Can you point me to their fair share of violence?
I mentioned Hezbollah and Iran since Khomeni, no? Yes, I’m aware that Iran keeps a captive population of Jews and Christians essentially in a zoo to trot out and point out how “tolerant” they are… Color me unimpressed.

What I’d really like is some feedback from you on how Shia see some of Muhammed’s more violent instructions in the Koran (do you prefer Koran, Quran, Q’uran or which? For that matter, please indicate any preferred spelling of your prophet’s name too). Fro what I understand, in his Medina period, Muhammed lead raids, conquered neighboring towns, ordered execution of whole adult male populations and permitted his men to turn captured women into virtual sex slaves starting on the same day their husbands were executed.

If these things are untrue, I’d like your perspective on what that period really looked like, because from here it sounds a lot like ISIS.
