- I'm not a Muslim (as I think you probably guessed from my name), but my travels around the Islamic world have given me opportunities to sample the views of people who have lived under these experiments in extreme Islamic rule -- and what I've heard is mostly a lot of complaining.

Go to 1172, when rabbits are introduced to England. They devour the thickets and brush of the island, making the dense and unwalkable forest between the old walls of London and the newer port at Westminster easier to traverse. That walk once took a day. I did it in an hour and a half because I was loafing.
