    Yaroslav Trofimov, a reporter with The Wall Street Journal, talks about the 1979 siege of the Grand Mosque at Mecca in Saudi Arabia. It is the holiest site in Islam, and gunmen held it for two weeks. It was one of the events that gave rise to al-Qaida, and Yaroslav wrote about it in his book The Siege of Mecca.
    Thirty six years ago, hundreds of Islamic extremists walked into the Grand Mosque in Mecca. They slipped weapons into the holiest site in Islam, and they started one of the events of 1979 that still affects the Muslim world today.

    the Islamists started their career back in the 50s in Egypt, so that war started back in the 50s

    the difference is that they wanted a modern Islamic state without corruption, especially the west corruption over oil with the local dictators

    today it's about going back in time with a backward Islamic state,

    not sure there is a solution there, unless we are ready to comit a genocide

    ...which never stopped your kind before regarding sociopathic genocidal activities.

    Long history.

    I was not brought up disliking foreigners. Because I guess back then everyone came from one.

    Now I just dislike the Chicago Bears just because I'm a Cheese head.

    I guess I never really thought about how It would feel to be invaded by other peoples. Can't Imagine how the natives feel. Do know of a big shot type (VP) from Brittian
    That had his car battery die at a ball game. He got a lift from a coworker whom happened to be a big framed American Indian. He was a joker and told me he made mention of how his people were having a little cookout in Massachusetts when a bunch of boats showed up.

    No Pomy Joke Intended.
