'HOLOCAUST OF HINDUS DURING THE MUSLIM OCCUPATION OF INDIA' "The massacres perpetuated by Muslims in India are unparalleled in history, bigger than the Holocaust of the Jews by the Nazis; or the massacre of the Armenians by the Turks; more extensive even than the slaughter of the South American native populations by the invading Spanish and Portuguese." - Francois Gautier" " And why should they persecute and annihilate the non- Muslims? The Koran explains the point: "God has bought from the believers their selves and their possessions against the gift of paradise; they fight in the way of God; they kill, and are killed; that is a promise; binding on God.... And who fulfills his covenant truer than God? So rejoice in the bargain you have made with Him that is the mighty triumph..." (Repentance: 192) Jihad, as can be seen, is a covenant between Allah and the Muslims; the former offers paradise to the latter for killing and plundering the non-Muslims without having any moral qualm in return for Paradise. Obviously, according to Islamic theology the massacre of the fellow-beings and the plunder of their possession is an act of great righteousness because it attracts the highest reward - that is, paradise. The Quran justifies booty, the plunder of the infidels in the following words: "It is not for any prophet to have prisoners, until he make wide slaughter in land..... Eat of what you have taken as booty, it is lawful and good." (The Spoils: 65) groups.google.com
