00:02:32.780You know, we all grab a drink, we get cozy, we get comfy, and we watch a documentary.
00:02:41.760Sometimes a documentary is about Iran, sometimes it's about something else.
00:02:46.740last night it was like this weird conspiracy theory about like mithraism and we could only

00:05:15.600there you go. So, okay. All right. So tonight I have another, um, interview with Raymond Ibrahim.
00:05:27.840Um, I got a lot of positive feedback, um, from everyone about the, um, trigonometry interview
00:05:35.200that he did. And many of you wanted to, um, see more of him and hear more of him. So, uh, I found
00:05:43.800another documentary, or sorry, I shouldn't call it documentary, more like, you know, just like a
00:05:48.420podcast conversation talk. This one is from, let me just check here. So this one is from May 11.
00:05:56.200So it's from earlier on in the year. And the description says historian and author Raymond
00:06:03.080Ibrahim joins the Winston Marshall show for a powerful eye opening conversation on the hidden
00:06:10.600history of Islam's conquest of the Christian world, and why so few dare to speak about it
00:06:18.800today. Raymond traces the rapid Islamic expansion following Muhammad's death, showing how within
00:06:26.660just one century, Muslim armies had violently overrun three quarters of the original Christian
00:06:34.200world from Syria and Egypt to Spain and deep into Europe. He dismantles the myth of the
00:06:42.420Andalusian tolerance, reveals the brutal realities behind the so-called Islamic Golden Age. That's
00:06:49.420what I'm waiting for. I want to hear about the Islamic Golden Age because as I explained in my
00:06:53.980earlier videos and also the video that I posted yesterday, there's no such thing as the Islamic
00:06:58.840Golden Age. It's basically the Iranian Golden Age because all the scholars were pretty much Iranian
00:07:04.980and they were Zoroastrian. And he also explains how the Islamic conquests shattered the Mediterranean
00:07:11.860world, plunging Europe into the Dark Ages. So that's actually something new that I personally
00:07:19.320learned yesterday. So up until I saw Raymond Raymond's discussion about this, and I don't
00:07:28.560know, maybe it was Robert Spencer who mentioned something briefly, or maybe it was Dr. Bill
00:07:32.100Morton, I don't know. But it was literally only a few days ago, that I actually connected
00:07:39.220the dark ages to jihad, right? Because we always we learn about the dark ages, we learn about,
00:07:49.040you know, the medieval dark ages, but we never really talk about what caused it. And so I found
00:07:58.000that very interesting. So I'm very interested in learning more about this because it does make
00:08:04.440sense. Okay. I have a few more comments here on what people are drinking tonight. Okay. So
00:08:09.680Amir's on the coffee train. Ooh, 190 ever clear whiskey. Oh yeah. You sip that. Okay. But
00:08:17.440So Grandview, so the whiskey that you're drinking, so this is where I'm going to judge you based on your answer. Are you sipping that whiskey on ice, like on the rocks, or are you sipping it neat? And based on your answer, I will judge you. So let me know. No pressure.
00:08:37.220never heard of bubbly we don't have it in the uk bush bush light i don't know what bush light is
00:08:45.140i've never heard of that so um okay um okay so so divorced divorce lawyer oh wow that's a that's
00:08:58.720a mouthful. Divorced Lawyer asks, how could Islam grab Iran completely, but not India? That's
00:09:07.240because Iran was, you know, right there at the border. And the Persian Empire had been weakened
00:09:16.500by a 30 year war with the Byzantine Empire. And because they were so weakened, that's how Islam
00:09:24.080and the Arab Muslim invaders were able to go in. And yeah, so that's, I'm sure, I'm sure Raymond's
00:09:34.900going to talk about this, but the, the short answer in a nutshell is that, yeah, it was because
00:09:41.180the Persian empire was severely weakened by the, by the, by the Byzantines. But if you look at the
00:09:47.120history of Jihad map, it all didn't happen overnight. It still took like a couple of
00:09:52.200decades but uh yeah yeah that's how that's how it happened um okay okay so pepsi what else do we got
00:10:01.100here um oh you like drinking ad hoc we love it here in lebanon i tried ad hoc one time i don't
00:10:10.400know the taste was too strong for me um because it's got like that licorice-y aftertaste to it
00:10:17.360I'm not a fan of licorice. So beer, tap water. Oh, Boosh is American beer. Okay. All right. I think I caught up. Oh, cardamom tea. There you go. Cardamom tea. All right. I like that too. All right. Okay, guys. So let's get started here. I hope, you know, I've given you all a little bit of time to get settled in, grab your drinks. Let's go. And yeah, this is this is basically sort of a learning learning thing for me.
