Here's your History minute

 

As Islamic supremacists in Algeria attempt to seize power, galvanized by the success of their jihadist brethren in north Africa in the wake of the "Islamic Spring", it bears remembering:

197 years ago today in American History - War declared against Algiers, year 1815. Commodore Stephen Decatur was sent in command of a squadron of ten warships to attack the Algerian naval force in the Mediterranean. (thanks to Urban Infidel)

Lest we not forget the first and second foreign war that American engaged in were Muslim wars. So when Islamic supremacists and their stooge in the White House tell you that Muslims have always been a part of the American experience, they are not entirely wrong.
