Why are Muslims' words so peaceful while their behavior is so bloodthirsty and cruel?

Well I'm Jewish and have many Muslim friends who wouldn't hurt a fly, you're talking about terrorists not normal everyday people.

Their culture is one of death - so being a martyr is glorified.  life is a transient time and everything is for paradise in the world to come.\nThey kill they're sister if they think she is dihonorable\nthey kill a landowner that will sell his property to an infidel\nthey kill you if you marry an infidel.  everything for them is black or white with know higher understanding of the gray areas

Because not enough nice (moderate, assimilated worldly) Muslims have made the effort to step up a DENOUNCE the acts of hate and violence committed by fanatical jihadists who hate the rest of society.\n\nIf more Muslims came out and spoke against violent jihad, and were more open to admonishing murderous zealots, we'd have a lot more peace in this world. But as it is now, Muslims are afraid or too ashamed to speak against members of ummah. There is this code of complacency that either excuses or applauds acts of horror and death as service to Allah, and that's not right. Civilized people understand that killing is wrong, but only the brave dare to say so against the fanatics.

Because they believe the Quran is the unquestioned violent word of God.\n\n “It is not for any PROPHET TO HAVE CAPTIVES UNTIL HE HATH MADE SLAUGHTER IN THE LAND.http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/008.qmt.html\n\n“FIGHT (Jihad) THOSE WHO BELIEVE NOT IN ALLAH…until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves SUBDUED.” http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/009.qmt.html\n\n“Cursed: wherever they are found they shall be seized and murdered, a HORRIBLE MURDERING.” http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/033.qmt.html#033.061\n\nI will cast TERROR into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore STRIKE OFF THEIR HEADS AND STRIKE OFF EVERY FINGERTIP of them. http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/msa/quran/008.q...

No there are moslems that are peaceful law abiding folks. However there are those that are terroist also. Same with us though, I look at the shock and awe part of the war with Iraq as nothing more the terrorism.

Many Muslims are genuinely respectful and peaceful.\nThe religion, as such, has a very radical and violent dogma and many muslims will adhere to it. The life of Mohammed and the fondation of the Koran is based on many quotes that are extremely clear and radical to deal with issues of daily lives.\n\nMuslim who can live in resepct and peace with others, choose the verses in the Koran that suits the peaceful ways they adhere too. They will usually stick to the wholesome fondation of what the duty of a Muslim is rather than what the Koran actually DOES teach in terms of radical responses our behavior in the world.\n\nThis said, radicalism in Islam is not like the KKK. The issue that concerns many scholars and thinkers about Islam is that it can just not deny that a radical Islamist Muslim actually does follow the Koran. The proof is in the debates to try to adapt and modernize the understanding of Islam to actualize it's spiritual outlook to modernity. Yet, that movement is loosing grounds and is not supported by a majority of Muslims.

Allah is the devil so that level of violence is acceptable

Because they gutlessly caved in to the inane ravings of the violent lunatics known as Muslims.\n\nThe Muslim world routinely publishes the vilest most nauseating lies about every other religion but they have the unmitigated gall to scream death threats when anyone says anything, no matter that it is true, about their so called prophet.\n\nMuhammad personally led armies to slaughter and enslave his neighbors in his own lifetime. Not just his followers but the so called  prophet himself was a man of violence and aggressive evil.

Unfortunately, most muslims do not understand the nature of Allah.  He is more pleased with people that come to him willingly than at gunpoint.

