Islam and Peace

We have heard in the Western media that Islam means peace. Therefore it has been deduced that Islam is a peaceful religion which has been hijacked by a few radicalists. While a derivative of the word "Islam" does mean peace the central meaning of Islam actually means submission. Islam is a religion of submission of the whole person to Allah. In a video tape released today, 9/11, a Muslim threatening Los Angeles and Melbourne, Australia says the following: "We are Muslims. We love peace, but peace on our terms, peace as laid down by Islam, not the so-called peace of occupiers and dictators." The Islamic notion of peace is submission of all to Islam. At least this is what the so-called "radicalists" are saying...
