New Guy, if you think that Muslims believe that infidels should always be killed I want you to answer this question for me. If this belief was true how come Jews and Christians lived peacefully in Muslim lands for centuries. Muslims could have easily killed them all as the Muslim empire was the strongest in the world and Europe was in the Dark Ages and unable to protect them?
Muslims believe that all people have the right to live no matter what they believe as long as they don't attempt to harm Islam. If they do they shoud be killed.
Actually, the Muslim Empire did try to make inroads into Europe, but succeeded only in holding Spain and the Balkan Peninsula for any period of time. They were turned back in Southern France around 900 AD and forced back across the Pyrennes. So to answer your question, the Muslim Empire didn't kill all the Christians in Europe because they weren't able.
