Why did prophet Muhammed swear to go to kick all Jews out of Arabian Penninsula?

There are many prophetic statements (Hadith) told by prophet Muhammed where he swears to god to kick all Jews from Arabian Penninsula. He also sweared to god not to allow any other religion but Islam in Arabian Penninsula. Does those statements stand with what we know about great Islamic values (equality, justice, tolerance, ...etc)?

1. Good question, and good luck to get anyone to answer your question. They will not answer this one, other than the usual "why are you insulting our religion and our prophet...!" kind of answers. It is not that hard to figure. When Muhammad started his preaching to his new religion, he was not welcomed with open arms, on the contrary, he had hard time getting people to listen to him. in his first 5 10 years he only got about 500 people to join him, and that is when he changed from 'to each his own' kind of teaching, into by the force, power, and the sword that he later on took. So, when he become so powerful, and stormed Mecca with over 10,000 of his men, took it by force and turned it to his main center. He promised to kick all non Muslims out of these places so as they will not be able to force him out as they did to him previously. This is why if you are not Muslim, you can't step a foot in Makka or Medina, and if you are caught, it is the death penalty. Yes, these are the Islamic value. Any muslim who tells you it is not, they are not facing the truth. The truth is there is no equality in Islam, no freedom of choice or speech, and when it comes to their preaching and building their places of worship. They can and demand to do it anywhere they wish, but non muslim, it is ilegal for you to preach your religion in these area. Illegal, punishable by prison or deportation, and some area by death. The only way they can explain or excess these acts is by blaming them on the radical. The problem is those so called radicals have a free hand to do as they please, and those moderate one don't speak much against it. Those who do the deeds and those who keep silent and don't speak out against those deeds are just as guit. Nabil, one of Muhammad's wife was a Jew, but do you know the story how she became his wife. He attacked her tribe. Killed her peope, including her father, brother, and husband. Took their property, their women and children became slaves, and that woman was the most beautiful of them, he took her for himself. He took her to his tent and had sex with her the same night he killed her family. She didn't have any say in it. If she did, she would have probably been sold, given away to his friends to have their way with her, or killed. Read your Quran & Hadith. It is all there. Muslims: If Muhammad is not the one who forbid the non muslims entrance to those places then who? Does that means you are practicing your religion with the teaching of someone other than your prophet? also. does that means someone is changing the teaching of your own prophet? I really like to learn to understand.
2. one of his wives was Jew, so that Hadith is not really true and if it is then he would not married to one.
3. show us those hadith. r they shahih hadith? i doubt it. those must be dhaif, or even mursal ones.
4. Those ahadith are considered "weak" and many scholars don't accept them, even Wahhabi scholars in Saudi Arabia. Besides, you're even misquoting the accusation, which was that there would be no non-Muslims in the Arabian peninsula. Perhaps it meant that everyone would eventually convert (peacefully of course) once they discovered Islam. Besides, there were plenty of non-Muslim citizens in the Muslim empire. Saudi Arabia still has some of the 1400 year old churches, and Muhammad, peace be upon him, did marry a former Jewish woman who converted to Islam.
