Iraq Is NOT A War
From a blog about the Iraq war, a bit on World War One, the Ottoman Empire, and Islam
.
So let's fast forward to present day. The most crushing defeat for the Islamic cause was the end of World War One and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. The Global Caliphate had already been in retreat from Western colonial powers. Was Islam no longer the True Religion? Could the Prophet (pbuh) not be the exclusive voice of Allah? Unthinkable and intolerable. Islam must eventually rule the world because Allahu ackbar. Then came the worst possible insult. The Western colonial powers set up a Jewish colony in the Fertile Crescent and called it the State of Israel. For the devout believer in the Global Caliphate it was a blessing sent from Allah. It was something Muslims had been lacking for decades, if not centuries: Focus.
