Just in case you think the Islamofascist thing is merely a problem of modern times. Click on the link above for the whole poem (long). Or here for the rest of Chesterton's works. It's worth the time and trouble.

There's a Polish village near Istanbul. They're all Poles, all Christians there. These Poles sought refuge a few centuries ago, and they found it with us "islamofascists."

Just finished the Two Towers video as I started to read this. Goose flesh reading. Thanks for posting Chesterton.
