Depressing stuff given the evil nature of Islam.
I hold to the hope that Eastern Europe/Russia will resist...after all they experienced the horrors of islam first hand.
As for Italy and Spain, the Roman church will play a role in whether they capitulate or not. They have proven weak and unfaithful to their brothers and sisters in Christ before...question is will they prove as unfaithful again?
On a side note, I'm worried about the Christian art in these places. Will the Islamic radicals destroy Notre Dam, the Pi-eta, as the Taliban destroyed the Buddhist sculptures? What about Britain? Will they again be alone to fight this?
Poland: First to fight!
And win !
And Europe opened the doors themselves by militarily supporting islamists in Bosnia and Kosovo and bombing Serbs who were the first line of defense.
Read BAT YE'OR EURABIA The road to Munich for a logical explanation of this madness
Is that Slobieski?
Extremely frightening. I did find an encouraging writing in the local paper last weekend. Law Forces Danes to travel Love Bridge. Can't post the link anymore, but it was about Denmark cracking down on immigration, and mentions muslims.
The Siege of Vienna link:

The Battle of Vienna link:
http://www.metaweb.com/wiki/wiki.phtml?title=Vienna%2C_Austria
Please note the date of the battle: 12 September 1683.
That means on 11 September 1683, the Turkish Muslims were still in charge!
Coincidence? I don't think so.
Looks like Beslan had an effect on Poland. Soon, chechens will not be welcome anywhere in the world.
The sacking of Constantinople has opened the doors for Ottoman expansion into Europe. One has only to read open support Vatican offers to the Islamist expansion into Europe in the 1990s to find out that RC church has not learned anything from the past - Vatican dreams of destruction of Orthodox Christianity, even if such destruction will bring down Europe.
Actually the Brits have given asylum to a chechen terrorist and refuse to hand him over to Russia.
This may sound crazy but it's just food for thought. I'm a Christian but I don't usually spend too much time charting every world event as a precursor to the Apocalypse. I don't read Tim Lehay and I don't check the clouds for Jesus every ten minutes. Nevertheless, it's a bit interesting to note that many of the Apocalyptic texts in the Bible (both Old and New Testaments) list armies from Europe (along with several Middle Eastern nations) attacking the New Israel in the last days. This is especially clear in some of the stranger parts of Daniel. I know that the Europeans aren't exactly warm to the state of Israel but I couldn't see them launching an assault. They're just too "girlie" for that. But in a few decades, when the Prime Minister of France is named Mohammed or Salah, I wouldn't be bit surprised if they decided to "take care" of the Middle Easts only stable democracy. Again, I know it sounds crazy, but the whole of Europe seems to be marching in that direction.
In general, however the Italians outside of the vatican get along fine with the Orthodox Russkies and visit Alexy from time to time. They have told Alexy they think the pope is out of line.
So there may be hope from Italy.
You have every reason to be. Here is what Islamists have done in Kosovo, the place where La Renaissance was born:
The famous fresco of Christ - the Patron of Prizren The Church of the Holy Virgin of Ljevis before destruction by Albanians in March this year.
In the last 5 years Albanians have destroyed and damaged more than 150 ancient Christian churches and monasteries in the presence of UN and NATO troops.

What are the passages and what do they say?
It is a portrait of Jan 111 Sobieski, king of Poland, who led the forces who defeated the Muslims at Vienna. Charles Martel led the forces who turned back the Muslim forces at Poitiers. Ferdinand and Isabella finally drove out the Muslims from Spain after a 700 year struggle. Don John of Austria and Andrea Doria turned back Muslims at the naval battle of Lepanto.
