| 2005-05-23 |
| Moderators: Please delete if you think this advert for Robert Spencer's new book is inappropriate. The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) (Regnery Publishing) by Jihad Watch director Robert Spencer is now available for pre-ordering at Amazon.com. Amazon has it listed as coming out on September 25, but I am told that it will actually be available on August 8. At least as things stand now. The cover says: You think you know about Islam and the Crusades. But did you know: • The Crusades were defensive conflicts • Muslim persecution of Christians has continued for 13 centuries -- and still goes on • Islam teaches that Muslim must wage war to impose Islamic law on non-Muslim states • American Muslim groups are engaged in a huge cover-up of Islamic doctrine and history • Today's jihad terrorists have the same motives and goals as the foes of the Crusaders • Muslims are killing non-Muslims for their beliefs -- in Western countries, today What's with the little pig at the top? Politically Incorrect Guide. Get it? This book is the second in a projected large series of Politically Incorrect Guides, of which the pig is the mascot. |

| #1 The Crusades were defensive conflicts IMO this statement is incorrect in regards to the First Crusade. I have read several books on this, and though religious ferver and doctrine as well as "geopolitical" considerations were a significant basis for it, to a great extent the First Crusade was driven by plain old out and out adventurism and even greed on the part of the nobles and political interests involved. |
