Bukhari Hadith No Muslim maybe Killed for Murdering an Infidel!

Sahih Bukhari
Volume 4, Book 52, Number 283:
Narrated Abu Juhaifa:
I asked Ali, "Do you have the knowledge of any Divine Inspiration besides what is in Allah's Book?" 'Ali replied, "No, by Him Who splits the grain of corn and creates the soul. I don't think we have such knowledge, but we have the ability of understanding which Allah may endow a person with, so that he may understand the Qur'an, and we have what is written in this paper as well." I asked, "What is written in this paper?" He replied, "(The regulations of) blood-money, the freeing of captives, and the judgment that no Muslim should be killed for killing an infidel."
Currently http://www.councilofexmuslims.com/index.php?topic=5616.0& a guy called al Hitar is overseeing the programme.

In 1985, when he was a criminal court judge in Sanaa, he passed a death sentence on two Muslims who had killed a Jew. Yemen's tiny Jewish minority was second-class citizens, and meting out such harsh punishment for murdering a Jew was until then unheard of.? I searched in the Qur'an, the Sunna [Muslim social customs and legal traditions], and the history of the caliphs. None of them differentiate between Muslims and non-Muslims. A soul is a soul."

His programme is not surprisingly largely unsuccessful, how is he going to reform with alternate explanations when he fails to even acknowledge that these sort of traditions exist? At most, he may deceive himself successfully that his faith doesn't discriminate, but if the unreformed terrorists use these texts as justification for their acts, how will he contradict them without acknowledging them first?
