    Cultural humiliation is the cause more so than poverty me thinks. If you're whole life you've been told that Monotheism 3.0 is the only true religion and yet Monotheism 2.0 has been kicking your ass for hundreds of years and now 1.0 for the past 70 give or take, that's gonna make your civilization pretty pissed off and turn out more and more jihad bros.

    I was told Islam had the most advanced society and were inventing shit like crazy. All peaceful and stuff. Then the crusades came and ruined it so they had to stay stuck in 1095 and haven’t figured out how to get going again. That’s just what i’m hearing. Don’t twist.
    They were peacefully conquering over 500 Christian cities by force and putting people to death for their religion. They just stole shit and murdered people. It is their way of life. They sure were quiet a long time, wonder why?

    They added Algebra to an already centuries-old, well developed field of math. They didn’t invent “modern math.” The Chinese, Greeks and Europeans own 80% of it.

    Didnt the babylonians invent that?

    The mongols fucked up advanced muslims 100 times more than the crusades ever could've. Pyramids made of skulls and shit in whatever the empire that proceeded Syria was.

    You could actually make an argument good ole Ghengis set them back 1000 years. Europe got pretty fucking lucky the general Subotai went back to Mongolia when Khan died....the "scouting" force he commanded had just spanked one of the strongest European armies at that time.
