Regarding your edits to Jihad
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Peter Deer (talk) 01:34, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It is alright that you feel that there is some inaccuracies in the viewpoints expressed there. I sympathize entirely, I am quite familiar with the true nature of Jihad, and how it relates to a person's individual struggle against evil in their own hearts. I am also familiar with the terminology regarding the defense of an Islamic nation against aggression, and the laws of Islam prohibiting attacking or committing atrocities in war.
 * But regardless of this others have had (what I believe to be incorrect) interpretations of Jihad which they use as justification for violence. It is a notable and sadly a fairly widespread usage in this day and age. While it may not be a correct interpretation it is an interpretation notable enough to be commented upon and displayed in an encyclopedia without bias for or against it.
 * Also, I hope you will not find me rude in asking this, but is English your first language? If there are edits you would like to make I would not mind copyediting them for you to make them more suitable for the English wikipedia. Feel free to ask, I always like to help whenever I can.
