That India is not the "West" is irrelevant.

Hindus are far far closer to the Islamic concept of infidels than Westerners who are predominantly Christian and therefore a recognized and protected people ("People of Book).

So far from being able to dodge the issue by appeal to geography, there is an even stronger case to be made:

WHY DID THE MUSLIMS NOT GO ON A KILLING RAMPAGE OF HINDUS WHO ACCORDING TO ISLAM ARE BELIEVERS IN FALSE GODS?

If you can't make your case for that, then you are so much worse off trying to make the case they Muslims want to kill followers of a recognized religion, namely Christians.

Fortunately, 1500 years ago, Mohammed was limited how far he could travel on a horse.

Dude, I think you mean camel.....

"Mohammed having a nuke is no different than Iran having a nuke."

Would Jesus have a nuke? No? Then I guess God is not on the side of the USA since they have nukes. Answer me, would Jesus have nukes?

Most so called Christians seem to think its OK for the USA to have them and to take over the world. There are no worse hypocrites in the name of God than Christians

Nonsense. Christians have killed many more people than Muslims have although blood thirstiness is certainly available in all religions.

I suspect atheists kill fewer people, percentage-wise, than religious ones do....that should say something. God is not pleased.
