I agree .. this is really a monstrously serious problem.
The Life of Muhammad is a biography of the 'prophet' written by Edward Canon Sell, a Fellow of the University of Madras. The book was published in 1913 and can be downloaded as a free book (plus several others by the same author, on the subject of Islam.)
I read that book after the terrible events of 9/11 and it helped me to understand why the world would never be the same, ever again. Hence I recommend that everyone should read this book. The date of publication is important. There were NO excuses then. No OIL. No Middle East 'crisis' - just Islam doing what it does best... e.g., murder and destruction !!! The book contains countless original footnotes from ancient arabic sources. It is profoundly researched by a historian. Download it here:
