I thought the most bias one of all hit it perfectly on the head when he said that Muslims hear stories of the Crusades and think of it as happening just yesterday. It's the explanation for why they keep trying to attack anything Western. They are still holding a grudge. I wouldn't be surprised if they were holding a grudge against the US because of the Babrbary Pirates.

To top it off the things they complain about now are the acts and behaviour of Lib's.

Just like Shelby Steele who was still angry at Whites the other night because of Andrew Jackson. Without new slights to form new grievances, you have to go back until you find something you can really sink your teeth into.

BTW, Steele has a new book entitled "What Whites Owe Blacks and what Blacks Owe Whites." The answer to the first part is Respect, Opportunity, and and End to Racism. The answer to what Blacks owe Whites? Nothing.

And now back to the topic at hand, sorry for the misdirection, but the refusal to let go reminded me of American Blacks.

The muslim history they lean to is after their own major military conquests - the three hundred year Jihad that built the civilization of Islam - is over.

Their resentment is towards what lands Muslims then later lost, while ignoring those "lost" lands were simply taken back by the peoples the Muslims conquered them from to begin with (Turkey, Lebanon, Palestine, all of North Africa, Spain and Portugal and eventually a good part of central Europe (the Balkans).
