Ever thought of that? The Islamic States of America. What would have been the contribution of ISA to the world? New drugs, cars, planes, space travel? May be the iphone? What would the wait be to become a citizen? What would the illegal aliens look like? Which states would be shiite and which sunni? Would the number of lashes for the same crime be uniform across the country?

I mean, the amount of things that would have had to be different in history for this to happen are so massive that any prediction is basically nothing but a guess based on what you want to have had happened. Who knows what the world would look like. North America might be a cesspool of sexism and violence, or perhaps a wonderland of peaceful prosperity. The amount of things that would need to change for this possibility to exist are so massive that you could pretty much come to any conclusion and most likely have a solid way to argue in favor of it.

Also, did you just imply that America was discovered on the 4th of July? Because that is not how it happened.

What destroyed the intellectual societies of the ME and North Africa? Islam.

Islam has destroyed great civilizations and with the new age mass immigration will destroy other ones it comes in contact with.

Muhammad himself prophesied that like a serpent Islam will one day die where it started in Mecca.

The Messenger of Allah (Mohammed) observed: "Verily Islam started as something strange and it would again revert (to its old position) of being strange just as it started, and it would recede between the two mosques just as the serpent crawls back into its hole." [Sahih Muslim, Book 001, Number 0270.]

One thing wouldn't be different: we'd have a President and a political party who wouldn't be able to condemn Islamic terrorism.

I don't think the First Amendment would be around.

We probably wouldn't have fought the British either, lol

If muslims had discovered America, my family would have shown up anyway and kicked their a--es - just like we did the indians, the French and the British.

NO, the entire world would be speaking German, Italian and Japanese. Keep in mind that Muslims sided with Hitler.

Sieg Heil Komani!
Sieg Heil Komani!

Actually, there wouldn't have been a Hitler because the Axis would have won WWI