00:10:47.220So, you know, for those of you who haven't joined my evening live streams before the purpose of my evening evening live streams is basically to just I mean, these are things that I would be watching on my own anyway.
00:10:59.640And then I just figured might as well do a live stream while I'm watching them so other people can join me.
00:11:05.640And, you know, of course, if there's interest, I'll continue.
00:11:08.880I've been doing this for a couple of months now because there is a lot of interest from people.
00:11:12.780So, yeah, there you go. This is just sort of a chill watch party.
00:11:16.560and um there you go learning experience all right let's get started i'm actually really excited for
00:11:22.640this is the missed attack after is the missed attack how we might find social cohesion today
00:11:29.460in europe we got to go back to the beginning to muhammad now here's the first interesting thing
00:11:35.300that few people understand from 632 the year muhammad died one century later 732 muslims are
00:11:40.980now in the middle of europe fighting and abducting people and destroying churches they found what
00:11:48.020they want to claim is this great time of tolerance and beauty but they're acting like isis on steroids
00:11:52.900they symbolically were trying to denigrate christianity but we don't talk about that
00:11:58.740in one century from mama's death they conquered three quarters of the original christian world
00:12:04.340permanently this is what's building up towards the first crusade so then let's
00:12:09.940go to the crusades you heard the word crusade it's such a diabolical evil thing evil venture
00:12:16.340now what they don't tell you okay is one that's how effective they've been they've gotten that
00:12:21.860narrative to become dominant maybe we just stick with 2025 and what's happening we've had some
00:12:26.180reports from congo nigeria i think every week i have to read about dozens of christians being
00:12:31.380killed and of course the media they they tell you no no this is a this is about climate change
00:30:52.280Really, the first writings and the hadith are maybe around 750.
00:30:56.700And this is why there's a school of thought that says Muhammad never existed,
00:30:59.400and it was all fabricated later to give a hegeographical foundational story to the umayyad
00:31:04.900empire um but at any rate so you have now the muslim uh the muslim power is consolidated on
00:31:12.460darba bakar and then later the other caliph omar um who are companions and friends of muhammad
00:31:17.880and now the jihad is waged in earnest now here's the first interesting thing that few people
00:31:23.320understand in 632 you know if i talk to someone your average person and i talk about the middle
00:31:28.860east or north africa and they know it's muslim they don't know how it got muslim they think it's
00:31:33.820always been muslim in the dawn of islam during this time that i'm discussing 632. yeah can i
00:31:39.900just point out like it's so weird because it's like everyone knows that jesus was born um in
00:31:47.040bethlehem which is in israel israel is in the middle east um but yet at the same time everyone
00:31:55.200just assumes that the middle east has been muslim forever even though it's literally not the case
00:32:01.760so yeah there is like this cognitive dissonance when it comes to um people's knowledge about
00:32:09.440history when it comes to the middle east so i just want to point that out and so forth
00:32:15.280the eastern world nor egypt greater syria as it was called which encompassed modern day israel
00:32:21.120jordan lebanon it was a big chunk um anatolia or turkey what we call turkey and like i said egypt
00:32:27.700all the way down to morocco mauritania and you know and augustine's hippo was there in tunisia
00:32:33.340all that was actually more christian than europe so if you talked about christianity at the dawn
00:32:38.960of islam you were talking about egypt you were talking about syria you're talking about asia
00:32:43.500minor greece of course and europe but europe was actually less christian and of course anything
00:32:49.760northwest of the danube brian was still not even germany you know the scandinavian lands hadn't
00:32:54.500even reached christianity at that point um and this is why the roman emperor constantine
00:32:59.780moved the capital of rome new rome constant constantinople to the east because that's where
00:33:06.780everything was that's where the learning was that's where the sophisticated culture was
00:33:10.880the wealth all right uh and again when people we have records of people traveling through egypt
00:33:17.880and they say all we heard from the top of the nile to the bottom is just hymns and church bells etc
00:33:23.160this is before islam same thing with syria okay so people miss this context this is what the
00:33:29.240middle east was if you wanted to talk about christianity there were five major centers okay
00:33:33.560they call them seas one was rome and the other four in the middle east okay one was alexandria
00:33:39.640one was uh antioch one was jerusalem and then later constantinople all east and all conquered
00:33:45.320by islam okay which we'll get into so anyway we have the first major attack um and we have the
