Timur himself recorded the invasions in his memoirs, collectively known as Tuzk-i-Timuri.[21] In them, he vividly described the massacre at Delhi:
In a short space of time all the people in the [Delhi] fort were put to the sword, and in the course of one hour the heads of 10,000 infidels were cut off. The sword of Islam was washed in the blood of the infidels, and all the goods and effects, the treasure and the grain which for many a long year had been stored in the fort became the spoil of my soldiers. They set fire to the houses and reduced them to ashes, and they razed the buildings and the fort to the ground....All these infidel Hindus were slain, their women and children, and their property and goods became the spoil of the victors. I proclaimed throughout the camp that every man who had infidel prisoners should put them to death, and whoever neglected to do so should himself be executed and his property given to the informer. When this order became known to the ghazis of Islam, they drew their swords and put their prisoners to death.
One hundred thousand infidels, impious idolators, were on that day slain. Maulana Nasiruddin Umar, a counselor and man of learning, who, in all his life, had never killed a sparrow, now, in execution of my order, slew with his sword fifteen idolatrous Hindus, who were his captives....on the great day of battle these 100,000 prisoners could not be left with the baggage, and that it would be entirely opposed to the rules of war to set these idolaters and enemies of Islam at liberty...no other course remained but that of making them all food for the sword.[22]
According to Malfuzat-i-Timuri,[23] Timur targeted Hindus. In his own words, "Excepting the quarter of the saiyids, the 'ulama and the other Musalmans [sic], the whole city was sacked". In his descriptions of the Loni massacre he wrote, "..Next day I gave orders that the Musalman prisoners should be separated and saved."

Islam isn't just a religion, it IS an ideology.....
The issue is not religion, or even any particular religion. The issue is ideology. There is nothing in communist ideology that would appear to sanction mass murder and purges, yet this is exactly what happened when unscrupulous, self serving leaders corrupted the revolutionary zeal surrounding communism’s birth.
Actually there is. It's you who seeks to rewrite the Koran for empty PC purpose.Similarly, there are those who would deliberately misquote and falsify the teaching of the Koran into justifications for mass murder. The reality is that there is no such component to Islam that would justify this behavior. Yet there are those seeking power, to impose their views on others, and who will use any tool in their arsenal to see those views imposed.
God still holds the record
Mao is estimated to have caused the death of 70 million people and Stalin is thought to have killed around 20 million people so the original post is incorrect.
"My genocide was better than your genocide!"
:doh

People are fee to exercise their religion as they please. Passively for practicality.. or not.
But it's false to say there's no justification for violence, bigotry, or Jihad in the Koran.
The first seven chapters of Leviticus have extensive rules regarding animal and food sacrifices. These offerings are supposed to be burnt so that God can smell them. If you read through these it seems clear to me that the priests were getting their followers to make a big feast for them every week. The priests were very particular about what kind of food to bring and how to prepare it.
Even more peculiar is God's obsession with first-born sons. In Exodus 13:2 the Lord said "Consecrate to me every first-born that opens the womb among Israelites, both man and beast, for it belongs to me." Later it says that you can redeem (replace) an ass with a sheep and that you must redeem a child for an unspecified price. It is clear from the context that "consecrate" means a burning sacrifice. These priests are guilty of theft and kidnapping. Since any sins in the Old Testament were punishable by death, these priests used the threat of death to extort food and money from their followers. What do we call a scum-bag that threatens to kill your kids unless you pay a ransom? A kidnapper! If these priests were alive today they would be in prison with Abraham.
However, in Leviticus 27:28-29, the Lord allows for no redemptions. "Note also that any one of his possessions which a man vows as doomed to the Lord, whether it is a human being or an animal, or a hereditary field, shall be neither sold nor ransomed; everything that is thus doomed becomes most sacred to the Lord. All human beings that are doomed lose the right to be redeemed; they must be put to death." I must admit that I am a bit confused by this contradiction, but it might only apply to slaves in your possession. Not that it makes any difference. A human sacrifice is a human sacrifice, and it is just sick.
That is correct, the largest genocide in human history was perpetrated by the Muslim imperialists in the Indian subcontinent, estimates assert that the Indian population declined by 80 million people under Islamic rule.
80 million Hindus massacred by Muslims. The West is next.
These were not all the result of disease like in the Americas this was the result of a systematic genocide in which all non-Muslims were either killed, converted, or subjugated as dhimmi third class citizens under the 20 humiliations. One example is the murder of 100 thousand prisoners by the Shah Timur as recorded by Timur himself:
In fact the Hindus got off lucky that they could become dhimmis under the Hanafi school of Islamic jurisprudence, because under all other schools of Sharia dhimmi status is reserved only for Christians and Jews.
Furthermore; this occupation and oppression continues to this very day, half of India has been permanently colonized by dar al-Islam IE Pakistan which even in the continues the genocide of Hindus that the Sultans started eg between 300 hundred thousand and 3 million Hindus were killed in 1971 during operation searchlight in Bangladesh.

