270 million dead Africans because of Islamic Arab Racism: Islam's Greatest Taboo

Submitted by No Blinkers (Canada), Oct 14, 2008 at 22:50

Dear Mr. Hussain,

Truth is not important in an Islamic dictatorship, is it? They control information. That is my point. No one was concerned whether or not it was true that black Africans were made by Allah so that "the Arabs and the Turks could enslave them". They believed it, because they wanted to believe it. It justified the Islamic slave trade and made the slavers rich and the lives of Arab Moslems more convenient. So much for truth.

Islamic government is based on thought control and information control. The elite made all the decisions and kept the toiling masses poor and illiterate, just as they do today. An 80% illiteracy rate in the Moslem world.

However, today we live in an age of serious, ethical scholarship. One such scholar is Malek Cheleb, an Algerian anthropologist who spent several years studying the dark, cruelties of the Islamic slave trade that lasted 1400 years. He points out it is Islam's greatest taboo subject. Even today, Molsems like you don't want to 'fess up to the atrocities, all caused by Islam that cost 270 lives of black Africans. One of the greatest holocausts and atrocities of all history. It was caused by Islam.

You have nothing to add to this discussion but an unsupported insult. Calling your opponent a liar isn't debating and not very creative. Your debating skill is very disappointing and cruelly limited.
