Get your facts straight.

Please first study or read how Muhammed (SAW) conquered Mecca and understand why historians call it the most peaceful conquest ever. The Prophet COMMANDED that no one should be harmed when he conquered Mecca although the people there had slaughtered his followers and plotted to kill him many times. Imagine such mercy...

Anyway, there's a lot more to the story than that and MANY other authentic stories of the Prophet that show his mercy and calmness in conditions that would drive others mad. So again, please get your facts right before making such outrageously ludicrous comments on the most influential man in the world (the guy was illiterate...)
