KT, arabs hgave a strange way to twist reality to their benefit since inception. The Quran and Haddit are teaching them that trechery lies and any other means are right if it serves "allah" by their interpretation.

Muhammad permitted lying if it was in the interests of islam
The Qur’an explains this:

“Let not the believers take for friends or helpers unbelievers rather than believers - except by way of precaution (taqiyya), that ye may guard yourselves from them.

But Allah cautions you to remember Himself; for the final goal is to Allah.” (3:28)

“In the cause of Allah” is the qualifying concept.

“On the battlefield” (dealing with non-muslims) outwittings are necessary.

Hadrat Ali said that in the battlefield one could not observe the highest standard of truth as a muslim has been exhorted to do in matters of religion. For example in the battlefield one has to hide facts and outwit the enemy." (Hadith Sahih Muslim, Vol. 2, ft. #1446)

That is why WMD disarmament of Iraq is completely not understood in the arab world.

In Medina the warring Arab tribes submitted to Mohammed leadership and prophethood. The Jewish tribes rejected his claims of prophet and ridiculed his revelations. With most of the new arrivals from Mecca without work they needed to earn a living. Ghazu or caravan raiding was a way tribes would prevent one tribe from becoming to powerful. The Muslims in Medina began to rob the caravans heading toward Mecca. This is where the Muslim doctrine of Jihad was created.

and the concept of agreeing to terms only to breach the agreements later

Mecca begins to feel the economic impact of its trading losses and sees Mohammed power growing in the north. They reluctantly sign the 10 year Hudaybiah peace agreement with Mohammed and the Muslims in march 628. Muslims are allowed to return to Mecca and worship at the Kaba once a year. The people of Mecca would leave their city so the Muslim could come and worship.

Two years later, in January 630, Mohammed leads 10,000 warriors to Mecca and nullifies the treaty of Hudaybiah
because Muslims have been killed. The city submits to Mohammed and his warriors and accepts him as prophet. Mohammed goes to the Kaba and destroys the 360 idols in the structure. From Mecca, the “Muslims” wage Jihad on the surrounding cities forcing them to accept Islam as their religion and Mohammed as their prophet.
