A Short History of Islam

Frank brings Bill Federer back to take us on a fascinating historical ride from the founding of Islam right up to the present day. Along the way Frank and Bill (mostly Bill!) provide insights into questions like:

* Why don’t our leaders understand the beliefs of groups such as the Taliban?

* How did Islam begin?

* Who was Muhammad and what did he do?

* How did Muslims conquer much of the Mediterranean in the first 100 years?

* What are the differences between Sunni and Shiite?

* What does “Peace” mean to the Taliban?

* How did the discovery of oil reinvigorate jihad and groups like the Taliban?

* Why would a four-star USAF General compare Trump supporters to the Taliban?

* Don’t all religions kill? How do Islam and Christianity compare?
