Are you referring to the islamic expansion in the middle ages or specifically to the Crusades?
Yeah, some advocate that the matter between the western and islamic world isn't settled yet. But I really don't see a direct connection between the Taleban and Saladin... BTW, according to historians Saladin was a better christian than most of the europeans who invaded their land. On 6/13/06, petetheisen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Question is, do YOU know the question is more complex than you are letting on? The Muslims were trouble way before there was a US or a US foreign policy, in case you have forgotten. Killing them all is not necessary, only the militants need be killed. Regards, Pete
