Take a look at the claims from all 4 clips. MOre proof that Islam never experienced anything close to the scientific turn of mind that occured in Europe in the 12th-13th centuries. Islamic entertainment and intellectual life are stuck in the irrationality of a pre-greco-roman-western time and place.

Very well stated, although I would only wish to gently suggest that even in the 12th century (and earlier), Europeans and Western civilization exhibited far more humanity, kindness and decency than these sub-humans do even today.  Great noises are made about the long-past scientific contributions of the Islamic world, but whatever they produced or contributed a thousand years ago never gave them a basic sense of humanity and they never even advanced far enough technologically to dig up the oil that lay under their own feet.
