Ya, Mexicans don't comprise a religion. I havn't heard the Turks make such a grand statement as taking over Spain, let alone the world. As such, your contrast is a poor one. It would be more appropriate to compare Islam to Christianity. That would of course change the nature of your post, because as a universalist religion it also wants everyone's souls.
That too would be a poor comparison as the adherents of Christianity are more of a heterogenous nature. There is no ancestral geographical turf to take back since, far more than Islam and Judaism, Christians originate from all over the world.



Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. -- Song 8:6
