They may be prominent in their own countries (actualy I think al of them come from a single country, Afghanistan). That doesn't mean they were not genocidal maniacs. They killed millions (mostly civilians) and raped and looted. No civilized person can condone that. Their country is repaying a...

A very good post. I would like to however ask you to find holes in the facts of the OP rather than just dismissing it as an "extremist site"! I think we should be mature enough to discuss the historical facts in their proper context. The brutalities did happen and the current Indian Muslims...

True. No one should associate the barbaric acts with present day Indian Muslims. On the flip side, no Indian or any Muslims should defend the acts. I know Pakistanis call these people their heroes and they are the biggest fools as they were the biggest victims, just that they live in denial of...

Well, rate of population increase used to be small earlier (it increased in the 20th century due to better medical facilities). The 80 millions figure is supposed to be across several centuries. Entirely plausible. The Mongols killed several tens of millions in Central Asia and Arabia and...

Yousuf, you know that historical facts don't agree with what you mention here. Persia, Egypt, Spain, India or so many other countries didn't attack Muslims. It was the reverse. And those invasions were brutal. Genocides, rapes, slave taking, booty were common. And it was all done in the name...

Yes. The Arabs never made much gains in India except Sindh. The Turks were brutal and genocidal and converted millions and millions and killed another whole lot of millions. The accepted toll is 80 million murdered in undivided India.

Well, this is from the "stroy of civilization" by Will Durant. I don't have an online link but have a soft copy. I can send you by mail if you want. All these are absolutely true facts, most of them recorded by Muslim historians of court with much glee. The book is a superbly researched one, a...

Again for those who think Alauddin Khilaji was even worth being called a human being. The usual policy of the Sultans was clearly sketched by Alau-d-din, who required his advisers to draw up "rules and regulations for grinding down the Hindus, and for depriving them of that wealth and property...

Not sure what definition of "benign" you have Singhji. Does the following constitute benign? These are all facts recorded by the Muslim historians themselves. Seeing the canonization that success had brought to this magnificent thief, other Moslem rulers profited by his example, though none...

I think there is no doubt that these invasions were exceedingly brutal and religious intolerance did play a large part in that brutality. Denying that is denying facts. The Muslim historians themselves have recorded these with much glee and as a symbol of the superiority of Islam. Of course...
