Let's write to Congress (www.congress.org):
Dear Representative:
Using semantics in tagiyya is nothing new. It is why "true" Muslims are encouraged to memorize the Quran in Arabic. In Arabic the Quran is much more violent. For example, the exhortation to "smite" their (non-Muslim's) necks which has been explained as being symbolic, in Arabic it literally says to hack at their necks with an axe (which Muhammad himself did in beheading non-Muslims).
Ahmadinejad's ambition is to retake back the lands (once conquered) for Islam (Israel) and/or provoke the U.S to attack and bring about the political Mahdi, who will unite Muslims in the global jihad. To do that, he would have to wipe out the Jewish population in Israel. Squabbling about how he intends to do that is just distraction. Please take the threat seriously.
