So much for preventing terrorism by invading those countries. We have more rabid islamists now than we ever did before. Many of them were held prisoner by us. Thats what we get for not shooting them

Watc hed something on history channel about the ottoman empire last night. It was Totally muslim , around 1500 ad. They ruled a huge amount of the world and totally wiped out christianity in many parts. Killed constantine and turned constantinople into a muslim city. These muslims today believe they are going to be greater than the ottoman empire. They see a world that bows down to allah.
