Not to defend these guys because what they did was truly evil and they deserve worse than death for it but what they did is not unique to the Muslim world. Look at even recent history of WWII and you’ll see far worse was done by both the Germans and the Japanese on a scale that makes Beslan look like a ride in the park. This is just yet another example of humanity doing what humanity naturally does when freed of any restraints. Look at any nations history and you’ll find that they have done this and worse, including the US, Shermans march through the south is one good example, what the Mormon’s did in Utah to a wagon train going through their territory, the trail of tears, Waco the list goes on.

The difference is that Muslims, in the name of Islam, have been committing rape, torture, mass slaugher on huge scales, invasions, looting, and butchery of all descriptions for 1400 years, NONSTOP.

The butchery you describe has been sporadic, not as a way of life for more than 1000 years by an entire group of people. Why do you think there are so many Muslims?

Answer:

Because Muslims conquered other countries and THEN FORCED THE CONQUERED PEOPLES TO BECOME MUSLIMS.

It’s very simple.

They conquered Indonesia only between 1200 and 1400, from what I can tell. Indonsesia was a Hindu kingdom with many Buddhists, very tolerant towards other religions.
