The Greatest
Murder Machine in History
By Mike Konrad
When one thinks of mass murder, Hitler comes to mind. If not Hitler,
then Tojo, Stalin, or Mao. Credit is given to the 20th-century
totalitarians as the worst species of tyranny to have ever arisen.
However, the alarming truth is that Islam has killed more than any of
these, and may surpass all of them combined in numbers and cruelty.
The enormity of the slaughters of the "religion of peace" are so far
beyond comprehension that even honest historians overlook the scale.
When one looks beyond our myopic focus, Islam is the greatest killing
machine in the history of mankind, bar none.
The Islamic conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in
history. -- Will Durant, as quoted on Daniel Pipes site.
Conservative estimates place the number at 80 million dead Indians.
According to some calculations, the Indian (subcontinent)
population decreased by 80 million between 1000 (conquest of
Afghanistan) and 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate). -- Koenrad Elst as
quoted on Daniel Pipes site
80 Million?! The conquistadors' crimes pale into insignificance at that
number. No wonder Hitler admired Islam as a fighting religion. He stood
in awe of Islam, whose butchery even he did not surpass.
Over 110 Million Blacks were killed by Islam.
... 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
Add just those two numbers alone together, and Islam has surpassed the
victims of 20th-century totalitarianism. However, it does not end
there. Add the millions who died at the hand of Muslims in the Sudan in
our lifetime.
Much of Islamic slavery was sexual in nature, with a preference for
women. Those men who were captured were castrated. The mulatto children
of the women were often killed, which explains why Islam was not
demographically shifted towards the black race, unlike slaves in the
West, who bore children to breed a mestizo class. Add in those dead
children; and we arrive at well over 200 million.
Remember that in the 7th century, North Africa was almost totally
Christian. What happened to them?
By the year 750, a hundred years after the conquest of Jerusalem,
at least 50 percent of the world's Christians found themselves under
Muslim hegemony… Today there is no indigenous Christianity in the
region [of Northwest Africa], no communities of Christians whose
history can be traced to antiquity.-- "Christianity Face to Face with
Islam," CERC
What happened to those Christian millions? Some converted. The rest?
Lost to history.
We know that over 1 million Europeans were enslaved by Barbary Pirates.
How many died is anybody's guess.
...for the 250 years between 1530 and 1780, the figure could easily
have been as high as 1,250,000 - BBC
In the Middle Ages…
…many slaves were passed through Armenia and were castrated there
to fill the Muslim demand for eunuchs. -- Slavery in Early Medieval
Europe.
The same practice ran through Islamic Spain. North Europeans captured
from raids up to Iceland, or purchased, were butchered in the
castratoriums of Iberia. Many died from the operations that ran for
centuries.
The number of dead from the Muslim conquest of the Balkans and Southern
Italy is unknown, but again the numbers add up, surely into the
millions over the centuries. Don't forget the 1.5 million Armenian
Christians killed by the Turks during WWI. We do know that over five
centuries, vast numbers of Christian boys were kidnapped to become
Islamic Janissary mercenaries for the Turks. Add those in, too.
Muslims prized blonde women for their harems; and so enslaved Slavic
women were purchased in the bazaars of the Crimean Caliphate. In Muslim
Spain, an annual tribute of 100 Visigothic [blonde] women was required
from Spain's Cantabrian coast.
For decades, 100 virgins per year were required by the Muslim
rulers of Spain from the conquered population. The tribute was only
stopped when the Spaniards began fighting back -- Jihad: Islam's 1,300
Year War Against Western Civilisation
Add in the death toll from the Reconquista and the numbers climb
higher.
Research has shown that the Dark Ages were not caused by the Goths, who
eventually assimilated and Christianized:
…the real destroyers of classical civilization were the Muslims. It
was the Arab Invasions... which broke the unity of the Mediterranean
world and turned the Middle Sea -- previously one of the world’s most
important trading highways -- into a battleground. It was only after
the appearance of Islam... that the cities of the West, which depended
upon the Mediterranean trade for their survival, began to die. -- Islam
Caused the Dark Ages
Add in those unknown millions who died as a consequence.
How many know the horrors of the conquest of Malaysia? The Buddhists of
Thailand and Malaysia were slaughtered en masse.
When attacked and massacred by the Muslims, the Buddhists initially
did not make any attempt to escape from their murderers. They accepted
death with an air of fatalism and destiny. And hence they are not
around today to tell their story. – History of Jihad.org
We may never know the numbers of dead.
