How can they say that when Islam means ( Submission ) and the Quran states 9:29
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
Does this sound peace-full to anyone?

The thing that people should know about Qur’aan is that :
Verses were revealed during the period of 2 decades…in response to a "certain" situation, or telling muslims about the next step…Especially in fighting situations…Actually we have Quraan that explain the situation of every verse…i do not have it with me right now, but the prophet never been on a battle unless the enemy starts it, so u will find a verse saying that: if the enemy wants peace, go for peace..
Ex:
the arabs in mecca, had a community where the alcohol drinking was a very strong Habit…so in the beginning of islam…verses came saying that alcohol has benefits and harm, but it harms more ….
then: u can not pray , if u are drunk…and with time passing, they started to limit it, until it came clear: alcohol is forbidden
i hope i made my point clear

If you are going to hold up every member of a religious group to every statement in their holy book, I suggest you re-read the bible.
If you then study the history and content of the Quran you will find it supports and aggrees with the vast majority of christian doctrine. Christians and Jews are ‘the People of the Book’ referred to in your passage.
It’s us athiests that need to worry about literalist christians as well as literalist muslims.
