Iskandar, We are not talking about someone as though it was any ole person. It was the leading merchants families as a group that decided to expel Muslims from Mecca and expropriate their property, the same merchants who run the caravans. You think about this as anachronistically as you like. It does not change the fact that you are attacking the actions of a Manifestation of God. A Baha'i should think seriously before doing this.
