Islam versus Europe

Unfortunately it said it in 1923, before the era of political correctness set in.

Islam alone of all the great religions of the human race was
born sword in hand. Islam has always relied on the sword,
and for thirteen hundred years the Mollah who reads the
Friday prayers in the Mosques wears a sword, even if only made
of wood, as a symbol of his creed. Today Turkey, having cheated
the Nemesis which four years ago seemed to have irretrievably
overtaken her, claims to speak in the name of Islam; and millions
of Mohammedans, including Indian Mohammedans, acclaim her
as the invincible sword of the Faith, whilst other millions of
Asiatics who are not Mohammedan hail her as the champion
and spearhead of an Asian revolt against the West.

This is a grave portent for all the Western nations that are in
close contact with the East; especially grave for Britain, who by a
singular procession of events has become a great Asiatic Empire
and rules in India alone over roughly a quarter of all the Mohammedans
in the world; and gravest of all when one looks back on
Turkey's record ever since she emerged into history.

From the time when the Turks streamed westward out of their
pagan homelands in Central Asia and picked up Islam on the way,
they have destroyed but never built. They destroyed Saracenic
civilization when they broke up all the early Mohammedan
States of Western Asia, and, wresting the leadership of Islam from
the more highly gifted Semitic Arabs, they impressed upon it the
baser stamp of their Turanian race. Stout fighters to the present
day, they have contributed nothing of their own to human
progress, nothing to science or art or literature, and what they
borrowed from Persians and Arabs they have degraded. The first
ten Sultans of the House of Othman were great conquerors with
some conceptions of statesmanship, but after them the power
passed to the effete and blood-stained creatures of the Seraglio
and to the corrupt Pashas of the Sublime Porte.

The devastating tide of Turkish conquest, sweeping over the
Christian kingdoms and principalities of South Eastern Europe,
became a formidable danger to Western civilization until it was
at last arrested outside the gates of Vienna in 1683. It then
swiftly receded.
