DAR AL HARB/ISLAM: THE JIHAD, THE RECONQUISTA, THE JIHAD

Christian tolerance of Muslims created woes for Serbia, expert

...

As for America, says great Lewis: “If you said or did anything against the Americans, not only would there be no punishment; there might even be some possibility of reward, as the usual anxious procession of diplomats and politicians, journalists and scholars and miscellaneous others came with their usual pleading inquiries: ‘What have we done to offend you? What can we do to put it right?’”

Indeed, in the wee hours after the 9/11 tragedy, the family of Osama bin Laden was rounded up and flown across the US then across the world and into safety.

At the American Enterprise Institute 2007 Irving Kristol Lecture, Bernard Lewis drew a standing ovation from a packed house of conservative luminaries, including Vice President Dick Cheney, to whom he gave a lecture describing Muslim migration to Europe as an Islamic attack on the West and defended the Crusades as “a late, limited and unsuccessful imitation of the jihad” that spread Islam across much of the globe.

Lewis then touched upon the virtues of tolerance, something Washington extended immensely to the family of the terrorists:

“In the former Ottoman lands in southeastern Europe, the [Christian] leaders of what you might call the reconquest were somewhat more tolerant [then Christians of Western Europe] but not a great deal more. Some Muslim minorities remained in some Balkan countries, with troubles still going on at the present day. If I say names like Kosovo or Bosnia, you will know what I am talking about.”

So on 9/11 Washington was flying bin Laden’s to safety, today Washington wants Bosnian Serbs to accept Muslim domination in Bosnia; Serbia is being diplomatically molested to agree to give up part of its territory because Muslims of Kosovo demand it…
