The Infidels

Merriam-Webster defines infidel as "a person who does not believe in a religion that someone regards as the true religion" and continues to define it further as "one who is not a Christian or who opposes Christianity," [1] which is ironic since the Muslim extremists are the ones who are calling non-Muslims infidels.  Two other dictionaries concur.

Dictionary.com defines infidel as follows:
Religion.
  1. a person who does not accept a particular faith, especially Christianity.
  2. (in Christian use) an unbeliever, especially a Muslim.
  3. (in Muslim use) a person who does not accept the Islamic faith; kaffir. [2]
The first definition of infidel given by The Free Dictionary by Farlex is "[a]n unbeliever with respect to a particular religion, especially Christianity or Islam." [3]

If Muslims are infidels according to Christians and Christians are infidels according to Muslims, then the two sides will theoretically never see eye to eye but that is not true.  In Iraq, before Saddam Hussein was killed, and in Syria, before the Arab Spring, Christians and Muslims were living in peace.  Unfortunately, certain powerful, zealous leaders acted without knowledge [4] and wisdom and made a mess, bringing death and suffering to God's children to the delight of Satan.

They are the true infidels, religious hypocrites who practice religion for show, religion hijackers who pay lip-service to religion, unbelievers in God who do not act in accordance with the Will of God, power-hungry Satanites who are pawns of Satan, disasters of the human race who will bring disaster to the human race.

[4] "Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding."
