HISTORIANS TEND TO AGREE THAT THE CAPTURE OF WESTERN EUROPEAN TERRITORY BY THE ALLIES WAS MORE ABOUT POWER AND INFLUENCE THAN FREEING GERMANS FROM FASCISM, BROTHER! NATION STATES ARE ALWAYS LOOKING TO MAKE A LANDGRAB!
Then why today are Christians persecuted in Muslim majority countries all over the world? Where is the tolerance? From Africa, to the middle east, to Asia, Muslim majorities kill Christians.
There are Christian sects that abide by these principles friend. Those sects that truly broke from Roman traditions (some protestants) and influence follow the old testament as well as the new.
We really got off topic in this thread. Someone should create a Christian/Islam thread.

I beg to differ. The allies relinquished all of the territory they captured and gave complete autonomy, outside of The Soviet Union. It would not have been possible to decisively defeat Germany without crossing the Rhine and ending the Third Reich, just like how Khalid Bin Waled decided it would be impossible to gain peace from the Sassanids, who had been attacking them with their clients, so their fate was sealed.
After initially refusing to accede to requests by his followers to fight the Meccans for continued persecution and provocation, he eventually proclaimed the revelations of the Quran:
"Permission to fight is given to those who are fought against because they have been wronged -truly Allah has the power to come to their support- those who were expelled from their homes without any right, merely for saying, 'Our Lord is Allah'..." (Quran, 22:39-40)"
The Meccans, even those who had been notable for their opposition to Islam, were spared.
Muhammad's critics often hold that the Muslims engaged in wars of aggression. Conversely, other non-Muslim academics believe that Muhammad was a reluctant warrior, such that he disliked fighting except when he believed it to be absolutely necessary.
THERE ARE STILL US MILITARY INSTALLATIONS IN GERMANY, BROTHER! THE US, ENGLAND, AND FRANCE ALL DESIRED INFLUENCE OVER THE FUTURE OF WEST GERMANY'S ECONOMY! BUT THIS COMPARISON TO THE MUSLIM CONQUESTS IS NOT APT, SINCE THE ALLIES DID NOT TAKE PATTON'S ADVICE AND TRY TO CONQUER FURTHER TERRITORIES, BROTHER!
IF THE ISLAMIC MILITARY WAS DEFENSIVE IN NATURE, IT WAS THE FIRST TIME A DEFENSE MOVED FORWARD AND EXPANDED, BROTHER! ISLAM ABSOLUTELY WAS SPREAD BY THE SWORD, IN ADDITION TO INTIMIDATION TACTICS! DENYING THIS IS FRUITLESS RELIGIOUS TRIBALISM!
Did you even read that link?
The Caravan raids refer to a series of raids which Muhammad and his Companions participated in. The raids were generally offensive[10] and carried out to gather intelligence or seize the trade goods of Caravans financed by the Quraysh, (such retaliation was rationalized as being legitimate actions because many Muslims left their possessions and wealth behind when they migrated from Mecca).[11][12] The Muslims declared that the raids were justified and that God gave them permission to defend against the Meccans' persecution of Muslims.[13][14]
The sum total of all casualties on all sides in all the battles of Muhammad is more than 1,000
IN IT'S ENTIRETY, BROTHER!
THIS IS NOT "SELF DEFENSE" BROTHER!

I see Mr. Allah's invisible cloud jack still thinks people take him seriously.
HL is more civil and mature than KTL was. We all kinda agreed to make an effort on that. Kill all this chest-beating infantile bullshyt you've injected into the thread or bounce.The late Guru said "While other struggle to juggle tricky metaphors..." Here you can't grasp a very simple one. You continue to prove how obtuse your mind is. You are beneath me laughing while I tower above you laughing harder.
It's like someone burglarizing your house then you see them walking down the street wearing your coat with the same exact oil stain on the left arm.
