It is interesting that some on this forum (Phil for example) who are experts in comparative religion say Muslims call non-Muslims ''Infidels''. The language of Islam is arabic. Infidel is not an Arabic word, it comes from the Latin ''infidelis'' which is translated into English as ''unfaithful''. The Christian Crusaders referred to the Muslims they were fighting as ''infidels''! The Arabic word for ''infidel'' is ''Kafir'' which is translated into English as ''unbeliever''.
So Phil, form now on when you want to tell us who the Muslims want to kill please say ''Kufaar'' (the plural of Kafir) instead of ''infidels''! No reason not to be accurate in your deranged blather!
