From what i've read on islamic history, they tend to exclude anything in the last 200 years and especially in the last 50. The issue of jihad is a touchy subject but after recent events i can't believe people are still burying their heads in the sand. I'll be very interested on follow up articles on how these courses go, there content, and topics.
