Really? So Muslims never had slaves? I guess all those women in harems were and are all there because they want it.
But the truth is Muslims always had slaves. Starting from Prophet Muhammad who himself bought, sold, captured, and owned slaves.
And when it comes to black slaves the Senegalese anthropologist and author Tidiane N’Diaye in his book LE GENOCIDE VOILÉ, 2008 wrote about the enslavement of Negroes by Arab-Muslims from the 7th to the 20th centuries and this is what he wrote:
Quote:“The slave trade of Negroes as practiced by the Western nations is well-known. However, it must be recognized that historically, this crime against humanity was an invention of the Arab-Muslim world. It was the Arabs, Berbers, Turks, and Persians, who originated this infamous practice long before the Europeans began the African slave trade. For one thousand years, they were trading in African people, from the 7th to the 16th centuries. They resumed the practice from the 19th to the 20th centuries, long after the Western nations had abolished this trade.
“The demographic stagnation, the misery, the poverty, and the lack of development in the Dark Continent, are not the only consequences of this commerce, as many people imagine. Actually, the Islamic slave trade in Africa amounted to a planned genocide of Black people. It was a programmed ‘ethnic extinction by castration.’ Thus, the majority of the 17 million Africans who were brought to the Arab-Muslim world and transformed into eunuchs have disappeared, leaving no descendents at all.
“We would like to underline both the early date, and the great dimension of this trans-Saharan traffic that took place in the Eastern world, and to give an account of these forgotten facts. No amount of willful and selective amnesia will ever succeed to cover up the historical fact about the ‘Veiled Genocide.’”

People in the Middle East get oppressed until some go insane and turn into terrorists.
Really? So throwing gays off rooftops is because of cold war? As well as raping of enslaving underage Yazidi girls, killing Turkmen Shias?
Except Muslims were like that even before cold war between the U.S and the Soviet Union, like I noted before by quoting what Thomas Jefferson wrote, but instead of repeating my post I'll just remind people that Muslims are in war with each other and others from the start and combat was part of Islam from its beginning. Even from the very own Muslim "holy family". The prophet Mohammed conquered Mecca by force. He fought in nine battles and ordered several others.
Then immediately after Mohammed's death in 632, successor caliphs launched a seemingly endless series of holy wars—first against apostate tribes who seceded when the prophet died, then against neighboring nations. Fanatical Bedou armies leaped out of Arabia onto the rest of the world. They rapidly conquered Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Egypt, and Persia. Then the holy war was pressed eastward to India and westward through North Africa and Spain, finally being halted in 732 in a decisive battle at Tours, France.
Meanwhile, Shiite followers of Mohammed's son-in-law Ali fought doomed wars against the Sunni majority. The Kharijis, a splinter of Shiites, fought savagely for centuries as puritanical terrorists until they became nearly extinct. The ultra-fanatical Azariqis decreed death to all ''sinners" and their families.
Or what about when in 1700's Mohammed al-Wahhab preached that Islam had been corrupted by worldly frills and must be cleansed by fire? He declared war on "the infidel fellow Muslims". After his death, his Wahhabi Bedou army conquered several cities in the early 1800s, massacring residents. This drew counterattacks by Turks and Egyptians, who drove the "heretics" into the desert, captured their leaders, and beheaded them.
After a century of bloodbath, Wahhabis rose again in the early 1900s as fanatical "brothers," conquering the peninsula and creating the modern kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
