What would happen if a non-Muslim nation destroyed Mecca and/or Medina during a war unintentionally or even intentionally for some reason like create unrest in enemies colonies, destroy enemy morale or simply for religious reason? How would Islam develop after? How would react the Muslims around the world? Would they take revenge? Against whom if they would? Against all the West or only to the country guilty? How would the Ottoman Empire react? Would the Muslims be less or not after?
The POD should be post 1815 and preferably pre World War 2 , I don´t want to be offensive against any religion and person with this thread.
