Nearly 2 hours but very interesting. Muslims came, saw and conquered; We protected the Jews and minorities, introduced civilization to Europe and built some of the best architecture in the World, Spain went from a backwater outpost of neighbouring kingdoms to a formidable polity in World politics. What happens next? We become our own enemy and the Crusaders capitalize. The rest is history.
Still funny how people think we are an intolerant religion. No other nation were as welcoming as us. "Convert or leave" is a Crusader memorandum. How some Muslim extremists think this is acceptable i will never know. We were liberators in the Middle Ages, not oppressors.

Interesting documentary on drugs. Some addicts need help but it is surprising to know some addicts are forced into their addiction by governments uprooting them from their communities and presenting obstacles in their path when they try to live like decent human beings. Poverini.
