History Lesson: Islam & Mafia

It is a shame, but so many in the world are being forced to repeat history as they have not studied and learned from it ! To assist you in helping yourself and others avoid this error I am providing the following historical lessons.

1. The first two waves of Islamic conquest were under the control of the Arabs and, after them, the Turks.
2. That expansion was stopped in Southern France in 732AD at the Battle of Tours, more restricted by the expulsion of all Muslims from the Iberian peninsula in 1492 and most strongly stopped when a Turkish army was defeated and sent fleeing from Vienna in 1683 (Less than 100-years before the USA declared its independence).
3. After the Battle of Vienna the Muslim world went into a decline as it was unable to compete in economic, military, scientific and other ways with the resurgent and surging West. Thereafter, many other areas of the world (eg Greece) were freed from the horrors of Islamic rule.
4. The Battle of Vienna was begun on "9/11" (1683AD) and some have thought that the terrorist attack on New York City as sponsored by Osama Ben Laden was executed on that date as a declaration-of-jihad and announcement to the West of a new surge of Islam.
5. If you examine a world map as to where acts of terrorism are being inflicted and who is responsible for initiating such acts, you will find that most (90%-plus?) are in those places where Muslims are in conflict with others and the acts of murder, genocide, rape, robbery and the other gifts-of-Islam are initiated by Muslims. [Most of the balance of such terrorism is associated with the dealers in such illegal drugs as cocaine].
6. If you wish to conduct a thought experiment, think of Islam as you would of such organizations as the Mafia or the Chinese crime syndicates known as Triads AND then consider the battles in the Gaza and Iraq as the same as the "wars" conducted by the families of the Mafia or the crime-clans of the Triads.
7. If you wish to avoid repetitions of the errors of the past, then do everything you can to convince as many as you can (eg Officials, teachers, editors, ministers-of-religion) that the lessons of history are such that responses to Islam should be as to any other criminal organization, using such force as is necessary to exterminate that threat.
