"I have read the Quran but I didn't find any such violent things in it which you are talking about."
Let's say (hypothetically) even if the Quran was a Gandhi-ite paragon of pacifism, which it isn't, that still doesn't change what's happening today.
This is another argument along the lines of trying to absolve Islam of any atrocities people do in the name of it. Like I said before, at this point I don't give a shit if ISIS, Saudi Arabia or the Islamic Republic of Iran are accurate representations of what is in the Quran, or whether you consider them Islamic or un-Islamic. The bottom line is that, whatever the fuck else they are, they're mindless crazed savage regimes which are downright evil incarnate. If you're not prepared, from any angle, to oppose that form of theocracy, then you're a disgrace to human logic and morality whatever religion you do or don't adhere to.
We spend so much time these days trying to debate whether things are Islamic or un-Islamic. It's irrelevant either way, whether it's Islamic or un-Islamic it's still a fucking human rights disgrace.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
