Dr Pipes,

The early Islamic empire might have been "opulent" but it was at a great cost to its victims and there were plenty of them

Patricia Crone, in her book "Meccan Trade and the rise of Islam" makes it very clear that the reason for the Arab invasions (called conquests by Muslim apologists and Western Islamophiles): "In Short, Muhammad had to concur his followers like to concur and his deity told him to concur do we need anymore?"

In the case of India it was a nightmare for those regarded by the Muslim invaders, the likes of the murderer Mahmud of Ghazni, as Mushrikeen (polytheists) in particular the Hindus! Millions of Hindus were murdered, enslaved and raped. Their temples were desecrated and many converted to mosques. The Buddhist library at Nalanda was destroyed and its books destroyed. And still we read about the "opulent" so called "Muslim empire"

Compare the Muslim invasion of India, and the catastrophic outcome to the people of India, with the Spanish invasion of the Americas and the catastrophic outcome to the native peoples of the Americas. However, no sane person would celebrate the Spanish invasion of the Americas or Hernan Cortes. Compare it with Muslim India and Pakistan where the murderer Mahmud of Ghazni is celebrated as a hero.

How many Indians were murdered during the coarse of the Muslim invasions of India and during the Muslim rulers of India? It is has been estimated by scholars of Indian history to be in the millions.

However, the attempts at the sinister Arabization of India failed. And what we have now are millions of Muslims in India that pray to an Arabian god in a language that they cannot read speak or write.

Back to Wahhaj: You will notice that most of his audience are from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Do they care about their ancestors the Hindus that must have suffered before converting to the religion of the Arabs? I doubt it very much.

Islam is the imperialism of the Arabs and the sinister Arabization of non Arabs.

Sorry, I have no respect for the imperialism of the Arabs and its "opulence"!
