I rather liked it...

That sure beat watching Michael Moore advocate the collective castration of America.

As for the part about hunting down muslims, that is CLEARLY hyperbole. If you have any understanding or Arabic culture (which Islam is an expression of in reality), then you would know that it is a tribal culture that values blind obedience to authority, cruelty to the weak, and contempt for peacemakers. The video merely makes the point in pithy fashion that trying to make nice with people with those beliefs invites getting your head sawed off with a dull knife....and you're useless pleading and subsequent slaughter posted on the internet for liberals to amuse themselves to.

So, HD, where did you acquire your expert knowledge of Arabic culture?

The Crusades, you say?

"The year was 1095 CE, William the Conqueror had united England under one crown 30 years earlier. The French had been dividing properties amongst their sons for generations, causing bloodshed between brothers over small pieces of real estate. In reaction, Pope Urban II expanded "The Truce of God", which outlawed fighting from Sunday to Wednesday, and banned fighting involving priests, monks, women, laborers and merchants on any day of the week. Italy was a collection of city-states, constantly being overrun by invading hordes, the latest of which were the Normans, who had just started to become "civilized".

There was also the Byzantine empire, ruling from Constantinople, whose emperor at this time was Alexius Comnenus. To his East, the Turks were rapidly encroaching on his empire, and had begun attacking pilgrims on their way to - and in - Jerusalem, causing him great distress. He wrote to his friend Robert, the Count of Flanders, in 1093, telling him about supposed atrocities committed by the Turks on the Christian pilgrims, and Robert passed this letter on to Pope Urban II. Urban, an opportunist, saw this as a perfect way to solve some of his local problems. He personally promoted a Holy Crusade to reclaim the Holy Lands from the barbarian Turks. Thus, the First Crusade was launched in 1096 CE.

What followed is a story of war, holy visions, unholy alliances, promises made with fingers crossed, sieges and slaughters, the details of which fill volumes."

Gee, I guess history really does repeat. Different opportunist this time though. :)

i wouldnt get too cocky dittman,it takes several years to plan a major terrorist attack and it hasnt been that long since 9/11.has the US occupation of afghanistan and iraq made the world any safer? i think its way to early to tell/gloat.

Different indeed...

I don't see the connection between the US invasion of Iraq, and the small number of significant terrorist attacks elsewhere.

It would seem to me the small number of terror attacks against the US & its allied interests recently has much to do with an unprecedented level of cooperation between government agencies worldwide rather than the invasion of Iraq.

Since the US put men on the moon, Earth has not been invaded by aliens from outer space, but I don't think the two are related. Why do you appear to?
