The Turks never have forgotten the Battle of Vienna.

"The Turks never have forgotten the Battle of Vienna."

However, they do seem to have forgotten Targoviste where Vlad the Impaler left "the forest of the impaled" where an Ottoman writer says twenty thousand impaled corpses greeted the Sultans army.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the Turks ran into another guy just like Vlad if they decide to move into the Balkans.

Anyone think Europe has the faith necessary to defeat the Muslims like they did in 1683?

This is one example (from Gary Potter (in “Saint Mary of Victory – The Historical Role of Our Lady in the Armed Defense of the Faith”):

“When it became known that no fewer than 300,000 Turks were advancing on the imperial capital, Pope Innocent ordered that rosaries be recited in the religious houses and churches of Rome. The same prayers of supplication were offered throughout the Empire.”
