Description: Bill Maher, Newt Gingrich, Michelle Bachmann, the Pentagon, the NYPD, and pretty much everyone on Fox News want you to be very worried about Islam. They portray the religion as a fundamentally violent religion that is developing in a scary way. This video uses some very basic history to show why that is ridiculous.
