ALI: Islam is not a European religion. There are Muslims in Europe, and they bring Islam to Europe. Islam is a set of beliefs. It’s a set of values. And what we are seeing in Europe is that there is conflict between the values of Europe and the values of Islam.
Political Islam is the root cause of the violence and warfare that is so common in all of the places of the world where Islam is in contact with that world.
Example: Tribute or 'poll tax' is imposed upon non-Muslims who live in Muslim 'lands'. The payor is exempt from military service.
Taxation and conscription are two important functions of the modern national government. Not to mention that Islam has no 'land' to defend or 'occupy' than the Catholic Church does with the land that a church is sitting on in New York or Paris.
