There are a lot of regular misconceptions in the article.
Such as for example that eating pork or drinking alcohol is forbidden for Muslims. Yes it is technically not halal, but there's an Islamic principle of "darura" that mandates that "necessity is more important than obligation". And each Islamic deed may be postponed or not obeyed if necessary.
So if it's necessary to eat, pork can be eaten, if it's required to postpone prayer, it can be postponed etc. Mohammad himself postponed prayer and so on, therefore the principle of "darura" is entirely in line with the Islamic doctrine, as long as there's a justification for it.
This is important to know, understand, and use every time a follower of Islam demands special treatment, aka praying rooms, not touching alcohol, halal food, burkas etc. - if he imposes such special demands on a non-Islamic society, it's not out of obligation.
These are the mandated demands on the host civilization, and a manifestation of political Islam (superiority of Islam towards the host culture). In any sort of non-Islamic society, these demands should be categorically rejected.

Is unfortunately spot on. Whenever there is the combination of knowledge of the Islamic doctrine, obedience to the Islamic doctrine, and belief in the Islamic doctrine - Jihad (violent or non-violent) ensues, since it's the principal concept in Islam that made it successful in the first place. According to the doctrine of Islam, becoming a Jihadi, or financing Jihad, in order to spread and strengthen Islam, are the highest perks in Islam.