Your knowledge of Islam is very limited, thus your querstion.\nHere goes:-\n\nIslam NEVER CONDONES violence of any kind.\n\nIslam’s Response to Terrorism\nAbdul Ghany Jahangeer Khan\n\nIslam means the religion of peace. A person following Islam will find that he or she is surrounded by noble teachings, the aim of which is to establish peace between man and Allah, the Creator of all; between man and man; and between man and the rest of Allah’s creation.\n\nHow does such a religion deal with the issue of terrorism? And what does the word terrorist mean? Dictionaries will define a terrorist as one who systematically uses violence and intimidation to achieve political ends – or one who controls or forces others to do something by violence, fear or threats.\n\nAll these definitions are covered by two words in the Holy Qur’an, the sacred book of Islam: Fitnah and Ikrâh.\n\nIn the Holy Qur’an, God begins to deal with the issue of terrorism by teaching Muslims never to become terrorists in the first place. Two of the very first verses of our Holy Book say: ‘Al-Fitnatu ashad-du minal qatl’ – meaning that in the sight of Allah, ‘persecution, or making people constantly fear for their lives, is much worse than killing’. And also: ‘Lâ ikrâha fid-dîn’ – ‘There shall be no compulsion in religion’, that is to say, that no one has the right to force others into complying with their demands or compelling others to follow their line of thinking.\n\nAllah Almighty warns the believers again and again that they should never abandon Him, the source of all goodness. Allah Almighty reminds us that it is those who have abandoned Him and thrown away all good, and divested themselves of every shred of human decency, that are the ones who will eventually resort to terrorizing others, forcing them into complying with their demands. The believers are repeatedly reminded that they would lose Allah Almighty’s love and His favors if they ever began to behave in that way.\n\nBut Islam does not content itself with these injunctions strongly forbidding Muslims from ever becoming terrorists. It also makes sure that the believers are made into highly moral, excellently behaved people, by inculcating those lofty human values that can turn them into people who sincerely love humankind without distinction of religion, race or social status. Islam no doubt encourages the logical and rational discussion of views with people of all creeds in a calm and dispassionate way, with the only aim that truth prevail over error and falsehood. But it also reminds us that it is error and falsehood as such that are to be hated and detested. The people who unfortunately hold on to error are never to be hated. That is why the motto of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is ‘Love for all, hatred for none.’\n\nIn Islam, an amazingly powerful emphasis is laid on developing love for mankind and on the vital importance of showing mercy and sympathy towards every creature of Allah Almighty, including human beings and animals. For indeed, love and true sympathy are the very antidote of terrorism.\n\nIt is related by ‘Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her, the talented wife of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, that some desert Arabs came to him one day and asked: ‘Do you kiss your children?’ He answered: ‘Yes.’ They said: ‘We never kiss them.’ The Prophet (sa) said:‘What can I do if your hearts have been stripped of compassion?’ He also said that Allah Almighty has no mercy for him who has no mercy for his fellow beings.\n\nThe measure of compassion shown by the Holy Prophet (sa) cannot but amaze anyone who knows how rough and violent was the society into which he had been born. Abu Qatâdah, may Allah be pleased with her, relates that the Messenger of Allah told him: ‘It happens that I stand up to lead the prayer, having in mind to lengthen it. Then I hear the cry of an infant and I shorten the pray

Muslims don't believe in that.You can not find this in Quran nor in Hadith. God says in Quran that if you kill one person, for me it's like you have killed everyone(it's something that he won't forgive)Muslims are only allowed to go to war if some one attacked them they aren't allowed to start a war.(Mohammad him self NEVER started a war) and the last thing is that there is no such thing as Holy war that CNN is making up for Muslims.

LOL! first of all Quran was written by a person who lived 1400 years ago!! this religion was to be spread by force and harshness, therefore their technique was to kill in the worse possible way to fear people and let no space for disagreement, and still , Muslim people are killin each other (Sonia and Shea's) because they cant kill anybody else, anyway , Islam might have been a good religion but it was good for Arab people living 1400 years ago in such a shit place!! women should have been hidden and people should have been killed or forced to follow rules but for today , am sorry its not worth a shit!!!!

Islam is indeed a peaceful religion.

The truth is that Islam is not a religion of peace. It is a religion of hate, of terror and of war. A thorough study of the Quran and Hadith reveal an Islam that is not being presented honestly by the Muslim propagandists and is not known to the majority of the people of the world including Muslim themselves. Islam, as it is taught in the Quran (Koran) and lived by Muhammad, as is reported in the Hadith (Biography and sayings of the Prophet) is a religion of Injustice, Intolerance, Cruelty, Absurdities, discrimination, Contradictions, and blind faith. Islam advocates killing the non-Muslims and abuses the human rights of minorities and women. Islam expanded mostly by Jihad (holy war) and forced its way by killing the non-believers. In Islam apostasy is the biggest crime punishable by death. Muhammad was a terrorist himself therefore terrorism cannot be separated from the true Islam. Islam means submission and it demands from its followers to submit their wills and thoughts to Muhammad and his imaginary Allah. Allah is a deity that despises reason, democracy, freedom of thought and freedom of expression.\n\nI reject Islam a) because of Muhammad’s lack of moral and ethical fortitude and b) because of the absurdities in the Quran.\n\na) Muhammad lived a less than holy life. His lust for sex, his affairs with his maids and slave girls, his pedophilic relationship at age 54 with Aisha, a 9-year-old child, his killing sprees, his massacre and the genocide of the Jews, his slave making and trading, his assassination of his opponents, his raids and lootings of the merchant caravans and unarmed villagers, his burning of trees, his destroying the water wells, his cursing and invoking evil on his enemies, his revenge on his captured prisoners of war, his torturing of his captives to for greed and his hallucinations such as believing of having sex with his wives when he actually did not, disqualify him as a sane person let alone a messenger of God.\n\nb) An unbiased study of the Quran shows that far from being a “miracle”, that book is a hoax. The Quran is replete with scientific heresies, historic blunders, mathematical mistakes, logical absurdities, grammatical errors and ethical fallacies. Could possibly the author of this Universe be as ignorant as it appears to be in the Quran?

The "Muslims" you speak of, are a vast MINORITY of their religion.  The fact of the matter is, is that 80% (maybe even more) of Islamic believers are peace loving.  \n\nKeep in mind as well, that Christians have also killed people because 'God told them to'.  Have you ever heard of the Crusades?
