I believe it was Winston Churchill who commented that he would ally with Satan himself against the Gaineses.
“If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons.”

I forget the exact lenght of time but weren’t the muslims attacking and expanding for around 400 years before western Christian nations responded with the Crusades? Yet modern media always portrays Christianity as the aggressor.
Muslim expansion began with the Battle of Badr in 624. The Crusades were arguably a response to the Battle of Manzikert (1071), which was the Turkish invasion of the Eastern Roman Empire. The Turks were only nominally Muslim at that time. In 1258 the Mongols destroyed Baghdad and ended the Abbasid Caliphate. The Il-Khanate was also nominally Muslim. The Ottoman Turkish siege of Vienna was in 1683. The Ottoman Empire was destroyed at the end of WW1 in 1919. So technically the war went on continuously for 1295 years. After a little breather, I dunno. 1948?
Science was my main interest in school. History not so much.
Thank you for filling in a big gap.
It’s either a curse or a blessing, depending on how one views the course of my life, that I was always obsessively interested in pretty much everything. Studying science and history, you soon become aware of the history of technology, and how it does not conform with the general view of history presented by Progressive historians (or Neocon historians, for that matter). I like to point out the Bent Pyramid, out in the desert surrounded by the ruins of several collapsed pyramids. You picture some genius looking at his current project, suddenly going, “Wait! Wait! Angle of Repose! Right!”
In the latest round Muslims have taken over the suburbs around Paris, along with much of London and major parts of Berlin, Hamburg, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Brussels, Minneapolis, and Detroit.
A half century or so ago, I was in Indianapolis one night, getting drunk with some friends, when we decided every capital city should be named on the “polis” model. My favorite was Idahopolis, although Massachusettsipolis was a close second.
The Sydney suburb of Lakemba also.
It might be of interest that I married a Muslim.
I calculated that she was just inside the lowest tier of the spectrum Muslim.
Not a militant.
There were cultural issues later discovered.
She is still a great person.
My observation is, Muslim women seem surprisingly prickly, given the supposed patriarchal nature of Muslim society in general. On the other hand, all of the Muslim women I’ve known were either Turkish or Iranian, except for an Albanian girl I knew long ago (who was cute as the proverbial button).
Muslim families exert influences that Western Civ. can’t really overcome.
I tried to reach out. It wasn’t that much appreciated.
I’ve learned an important lesson, or more.
One, friends don’t behave like they’re not friends if they want friends.
” …influences that Western Civ. can’t really overcome.”
Oh, we are quite capable of overcoming. We just don’t fore the moment want to. We should want to. It’s the only way we can win and preserve our way of life.
