Tuesday - named after Tiu, one of the German gods of war.

All the same, Islam is *not* a religion of peace. It's interesting that the left forgets Muslims have done atrocities too.

The left loves islam -- yet the islamic nuts who take over a country would first kill the left. Liberalism and Islam are a cancer that kills it's victims - yet as the victim dies so does the cancer!

The left will kill the Western World, but in so doing the left will perish due to this irrational behavior bent on suicide.

It's interesting that the left forgets Muslims have done atrocities too.

They don't forget. They actively ignore bad news. The Hue Massacre, Tet 1968 was ignored. Then they ginned up the worldwide student rebellion in May 1968. After it spilled over into Czechoslavakia with the Prague Spring, you had the The Russian Invasion of Czechoslavakia in August.

All too often , Hollyweird present mythical history set in a vacuum. The Crusades have to be viewed in historical context.

What happened in Constaninople was unforgivable and horrible by this Christian.

But it was preceeded by EQUALLY horrific acts against Christians in the Middle East, Spain, Portugal, southern France and Italy, Sicily, other parts of Greece, Anatolia, and north Africa - ALL once Christian lands before being attacked and focibly converted to Islam.

This process is replicating itself in Nigeria, Sudan, the Phillippines and other parts of the world before our very eyes.

Unless Islam can totally purge itself of these elements, restore Hagia Sophia to Christian Orthodox control and behave as a civilized faith, renouncing CENTURIES of aggression and conquest, the only way the west can respond is with fire and sword or total capitulation. There are no other options.
