"It is very clear that the killing of innocent people and of peaceful people have been declared illicit by Allah" - Yes, but his definitions of "innocent" and "peaceful" are those of Islam, not the free thinking secular world. Is a homosexual man innocent? While the secular world says yes, Islamic societies impose penalties for homosexual behavior ranging from fines and incarceration to torture and execution by various cruel methods.
