1786 White Slavery in the Mediterranean. The slave kingdoms of North Africa and the Barbary terrorism, March 1786. “America’s two main diplomats at the time were John Adams in London and Jefferson in Paris. Together they called upon Ambassador Abdrahaman, the envoy of Tripoli in London, in March 1786. This dignitary mentioned a tariff of three payments for the ransom of slaves and hostages for cheap terms of temporary peace and for more costly terms of “perpetual peace”. He did not forget to add his own commission as a percentage. Adams and Jefferson asked to know by what right he was exacting the levies. The U.S. had never menaced or quarreled with any of the Muslim powers. As Jefferson later reported to the State Department and Congress, “The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them where they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners”.” -Time Mag.

Haaretz http://www.haaretz.com/world-news/europe/.premium-1.737359reports that the video clip was recorded during the holy month of Ramadan earlier this year, but wasn't translated until after the murder of a French Catholic priest at the hands of Islamic State supporters
