19th century, died in 20th century historian, very insightful, who basically says Islam is our most persistent and formidable enemy and may explode at any time.
And he wrote that, I think, around 1928, when Islam was at its nadir, its absolute weakest vis-a-vis the West at the time.
This is the colonial era.
And, you know, he predicted it and lo and behold, here it is again, right?
Islam has exploded.
So that was the purpose of the sword and scimitar and it really went century after century, you know, and what's interesting to me and what I think the book shows is the unwavering continuity of hostility.
So you see from the very first chapter, the Battle of Yarmouk in 636 AD, the rationale that the Muslims gave to the Eastern Roman Empire, the Byzantines during that battle, was you're an infidel, our Quran says to fight you, enslave you, etc., etc., give you the three options, convert, fight, or die.
And you fast forward, the last real battle I cover is the First Barbary War, and the second, right around 1800 to 1815, and you find the same exact rationale at work.
Thomas Jefferson, you know, this great luminary, enlightenment luminary, who didn't really understand Islam, you know, the Muslims of Barbary, North Africa, had now been attacking American sailor vessels,
enslaving American soldiers.
And so Jefferson and Adams, John Adams, met with the ambassador from, I believe, Tripoli, Abdul something.
It's in my book.
And they asked him, why are you attacking us?
Why don't we get along?
Why don't we trade, et cetera?
And this guy, in Thomas Jefferson's extent letter, we still have to Congress.
He explains how this man told him, you know what?
It's in our Quran.
Our God, our prophet tell us you're the enemy.
We have to attack you.
