We need a modern Vlad Tepes :) Fearless, curageous, patriot and, above all, faithful in the Lord!
Almost from the very beginning of Islam, there were wars upon wars between Christians and Moslems. We remember the Crusade wars, seven major and several minor, which lasted for centuries.
This is the story of the Battle of Lepanto, which marked the end of the Crusades and was a turning point in the history of Christianity.
Charles Martel's victory at Poitiers definitely stopped the Moslem invasion of western Europe.
In the east Christians held firm against attacks of the Moslems until 1453. In that year, Mohammed II threw huge assaults against Constantinople and by the evening of May 29 the Byzantine capital fell.
By 1571 the Moslems were firmly installed in Europe. Their ships ruled the Mediterranean Sea from the Strait of Bosporus to the Strait of Gibraltar and constantly preyed on Christian vessels unless they flew the French flag.