00:33:51.080battle of yarmouk in 636 and the the muslims prevail where is yarmouk yeah yarmouk is a river
00:33:58.200in syria um or it was in greater syria at the time so i don't know if it's in part of jordan
00:34:03.400now but i'm pretty sure it's in syria still um and that's where the two major armies the eastern
00:34:08.040roman empire which they call byzantium i sort of don't like that word because it sort of
00:34:12.440creates a discontinuity between the roman empire that's they saw themselves as romans even the
00:34:17.880arab accounts call them romans you know so this word byzantine i just anyway but it's short it's
00:34:22.840easy it's succinct so i'll use i do i interchange them but the eastern roman empire basically and
00:34:28.200the arabs the muslims fought there and it was a major epic confrontations and the christians lost
00:34:35.000and for various reasons among it you know there was a desk a desert storm which they
00:34:39.560weren't used to fighting in whereas the arabs were and it takes on a great you know it's very
00:34:44.940hagiographical tradition amongst arabs it's this is you know where it all begins and this is where
00:34:49.800our allah proved he was for us because we beat the infidels etc etc and you know i won't get into it
00:34:57.680but anyone who's interested really should read about the battle because a lot of what you know
00:35:01.280isis the islamic state the stuff they would say which sort of sounds cryptic and people didn't
00:35:05.640understand it. They would say things like, we've tasted American blood and none is sweeter. And
00:35:10.860people just thought they're being gross. Actually, they were quoting characters from the Battle of
00:35:15.640Yarmouk, Muslim heroes, specifically Khalid bin Al-Walid, known as the Sword of Allah,
00:35:20.620who said to the Romans, we've tasted... I just want to say we have a new member. So

00:37:37.620long form content on on youtube so you'll see um a lot more info here oh bama bama squirrel you are
00:37:45.300from tick tock as well okay wow there's a lot of tick tockers here guys there you go the tick tockers
00:37:53.540are the ogs so all right okay let's continue here woman blood and none is sweeter all right so when
00:38:00.340a lot of the things they would say is actually from that battle and other battles as well but
00:38:04.820that's how you know these these battles and major confrontations with the christian world where they
00:38:10.020prevailed so oh sorry i was just gonna say so for um for for those who don't have tick tock
00:38:16.180you're not missing out everything i post on tick tock i pretty much post on youtube in fact i
00:38:20.740actually post more content on youtube so if you're only following me on youtube you're good although
00:38:28.100i would i would probably recommend if you have x follow me on x as well because i do a lot of like
00:38:33.700text posts on x and you know things that i don't don't put on youtube will figure very prominently
00:38:39.780in their historical consciousness whereas the most westerners they have no clue right yeah um so at
00:38:45.180any rate the battle happens the west uh the the christians lose and now begins the great takeover
00:38:51.460of these of the middle east all right egypt which was a major center for the roman empire gets
00:38:56.860conquered four years later uh right or five years around 640 641 and you know the they continue
00:39:03.640marching all the way west until they get to morocco around 690 they take over carthage you
00:39:08.380know we're um and augustine and hippos all these major centers and in syria as well come completely
00:39:14.400conquered jerusalem is conquered one year after yarmouk all right it's like a complete dominant
00:39:19.460oh okay so uh i just want to pause because we have a super chat um in youtube so dormant says
00:39:26.280Good evening, Goldie. I've heard a lot about this thing in Islam called, well, it's taqiyah or, you know, taqiyah as we pronounce it in Persian, in Farsi. So taqiyah is basically just lying.
00:39:38.760Um, Raymond, so Raymond Ibrahim actually spoke about Takiyah in the podcast that, um, we watched earlier today. He might speak about it in this podcast, but if he doesn't, then, um, I will make a separate video about it.
00:40:00.200Takiyah is basically the Islamic doctrine that you are allowed to lie about anything,
00:40:08.400pretend, you know, anything. You're even allowed to lie and say something like you're not Muslim
00:40:14.840if it is for the purposes of advancing like jihad and Islam. So yeah, that's basically what
00:40:22.560Takiyah is. I have made a short video on the persecution of like one of my Iranian here
00:40:31.720videos actually does talk about the Yazidi genocide. But I will make a note here. And I
00:40:39.680will definitely make like a short video about the Yazidi genocide more than happy to do that. I
00:40:46.440I don't think it is talked about enough and not a lot of people know about the Yezidi genocide.
00:40:52.940And something that that was actually really, really horrifying for me is that during, you know, the whole Hamas-Israel conflict where, you know, Hamas terrorists were and also Palestinian, you know, civilians were attacking Israel.
