Yeah, Khaybar and the massacre of the Jewish tribes of Qurayza, Qaynuqa and Nadir never happened. Medina/Yathrib was all hunky dory kumbaya tabarakallah.

  Nadir and Qaynuqa were evicted , not massacred. Qurayza was killed after they betrayed the Muslims in the middle of a seige that Nadir (which had resettled in Khaybar) helped instigate. Khaybar was attacked as a result of that same seige, and after the Muslim victory, they were allowed to keep to their lands in exchange for tribute. So yeah, not a kumbaya story, but it's sure better than your one-line, sarcastic comment.

      That sounds like something we would instantly ban an account for if you mean what you're saying. Since intent is hard to read, I'll assume you don't, but please don't post anything like this to HN again. We don't need religious, nationalist, or racial flamewars here, among the many kinds of flamewars we don't need.
