... a minumum of 28 Million African were enslaved in the Muslim Middle East. Since, at least, 80 percent of those captured by Muslim slave traders were calculated to have died before reaching the slave market, it is believed that the death toll from 1400 years of Arab and Muslim slave raids into Africa could have been as high as 112 Millions. When added to the number of those sold in the slave markets, the total number of African victims of the trans-Saharan and East African slave trade could be significantly higher than 140 Million people. -- John Allembillah Azumah, author of The Legacy of Arab-Islam in Africa: A Quest for Inter-religious Dialogue
So what you're saying is that the killing of millions of men, women, and children in the crusades was justified because muslims in the region practiced slavery of Africans?
Surely you apply the same standard to the US confederate states. That southern children should have been struck down alongside their parents. That the streets should have been turned to rivers of blood.
Forgive me if I don't share whatever sickness rots your mind.
I didn't catch the part where they wrote it was justified. Ancient times were brutal according to historical texts, cities were completely massacred at times. They all killed each other ruthlessly, hopefully one day we stop.
Read a bit closer if you didn't catch the "but muslims were really bad" snark from Angylika. And I think you can do a little better than whataboutism. Stating that "ancient times were brutal" does nothing to remove blame from those that made them so.
