The 'War on Islam' is just a bogieman that some Muslims resort to believing in when they can't take the fact that it is their fault that the Ummah is how it is today. Believing that everybody is persecuting and conspiring and trying to destroy you somehow makes you feel that you are always in the right, special. It also makes things a whole lot more simple to explain. The truth is that the real beast is not out in the jungle, but inside all of us.

He was a monster though, just as bad as Hitler. How can anybody admire him?

It was a gag, Fishman. :) The National Geographic article is interesting, though.

North Malasian is right, I think he is something of a hero to nomadic horsemen.

In fact they preserved his grand-tent (ruling centre) and dedicated a museum for him.

I dont think the Germans/Austrians are doing the same for Hitler.

hola

actually that is largely myth... genghis khan was much more sophistocated than history remembers him. he established history's largest multiethnic empire that allowed completely free religious expression, used paper money on a grander scale than ever before, established trade networks still alive today which brought many interesting ideas and items from asia to europe (like pants) and established stable governments... the last descendant of Khan to rule a nation died in the 20th century.

he was also a fair conqueror (by conqueror's standards) he offered cities capitulation, whereby he would pay off their debts, their property and practices would not be interfered with and they would live under the protection and prosper under the trade of his empire. he was always careful to send emissaries that represented the people to whom he was speaking... christians who spoke the local languages in europe, muslims who spoke arabic or turkic langauges in the muslim world...

there is a really good book, 'Khan and the making of the modern world' or something to that effect, that i read a little while ago... it's worth reading, very very interesting!

que Dios te bendiga
