Ahhh, somebody gets it. They’ve fought the Muslims for a thousand years. It’s good they remember. Battle of Vienna, however - only a few of the Catholic countries/ kingdoms got together, The Protestants would not join them to fight the Muslims.

Wrong.

The armies of Ferdinand and Isabella that pushed the Muslims out of the Iberian peninsula were funded in large part by the JEWS. There were many pre-Lutheran dissenters, proto-Protestants, if you will, living in Iberia at the time, perhaps as many as 10%, by Torquemada’s own estimate, and they were involved in the fight to free Iberia from Mohammedan occupation.

Neither the Jews nor the dissenters at the time knew that Isabella would betray them.

“We must acknowledge that the European Union’s misguided immigration policy is responsible for this situation.”

It seems like the Eastern Europeans, the Poles, Hungarians, Macedonians...are the only ones that get it. But in most of the Balkans, the Turks are a fairly recent memory.
