People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

Know the enemies of a civil society by their public behaviour, by their fraudulent claim to be liberal-progressive, by their propensity to lie and, above all, by their attachment to authoritarianism.

Not to mention, Islam popped up just as the Roman Empire folded - The lessons of conquest, deprivation and slavery would have been very fresh still and clearly, well learned.


The Roman occupiers of Jurusalem persecuted the jews and many christian sects. When the muslims negotiated the bloodless surrender of Jerusalem from the Romans, the first thing they did was remove the dung that had been piled on the temple mount, allowed the previously banned jews back in and resumed previously banned christian pilgrimages.

When the crusaders conquered Jerusalem in 1099 it was in a blood bath - at least 10 thousand men, women and children were summarily slaughtered. Then when Saladin reconquered it, he gave safe passage to the christians to their northern kingdoms.

I'm guessing the video didn't mention any of that?


All true and recorded Gandalf except they weren't really Romans by that time, more like a Byzantine rabble of mixed breeds.

Brilliant, make sure you watch it from start to finish, if you can't be bothered absorbing all of the information contained in videos like this then you really have no right to comment.


Could write an abbreviation of it here please?
