As much as I hate to give States' ammunition on this topic (
)...religiously, Muslims are not supposed to enslave other Muslims - or other 'People of the Book' (i.e., Christians and Jews), I think. Historically, that was violated
very early on in the Caliphate. There is a ton of hypocrisy in the history of Muslim regimes...
...as there was in the history of the regimes of Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, etc. Political power does tend to corrupt religious faith, of all kinds.
The point I was agreeing with was that,
even by the standards of the Koran itself, the Islamic world has failed to live up to those standards, on a massive scale. They are very, very, far from where they should be...although it would be nice if they would stop blaming 'the West' for their own failings.
