Islam and the Ten Commandments

So I was reading through some FB comments on that guy who drove his car into a Ten Commandments monument in Arkasas, and I saw someone saying something to the effect of "You Christians are just butthurt because it was a Christian monument. I bet you wouldn't be so mad if it was a Muslim monument!"
Now, Islam is an Abrahamic religion. Wouldn't this make the Ten Commandments a Muslim monument as well as a Christian/Jewish one? I don't know much about what Muslims think of the Torah/Old Testament, so I'm honestly asking.

Muslims don't really have monuments outside muh XBOX, so it's a bizarre thing to say at all

The Ten Commandments play a fundamental role in Islam, ISIS would have beheaded this "Muslim" for blasphemy.

Was lethality the rapier's biggest drawback?
In firearms terminology, "ice picking" is when a bullet passes straight through the body without really doing all too much damage, leaving a wound that isn't much wider than the bullet itself.
When that happens, the target might keep fighting for quite a while, even if he succumbs to his wounds eventually.
With a rapier and similar thin thrusting swords, I imagine there would be a real risk of getting killed after hitting your opponent, even if you totally run him through. I assume that the wound resulting from a rapier thrust would probably less lethal (at least in the short term) than an ice picking rifle bullet.
Of course with the lack of medical expertise of the time, even a crummy little wound would eventually kill. Perhaps that made them a good deterrent, a sort of way of saying "bitch I don't care if neither of us get out of this alive"?
It makes me think that a good cut-and-thrust sword would make a far more effective self-defence tool, as a simple cut to the hand/arm would be a much safer bet when it comes to stopping an assailant trying to kill you, and a broader blade would create significantly gnarlier stab wounds.
Anyway, are there any historical records stating such things, or am I totally wrong here?

You imagine wrong. A sword blade, even a very narrow one, does vastly more damage than a bullet.

More mass = greater damage to tissue.

No. Archaeology is about being able to provide good evidence of your claims; he has none, and he knows it. It's why he refuses to debate actual academics, gets butthurt when anyone calls him on his ridiculous statements, and hides behind not actually being a scholar that's "just asking questions."

Considering their rather odd prehistory and culture, should we attempt to preserve their numbers, or let them perish as with the Tasmanians?

They are basically extinct.
Somehow the majority of them manage to breed with Anglos and since there's like 1% of them left it will turn into 0% before the century is over.

Not really. They're about 2% of the total population and increasing.
They're not going anywhere

That includes heavily mixed people.
Aboriginals who look Aboriginal will become less common outside very rural areas.

I am guessing Christianity?

I found somewhere pic rel, which is supposed to be PIE average face, and it doesn't look purely "Nordic", or "Corded" at all.

the ancient yamnaya/yarnna people were light skinned but didn't exactly look like modern Europeans(they were still darker). They also had brown hair and brown eyes, blue eyes were a genetic mutation

There are some dark Northern Euros though like Alicia Vikander. She always baffles retards who seem to think she looks Balkan or whatever just because her skin is a little darker. But yes, Yamna were slightly darker on average but probably no more than Alicia.

I think his loyalty is much more commendable than his victories. He was disgraced and tortured because he was feared as having too much power. Then he was brought back to command a decimated fleet, won several great victories against the enemy, and died fighting in the last battle for his country. May he feast in the Halls of the Sea King, where nymphs tend to his needs and the rice wine does not stop flowing.
