No one ever said that there wasn't violence recorded in the book of Joshua, (as well as other OT books.)
It is not just violence, it is genocide directed by Yahweh. The entire Old Testament is filled with "military operations" by the Hebrews in which they target men, women, and children, and absolutely wipe out entire peoples.
The point is that whereas Johua relates the conquering of Canaan after the Egyptian captivity to establish a homeland, the history of islam is quite different, after subdueing the Arabian penensula, moslems swept accross North Africa to the Atlantic, into the Iberian penensula, accross the Pyrenees to within 150 miles of Paris.
Genocide is unacceptable unless of course one is doing so in order to establish a homeland. The reason the Hebrews stopped is because they ran up against more powerful foes.
Everywhere they went they slaughtered millions, enslaved even greater numbers and for those who weren't converted by the sword or killed or enslaved, there was an exorbitant infidel tax imposed that effectively rendered them to be economic slaves.
Just like the OT Hebrews.
Hundreds of millions, billions of people were affected over the centuries.
Scope as opposed to principle.
In many cases so-called infidels had to pay a tribute of young sons to serve in islamic armies and young daughters to serve as concubines to islamic rulers.
In many cases, non-Jews were erased from the face of the earth for worshiping Baal.
So it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that what is recorded in Joshua and islamic history are for two different purposes.
Obviously, since you are a dumb*ss...
This started with an attempt to compare Jesus and muhammed, (a topic you are loath to discuss evidently).
I have discussed it; however, you fail to accept any evidence I cite (Bible, OT, Jesus=God in Christian theology ergo God's kills are Jesus's, etc.)
Maybe, you just buy into that whole "peace on earth and goodwill to men" thing...
But it does bring me to another comparison between the two.
Jesus came to be a servant to mankind, muhammed endeavored to conquer mankind.
Jesus spoke a lot about being a servant; yet, in most of the stories he is being served.
This is one of the main reasons that Hitler admired muhammed and islam so much and was distainful of Christ and Christianity and probably why Mein Kampf is a best seller in countries where islam dominates.
Distainful? That sounds dirty.
Interesting that you capitalize 'Hitler', yet you neither capitalize 'muhammed' nor 'islam'. Seems like you have some subconscious infatuation with Hitler (which, of course, would come as no surprise to anyone on this board).
