I encourage you to watch the full interviews as a foundation of all matters concerned and mentioned herein.

Senator Graham Said:

"In terms of foreign policy, I have been more right than wrong in the last 3 years. I have never been more worried about my country than I am today.  In Terms of radical Islam. and Yes, it is radical Islam. People in Iowa understood, radical Islam is the source of the problem here. They have adopted a theory of religion that is 1000 years old. That requires a worldwide Caliph. That will purify the Islamic religion. Kill or convert every Christian and Jew and vegetarian in their way.  And they are not going to stop unless somebody stops them. We need to get this right."
 
[ Sign off of interview by Anchor ] "Senator Graham, see you on the trail."

Mr Senator Graham,

There is absolutely no "linage of Islam" of a 1000 year old doctrine that provides the basis of your answer. The term of Lineage is important to understand this is the only way you can justify making your statement.

Please see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrahamic_religions

All the major Abrahamic religions claim a direct lineage to Abraham:

Also contained in this article is a mention of Islam:

Islam

Islam is based on the teachings of the Quran. Although it considers Muhammad to be the Seal of the prophets, Islam teaches that every prophet preached Islam, providing a historical back-story for the religion by independently recognizing Jewish and Christian prophets, and adding others. The teachings of Quran are presented as the direct revelation and words of Allah, and earlier scriptures are considered to have been corrupted over time. Islam (meaning "submission", in the sense of submission to Allah) is universal (membership is open to anyone); like Judaism, it has a strictly unitary conception of Allah, called tawhid, or "strict" or "simple" monotheism.[49] Early disputes over who would lead Muslims following the death of Muhammad led to a split between Sunni and Shia, Islam's two main denominations.

Sunni refers to the sunnas, or oral traditions and interpretations of the Koran -- a body of work similar to the Jewish Talmud.  Sunnis believe that the position of Caliph should be a position to which one is elected by the religious leaders of the Islamic community, and not dependent on direct lineage from Mohammed.

---

"Direct Lineage" is where we define religious doctrine is valid from its source or not. And when it is not, it has no valid religious foundation to form a principle foundation to hold merit and virtue and honor to.

It in fact loses it's "Islam" definition and creates a new religion not founded by the source.  In this case, Islam and the Quran.

If you cannot hold this fact when you speak in interviews, then you are absolutely need correction of your errors and wrongs that you continue to propagate to the public.

I further wish to correct your continued inclusion of the use of Islam as Radical Islam.  If you want to hold your stance and be more specific, you could say, Radical Sunnis instead but that just leads to more confusion.  Why don't you just accept the current US Administration's position to remove the Islam from the identity all together.  It would be most appreciative to the facts.

I have some supporting documents regarding the Islam religion doctrine Lineage of the Quran:

Excerpt:

Islam

Islam, a name given by Allah to this religion (Quran 5:4), is an Arabic word which literally means obedience and peace. ISLAM is derived from the Arabic root "SALEMA": peace, purity, submission and obedience. So 'Islam' would mean the path of those who are obedient to Allah and who establish peace with Him and His creatures. Its follower are called Muslims.

Islam is not a new religion. It is, in essence, the same message and guidance which Allah revealed to all prophets before Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. Allah says in the Qur’ân:

"Say, `We believe in ALLAH and that which has been revealed to us, and that which was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and in that which was given to Moses and Jesus and other Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them and to HIM we submit." (Qur’ân 3-85)

THE PHILOSOPHY OF PUNISHMENTS
IN ISLAM
SPEECH BY
DR. IFTIKHAR AHMAD AYAZ, O.B.E.
JALSA SALANA UK
26th
JULY 2009

Introduction Excerpt:

The world today presents a horrific scenario of crime, violence, killing and a determined
attempt to destroy the very pillars of social order which sustain peace, tolerance, harmony
and human dignity. The lives of millions around the world have been ruined and they are
going through an unbearable syndrome of traumatic suffering and ruthless devastation.
The evil deployment of modern technology has given rise to a global institution of a
criminal order which is the most critical challenge of the world today.
The world is dearly searching for ways to combat, control and check the raging storm of
crime, and that makes it all the more pertinent to present this subject, the
Philosophy of
Punishments in Islam
.
The translation of the verse of the Holy Quran which I have just recited is:
“These are the limits set by Allah, so approach them not. Thus, does Allah make His
commandments clear to men so that they may become secure against evil.” (2:188)
According to Muslim perception, Islam is not only a religion but also a civilization and
social order based upon revealed principles. Islam stands out distinctly among the
religions of the world in that its punishment and retribution laws are applied under
exclusive rules and regulations, dealing with matters related to obligations to Allah and
obligations to human kind.
Under no circumstances has man the right to punish anyone for non-compliance with the
obligations to Allah. So as a result of this distinction, Islam totally liberated man’s
obligations to worship from human intervention and interfere

I would like to now conclude here with my own propagation mission of some words to live by written by Rev. Edward Young, of Christian faith, written from 1742 to 1745 in the titled work, "The Complaint or Nights Thoughts on Life, Death, and Immortality."

WordsToLiveBy

Art thou dejected?
Is thy mind o'ercast?
To chase thy gloom,
Go fix some weighty truth;
Chain down some passion; do some generous good;
Teach Ignorance to see, or Grief to smile;
Correct thy friend; befriend thy greatest foe;
Be just in all things; make amends
For follies past, and, with warm heart,
Forgive, and be forgiven. Let work not words
Thy virtue prove. Go act as well as prate,
And then thy counsels will be strong,
Thy reprimands avail. —ANON

THE province of the historian is to gather the threads of the past ere they elude forever his grasp and weave them into a harmonious web to which the art preservative may give immortality. Therefore he who would rescue from fast gathering oblivion the deeds of a community and send them on to futurity in an imperishable record should deliver a plain unvarnished tale.[1][2]

Published in poem "Blank Verse" form from 1742 to 1745 by Rev. Edward Young.[3] These words then appear future time forward in many publications in transverse and slightly modified forms. This includes the publication that I find most relevant in today's modern era technological world.[4] This above quote of Young's work is found in a history book that has removed any religious references and then has been credited to source anonymous. Then proceeds to describe in the following above paragraph the intent of virtue/integrity/morality of the authors upon the entire published history. [ Read On From Linking to Book Source ]. There is a very important ideal said of immortality that should be highly considered in the modern day application of these words.