With the recent terrorist attacks in India allthough tragic it is important to remeber that it is only part of a larger picture and a drop in the bucket compared with the ongoing Islamist genocide and occupation of the Indian subcontinent. And this is only a single region in the global jihadists grand strategy of bringing the entire world into the fold of dar al-Islam through offensive Jihad eg Umayyad Conquest of North Africa which started in around 600 A.D. the conquest of Hispania which occurred in the 700's, and the invasions of Southern Italy which occurred in the 800's, the crusades didn't start until 1000 AD.
The Rashidun dynasty first engaged in the unprovoked war of aggression against the Zoroastrian Sassanid Empire of Persia they conquered Persia and Mesopotamia between 633 and 656, they then conquered Syria in 637, then they conquered Armenia in 639, then they conquered Egypt in 639, then they conquered North Africa in 652.
Under the Umayyads they finished their conquest of North Africa in 665, then between 662 and 709 they conquered Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and southwest Kazakhstan, then between 664 and 712 they conquered the Indian sub-continent, then between 711 and 718 they conquered the Iberian Peninsula of Hispania, they then laid siege to Constantinople between 717 and 718, then between 711 and 750 they conquered the Caucasus, they then conquered Tbilisi in 736, and they then conquered southern Italy in 827.
That is completely ignorant do you realize how many people stalin and mao killed...try 80,000,000

Using the Koran as justification is no different than using Communist ideology, or Nazi ideology, or ethno-purity ideology and working them into a frenzy from which morality is expelled. Those that participated in the Balkan cleansing operations surely understood that the murder and rape of innocents was wrong, yet their actions were excused on behalf of greater-Serbia or ethnic purity. Similarly, Bin Laden's may cloak murder under a perversion of Islam, but the reality of the actions is no different than the Balkans.
It is no accident that Hitler and Stalin employed similar tactics in their 'rise to power' and it is no accident that at some point these actions reap their own reward, be it a cowards death in a bunker or setting the stage for the eventual implosion of your nation.
Yet what would that Grand Caliphate look like? A deliberate disregard for modern technology?
Bin Laden and his group are no threat.
Was it atheism expressed through communism that spoke in Stalin's purges, or was it simply the expression of a murdering tyrant bent on protecting his seat of power at all costs?
The idea of Islam has never killed a single man. Those who would deface it, or any other ideology, for personal, political gain have killed millions. So long as there exists men who wish to rule at any cost, there will be ideologies that exist for opportunism.

First he killed millions. It wasn't to wipe out an ethnic group, though. Then came the famine.Mao did not commit genocide first of all. His policies failed and led to famine.
I agree.People were all savages back then though... Comparing it to now is absolutely ridiculous.
First he killed millions.
I read through some of these posts and have to wonder to myself...
...what makes some people such @*ssies that they can't even admit who our enemies are?
