The Blaze

BlazeTV host Nick Freitas questions former President George W. Bush's statement that 'Islam is peace' after 9/11, citing Quran passages that appear to promote violence.

What happened

Nick Freitas, a host on BlazeTV, has revisited former President George W. Bush's statement that 'Islam is peace' made after the 9/11 attacks. Freitas questioned the accuracy of this statement by reading several passages from the Quran, including Surah 9:5, Surah 9:29, and Surah 47:4, which appear to promote violence against non-Muslims.

Freitas pointed out that these passages seem to contradict the idea that Islam is a religion of peace. He noted that according to these passages, non-Muslims can be allowed to survive if they convert to Islam, pay additional taxes, or are subdued.

Freitas' comments were made in the context of discussing the lessons learned from the 9/11 attacks and whether the country has been too afraid to criticize Islam due to fear of being seen as mean or intolerant.
