Same could also be said that we owe our heritage to King Leonidas at the Battle of Thermopylae and Themistokles at the Battle of Salamis. Greeks were the first to fight off the Asian horde. But Charles Martel’s victory at the Battle of Tours saved Europe from the Islamic threat for another 800 years.

Read the history of Duke Odo, the muslims crusaded against the people of Bordeaux, France and killed every one of them.

Shortly after Charles Martel came and went down in history.
You will never see the MSM tell this story. This story takes the victimhood of muslims away.

Naah, ya got it all wrong! It was really Don Quixote who destroyed the islamic fleet at the battle of Lepanto!

Seriously though, Miquel Cervantes actually was there and fought in that battle.
