This orthodox christian does indeed make a well studied investigation of Islam history.
What he misses is that the idea of Islam being a political agenda was not original.
Islam is just a copy of an other very successful religion that was created for a political agenda, that we call Christianity.

I thought Islam existed before Christianity. Maybe Christianity is the copycat of Islam...
Islam took parts from Judaism and Christianity. Muhammad was born in the sixth century CE.
Muhammad was born about 532 ce Paul actually created the Christian religion in Rome in the first century ce he is the man that made Jesus a god Jesus' brother James was the head of the Christian church in Jerusalem and he thought Jesus's was the messiah but never considered him a god to Jews the messiah was a man who would come and free the Jewish people from Roman occupation and the corrupted temple cult but they never considered Jesus to be to be a god the book the zealot is very informative about first century life and what was going on politically at the time.
I thought Islam existed before Christianity.
I'm sorry to disappoint but Islam came 700 years or so later
1400 years ago...
Oh, but Mohammed existed before Jesus...
What are you talking about??
Muhammed: born 570, Mecca, Arabia [now in Saudi Arabia]—died June 8, 632, Medina.

"Islam's self-identity is that it is the authentic and ideal expression of monotheism. Muslims are raised with the view that Islam is God 3.0, Christianity is God 2.0, Judaism is God 1.0, and Hinduism is God 0.0."