00:41:10.940during that whole conflict the idf actually found and like a a young yezidi girl in gaza
00:41:20.880who had been taken there by a palestinian and i find that absolutely wild that um they're actually
00:41:27.720like a society exists that is so savage and so barbaric that when like an old man randomly shows
00:41:38.220up with an 11 year old girl and says, this is my wife, no one questions him. Right. Like, I mean,
00:41:46.340like if, if, if let's say my next door neighbor was gone for a few years and then all of a sudden
00:41:53.300just showed up and he had like, you know, an 11 year old girl with him and he's like, this is my
00:41:58.220wife. I would like, I would call the cops right away. And yet no one, no one in Gaza upon seeing
00:42:05.940this old man show up with an 11 year old girl. No one thought that maybe this is strange. Maybe
00:42:13.500something's not right. Yeah. So people don't talk about this. People don't talk about this. They
00:42:18.260just say, oh, the Palestinians are oppressed. No, they're a bunch of like savage jihadis. And
00:42:22.420there's a reason that no Middle Eastern country in the world wants them. But I will definitely
00:42:27.100make a video on the Yazidi genocide for sure. Absolutely. I don't think it gets enough attention
00:42:32.460and my heart goes out to um all the yezidi people thank you for the support okay let's uh let's
00:42:42.080continue no effect and there's theories of why this is one of them is the is that the byzantine
00:42:48.200empire was very weakened at the time but also the muslims enter and conquer persia the sassanian
00:42:54.900empire at the time okay and now it's in now iran's been conquered and they continue eastward
00:43:00.240But just for brevity's sake, I'll continue focusing on the Western Christian world.
00:43:06.160And so now, from 632, the year Muhammad died, one century later, 732, Muslims are now in
00:43:13.100the middle of Europe fighting and abducting people and destroying churches.
00:43:28.940okay now they you know after they they took over morocco now they sailed into spain and that was
00:43:34.320completely conquered and devastated and now they're in the middle of france okay attacking and and this
00:43:40.380is the battle of tours so in one year in one century from mama's death and historians have
00:43:46.460actually quantified it but it's basically they conquered three quarters of the original christian
00:43:50.720world permanently in spain not permanently but for oh wow so okay like some some person comes in
00:43:59.520some person comes in and they're like is this a pro-israel channel i thought it was persian
00:44:06.760um so from the spelling of your name obviously you're not iranian so um anyone who knows
00:44:15.520anything about the history of Iran and Israel knows that, um, all Iranians are pretty much
00:44:23.000pro-Israel. Um, the only Iranians who are not pro-Israel are, uh, the traitors who support
00:44:31.840the terrorist Islamic Republic. So yeah, this is 100%, um, an Iranian channel. And that's why
00:44:39.740this is also a pro-Israel channel because the history of Iranian people and Israeli people and
00:44:47.380Jews goes back thousands of years, well before Islam was invented. And a bunch of jihadi
00:44:54.960terrorists cannot erase the allyship and friendship that Iranians and Jews have had for thousands of
00:45:04.280years so yeah this is this is definitely a persian channel that's why we are pro israel and pro jew
00:45:11.740and happy hanukkah to um all the jewish people who are watching for like eight centuries they
00:45:19.240were there and of course in france they still continued depredations and the mediterranean
00:45:24.300islands were all conquered around the eighth century you know sicily and malta and all of
00:45:30.740them cyprus and and roads for centuries um and again it's to me i'm just baffled at how people
00:45:38.560don't understand these were not just christian countries these were the main christian countries
00:45:43.740and they just got conquered and islamized and nobody knows this if you talk about those countries
00:45:48.540now like egypt or syria most people just have this vague notion they were always muslim and you know
00:45:53.820muslim just spread islam spread there no and again if you look at the sources both the arabic and
00:45:59.960islamic and the european chronicles they make it unequivocally clear this was violent bloodshed
00:46:05.720conquest and it's even worse in the arabic recordings because they boast about it the more
00:46:11.440violent it is and the more you know the atrocities committed against the christian infidels and the
00:46:16.360more churches destroyed this is more a reflection of how pious the muslim conquerors were so it's
00:46:22.280actually worse in the arab i always find this amazing that it's more graphic sometimes than
00:46:27.080European ones, which are a little more objective. They say, yes, we were attacked and thousands
00:46:31.660were butchered and enslaved and churches, but the Muslim ones revel in it. Okay. And so now
00:46:38.580let's just stop for a moment. None of this is being taught in any school at all. Can I just
00:46:42.460ask, do you have a sense of the death toll in that first century? No, I mean, these, unfortunately,
00:46:47.100seventh century is what we're talking about. We're lucky to have just the records that we have, but
00:46:50.720and I know I put it in sword and scimitar where I talk about various regions that get conquered and
