if u do a proper study of history ull find a diff story. the turko mongol race residing in cetral asia has always been known for plundering and having a nomadic lifestyle. their ancestors including genghis khan (who was not a muslim) had gone looted many places in china, europe, indian subcontinent and imddle east. they even had destroyed baghdad and the libraries there. but later on predessors converted to islam. but still they continued their old habits. the religion that they wished to follow was a comination of islam and their original religion and they somehow thought they were doing the right thing. their race has surely committed lot of destruction including the bamiyan in afghanistan, which agn they feel was a correct thing to do as their ancestors had done similar things, but acording to islam are totally wrong things to do. so its really unfair just to blame islam for all this. but people jus love to hate muslims as they are now common enemy for many successful nations and they are in they on the loosing side....and nobody likes to be with the loosers.
