Quote:I can certainly quote you arguing that there was no evidence there was any treaty between Muhammad and the jews, and therefore they can't be accused of breaking it - as if that was somehow a significant point in your defense of the Qurayza.
You used the violation of the treaty as an excuse for Muhammad's genocide of the Jews. Obviously that makes the fact that they are not listed among the parties to the treaty relevant. You were wrong on several different levels Gandalf. That you were wrong for so many other reasons does not mean I should ignore this particular reason.
Quote:I refer you then to the 'duty of care to humanity' quote above. This suggests
In that case I refer you to what the quote actually says.
Quote:Basically, if the jews had a 'duty of care' to stop evil incarnate, aka Muhammad, why spend so long arguing the toss about whether or not the jews actually violated their treaty?
You lied about the treaty. You brought it up. You offered several different versions of why Muhammad's genocide of the Jews was the right thing to do. I discredited each one. I did this because you offered it as an excuse for genocide, not because I saw any particular merit in your argument.
Other than converting or dying, what legal rights did Muhammad extend to Pagans?
Did the Jews have the right to keep their head attached to their body?
When Muhammad first came into a position where he could get away with slaughtering people, and he celebrated by publicly threatening to slaughter the Medina Jews if they did not convert to Islam, was he defending their right to convert to Islam, or their right to die?
When Muslims say that Dhimmitude is against oppression, do they really mean only for those non-Muslims in a position to negotiate some rights for themselves, and only for so long as Muslims choose to honour their agreement? Should we take this behaviour as indicative of the broader approach that Muslims have to respecting human rights?
Do you think I am being unfair by cherry picking Muhammad's campaign of genocide and ethnic cleansing rather than focus on all the nice things he did?
How does the banning of pagans (and all non-Muslims) from their own Mecca for pagan ritual, and then the broader hejaz region, including Medina where they were supposedly protected by that constitution, fit in with your BS about pagans having rights?
How do Muhammad's campaigns to slaughter pagans and destroy pagan monuments and shrines fit in with your lies about pagans having rights?
And what about "tough titties, off with their heads"? Would you trust someone who said this about people they later insisted had rights?
After Muhammad concocted this constitution that supposedly granted the citizens of Medina freedom of religion, how long was it until he threatened the Jews of Medina with slaughter if they did not convert to Islam?
How long was it until he followed through with his threats and committed genocide?
How long was it until Muslims started blaming the Jews for their own demise with mindless collectives of treacherous Jews memes?
How long was it until pagans were banned from their own shrine in Mecca?
How long was it until pagans were banned from the city of Mecca?
How long was it until pagans were banned from the region of Hejaz, including Medina?
How long was it until Muhammad was launching raids to slaughter pagans and destroy competing pagan monuments and shrines?
How do you expect people to take you seriously when you claim Muhammad granted non-Muslims basic human rights such as freedom of religion?
Should people trust what Muslims say about human rights?
