What’s wrong with this picture? France had Charles Martel, we have W.

I agree Modern France has had a rap of late of being a “wimpy” country, but they seem to get it on the Iran thing.

Chucky M stopped them at Tours in the 730’s I believe.

I’m sure Iran dismantled their nuclear weapons program for now. That only takes about 6 months to a year to reconstitute. Of course the enrichment of Uranium, the lengthy process which gives the bomb its kick is still continuing..So Iran is 6-12 months away from having a bomb once they enrich enough Uranium for fuel.

I was thinking Martel was ~1000- A.D.

At any rate, Rome is not showing any true resistance. The Holy Father issues edicts castigating the war from time to time, but doesn't seem to ever address the true, eternal war between Islam and (any religion's) civilization, in any country.
