And look what Sadaam Hussein has done against Muslims:
Quote:
The Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988) resulted in an estimated 1 million Muslim casualties, dead and wounded. Iranian casualties were estimated at between 450,000 and 730,00. Iraqi casualties were estimated at between 150,000 and 340,000.
During the 1988 Anfal campaign in Iraqi Kurdistan, Iraqi troops were responsible for the death or disappearance of up to 100,000 Muslim Kurds.
On March 16, 1988, Iraqi troops killed up to 5,000 and injured some 10,000 Muslim Kurds in a single day in a chemical weapon attack on the town of Halabja in northern Iraq.
The 1990 Iraqi invasion of Kuwait led to the death of some 1,000 Kuwaiti Muslim nationals.
605 prisoners of war remain unaccounted for since 1991, including nationals of Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, India, Syria, Lebanon, Iran, Egypt, Bahrain, and Oman.
Between 3 and 4 million Muslim Iraqis have abandoned their homes and sought refuge outside of Iraq.
Many hundreds of thousands of Iraq's Muslims have been displaced internally. Estimates of 900,000 may be conservative. In the north, towns and villages were systematically destroyed by the regime during the war with Iran. Further south, non-Arabs in the region of Kirkuk have been relocated to other parts of the Iraq and Arabs induced to occupy their homes and lands. And in the south, between 300,000 and 500,000 Muslim citizens have been forced from their traditional homes in Iraq's marsh lands.
Thousands of Muslims have been arbitrarily arrested, ill-treated, tortured and executed in Iraq in recent years. Because of their suspected opposition political activities, or because they are relatives of people sought by the authorities.

Also, if you were wondering of some of the forms of torture that Iraq uses, here you go:
Quote:
Eye gouging
Piercing of hands with electric drill
Suspension from the ceiling
Electric shock
Sexual abuse
Victims, particularly women, have been raped and sexually abused, including reports of broken bottles being forced into the victim's anus.
"Falaga"
Victims are forced to lie face down and are then beaten on the soles of their feet with a cable, often losing consciousness.
Other physical torture
Extinguishing cigarettes on various parts of the body, extraction of fingernails and toenails and beatings with canes, whips, hose pipes and metal rods are common.
Mock executions
Acid baths
I would also like you to know that male inmates in the Iraqi jails are beaten daily, and women are also raped daily by their guards.

Now maybe we all know why Almansurah lives in a Democratic country rather than one of the friendly and generous Islamic states.
And I still would like this question answered by Mr. Almansurah:
How does Islam address democracy, women's rights, and people's freedom to choose their own destiny?
