Of course, we all know their religious obligation is to kill those who aren’t Muslim ...

Exactly!

Or, if not to kill, at least enslave and convert:

Having conquered the Middle East, Arabs placed these communities under a Dhimmi (see the book Dhimmi, by Bat Ye'Or) system of governance, where the communities were allowed to rule themselves as religious minorities (Christians, Jews and Zoroastrian). These communities had to pay a tax (called a Jizzya in Arabic) that was, in effect, a penalty for being non-Muslim, and that was typically 80% in times of tolerance and up to 150% in times of oppression. This tax forced many of these communities to convert to Islam, as it was designed to do.

From What Arab Civilization?

Just wait, this'll be coming to a country near you...
