BTW, the Goths were no less invaders than the Muslims, when they entered Spain at the end of the Roman Empire. The Spaniards didn't kick our the Romans. But your first step should be to watch the film. If you care about the subject, tune in to your local PBS station (if you live in the States) watch the show, and then have an informed opinion, whatever might be. I did watch the show (as the director) and I learned a lot. Check it out. Thanks for your interest in the subject Amn

BTW, Christian martyrs to not kill to bear witness of their faith. From a political perspective, remember that the Arabs were the invaders to Spain and France The fact that they were 'nice' if you submit o them does not deny the point that they were invaders The Spaniards kicked out the Romans. And certainly, they did not want the Arabs either It would be more balanced to get the opinion of the Spaniards / French people This view is certainly biased, or at least, one sided
