America was first attacked by Muslim terrorists in the late 1700s.

I guess it would have to have been the late-1700s, by definition. :)

Those were just plain old pirates though. I understand we bribed them for a time then kicked their collective butts when that did not work out. History repeats itself I guess...

Not true. Note the quote in my original "question" post above about their justification for their acts; it sounds just like today's jihadist crowd.
