Issa Muhammed Moussa - Classical case of the thief accusing the cop of robbery.

Banu Quraiza was attacked because they were Jews and they did not support the quraish tribe when it attacked Medina. They were not warriors but artisans and businessmen who belonged to the Jewish Al-nadhir tribe. Otherwise there is no evidence that they persecuted Mohammed or his gang, it a deliberate attempt to mislead us.

You said "They used to through dead animals parts while prophet and his followers praying in Masjid. They stolen their cattles and killed them and finally they forced them to leave Mecca" Sounds more like a political hate speech. It was the pagan Arabs who forced Mohammed and his followers out Mecca, not the Jews of Banu Quraiza as you wrongly claim. Give me the relevant ayas or hadiths that tell that the people of Banu Quraiza did this.

You ask "Now tell me he should leave them or punish them?" They did not start the war. They had surrendered after two weeks of seige by moslems without killing a single moslem. What would you have done ? Do you mean that Bosnian Serbs were doing the thing right in Foca ? Do you think the Israelis should do the same to the Palestinians today. Believe me there are passages in Deutronomy that can justify something similar to this, only that nobody is insane enough to follow that. What punishment are you talking about ? Killing all men including boys who have grown pubic hair ? Raping their wives and daughters ? Rahyana bint Zaid was "married" the same night by Mohammed the same night her father and husband were beheaded by mohammed and co, and consumated his marriage.. aka raped ..on the terrified Rahyana. She chose to be a lowly concubine instead of converting from Judaism to Islam till her death. Men were simply killed because they refused to convert from Judaism to Islam. Initially mohammed had tried unsuccessfully to win over the jews and make them accept him as a prophet by celebrating the jewish passovers and observing their fasts. Note that Judaism does not have the concept of Takkiyah.

Later mohammed had signed a ten year no war treaty (Hudaibia) with Meccans then two years later sneaked up on them with thousands of jehadis and attacked.It was he who broke treaty and attacked Mecca . He was the first one to break a tenet of the treaty by not returning Meccan women. They were instead gang raped and sold off. Of course he convinced his fool hardy followers that Allah okayed it all. Quran confirms both.The late Yasser Arafat of PLO brought up Hudaybiya to tell his followers: "If Muhammad, the most respected man in all Islamic history—can make peace with his enemies, so can I"
