Furthermore there can be no question of genuine peace treaties with these nations; only truces, whose duration ought not, in principle, to exceed ten years, are authorized. But even such truces are precarious, inasmuch as they can, before they expire, be repudiated unilaterally should it appear more profitable for Islam to resume the conflict.

Few seconds I have before I jump in the car... No need to thank me, I enjoy hearing other opinions and reading and learning. This could have easily spun out of control due to the fact topics like this usually do, so it is nice to have a discussion without name calling and whatever else.
