Any history writer sees the Mongols, who devastated the Islamdom in the 13th century, as heartless barbarians. Little do they care to investigate what incited such utter rage among them. It is the Jihadis tormenting the Mongols and Turks for one-and-a-half centuries leading to a fierce and vicious counter-attack by the Mongols on Islamdom from 1200 to 1258. An attack that was fiercer than the Crusades and which nearly wiped out Islam.

LOL. I'd never thought I'd read an apologia for Genghis Khan on FreeRepublic, but there's a first time for everything.

Looks like they lacked an exit strategy (besides "we win")

The problem is that the the fall of the Khwarezm also opened the Mongol invasion of Europe. And the Mongols did not just destroy the Muslim-dominated Volga Bulghar Khanate or the Qipchaq/Poltsovoi territories, they sacked Kiev and shattered the Rus. They then went through Poland and into Hungary.

My sympathy in that one is with Chengis Khan. At least the potential for a happy ending was there.

Just as I had feared. The Muslims are deceitful cowards, and have to be utterly destroyed. The same West that waged total war on Germany and Japan will eventually come to its senses and do the same to Islam. What a waste.

They then went through Poland and into Hungary.The Mongols conquered most of Eurasia and killed millions of Budhists, Taoists, Jews, Hindus and Christians. To pretend that they were just a bunch of disgruntled horse farmers until the Muslims came along is revisionist nonsense of the stupidest form.

I learned something new today. Thx!
This brings insight to John Kerry evoking Genghis Khan to disparage our military.

"We haven't the stomach for victory."The country was long ago reduced to a nation of girly men.
Oh, to pick a date, since back around 1920.
