Islam and Warfare

Muhammad is reported to have said that war is deceit:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "Khosrau will be ruined, and
there will be no Khosrau after him, and Caesar will
surely be ruined and there will be no Caesar after him, and you will spend
their treasures in Allah's Cause." He called, "War is deceit". (Sahih al-Bukhari,
Volume 4, Book 52, Number
267)
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet said, "War is deceit." (Sahih
al-Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number
269)
This basically means that Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") can use lies and deception when they feel that they are in war against the unbelievers.
My response:
What an unbelievable interpretation you made from this statement that war
is deceit. I don’t know how you get such ideas.

There is no greater proof for this than what we find in the Quran.
For example, the Quran permits Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") to accept a peace treaty from the unbelievers whom they are fighting:
But if they incline to peace, you also incline to it, and (put your) trust in God. Verily, He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower. S. 8:61
My response:
The "reason to fear treachery" must not, of course, be based on
mere surmise but on clear, objective evidence (Tabari, Baghawi, Razi;
also Mandr X, 58).
Sam Sgamoun then goes on to give more verses
and commentaries similar to the one given above. They have not been listed as
the point is made but then he quotes a verse to make an allegation which is
listed below.

This is expressly contradicted by the following text:
So be not weak and ask not for peace (from the enemies of Islâm), while you are having the upper hand. God is with you, and will never decrease the reward of your good deeds. S. 47:35 Hilali-Khan
My response:
Shamoun criticizes that the Quran says
to not have peace when you are winning.
I think that Shamoun needs to learn some
English before making such comments. The verse above orders the Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") to not ask for peace and the previous verses talked about the
enemies asking for peace.
47:35
The remaining article of Shamoun is a total
waste of time as he shows that he lacks basic English
skills. He cannot differentiate between them asking for peace and the believers
asking for peace.
