A hundred years earlier the West stood aside and let Constantinople fall to the Turks. It strikes me that the only reason Malta survived was because of the determination of a few in the face of the apathy of the many. Reminds me of today.

Yes. And what’s in Constantinople? Oh yeah, a Christian Church that was turned into a Muslim Mosque! It’s past time for a repeat of history’s recurring and inevitable Muslim beat down. They are evil among us.
