The History of Jihad makes it clear that most of what people in the U.S. think they know about Muhammad, Islam in general, and Islam’s bloody record throughout history, is wrong. The most shocking portions of this book detail the centuries-long and astonishingly bloody jihad against India. The Muslim invaders did not consider the Hindus of India to be “People of the Book” (the Quran’s designation for Jews, Christians, and several other groups), and so they treated them with appalling harshness and laid waste across the Indian subcontinent, destroying Hindu temples and building triumphal mosques wherever they could. Even when the Hindus were granted honorary “People of the Book” status, because there were simply too many of them to kill, the Muslims continued to behave toward them with exceptional brutality.
Spencer is one of the first in the Western world to tell this story, and he does so in the words of people who were there. The History of Jihad is full of the accounts of Muslim chroniclers who watched the jihadis slake their lust for blood and recorded their deeds for posterity, gleefully recounting their brutality as if it were heroism and martial glory.

" If more of our policymakers knew this history, they would be formulating more realistic and more effective policies, both domestic and foreign, to deal with the jihad threat."
No, they would not. They are part of the problem and would allow Muhammadans in regardless. They DO know without reading the book. They've been told over and over in life and choose to ignore the truth. Reading and damn book won't change that. It's not ignorance that motivates the left it's the desire for power. They would be just as happy having moslems take over America as they would wit communists taking over America. As long as it's no longer white, Christian men they think they win. That is until the heads start to roll and there's nobody left to save them but a transvestite pajama boy. That's about the time a huge and resounding "OH F**K" will be heard in heaven.
