Christian warriors decisively halted Islamic conquests across Europe through epic battles, safeguarding Western civilization from total domination—a timeless lesson in defending faith and homeland against relentless invasion.
Early Victories Halt the Tide
Charles Martel led Frankish forces to victory at the Battle of Tours in 732, defeating Umayyad commander Abd el-Rahman Al Ghafiqi and his army of 40,000 to 60,000. Martel’s 1,500 heavy cavalry exploited terrain advantages near Poitiers, ending Muslim raids into France that had sacked cities like Carcassonne and Nîmes. This battle preserved the Frankish heartland, enabling the Carolingian Empire’s rise and blocking deeper penetration into Western Europe. Such underdog triumphs underscored Christian resilience against superior numbers driven by jihad ideology.
Sparking the Reconquista in Iberia
Pelayo secured the first Christian win at Covadonga in 722 against Umayyad forces in Asturias, Spain. This symbolic victory birthed the Kingdom of Asturias and launched the 700-year Reconquista, culminating in Granada’s fall in 1492. Warriors like El Cid captured Valencia in 1094, pushing back relentless Muslim incursions that began with Iberia’s conquest in 711-715. These efforts expelled Islamic rule, unified Spain under Christian monarchs, and restored traditional European values against foreign domination.
Raids by figures like Almanzor in 997 devastated sites like Compostela, burning churches and enslaving clerics. Christian coalitions countered with determination, leveraging feudal militaries and papal support to reclaim territories fragmented since Rome’s fall.
Naval and Crusader Defenses Secure the Faith
Christian fleets triumphed at Ostia in 849, repelling Muslim naval raids that threatened Rome after Sicily’s fall in 827-831. Pope Urban II’s call at Clermont in 1095 rallied the First Crusade (1096-1099), capturing Jerusalem from Seljuk Turks following Byzantine pleas after Manzikert in 1071. The Holy League’s victory at Lepanto in 1571 crippled Ottoman sea power, containing Balkan advances and fostering secure Renaissance trade routes. These actions preserved Christian demographics and culture across Europe.
Historians regard Tours as decisive in halting Western advances, though raids persisted briefly at Narbonne. Long-term, these battles shaped Europe’s ethno-religious map, boosted papal authority, and delayed Islamic dominance, influencing the Enlightenment and beyond. In today’s era under President Trump, with borders secured against modern invasions, these stories remind us of the enduring fight for sovereignty and family values.
And now Western Progressive Politicians, both in North America and in Europe, have given in to Muslim Mass Immigration of military-age Muslim Legal and illegal immigrants into what is left of the Christian World on both sides of the Atlantic.
Islam is taking over both Europe and North America through immigration. These newcomers bear no allegiance to basically Christian Europe or America. They intend to take over in the name of Allah.
Western politicians in America, the U.K., and Europe are all basically too stupid to even
vaguely comprehend why they have so foolishly allowed it to happen in the name of these Anti-Christian elements of Muslim fanaticism.
Pandering to militant immigrants who are followers of a Religion intent on destroying Christians and the entirety of Christianity is an extreme political folly of Western Times
on both sides of the Atlantic – which seems to be ruled by falsely oprinistic fools at best.
