The Siege of Malta in 1565 was a clash of unimaginable brutality, one of the bloodiest - yet most overlooked - battles ever fought. It was also an event that determined the course of history, for at stake was the very survival of Christianity.

And we are still continuing the struggle against the barbarian Islamofascists today.

I don’t know why I can’t read about Malta without first thinking of falcons and then of Sidney Greenstreet.

I want an M-79 that can launch gerbils as grenades. I shall call it “The Richard Gere”.

“We owe those knights.”

True. But not nearly as much as the Catholic Church owes them.

When the next Pearl Harbor takes place, political correctness will evaporate into a mist of blood and we will do what we need to do.

Sad that we have to wait for infamy to prod us into action, but that seems to be our temperment.

Two bowls of pasta later.....now, that was a good story. Very inspiring to keep the faith and to never give up. Give it your best to the very end. In essence, the world is under another siege by the Muzzies. Oooopps, the EU says that we’re not supposed to use that word.

What’s that saying? “Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it”? Something like that...

Thanks for posting a very powerful reminder about Muslim determination to rule the world by whatever means.

A hundred years earlier the West stood aside and let Constantinople fall to the Turks. It strikes me that the only reason Malta survived was because of the determination of a few in the face of the apathy of the many. Reminds me of today.
