Quote:Muhammad and Islam’s Sex Slaves

During Muhammad’s jihad on the Jews of Khaybar, he took for himself from among the spoils of war one young woman, a teenager, Safiya bint Huyay, after hearing of her beauty. (Earlier the prophet had bestowed her on another Muslim jihadi, but when rumor of her beauty reached him, the prophet reneged and took her for himself.)

Muhammad “married” Safiya hours after he had her husband, Kinana, tortured to death in order to reveal hidden treasure. And before this, the prophet’s jihadis slaughtered Safiya’s father and brothers.

... after the death of Muhammad, Safiya confessed that “Of all men, I hated the prophet the most—for he killed my husband, my brother, and my father,” before “marrying” (or, less euphemistically, raping) her.

So there it is. Muhammad seized for himself as rightfully earned booty (or ghanima) a young woman; he took her after killing everyone dear to her—husband, father, brothers, etc.

And, according to authoritative Islamic sources, she hated him for it.

If that is not rape, what is?

In fact, this incident is regularly cited by former Muslims as one of the greatest anecdotes that convinced them that Islam and Muhammad are not of God.

Nor, as expected, was Muhammad alone in this sort of rape. For example, Khalid bin Walid—the “Sword of Allah” and hero for aspiring jihadis around the world—raped another woman renowned for her beauty, Layla, right on the battlefield—but only after he severed her “apostate” husband’s head, lit it on fire, and cooked his dinner on it.

If this is how Muhammad—whom Koran 33:21 exhorts Muslims to emulate in all ways—behaved towards conquered female “infidels,” should there be any more surprise concerning the Islamic State’s behavior?

Yep, all religions are the same... beheadings, rape, torture ... just like Jesus and the Buddha did.

Muslims can deny that.
If you say that that is illogical and full of bullshit, you just defined religion

Truth is not the critical question. No, the critical question is whether the extremists have a plausible/convincing interpretation of Islam. And these stories or beheadings, rape, torture, and cooking your dinner on an apostate's head, do exist in Islam, unlike Christianity (New Testatment) or Buddhism. That means the extremist Muslims do have a plausible interpretation of Islam and that means a significant percentage of any Muslim population will be drawn to it.

Hence we have to minimise our interaction with Muslim populations (except for bombing the crap out of them if they threaten us or our allies), no matter whether the ISIS interpretation of Islam is "true Islam" or not.
