I assume you meant to have a "you" (meaning me) in that last sentence.
What did I say that makes you think I want to make it appear simple? These issues are anything but simple, at least to me. You and Newt are the ones making the simple, declarative statement that muslims build mosques at places of victory over the infidel. So far, I have seen no credible historical analysis to back up that clear, simple statement. I also have not seen anyone tie the current mosque plans to any such historical muslim custom. So far, all you have is Newt, and that ain't much.
You and Newt might be right. I just haven't seen the evidence.
