I don't believe Mohammed was a prophet, but instead was a tribal warlord attacking trade expeditions and then empire building by military conquest. Just another warmonger in a human history of warmongers declaring God was on his side to ignorant people like nearly all warmongers did and do.
Prophet Muhammad was one of the most strongest men of his time,so naturally he was an excellent battles-man/ warrior.Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of God be upon him, was not a warlord. If an ignorant tells you that he is a warlord, then you should tell him that he is no more a warlord than Moses, Joshua and David, peace be upon them, were warlords. Even secular people shouldn't really have a problem with him because the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, fought mostly defensive wars, fought treacherous tribes, maintained his peacy treaties with those who didn't breach the treaty (God tells in the Qur'an that the treaties with those Mushriks who didn't breach their treaties should be carried to the end). Being labeled a warrior is a good thing, or at least a neutral thing, Joshua and David, peace be upon them, were also warriors. .If you take some time to read history(from the correct source),you'll find out that half of the wars done were in defensive and the rest in military concern of a growing nation.History is full of gruesome selfish wars,but Muhammad (pbuh) proved himself to be the most just and merciful of all leaders.
Only the haters and disbelievers label the prophet (pbuh) with ugly names(but many of them are later revert on finding the truth) ,and the reasons are pretty clear.Ignorance ,jealousy and fear.It is natural for a average man to degrade a person's honor if they deemed much higher than them or their likes.

Mohammed was a messenger to the people of the Arabian peninsula who preached "return to the God of Abraham".. I'm Christian so he's not MY prophet, but to Muslims he is a prophet.
Agreed but he is the final messanger of God to other people as well not only of Arabia.
"And We have not sent you except as a mercy to mankind"
(Qur'an Al-Anbiyah 21:107)
7.158
YUSUFALI: Say: "O men! I am sent unto you all, as the Messenger of Allah, to Whom belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth: there is no god but He: it is He That giveth both life and death. So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet, who believeth in Allah and His words: follow him that (so) ye may be guided."
34.028
YUSUFALI: We have not sent thee but as a universal (Messenger) to men, giving them glad tidings, and warning them (against sin), but most men understand not.
So as you can see Allah states that the prophet Muhammad was sent as a messenger to all of mankind, it does not say that he was sent to the Arabs only. The Noble prophet Muhammad himself said that he was sent to mankind, not to his nation only.
