He was a religious leader for 12 years in Mecca, only makes 70 converts.
He gets confrontational, they chase him out of town.
He's the first Muslim refugee, goes to Medina, which was controlled by three Jewish clans.
They're tolerant.
They let him in.
He goes into the minority neighborhoods and he organizes a following like a community organizer.
And he gets involved in politics and he pressures the Jews to a treaty.
And then when his followers get chased out of Mecca, there's lots of Muslim immigrants.
They come into Medina and Muhammad allows him to rob the caravans headed back to Mecca.
He even gets verses from Allah that Allah has given you the slave girls as your booty.
And so he fights in 66 battles and raids, killing 3,000 people.
