] He variously styled himself as 'the Brother Leader', 'Guide of the Revolution' and the 'King of Kings'.
After seizing power in 1969, he abolished the Libyan Constitution of 1951 and imposed laws based on his political ideology.[3] Gaddafi formulated an ideology, calling it the Third International Theory and publishing it in The Green Book.[4][5] Gaddafi and his relatives took over much of the economy.
1KI 12:12 Three days later Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, as the king had said, "Come back to me in three days." 13 The king answered the people harshly. Rejecting the advice given him by the elders, 14 he followed the advice of the young men and said, "My father made your yoke heavy; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions." 15 So the king did not listen to the people, for this turn of events was from the LORD, to fulfill the word the LORD had spoken to Jeroboam son of Nebat through Ahijah the Shilonite.
1KI 12:16 When all Israel saw that the king refused to listen to them, they answered the king:
"What share do we have in David,
what part in Jesse's son?
To your tents, O Israel!
Look after your own house, O David!"
"The test of every policy the Administration develops in the Middle East is whether it is consistent with the goal of ensuring Israel’s future as a secure, Jewish, democratic state. That is a commitment that runs as a common thread through our entire government."
