Are you suggesting that I borrow your eye-glasses? So far my doctor has not prescribed any for me.

  • The African Slave Trade, was limited to Africans

Feel free to add any others you want. But I was specific, not general.

I could but this board would not have the capacity to take all those stories of European slave victims - 100,000/year in the US; 3000/year in Israel, etc.

Oh by the way - I way NOT scared of your 'Bold WMDs'.

A slave in Africa was not the same as a slave for Europeans.

A slave for Eurpeans is 3/5ths of a human being, which is currently written in the US Constitution .

Not quite an animal, not quite human.

Although I haven't been out of my country. I have seen the behaviour of Western tourists. When they visit beaches in Kerala or Goa, they stroll around semi-naked (some of them naked) in the beaches. If you visit beaches elsewhere in India which are not frequented by the Westerners, Indians don't behave in the same way. Also, the WEstern tourists behave exactly in the same way as ukhti Ummziba had described the behaviour of her countrymen. Government, here, tolerates them because they bring in lots of money.

I hope, you also don't deny that entire West depends on its prosperity on the U.S.

U.S is different than the West (just as other Western countries are diff. from each other and hence, "different" from the West) but no sensible person can deny that U.S belongs to the West.

YEP, Muslim Arabs went to Africa before the Christian Roman. Hell, which history books I had been reading!

Ever read Roman or Greek history? How you suppose they used to deal with their defeated enemies - Oops, Slaves?

And did I mention how the Christian Serbs and Croats treated their Muslim victims - especially the women? According to western reports - some 60,000 Muslim women were raped by Serbs and Croats.
