Wahh! They Started It!

Soft heads blaming this war on the "West's oppression of Muslims going back to the First Crusade." A tragic lie blindly repeated as fact and never challenged.

The truth of the matter is this war did not start with the First Crusade (1100 AD). It started when the Muslim Moors invaded Europe through Spain in the 700s. They were well on their way to conquering all of Europe when, in one of the most pivotal moments in history (think Thermopylae pivotal), the Moors were met and stopped by Charles "The Hammer" Martel at the Battle of Tours in central France. They retreated and eventually settled on controlling Spain. Eventually, they abandoned the continent entirely. It wasn't until 350 years after the invasion, a newly confident Europe began the first of its own crusades.

What caused the aggressive expansion of Islam? No, it was not a reaction to imperialistic Christianity. Nobody from Europe committed any sort of atrocity on an Islamic people or city. Nobody was conquered, no nation subjugated. Instead, an empire simply died. Nature abhors a vacuum. And the power vacuum left in Northern Africa by Rome was soon filled by the emerging Muslim religion. Unlike Christianity, which is a spiritual movement, early Islam was the perfect marriage of wealth, politics, and war all committed to the glory of Allah. And his glory set the world on fire.

Don't get me wrong, history has shown it was the Caliphates and the Moors that kept the flame of civilization lit during the dark centuries following the Roman Empire. While Europe toiled, medicine, astronomy, science, math, philosophy, exploration all flourished in the Muslim world. I find it ironic how the roles are now reversed.

There. That feels better.
