Why Islam should have been stamped out from India in 1947

If you look at history, the one prime characteristic of Islam is want, want, and want. For this reason, Islam rapidly expanded from its Arab homeland covering almost all of the Northern half of Africa and various parts of Asia. I find it very repulsive that even today, when Islam still controls the majority of the land they have conquered over the past 1400 years, they still want more.

I find Islamic interests in India especially infuriating. Muslims have killed millions upon millions of Hindus over the past 1000 years. They still continue to do so today in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh. Not only this, Muslims have destroyed thousands of Hindu temples, building mosques on a good majority of them. The Muslim plague, which has only recently become a problem in the west, has sickened and weakened India for hundreds of years.

So let me make my message to Muslims clear: INDIA IS A HINDU COUNTRY AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE A HINDU COUNTRY!!! This direct statement unfortunately escapes the majority of Muslims who are so greedy that even though they control a good portion of the world's land (read: Africa, Middle East, Southeast Asia etc), they still want even more. For the love of God, we even gave them Pakistan and they still aren't happy. Today they want Kashmir (which they have absolutely no right to), tomorrow they will want Delhi, and in a few years they will want the southern tip of India. Simply speaking, there is no strategy of appeasement with the Muslims just as appeasement didn't work with Hitler in the 1930s.

Muslims will fight to the death over Israel, which is a comparatively small piece of land (in relation to the rest of the Arab world), claiming that the Jewish "invaders" displaced Palestinians. However, Muslims conveniently forget how they themselves conquered this very piece of land in the 600s A.D. and how Muslims have invaded and obliterated thousands of cultures over their 1400 years of destruction.

Let's face it; the religion of Islam is an inherently violent religion that has spread by the sword. I am not saying that all Muslims are bad people or that they all have such extreme views but a religion which fosters this much of hate in the world is certainly not helpful in any shape or form.

To conclude, I will list some of the "instructive verses" from the Holy Koran:

When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them. -Koran 8.12

So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. –Koran 9.5

Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection. Koran 9.29
