| Before there was Osama bin Laden, there was Kara Mustafa. In 1683 the grand vizier of the Ottoman Empire launched a a holy war against Europe. His goal was the destruction of Vienna and the expansion of the global caliphate of Islam. In the same year, a young man was thrown out of France for treason against Louis XIV. In his fight to avenge his family's honor, Eugene of Savoy found himself in the battle that became the Vatican's last crusade. Based on the true stories of Eugene of Savoy, the Ottoman Grand Vizier Kara Mustafa and the battle to save Vienna, Jihad weaves an intricate tale of glory and honor, duty and holy war that carries eerie echoes for the world today. |
