Maybe the White House could study up before opening their mouths.

One of my favorite quotes from Powerline: "There are many reasons why Barack Obama is unfit to be president, but one of the most basic is, he just isn’t smart enough to handle the job."

Islam from the very beginning was a battle plan for subjugating innocent people and turning them into slaves.

Just to show how stupid we were then, and still haven’t learned, the Muszzies overtook most of Europe before the first Crusade. It was over 400 years of death and beheading’s before the first Crusade. Many of the Muzzie ships we sent to the bottom were filled with Christian slaves at the oars. Mohammed invented this crap in the 600’s and I believe the first Crusade was about 1000+. The Muszzies are mad because when we went to take back the Christian lands we killed women and children. They had been raping them and beheading them the whole time. It was called war in the middle ages. Today we have moved on with smart bombs and lasers, they still rely on beheading.

Here's a fairly extensive list of Islamic aggression leading up to the crusades:

The participants did vary in their degree of Muslim committment. As usual with Muslims, most of the time, this stuff comes in waves, that hit both the infidels and Islamic slackers. The new regime brought by the wave inevitably gets corrupted and moderates itself, until its swamped by the next wave. There were several of these waves that hit Spain, for instance. The Almoravids and Almohads were two. After the combined Spanish kingdoms crushed the no-longer-as-fanatical Almohads at Las Navas de Tolosa, the subsequent overrunning of Muslim territory kept any new waves from successfully slopping over from Africa.

Exactly right! Charles Martel drove back the sons of pig f’n dogs well before the first Crusade.

The last time these devout muslims were driven out was in 1648 at the battle of Vienna which was well after the last Crusade.

The entire religion, regardless of what any single adherent does or says at any one time is a pack of murdering, raping, shitheads who are either laying back quiet waiting for their opportunity to jihad or they are active participants in the current jihad.

Islam needs to be wiped from the face of the earth. Our distant ancestors screwed that up though their greed and personal goals and we’re now left to clean it up.

Battles in other places counted as crusades.
Many of those “conquest” battles in Spain, Italy, Sicily, and even Hungary, Serbia, etc.
Last certified crusaders I know of served Juan Capistrano and Janos Hunyadi at Belgrade in 1456. Perhaps the final conquest of Granada counted too, I’m not sure.

After Al Mansur took over the Spanish caliphate and launched a wave of death and conquest, he peaked when he destroyed the Sacred shrine of Santiago de Campostella and slaughtered hundreds of Christians there. At that point Sancho the Great, as king of a small Christian kingdom, united a group of Christian kingdoms and defeated and killed Al Mansur. That was the beginning of the end of the Moorish domination of Spain. At the beginning of the year 900 Christendom was shrunk into a small part of Europe and there were more universities in Spain than in Europe. In the space of little over a hundred years surrounding the year 1000 the Moors were driven back extensively in Spain by Christian armies, St. Stephen converted the pagan Magyars and most of the pagan Norsemen converted to Christianity. And there was the reaction of the crusades. It was a remarkable turnaround. A terrific account of it can be found in Jimmy Reston’s “The Last Apocalypse.”

The whole Spanish national identity is bound up with the doings of Pelayo and the miracle of Compostela (Campus Stellae, starry field, after the miraculous vision).
That’s also why the Spanish battle cry was always “Santiago”(Saint James).
It was modified in the 13th century at Las Navas de Tolosa, with the modern formula “Santiago, y cierra Espana”, because for the first time (and the last I think) all the Spanish monarchs (Castile/Leon- Ferdinand of Castile was technically the heir of Leon -, Navarre, Aragon, Portugal) were present on the same field on the same side, so for the first time the army charged as united Hispania.

Spain was just the western flank of World War Islam.

And a rare victory that took 781 years to complete, from 711 until 1492.

Perhaps you should inform our congress critters of that fact, one by one.
