Reply to Ianus-Going Greek

I never said I had any issue with the use of Greek fire. I was thinking more of genocides by the Japanese Empire, the Nazis, The Maoists, the Stalinists, etc...

As far as Muslim barbarity I recall certain Christian crusaders sacking their fellow Christians at Constantinople as well as massacering both Muslims and Jews in Jerusalem. The Muslim rule over Jerusalem wasn't nearly as barbaric back then as was Christian rule before it. I also by the way am not applying "moral" weapons. I am talking about understanding how to manipulate and control the path of an entire religion.
