As we reflect on 9/11 I think it's important to remember it's perpetrators' main hero, and motivator, by their own testimony.
In reading the above too, I think it's important to note all the biographical facts of Mohammad are FROM ISLAMIC SOURCES. In Christian tradition we would call such histories "hagiography" in the sense that they were written by those sympathetic to their subject--and probably were "sanitized" of what the historians thought were the less flattering parts and polished up, or "spun" for popular consumption. Hence the damning image that emerges from them is probably not nearly as bad as that of the real history.
Not much has changed since, has it?
"If the West wants to have peace, then they have to accept Islamic rule."
A more attractive alternative might be to do unto Islam what they'd do unto us.
The bonds of hatred.......
I call unfair. Islam has produced terrorism, stoning of women, and blowing up of Bhuddist statues, among it's many other august accomplishments.
Join us next eon with another exciting episode of... "The many incarnations of Jengis Con."
People think I am a “chicken little” when I state my opinion but I truly feel as if the next “Crusade” has begun and we have just woken up to realize it.
PS- Thanks for posting, excellent read.
Cults are always bad news.
Too long to read. Let’s just summarize that Mo was a delusional murdering pedophile and leave it at that.
We in the West need to understand that Mohammadism IS terrorism. It is not a religion of peace because it is not a religion. It is an organized criminal activity which must be eradicated.

The koran is nothing but the the rantings of a two bit mentally diseased warlord who wanted to gather followers

Much as they do today, with the exception of certain oil sheikhdoms made wealthy beyond a man's wildest dreams by Western money.
... the Arabians lived short and brutal lives in warring tribes with very little to offer the rest of the world beyond their own harsh existence.
I see nothing has changed in 1,500 years.
The religion does not encourage the pursuit of knowledge outside of itself, and it has sometimes been referred to as the religion which has produced nothing but religion.
Fixed.

Thanks for the history lesson about “The Religion of Pieces.”
Just read the opening lines. Sounds like a list of excuses. I guess everyone has one but apparently the pig-fornicator Mohhamed has a lot.
From the Publishers Weekly review:
In Keys's startling thesis, a global climatic catastrophe in A.D. 535-536--a massive volcanic eruption sundering Java from Sumatra--was the decisive factor that transformed the ancient world into the medieval, or as Keys prefers to call it, the "proto-modern" era. Ancient chroniclers record a disaster in that year that blotted out the sun for months, causing famine, droughts, floods, storms and bubonic plague. Keys, archeology correspondent for the London Independent, uses tree-ring samples, analysis of lake deposits and ice cores, as well as contemporaneous documents to bolster his highly speculative thesis. In his scenario, the ensuing disasters precipitated the disintegration of the Roman Empire, beset by Slav, Mongol and Persian invaders propelled from their disrupted homelands. The sixth-century collapse of Arabian civilization under pressure from floods and crop failure created an apocalyptic atmosphere that set the stage for Islam's emergence. In Mexico, Keys claims, the cataclysm triggered the collapse of a Mesoamerican empire; in Anatolia, it helped the Turks establish what eventually became the Ottoman Empire; while in China, the ensuing half-century of political and social chaos led to a reunified nation. Huge claims call for big proof, yet Keys reassembles history to fit his thesis, relentlessly overworking its explanatory power in a manner reminiscent of Velikovsky's theory that a comet collided with the earth in 1500 B.C. Readers anxious about future cataclysms will take note of Keys's roundup of trouble spots that could conceivably wreak planetary havoc.
