Reader comment on item: Caliph Ibrahim's Brutal Moment
Submitted by PHILIOR (United States), Aug 5, 2014 at 14:40
Fascinating excourse. Thanks. You predictions a recorded, although you stopped short of guessing the longevity of current Califate. Hopefully its not for long till your vision comes true.
Fortunately, they underestimate the ease of taking over (western part of) Russia. All it takes is to bribe the Kremlin and the top of Russian Orthodox church. I know, sounds paradoxical. Why not all of Russia? Because its eastern part will be taken over by Chinese.
The numbers 750 and 940 could better be specified as 750AC and 940AC not to make readers pose and guess.
