"In the Moslem world slaves were considerably cheaper, far more widely available, and regarded as a dispensable commodity. They were effectively worked to death, and thus left no descendants."

This information should be repeated again and again to black Americans who seem to think Islam is a better choice for them and who hate Christian America for enslaving Africans in the past.

They should be repeatedly asked:

"Why is it descendants of blacks in the US now comprise 16% of the total American population after a mere three centuries of enslavement whereas one can't find ANY African descendants anywhere in the Middle East after 14 centuries of enslavement?"

The answer is chilling --- because the Arab Muslims CASTRATED their African slaves, preventing them from procreating.

Couple this with Islam's active support for slavery, and Mohammed's ownership of African slaves creates immense problems for American black Muslims. Face facts, Islam is definitely the worst thing to happen to Africans.

Would there be an African-American movement today if the early American Christians followed the Arabs in castrating their African slaves?

In 1983, the Arab-controlled government of Sudan instituted strict Islamic law in the entire country and subjected black Christians and other non-Moslems of the south in its decree. Then in 1992 a religious decree was ordered that gave justification to the military onslaught against non-Moslems. Since that time the United Nations and human rights groups have documented countless cases of slavery.

And the UN and other human rights groups have done what exactly about the Sudan? Oh, wait, they're too busy passing resolutions condemning Israel....

Truth bump. The Islamics far outdid the Europeans in the length and breath of their participation in the slave trade (continuing). Indeed, the Ottoman Empire routinely took slaves from the Slavic, Greek , Armenian Christian population which were dhimmis under them
