Amazing how you still refuse to quote the entire passage, FD. Tsk, tsk, why, are you afraid it shows what I said in a better light than you're willing to allow?

Historical accounts are littered with examples. That does not excuse it, however it explains why it happened. Which is more than you ever have in your attacks on Mohammed and Muslims in general. You're not interested in understanding, you just believe in condemnation. And what of Muslims who hold the person conducting the genocide to be the best example for all mankind to follow, including today? Does that make the genocide relevant today rather than a mere historical detail? To them, perhaps. To the rest of the world? I doubt it, FD. Remember, most Muslims are not hard-core, extremists. Most are rationale, thinking, normal human beings who just happen to worship Allah, which you seem to see as a personal insult to yourself and all the other Islamophobes. Quote:Was it customary to commit genocide against an enemy that surrendered without a fight? Ask the Israelites. They did it. Tsk, tsk. So Muhammad committed genocide because it was customary? Have you asked him, yourself, FD? I have no idea why he did it. I can however explain the reasons why he may have done it. Genocide wasn't considered immoral or a crime in Ancient and Medieval periods. I'd recommend you talk to Soren, perhaps he can explain why it happened because of someone's fascination with pooh or his mother...
