Jews in Ottoman Turkey? Sharia law in Indonesia? What do they have to do with India? I wish you would google these things before posting such bizarre notions. The word secular was only inserted into the Indian constitution in 1977. How did it inspire Indonesian "secularism"? As for the vaunted Indonesian secularism you tout - is it letting the other religions live and practice or actually allowing them to prosper? How many non-muslims reach higher office in Indonesia. How many non-muslims in Indonesia have a shot at becoming president? Once a country's population reaches more than 40-50% Islamic, Sharia law and eventual annihilation of the non-muslim population is just a matter of time. The data shows this again and again - Copts in Egypt, Northern Nigeria, Hindus in Kashmir, Bangladesh, Turkey (Armenians/Assyrians/Greeks), Iraq (Assyrians)...... The Jews of Europe developed into a professional class because of forced urbanization in Europe. They were very desirable immigrants in the 16th century like the highly educated technology class that is courted by every country. What about the pogroms against Jews that were prevelant in most of Arabia from Morocco to the Arabian peninsula? The Arabic pogroms against Jews were less severe than European pogroms against Jews but hardly a virtue. Islam explicitly sanctions capture, trading and sexual slavery of non-muslim women and trading and ownership of slaves in general. Did you know historians have compiled price indices of the price of non-muslim women sold in the markets of the Ottoman Empire over hundreds of years? Sexual slavery for women and non-muslim men being castrated was the norm till Ataturk (20th century!) and about 50% of the boys died during castration. If you want to talk of the Ottoman Empire as a beacon of tolerance you can watch this truly disturbing video of slavery in Islam and the Ottoman empire [1]. On second thought, don't watch the video as it is truly disturbing. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIjPPRf0YZk&t https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIjPPRf0YZk&t

You're so intelligent, you're actually sharing a channel that's named "Apostate Prophet". Clearly they don't have an agenda and are totally impartial right? You must be so brilliant! Maybe next time use actual history books for reference, instead of YT channels. Maybe then you won't numb your grey matter willingly.

  Brilliant. Ad-hominen attacks because you cannot stomach the facts. Would those facts be more palatable if they were from a channel called GodIsGreat? You could have watched the video and rebutted the facts that are inconvenient to your version of reality.

    Because it's very likely that the channel decides to selectively choose facts and spit out nonsense, leading to its entire content to be worthless? I can give out a million channels that will talk about how glorious the Ottoman Empire and the Mughal Empire were without highlighting the massacres or corruption within them. I'm not, because that would be as distasteful as you are. Not to mention, every one of your comments here on this thread seems to be about advancing an agenda that is very much aligned with that of the Hindu-nationalist party.

      This is the problem with woke kids today. The narrative is more dear than the facts. Only facts from "approved" sources and affiliations. 1984 has arrived. Instead of attacking me and called me names take that video and challenge any of the facts in there. Or go back to reddit.
