Large scale slavery came to Africa on the same time and scale that Islam came to Africa. Before the Portuguese started trading slaves, many of the people which Islam conquered either became converts and slave traders themselves (as Obama's ancestors) or wound up dead.

This statement doesn't in any way justify slavery, but merely states the facts.

***We have suffered for centuries ***
***They have destroyed our civilizations***
***raided our lands for booty and slaves for centuries***
***no one talks about that***

That’s not true, we talk about it

We wonder how is it during all those centuries you have never been able or willing to help yourselves out of your suffering.

***and there is no help coming***

During all those centuries the WEST has developed
a CIVILIZATION that can help.

So, how many of our solidiers do you require?

Ten thousand? One hundred thousand?

How many of us from the WEST do you require to die to ‘help’ you?

the irony is that we were actually the first Christians, from Egypt to Nubia to Ethiopia (including Eritrea), before the West even knew anything that was Christian.

Not exactly. Many Ethiopians believe their's was the first Christian state, but they're wrong.

The first Christian state was Armenia, in 301. Ethiopia became a Christian state probably sometime around 340.

Anywho, the notion that "the West" knew nothing about Christianity before 300 or so is just ignorant and stupidly ethnocentric.

And people say Islam can't adapt to the modern world.

The line I found most interesting is about the forced conversion to Islam. Even the ones who converted can never be Muslim enough. Food for thought there, lefty libtards!

We mentioned Muslim slavery and savagery to blacks many times on this forum.
Libtards of all stripes seem to just shrug it off.
