RW'ers will tell us that we are in a war of civilizations against Islam, that this is how Muslims have always been and will always be like.
But, is this true?
Muslims have been dealt with, both positively and negatively, ever since its inception.
Some negative meetings include:
Crusades Barbary Wars Colonialism World War II
These situations were battles that involved our Civilization and the Islamic World, in the Crusades, in the Barbary Wars, it was us against Pirates who were Muslim, Europeans colonized many countries that had Muslim populations, and in World War II, we ended up going into several countries that had Muslim populations.
And during these confrontations, there were no suicide bombings, no long lasting Insurgencies that never showed signs of fading, no attacks on civilians, in the Crusades, the Muslims were far more moral than the Christian Invaders were. But, something changed in the mid to late 20th Century, the question is, what was it?
