CALLING ALL HISTORIANS

. . . from this thread:

BRITISH MOSLEM CLERIC says it's OK to shoot or kill nonMoslems

HAS THERE EVER BEEN
in any culture
at any age . . .

the phenomenon where
a people, a nation,
invited willingly
into their midst,
sustained, protected,
played polite games with,
as equal citizens,

THOSE SWORN
TO DESTROY
?????THEM?????

HAS IT EVER BEEN--at all

HAS IT EVER BEEN--anything like currently is occurring in Western societies with the Islamists????

Do you know of any other comparable historical idiocy?

I'm really curious if anyone is knowledgeable from a professional standpoint and can give a comment from the sweep of all recorded history. Or maybe someone who's read Will and Ariel Durant's life's work.

The last paragraph (starting with the words "A civilization...) of the following article is the most meaningful:

No Civilization is Immortal
