I don’t know, maybe we need a modern crusade to liberate the world from Islam. Start by nuking Mecca and kill anyone bearing arms on behalf of Islam.

Hard to remember that muslims had fought their way into France within a few years of Mohammed’s death.

That North Africa and the entire Middle East was Christian territory until muslims invaded and seized it.

That they fought their way all the way to Vienna and large swaths of Europe were under muslim rule right up until the First World War.

What we call the Crusades was a failed rear guard action that fell before the onslaught of muslim armies. The middle east was not historically muslim, it was historically Christian until the muslim invasion.

How much $$ and how many mosques has OBAMA FUNDED AND/OR REBUILT around the world since taking office?

Talk about a Crusade.

I have a beautiful time-line map of civilizations about three by ten feet. After studying it I came up with a soundbite I like ti use. “The crusades were an 86 year interruption to over 1,000 year of barbaric Islamic conquests".
