Love Jihad or Romeo, Romeo What Religion art Thou? from Planck's Constant

A Muslim reader (Sandy) recently left this comment: "Muslims have never been to war to convert people, but only to protect their religion." Truly a fine sentiment. If she believes it, she is a complete dupe; if she does not, well, it's standard practice for Muslims to blatantly lie to the unbelievers. Chalk this up to another Islamic myth.

When non-Muslims invoke the phrase All's fair in love and war they really mean "All's fair in love or war," not both. However, since Muslims are always waging war with unbelievers, they are actually at war when they pretend to be in love. This activity is called Love Jihad or in some places Romeo Jihad and is waged by young Muslim boys targeting college-age girls belonging to non-Muslim communities for conversion to Islam by feigning love ¹.

If the girl cannot be converted in two weeks, the Muslim youth goes on to another girl. Once converted the girls can be used to carry out attacks. It is Taqiyya by love.

As we have seen, female converts to Islam readily take to becoming Jihadi Janes, as in the case of Colleen LaRose, who was born in Michigan and raised in Texas, and had no thoughts of killing infidels until she converted to Islam a few years ago.

I view any American who converts to Islam as mentally unstable and a potential threat. In fact, recent converts are even a greater threat than imported extremists since they look and act just like any patriotic American. I urge my readers who come upon a Myspace profile or a Facebook entry where a recent Muslim convert criticizes our role in Muslim countries or who writes anything against Israel, to report them to the FBI. Indeed, it was the vigilant action by the blog The Jawa Report that led to the arrest of Jihadi Jane ².

Wiki*, JihadJane plot
In the Colleen LaRose (JihadJane) plot, Jawa Report members who had been tracking her comments and movements, including her raising funds for Pakistani militants through Twitter, alerted U.S. authorities in July 2009. The FBI interviewed her on July 17, 2009, and arrested her on October 16, 2009, at Philadelphia International Airport as she returned from London, whereupon she confessed her role in an Islamist plot to kill a Swedish artist to FBI agents, according to two people close to the investigation.
