“Lo Tirtzach” (You shall not Murder)
– The Ten Commandments.
Yes, I think it bears reminding after this latest outrage in Iraq, that the terrorists who think they are doing G-d’s will are in fact going against the very fundamental principles laid down by G-d.
By the way, notice how the commandment is “You shall not Murder” and not the popular (but mistranslated) “You shall not Kill.” Murder is murder, but killing is permitted only if it is done in the context of self-defence, or to prevent someone from murdering someone else.
