#6 Because Muslims don't swim... Paraphrasing "The Red Green Show." Canada lost half its navy. One of its two canoes sank. Sorry, a typical Minnesota Iron Range joke. |

#5 In Churchill's 1899 book ‘The River War', about Britain's 19th Century war in Sudan, he included a passage condemning Islam that says: “No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith." He commented at length regarding the fiendish Mohammadan in 'River Wars' but this short sentence captures the gist. My Emphasis added. |
