Slavery Is Neither Strange Nor Peculiar

"As University of Nebraska-Lincoln political science professor David P. Forsythe wrote in his book, “The Globalist,” “The fact remained that at the beginning of the nineteenth century an estimated three-quarters of all people alive were trapped in bondage against their will either in some form of slavery or serfdom.” Slavery was common among ancient peoples — Egyptians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Hittites, Greeks, Persians, Armenians and many others. Large numbers of Christians were enslaved during the Ottoman wars in Europe. White slaves were common in Europe from the Dark Ages to the Middle Ages. It was only during the 17th century that the Atlantic slave trade began with Europeans assisted by Arabs and Africans."
And no one wants to admit that Arabs and Africans were part of the supply service for the slavery. Political correctness and historical ignorance once again go hand in hand among the young. BTW, slavery is still common in many Muslim countries.

Interesting

Well-stated SGT (Join to see). Since ancient times slaves have been taken from defeated peoples. De facto slave labor exists in many regions of the world even now. Sexual slavery is a travesty especially when children are treated like chattel at best.
Thank you, my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for mentioning me.
