Ah yes the entrenched notion of the Golden Age of the Caliphate in Spain, an article of faith i believed in until along came a book called "The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise" by Fernandez-Morera. It wasn't such a paradise if you weren't a highly placed islamic muckety muck. I got as far as the lie that there wasn't any such thing as Israel before 1948. oh really? There's a little thing called the merneptah stele aka the israel stele with words on it saying something bad i presume, about israel, from the iron age of egypt.

Excellent video! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this, Jimy. I watched the Netanyahu and the YNH you linked and was preparing a response, so this will be good to add to it!
