I'm very wary of posts that attack Yazeed because it is possible that they over exaggerate or outright fabricate things against him.

you made a claim in this post. defend it with some hard evidence from a traditional source that is acceptable across the board, or you should remove that claim. One should be very wary of making claims if there's a possibility of it not being true.
You are write to ask, we should know where this is from. I read it a few years ago when researching the matter of civil wars in Islam, I do not have the refence to hand but will check and definately post it here when I find it IA.

Just to let you know, I consider Muawaiyyah (Ra), Marwan, Abdul-Malik Ibn Marwan and Umar Ibn AbduL-Aziz the great rulers from the Umayyad period. If your surprised at why I have put Marwan amongst them, there is a real possibility according to some scholars, he was born in the era of Prophethood and was present as a very young child at the time of the Prophets farewell sermon in Makkah - which, if accurate, would make him one of the children amongst the Ashab (Ra).

Edit: The reference is not from a classical, reputable Islmaic historian, it was a Muslim orientalist without clear reference. I take your brother and will remove that reference from the above. Definately will be more careful in the future - Jazakallahu-Khairan

Allahu A'lam
