Now that sounds like an eletist European intellectual jab if I have ever heard one. But you do have a point. Many sit around talking trash, while others (like me and my brother) have and are still taking out the trash. Thanks for your input, sometimes we all need a little shake up.

In what fundamental way would you consider this conflict different from the Muhammadean advance, and subsequent Christian Crusades that took place ~1000 years ago?

The director of the group Jihad Watch says things have gotten so bad in Europe that the only solution to the Islamic problem might be to divide the continent into Muslim and non-Muslim enclaves.
Oh great. Picture the Balkans X1000.

Interesting thoughts. The author might be right, unfortunately.

These regions or countries have never been christian
The western coast of the Balkan peninsula, Illyria, later known as Albania, was evangelized as part of the Holy Roman Empire in the first centuries. It was conquered in the 1400s by the Ottoman Turks. The forced conversion to Islam resulted in a majority Muslim population by the 18th century.
Bosnia Herzegovina was also a member of the Holy Roman Empire for a thousand years, though physically and intellectually isolated from the Catholic mainstream. Bosnia, was also conquered by the Ottoman Turks but there was no sudden, mass conversion of the Bosnian Catholic Church to Islam, but rather a multiple process of population movements and conversions in the 15th and 16th centuries.

You are right that are the facts but he situation today and by the way all these problems in that region is a result of the developments you presented here.
If you like this more these regions are muslim regions for centuries and not result of present immigration as this article wants us to believe. Perhaps if the turks were not stopped at Vienna whole europe would be muslim today.
The article simply creates a wrong impression.
