This is indeed the amazing part. Islam was the religion of science and enlightenment - they were masters of mathmatics, astronomy, etc.... They preserved many of the old texts from the Greeks and Romans.... all of this while Europe was in the dark ages...


The roles are reversed now.... Globalism is not going to be stopped. They cannot win in the long term... they will be incorproated in the world community if they like it or not.
