| Now, you know whom & what the Muslims have targeted for destruction, ever since the 600s CE. Well, we're tired of it, squared & cubed. |
In this series, Ishmaelites, Saracens, Muhammadans, and Muslims are defined as one in the same, in terms of religious beliefs & practice. In fact, the word, Muslim, means, "one who submits." Thus, a Muslim is one who seeks to get everyone to submit to his doctrine and beliefs, in the name of his definition of the Supreme Being whom the Muslim calls, Allah. More specifically, Allah is Al-ilāh. The "ilāh" part of Al-ilāh means, "the Deity."
The War Within the Muslim Religion ... going back to the start
Even within the Muslim religion there was no unity. Throughout the history of the Muslim religion, the Shiites and the Sunnis were at odds with each other. In fact, Sunni Ottomans of Türkiye and the Shiites of Persia fought 11 wars between each other, from 1505 to 1823. Both sides won 5 wars, lost 5 wars, and tied one.
Then comes the Sufi Muslims which are said to be the sect magnetized toward peacefulness. There is also the Ibadi Muslim sect which believes that any man who achieves holiness can be made a ruling caliph. Even though Ibadi Muslims are seen as extremists, they also have a degree or two of democratic tendencies.
The Sunnis are the vast majority of Muslims. The Shiites are second in population. The Sufis & Ibadis are significant minorities.
All in all, the Muslim religion has a track record of invasion, violence, looting, and enslaving others. Violence & Slavery is the Muslim Religion in practice. In fact, as soon as the politically reformed Muammar Gaddafi was tortured to death in 2011, the slave trade had a resurgence in Muslim Libya.
Even in 2025, Christians were heavily persecuted by Muslims. It's not a matter of dusty history books. It's a matter of Current Events.
Barack Obama called 2011 "the Arab Spring." No. It was a continuation of the 1,400 year old Muslim trend which began as follows:
Firstly, there was the invasion of Persia, in 633. Then:
In addition, it was in 846 AD (or CE) when Muslims attacked the outskirts of ROME. Then, in 902 CE (or AD), the Muslims successfully captured parts of Southern Italy and Sicily.
In summary, the events of the 7th to 11th Century, alone, show that the Muslims were never nice people who believed in the motto, "Live and let live." Their message was, "Submit or die!"
So, after a plea was made by Alexios I to the Vatican, at the latter half of the 11th Century, it was surmised that some counter-measure against a constant military aggressor had to be done east of Rome, lest Greece be fully conquered, with Venice or Malta being next on the Muslim invasion list, and with the Vatican being attacked after that.
Christians were repeatedly the victims of the Muslims throughout the centuries. They had to fight back, being that, time after time, Muslims invaded their countries, even into the 1400s, the 1500s, and the 1600s.
This included the 1456 Ottoman Siege of Belgrade which the Roman Catholic "Black Army" eventually won. This also included the Muslims' 1529 failed Siege of Vienna which would be followed by the second failed Siege of Vienna, in 1683. Incidentally, Vienna was very influential in the Holy Roman Empire. Therefore, an attack on Vienna was an all-out attack on Roman Catholicism itself.
This trend of Muslim Aggression furthermore included the most emotionally dramatic historic event one can find, namely the 1565 Siege of Malta which included 40,000 Muslim attackers, 6,500 of whom were the elite Janissary Troops. They were all carried on 200 Muslims ships. Barack Obama never told you this, either.
Of course, Malta was the second ultimate prize for the Muslims, with the Vatican being Muslim Prize Number One.
As a point of curiosity, the Algerian naval commander, Turgut Reis, died on September 11th, marking the end of the Siege of Malta. He is also known as Admiral Dragut.
Furthermore, the SECOND SIEGE of Vienna was started by the Muslim forces on September 11, 1683. Plus plus plus, the Battle of Zenta occurred on September 11, 1697. That was when a Roman Catholic prince intercepted & defeated a Muslim army that was intent on recapturing Roman Catholic Hungary, for the Ottoman Empire. In as much, did you ever wonder why the NYC Trade Tower Terrorists chose September 11th as their D-Day of Destruction?
Six Years after the failed siege of Malta, the Muslims
attacked Christendom with 67,000 military men, by sea
Shortly after the Malta Siege came the Battle of Lepanto in 1571, where the Roman Catholic Holy League decimated the advancing Ottoman fleet, in the Gulf of Patras. This attempted invasion of European Christendom included 278 ships, 222 of which were Muslim Galleys, and 56 of which were Muslim Galliots. Needless to say, Barack Obama NEVER told you this aspect of Muslim history, either.
