if you (correctly and validly imo) use columbus as a stand in for european imperialism in the americas, then you have to also use ISIS s a stand in for 1000 years of islamic imperialism

then you can only conclude that they are actually the same

in other words european imperialism and colonization is just a different side of the coin from islamic imperialism and colonization

Juan Garrido
Juan Garrido (c. 1480-c. 1550[1]) was a black African-Spanish conquistador. African by birth, he went to Portugal as a young man.[2]In converting to Christianity, he chose the Spanish name, Juan Garrido ("Handsome John").[1][3]

He joined a Spanish expedition and arrived in Santo Domingo (Hispaniola) about 1502. He participated in the invasion of present-day Puerto Rico and Cuba in 1508. By 1519 he had joined Cortes' forces and invaded present-day Mexico, participating in the siege of Tenochtitlan. He married and settled in Mexico City. He continued to serve with Spanish forces for more than 30 years, including expeditions to western Mexico and to the Pacific.[4] He is credited with the first cultivation of wheat in the New World.[5]

The comparisons in this article of ISIS and C.C. is dumb. However what the author failed to mention a comparison that of a "Mythical" story around these two. One having a myth he was an explorer who had a thrill of adventure and met some interesting people on his quest. The other is a unstoppable force of evil muslims who grow faster than bebe's kids that popped up all around the world making threats and attacks in their indestructible Toyotas with a mysterious leader too cheap to get air condition for the mosque wearing a 10,000 rolex watch demanding destruction. The media covers every move by ISIS with exclusives. C.C. had note takers.

Columbus was apart of the Spanish Empire who were vicious murderers and savages who gets a day on the calendar as a holiday. ISIS will never get that.

The fact that he globalized the americas compared to what Isis is done. All of us wouldn't be here just natives in huts right now
So you think society would stagnate without committing genocide and stealing land? You sound like our foreign policy.

To the question posed though, i think columbus was a horrible person. But driven by an even more horrible collection of nations which gave him his only real shot at becoming an icon in his warped maniacal reality. Not much has changed.

And i dont really try to judge isis :heh:

It makes more sense to me (perhaps not to some of you) to look at their creation, funding and the tolerance displayed towards their actions by supposed superpowers. Who are you gonna blame, the rogue infantry obeying orders or wealthy monolithic structure which promotes its creation and calls the shots?

Is Columbus worse that Isis? It's a odd question, If you go by track record(assuming we're speaking about ISIS in recent times only, and not attaching the history of Islamic extremist to them) than Columbus probably wins. However, Columbus was committing atrocities in an environment were he had no constraints placed on him. There was nothing preventing him from acting out his desires too their fullest potential. In the case of ISIS, there are constraints being put on them, which prevent them from reaching the state of power that Columbus had in the new world. In other words, ISIS can't just freely terrorize the West without some cost to themselves. So comparing their actions to Columbus seems like comparing apples to oranges imo.

And all these years, I've been blinded by the white man's history.
Us kids making construction paper cut outs of the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria. Literally. We made these Spanish ships like "Hey, these boats were used to help discover new lands."
However, Christopher Columbus was Italian and was a hired captain because he knew how to navigate the seas. Do we blame the Spanish? The Spanish ran the show and were about expanding their territory.
