I kind of doubt that. Genghis Khan's cavalry was useless in the forested and mountainous areas of western and southern Europe. And also the extreme north (Novgorod) stood out against his horde.

I just wish Hulagu Khan had effectively wiped out Islam (he destroyed Baghdad and the CAliph and could have easily leveled Mecca and Medina)

To be honest I think the Mongols would have run wild throughout all of Europe. Good point about Islam. The Mongols should have finished wiping it out. Unfortunately, some of the Mongols eventually converted to the moon God.
