re: J.P.'s(ill educated) opinion piece

In all truth, I should also have attacked this tripe:

"In the last CRUSADES, the west briefly held Muslim cities. However, MUSLIMS always got them back. "

While it is not clear if the author was talking about through all of history or only the time immediately with-in the crusades,Islam's loss of Spain clearly disproves his (half-baked) theory. As well, while Muslims now number around a million in Bulgaria with their total is only a bit more than 12% of the full population and any honest history shows the fall of the Ottoman Empire in Bulgaria.
