Chancellor Merkel says Islam is part of Germany

Merkel said about Islam that Germans "should be open about it and say, `yes, it's part of us.'" She added that Christians should maybe start thinking and talking more about their own religion again "rather than having fear of Islam."

She still has a nice rack for a broad her age.

The Battle of Vienna was a hard-fought war with an uncertain outcome. The Turks nearly conquered the city. All that saved Europe was the arrival of a relief force headed by Polish King Jan Sobieski. Jan Sobieski and his troops won a major victory against the Turkish forces on September 11, 1683. The victory was so compete that Polish King Jan Sobieski purportedly described the windfall in a letter to his wife as follows:
"Ours are treasures unheard of ... tents, sheep, cattle and no small number of camels ... it is victory as nobody ever knew of, the enemy now completely ruined, everything lost for them. They must run for their sheer lives . . ."

Wow, and to think that the pope is German.

Brings up all sorts of questions.
