Interesting indeed.

Perhaps the most telling paragraph is:

"Its ambition is to terrorise the West into turning against its own Muslim citizens, and render it impossible for them to live here as equals: 'For then Muslims in the Crusader countries will find themselves driven to abandon their homes, and will go to live in the Caliphate.' "

I looks like they're winning.

Tragically so, like most extremists they will happily kill their own people or see them killed to further their own agenda.

All forms of extremism whilst on the surface look appealing, attractive and beneficial to its followers, but be they Nazism, Islamic extremism, Ultra orthodox Judaism, Socialism, Communism, Fascism and definitely early forms of Christianity will happily sacrifice the lives of its youngest and brightest to further their ideology, and the greatest and most vocal proponents of attacking ones enemies are usually the ones furthest away from the front line themselves. Stalin I think used to refer to his western cohorts as 'useful idiots'

See Dark age stupidity is not confined only to Islam, even in Israel some treat women like shit.

Impressed they bothered to write this. Nice to see what some people know already. Doesn't gloss over things like why the crusades happened or stuff like the battle of Vienna. Might open a few eyes as they say.
