Why don't Muslims remember the violence that prophet Muhammad taught and practiced..killed 600 Jews, teaches killing of non-Muslims in 9:29?

It seems they remember him only as a benevolent figure.

Or do they? And if so why is this indicative of a prophet? Surah 9:20 says to Kill Christians and Jew because basically they've taken "partners to God" like the "infidels of old" namely "Christ" and the prophet "Ezra"

    I've known some Muslims who speak about "pure Islam". These Muslims believe that mainstream Islam has been corrupted by western values. They seek to remove all western influences from Islam. These "pure Islam" Muslims also believe that they need to dominant the world, force all countries to accept Sharia Law, and have all infidels submit to their authority. I believe that ISIS is a good representation of these radical Muslims. These are the Muslims who do remember the violence of the prophet Muhammad, and they seek to do the same.

    As opposed to Christians who remember the Christian God who ordered the killing of hundreds of thousands, whole cities;

    1 Samuel 15 3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ***.

    Deuteronomy 20:16–18 But in the cities of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you for an inheritance, you shall save alive nothing that breathes, 17 but you shall devote them to complete destruction,1 the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, as the Lord your God has commanded, 18 that they may not teach you to do according to all their abominable practices that they have done for their gods, and so you sin against the Lord your God.

    Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants. (Isaiah 14:21)

    "Then I heard the LORD say to the other men, "Follow him through the city and kill everyone whose forehead is not marked. Show no mercy; have no pity! Kill them all – old and young, girls and women and little children. But do not touch anyone with the mark. Begin your task right here at the Temple." So they began by killing the seventy leaders. "Defile the Temple!" the LORD commanded. "Fill its courtyards with the bodies of those you kill! Go!" So they went throughout the city and did as they were told." (Ezekiel 9:5-7

    Anyone who is captured will be run through with a sword. Their little children will be dashed to death right before their eyes. Their homes will be sacked and their wives raped by the attacking hordes. For I will stir up the Medes against Babylon, and no amount of silver or gold will buy them off. The attacking armies will shoot down the young people with arrows. They will have no mercy on helpless babies and will show no compassion for the children. (Isaiah 13:15-18

    (Moses) stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, "All of you who are on the LORD's side, come over here and join me." And all the Levites came. He told them, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Strap on your swords! Go back and forth from one end of the camp to the other, killing even your brothers, friends, and neighbors." The Levites obeyed Moses, and about three thousand people died that day. Then Moses told the Levites, "Today you have been ordained for the service of the LORD, for you obeyed him even though it meant killing your own sons and brothers. Because of this, he will now give you a great blessing." (Exodus 32:26-29

    Go up, my warriors, against the land of Merathaim and against the people of Pekod. Yes, march against Babylon, the land of rebels, a land that I will judge! Pursue, kill, and completely destroy them, as I have commanded you," says the LORD. "Let the battle cry be heard in the land, a shout of great destruction". (Jeremiah 50:21-22

    A kind of Arab, Islam eugenics...only they have value...no one else.

    They can rape bcuz it's trash, less than dogs.

    Definitely kill. Definitely enslave, beat, torture, use, use for sex. That's

    why others exist...to serve them.

    Their leader lived that way...a destroyer, so they follow their leader.
