[The Age] July 14, 2005--A Melbourne Jewish group says it will use Victoria's anti-vilification laws unless a Brunswick group stops selling books that it says call for a "holy war"....Of chief concern, said the council, was Al Wala' wa'l Bara' (Love and Hate for Allah's Sake), by Muhammad Saeed al-Qahtani. It describes all non-Muslims as "the allies of Satan" who should be "trampled underfoot". "It is either Islam or death," says one chapter detailing why Muslims must not befriend Jews, Christians or non-Muslims."If it becomes clear that someone is at odds with Islam, then fight him. The (Jew or Christian) who insults the Prophet should be killed."
