Jihad in the West - The Holy War that Isn't P6

Jihad in the West  by Paul Fregosi
Introduction: The Holy War That Isn't
Paragraph 6


For well over a 1,000 yrs the jihad has been first and foremost a fighting war, an imperialist form of war, like the wars of colonial or continental Rome or, more recently, of Britain, France, Spain, Germany, Russia, and the United States. The muslims make no distinction between religion and state, hence the "holy" tinge that their imperialist wars have acquired. Let us not be deceived by the religious coloring muslims gave to their territorial conquests. The jihad wars were sheer imperialism, just as ours were.
