Brilliant. You should apply for a professorship at Liberty University.

Hitler didn't have a degree at all, I think he may have even dropped out of HS so I guess you are right, education is not a necessity to be a mad man.
Interesting point to be made on Islam
Robert Spencer seems to believe Muhammad never existed. You can see various youtube videos on his reasons why. Personally after looking at everything i find myself more in the camp of he did not and Islam added him after the fact.
I could give a **** about the ME and frankly maintain that we need to get the hell out of there. The US will never understand their culture and those people are not going to change. Let them work out their own problems.
I'll agree with having as little to do with them as possible but,
Will they leave us alone?
History is not very encouraging.
Informative video. If you don't have the time, it basically states Christians were a majority in Egypt, rest of N Africa, Turkey, Iraq, Iran, even into Afghanistan. That culture was rich. Egypt was the breadbasket of the Mediterranean - Syria was the MIT of the region. Then Islam pushed out violently like ISIS is today into the ME and parts of Europe. Christians and Jews had to convert or die or maybe pay a tax. It was so bad that the Orthodox Church was barely on speaking terms with the Catholic Church, but still begged Rome for help. In other words, the video maintains The Crusades was a defensive war. Goes on to the early 20th century when one million Armenian Christians were killed in Turkey - genocides.
What “community”? By 2005, there were fewer than 150 Jews in Tangiers, almost all of them very old. By 2015, it is estimated that there will be precisely none. Whenever I mention such statistics to people, the reaction is a shrug: why would Jews live in Morocco anyway? But in 1945 there were some 300,000 in this country. Today some 3,000 Jews remain—i.e., about one per cent of what was once a large and significant population. That would be an unusual demographic reconfiguration in most countries: imagine if Canada’s francophone population or Inuit population were today one per cent of what it was in 1945. But it’s not unusual for Jews. There are cemeteries like that on the rue du Portugal all over the world, places where once were Jews and now are none. I mentioned only last week that in the twenties, Baghdad was 40 per cent Jewish. But you could just as easily cite Czernowitz in the Bukovina, now part of Ukraine. “There is not a shop that has not a Jewish name painted above its windows,” wrote Sir Sacheverell Sitwell, visiting the city in 1937. Not today. As in Tangiers, the “community” resides in the cemetery.
