They had got as far as Spain by the time the ever dosy Europeans got their act together and realized this was now a choice between fighting for survival or succumbing. You say it like it was the other way around. A very popular myth in the Muslim world of today....maybe once it was prouder than that, I don't know. But accountability at the cultural level is not an Islamic strong suite in our time. Look at our guest right here. Bizarre that he pretends everything is ok. It isn't....Everywhere Muslims have settled in Europe is an unfolding disaster. There's no respect or regard for being in another peoples beloved lands and culture.
