On Arabs, Stench And Filth. Comments

6) They did horrendous crimes against humanity across the world, apart from what they did in the Americas and Asia, but in Africa like slave-trading, killing millions of civilians of third-world in wars among themselves. this is history.

5) they conquered and ruled many parts of the world. But, in the process, they destroyed any inherent aboriginal communities and civilisations in the places they conquered and decimated the aboriginal populations.

4) My notes are not intended to denigrate any community, but to state the facts. It is just that with the advent nineteenth century, Europe made tremendous progress in sea-voyage, ship-building and this was encouraged by large scale use of arms and ammunition,

3) This simply means that the civilisation that existed circa 4000 BC, in all these places were comparable in stature. And that no mention is made about trade relations with Europe tells us clearly that no civilisation worth the name existed there.

2) while speaking of varied stone, brick and metallurgical industries that thrived, it is mentioned that healthy trade relations existed between the people of these sites with those in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia etc.

Arabs were a great civilisation millennia before Christ. I have very recently gone through a book on the findings of excavations done at the sites of Mohanjo Daro and Harappa in the North-West India and adjoining areas in Pakistan..

Adam, this is not about religion. Arabs are Muslim, Christian and Jewish. Nor is this about the crusades, there is a lot to be discussed there. This is about an ugly peice of writing that described Arabs as filth and an explanation that every civilization made contributions to mankind. It is about not using this site for verbal bullets and turning it into a battleground. Thanks for your comments. GS

Ghada, very well said and I admire your taking the high road. kenneth
