Pretty weak stance on that statement. The whole ideology behind the attacks on the World Trade Centers spawned from martyrdom being a justified reason. Something in which more than a handful of Muslims agree with. There were Muslims cheering all over the world that day, so I'm sorry the Christian stance is horse shit. Ron Paul or not, he's a little more out there than I thought.
Here's some food for thought:
Qur'an 60:8 "Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Religion nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: for Allah loves those who are just dealers. Allah only forbids you, with regard to those who fight you for (your) Religion, and drive you out of your homes, and support (others) in driving you out, from turning to them (for friendship). Those who turn to them, do wrong." This verse is used by Islamic clerics to justify attacking America. The United States supports Israel, a nation they wrongly contend has driven Muslims from their homes.
BTW- Just saying a statement by a politician, is like a girl telling you "I don't normally do this...." Point being, professional liars trying to get votes is nothing I'll take with less than a grain of salt.
