Those Crusades - Who Caused Them?
by Joyce Cook, Letter to Editor: Todays Muslim terrorist attack in France is nothing new. It is just the latest chapter in the 1,400-year-old history of Islamic jihad. With that in mind, is there any wonder why the Crusades occurred?
The propaganda that has been force fed to Western Civilization is that the Christians were the big, bad aggressors. On the contrary, the Crusades were a defensive war, the Wests belated response to the Muslim conquest of two-thirds of the Christian world. After 400 years of Islamic jihad the Christian world was fed up and retaliated.
An interesting video on YouTube that explains this is called Why We Are Afraid, A 1400 Year Secret by Dr. Bill Warner. It would be well worth your time.
What is almost as disturbing as the violence of jihadists is the assistance given to them by some of our own people. Many liberal leaning people have a propensity for disparaging anything to do with Western culture or traditions. This is true even though they have prospered greatly and lived freer here than many people in Muslim countries could ever dream about.
Yet, these people who claim they are for womens rights argue that for women to be forced to wear a burka is their religious right. I have heard this with my own ears. Burkas worn in Western countries are meant to intimidate non-Muslim women. If you ever encounter someone wearing a burka it is a truly gruesome sight to see a human being encased in a black cloth coffin.
These liberal thinkers are the same people who see nothing wrong with submerging a across in urine and calling it art because they get pleasure from insulting Christians. In our culture we dont savagely murder people for such immature displays and Im glad we dont.
However, they balk at criticizing any aspect of Islam, including the stoning of women to death, forced child marriage, female genital mutilation or even beheadings. To hear the liberals tell it, that is just their culture and we have no right to criticize it. What hypocrites!
Potential immigrants to this country need to understand that they are expected to assimilate, and not try to force us into living like seventh century barbarians. It aint happening.
Too many Americans have died for our freedom for us to throw it all away to satisfy political correctness.
