Does Quran teach terrorism and intolerance?

Lies being taught; 
Islam is a religion of peace.

Now the truth about peaceful religion as quoted in Quran;

1) The Prophet Muhammad urges Muslims to fight in the cause of Allah.

"0 prophet Muhammad urge the believers (Muslims) to fight" (Surat Al-Anfal 8:65).

"Jihad (holy fighting in Allah's cause) is ordained for"

(Surat A1-Baqarah 2:216).

2) The Quran commands Muslims not to befriend Jews or Christians

"0 ye who believe (Muslims) take not the Jews or the Christians for your friends and protectors. They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he among you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them" (Surat AI-Maidah 5:51).

3) The Quran commands Muslims to fight Jews and Christians

"Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews, Hindus and Christians) until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued" (Surah At-Taubah 9:29).

Jizyah is a special high tax to be paid only by Jews, Hindus or Christians who do not want to renounce their religion and convert to Islam.

4) The Quran commands Muslims to fight non-Muslims until they exterminate all other religions and Islam would be the only religion in the world.

'And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah) and (all and every kind of) worship is for Allah (alone). But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against As-Zatimun (the polytheists and wrong doers)" (Surat AI-Baqara 2:193).

This verse is mentioned also in Surat AI-Anfal 8:39. Because of the misunderstanding and ignorance of Christianity, Muslims believe that Christians are polytheists, because they believe in a Triune God. Fundamentalists look at Jews, Hindus and Christians and all non-Muslims as infidels who must be killed because they have no value as human beings and must be exterminated from the face of the earth.

Fundamentalists divide the world into two camps, Dar Al-Harb' (Camp of war) where Jews and Christians live, and Dar AI-Sallam (Camp of peace) where Muslims live. They believe that Holy war against those who live in the camp of war should continue until they are exterminated.Fundamentalists dream of a global Islamic empire. They believe that if they destroy all non Islamic nations, than they will achieve this dream.

5) The Quran declares that Muslims who fight and die in battle are promised forgiveness and a sexual luxurious life in Paradise.

"And if you are killed or die in the Way of Allah, forgiveness and mercy from Allah are far better than all that they amass (of worldly wealth)' (Surat AI-lmran 3:157).

'Verily, Allah has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties for (the price) that theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allah's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed. It is a promise in truth which is binding on Him" (Surat At-Taubah 9:111).

What can martyrs expect in paradise? The Quran describes life in paradise in the following words:

"Eat and drink with happiness because of what you used to do. They will recline (with ease) on thrones arranged in ranks. And We shall marry them to Hur (fair females) with wide lovely eyes. And We shall provide Them with fruit and meat such as they desire' (Surat At-Tur 52:17-20,22).

"Water flowing constantly and fruit in plenty whose supply is not cut off and reclining on couches raised high, verily we have created them (women) of special creation and made them virgins of equal age" (Surat AI-Waqiah 56:31-37).

"Gardens and vineyards and young full-breasted virgins of equal age and a full cup of wine" (Surat An-Naba 78:32-34).

Some prominent Muslim clerics call the suicide bombers martyrs because in the Quran, a martyr is guaranteed total forgiveness of his sins and eternal life in paradise where he can drink wine and will be married to a great number of beautiful sensual virgins. While in fact these martyrs are nothing more than murderers.

6) The Quran commands Muslims to terrorize and torture and kill anyone who disobeys Allah and the Prophet Muhammad:

"(Remember) when your Lord revealed to the angels, 'Verily I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieve, so strike them over the necks and smite over all their fingers and toes. This is because they defied and disobeyed Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad). And whoever defies and disobeys Allah and His Messenger, them verily, Allah is Severe in punishment. This is (the torment), so taste it; and surely, for the disbelievers is the torment of the Fire" (Surat AI-Anfal 8:12-14).

"The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad) and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter'

(Surat AI-Maidah 5:33).

7) The Quran declares that Allah loves those who fight in His cause.

"Verily, Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in rows as if they were solid structures" (Surat As-Saff 61:4).

8) The Quran commands Muslims to convert non-Muslims to Islam by force.

"Kill the Mushrikun (polytheists, Christians and non-Muslims), wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform As-salat (public prayer with Muslims) and give Zakat (Islamic alms), then leave their way free. Allah is oft-forgiving, most merciful' (Surat At-Taubah 9;5).

"Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction." The heart of man is naturally evil. You can ignite that evil with religious gasoline. The Quran's verses ignites evil in the hearts of most muslims hearts.

While violence committed by militant Muslims is sanctioned and commanded by the Quran, any atrocities committed by Christians were never sanctioned by the New Testament commandments. For Jesus Christ commanded His apostle Peter,

"Put your sword in its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the swords (Matthew 26:52).

9) NO FREEDOM OF THOUGHT IN ISLAM

"Then what is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties about the apostates? Allah has cast them back (to disbelief) because of what they have earned. Do you want to guide him whom Allah has made to go astray? And he whom Allah has made to go astray, you will never find for him any way (of guidance). They wish that you reject Faith, as they have rejected (Faith), and thus that you all become equal (like one another). So take not Aouliya (protectors or friends) from them, till They emigrate in the Way of Allah (to Muhammad) But if they turn back (from Islam), take (hold of) them and kill them wherever you find them, and take neither Aouliya (protectors or friends) nor helpers from them" (Surat An-Nisa 4:88,89).

This verse means that if a person says the Islamic Shahada (creed): "1 testify that there is no God but Allah. I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah," he cannot change his mind, If he does change his mind, he will be executed or beheaded as is happening many times in Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and other Islamic countries. Islam is a prison with no way out. Once a person enters that prison, he cannot leave it alive. Even to be an atheist is a crime punishable by death.
