an established principle of Islam is conversion by conquest Probably true in the very VERY early part of their history. If you look at the Ottoman Empire, where the Padishah was also the head of the Muslim world (I forget the term), they never forced Islam on the populations they conquered but just taxed them. This is why eastern Europe is still Christian, although this empire stretched until Vienna at one point. The crusades, which annihilated Muslims and forced conversion of most. Eh? That is not the history I know <g> killeenroos.com
