From Translating Jihad blog:
IslamOnline.net is listed as the 6th most popular Islamic website in the world. And yet, Western apologists of Islam assure us that the overwhelming majority of Muslims are peaceful, and that Islam rejects offensive jihad. (See Original Arabic here.)
Fighting Against Non-Muslims — Legitimacy and Rulings
islamonline.net, 8 Jan 2011
Q: When is it permissible to fight against non-Muslims, and when is it not permissible? Please elaborate.
Mufti: Dr. ‘Imad Mustafa, Professor of Fiqh and Its Origins, at the Universities of al-Azhar and Umm al-Qary
In the name of God, praise be to God, and prayers and peace be upon the prophet of God, etc.:
Fighting against non-Muslims is what is known in Islamic jurisprudence as Jihad in the path of God. Jihad is a prescribed duty in cases of aggression from the infidels against Muslims, for we must resist them, make jihad against them, and defend against them. This is according to the text of the Qur’an, for Almighty God has said: “Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. Allah does not like transgressors” (Qur’an 2:190). This type of jihad is known as defensive jihad, and it is a duty agreed to by all Islamic scholars and all who are wise, and is endorsed in our day by recognized international charters. However, the occupier and his associates have come to label this “terrorism.”
Then there is another type of fighting against the non-Muslims known as offensive jihad. Islamic scholars have differed on the issue of offensive jihad, which is to pursue the infidels into their own land without any aggression or assistance to him. Some scholars have gone as far to say that this jihad is illegitimate, while others have gone as far as to say that it is legitimate and even required.
However there can be no disagreement that offensive jihad is not totally prohibited, for two schools [of Islamic jurisprudence] have ruled that offensive jihad is permissible in order to secure Islam’s border, to extend God’s religion to people in cases where the governments do not allow it, such as the Pharaoh did with the children of Israel, and to remove every religion but Islam from the Arabian peninsula, and to save the captive and weak.

In case the sixth most popular Islamic site isn’t enough, Jihad Watch has another tiny minority alert, Pakistani TV: “Jihad is a great prayer, and is meant to spread the message of Allah and the rule of Islam”:
The rule of Islam — that is, Sharia…
“Discussion About the Concept of Jihad on Pakistani Television: ‘Other Prayers Can be Postponed… But Jihad Cannot be Deferred’; ‘Muhammad Said That a Person Who Dies Not Having Waged Jihad… Is Like One Who Died in a State of Hypocrisy‘; ‘It Has Been Stated Most Explicitly In The Koran… Fight Those Who Interfere With Establishing the Rule Of Allah; ‘Today, In Every Part of the World, Muslims are Being Forced to Wage Jihad in Their Own Defense,’” from MEMRI

Well, okay. Let them have their “offensive Jihad”. That way they can VERY quickly learn how destruvtively defensive those of us Amercans who still have some testosterone left can become!
Right !!! atleast some solid proof from islam. Puts paid to islamic lies, that jihad is defensive. Read between the lines. Quote,”jihad is permissible in order to secure Islam’s border, to extend God’s religion to people in cases where the governments do not allow it,.”Unquote.
Translation :- make the whole world islamic under shariah.
to extend God’s religion to people in cases where the governments do not allow it,.
In that casew —-> time to put churches synagogs and Hindu temples into SAUDI ARABIA and all ISLAMIC nations- only waythey will ever see any faith that does have a god and not a hateful perverse AAALLAh made up by MOhammed
ALLAH is a quack;Islam is a mental illness complete with esoteric -occultism which always always leads to irational behavior ;behavior which is guided by highly distorted rhetoric and ritual abuse;in short;ISLAM IS SATANISM JUST LIKE ALL RELIGIONS EXCEPTING THE RELIGION OF TRUTH.TRUTH is the enemy of all false religion.Deception is the way of nature to control all things great and small in order to regulate all organic and in-organic substance.The flower looks so pretty;smells so WONDERFUL;but that stimulus has an under-lying purpose;to attract the bee and other insects.it’s all about science.true science proves things;things that are proved 100% become TRUTH.The true god IS TRUTH.Allah is a god of lies ;like all dogmatic religions.Islam continues the TRADITION OF mental illness and spiritual submission..after all;ISLAM MEANS”’S.U.B.M.I.T.Islam means;submit to that which is not truth ;Islam and all religion of dogma is proved by its fruits;Islam has many relatives;especially originating in the SMELTING pot of Meso-potamia.The dinosaurs froze to death;is it happening again?
Gotta love. That jihad ! Let’s hear it for that ole time religion. Feel the love !
This reminds me of what the US had to do with the national state religion of Japan after WWII. We had to occupy Japan and mandate laws that defanged the martial quality of the state religion and emperor worship. Now Japan is one of the greatest nations in the world.
You are right. I did some research and found your theses to be correct. US did enforce separation of church (shinto) and state in japan after WWII. Japan defanged IS one of the greatest nations in the world.
If only we could do it to all muslim countries.

That pretty much sums up the current war declared on kuffar(non-muslims) world wide.