After Muslims came to power in the early 15th century, animist hill
peoples eventually disappeared due to their enslavement and
‘incorporation’ into the Muslim population of Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo,
and Java via raids, tribute and purchase, especially of children. Java
was the largest exporter of slaves around 1500. -- Islam Monitor
In the same manner, Islam arrived in the Philippines. Only the
appearance of the Spanish stopped a total collapse, and confined Islam
to the southern islands.
The coming of the Spanish saved the Philippines from Islam, except
for the Southern tip where the population had been converted to
Islam.-- History of Jihad.org
Again, the number of dead is unknown; but add them to the total.
The animist Filipinos were eager to ally with the Spanish against
Islam. In fact, much of Southeast Asia welcomed the Spanish and
Portuguese as preferable to Islam.
...from the 17th century successive Thai kings allied themselves
with the seafaring Western powers – the Portuguese and the Dutch and
succeeded in staving off the threat of Islam from the Muslim Malays and
their Arab overlords.-- History of Jihad.org
A few galleons and muskets were not enough to conquer Asia. Islam had
made the Europeans initially appear as liberators; and to a certain
extent they were. Who were the real imperialists?
Even today...
...Malaysian Jihadis are plotting to transform multi-ethnic
Malaysia into an Islamic Caliphate, and fomenting trouble in Southern
Thailand.-- History of Jihad.org
Add this all up. The African victims. The Indian victims. The European
victims. Add in the Armenian genocide. Then add in the lesser known,
but no doubt quite large number of victims of Eastern Asia. Add in the
jihad committed by Muslims against China, which was invaded in 651 AD.
Add in the Crimean Khanate predations on the Slavs, especially their
women.
Though the numbers are not clear, what is obvious is that Islam is the
greatest murder machine in history bar none, possibly exceeding 250
million dead. Possibly one-third to one-half or more of all those
killed by war or slavery in history can be traced to Islam; and this is
just a cursory examination.
Now consider the over 125 Million women today who have been genitally
mutilated for Islamic honor's sake. In spite of what apologists tell
you, the practice is almost totally confined to Islamic areas.
New information from Iraqi Kurdistan raises the possibility that
the problem is more prevalent in the Middle East than previously
believed and that FGM is far more tied to religion than many Western
academics and activists admit. – “Is Female Genital Mutilation an
Islamic Problem?” ME Quarterly
Once thought concentrated in Africa, FGM has now been discovered to be
common wherever Islam is found.
There are indications that FGM might be a phenomenon of epidemic
proportions in the Arab Middle East. Hosken, for instance, notes that
traditionally all women in the Persian Gulf region were mutilated. Arab
governments refuse to address the problem. -- "Is Female Genital
Mutilation an Islamic Problem?" ME Quarterly
Remember that this has gone on for 1400 years; and was imposed on a
population that had been formerly Christian or pagan.
FGM is practiced on large scale in Islamic Indonesia; and is increasing.
...far from scaling down, the problem of FGM in Indonesia has
escalated sharply. The mass ceremonies in Bandung have grown bigger and
more popular every year. -- Guardian
The horrified British author of that Guardian article is still deluded
that Islam does not support FGM, when in fact it is now settled that
FGM is a core Islamic practice. Islamic women have been brainwashed to
support their own abuse.
Abu Sahlieh further cited Muhammad as saying, "Circumcision is a
sunna (tradition) for the men and makruma (honorable deed) for the
women." -- “Is Female Genital Mutilation an Islamic Problem?” ME
Quarterly
What other tyranny does this? Not even the Nazis mutilated their own
women!
Unlike the 20th-century totalitarians whose killing fury consumed
themselves, reducing their longevity, Islam paces itself. In the end,
though slower, Islam has killed and tortured far more than any other
creed, religious or secular. Unlike secular tyranny, Islam, by virtue
of its polygamy and sexual predations, reproduces itself and
increases.
Other tyrannies are furious infections, which burn hot, but are soon
overcome. Islam is a slow terminal cancer, which metastasizes, and
takes over. It never retreats. Its methods are more insidious, often
imperceptible at first, driven by demographics. Like cancer, excision
may be the only cure.
So whenever you read about this or that Israeli outrage -- and there
may be truth to the complaint -- place the news in context. Look whom
the Israelis are fighting against. Islam is like nothing else in
history.
Sidenote by Sharon Brunner: Stephen Quayle in Angel Wars: Past, Present, and Future includes information on page 208 about the amount of people killed by the Muslims. It is something that I was not aware of until I read Quayle's book. I find it astounding that a religion supposedly based on peace has such a violent history. The Islam appear to me as lions in sheeps' clothing. They have an amazingly morbid and violent past which appears to be continuing into the present and possibly the future.

Thanks for sharing this horrific information, it was something I wasn't aware of either!