00:46:55.480then some chronicle mentions a number okay but it's it's very hard it's very sketchy that time
00:47:01.680i mean this is this is we're now nearing to what traditionally was called the dark ages because we
00:47:06.060have which by the way and we can get into is a product of islam okay and many people don't know
00:47:12.420this um and since i'm at it okay we're almost there so basically after what happened and the
00:47:17.260discount so the mediterranean used to be known as kind of the roman lake and everyone egypt and
00:47:23.180syria and all north africa and europe were all connected it was part of one empire after islam
00:47:29.020took everything basically south of that north africa in the middle east it come and i already
00:47:33.320told you that was the richer more profound the more sophisticated region little europe the the
00:47:38.300rest of the christian was cut off completely papyrus ended it used to come from egypt that
00:47:43.120was that supply was eliminated all of that is historically this is was the beginning of what
00:47:47.840historians would call the dark ages okay and you don't know i mean and one historian uh
00:47:53.480um so i actually just saw someone in the comments um who's apparently triggered that we're talking
00:48:01.360about the history of jihad and then this person is like let me remind you of the crusades he can't
00:48:06.980even spell he can't even spell remind um properly first of all but anyway so um i also wanted to
00:48:13.140say this, this is not only a pro-Iran, pro-Israel channel. This is also a pro-Crusade channel. So
00:48:22.700if you haven't seen my video about the Crusades, go watch that. So yeah, you can remind me about
00:48:28.880the Crusades all you want. I think the Crusades were justified. And yeah, this is definitely a
00:48:36.140pro-Crusade channel as well. Yeah, 100%. People need to go and learn the history.
00:48:43.140Oh, we have a new member. Okay. Wyatt. Wyatt, thank you for becoming a member and for joining
00:48:51.320the channel. I hope you enjoy. Welcome. Henry Perrin. He was, I think, a Belgian historian
00:48:57.500in the 19th century, an orientalist, as they called them. He actually had an entire thesis
00:49:01.700about this. And basically his line is, without Muhammad, there'd be no Charlemagne. The rise
00:49:07.500of Charlemagne and the Frankish state was basically a response to the nonstop Islamic
00:49:11.860aggression and the separate and the discontinuity of uh the mediterranean this is why now europe had
00:49:18.240to develop on its own and start a new and it was you know it was the young kid on the block
00:49:23.400the barbarians who had you know conquered and assimilated into christendom in the fifth century
00:49:28.600and whatnot um they didn't they no longer had the assistance of the east as they did before
00:49:33.760okay and so now they became the small final bastion of christendom and they continued being
00:49:39.740attacked by muslims uh so you know to finish this idea of the dark ages so that's yeah so people
00:49:44.400will tell you the dark age is historic and they don't even want to use that term anymore for
00:49:47.800various reasons but they would say it was the 8th century and the 9th century and it was they would
00:49:53.260tell you because of viking attacks and you know attacks from nomadic tribes in the east but the
00:49:57.740real attack was the islam okay that was the main one from the south and uh the vikings people don't
00:50:03.500even understand that a lot of the Viking raids, especially for slaves, white slaves, was to feed
00:50:10.520the Arab slave emporium because there was such a demand for white slaves.
00:50:15.580So they were selling, Vikings were selling slaves.
00:50:16.900Yeah, they would go to Ireland and England and France and wherever and Concord. And all those
00:50:21.320slaves, most of them would be sold down through the rivers of Russia to the caliphates, the
00:50:27.880Abbasids, for example, the Abbasid caliphate. That used to be a well-known thing. And we know
00:50:33.340this as well because a lot of the treasure troves of viking coins that are found in scandinavia are
00:50:38.840arab coins you know so what commodity do vikings have to give slaves and we also have records for
00:50:45.320it so you know the whole point is uh islam has had a profound impact on the shaping of europe
00:50:50.820and there's historians i quote one in one of my books um uh something cardini where he basically
00:50:56.720says islam was a midwife to europe it created europe and the reason europe became martial and
00:51:03.140you had the night culture and everything and a very staunch christian kind of defensive posture
00:51:09.360it was because of islam it was surrounding it and it was and they knew what happened they understood
00:51:13.660that three quarters of christendom was destroyed and conquered and islamized um you know so it's
00:51:19.980this is we haven't even reached the crusades okay and look what had look what islam had done
00:51:25.120and i'm here to tell you and i've because i've looked at this and parents write to me about
00:51:28.820school books textbooks and social science books what i just described you doesn't even get any
00:51:34.340mention you just get one sentence about how islam spread through trade in the middle east and they
00:51:40.160won't tell you the middle east was so christian before that they always like to act um seeing a
00:51:45.260couple of comments here so i just want to share them so uh duane says people will damn the truth
00:51:52.780and die for a lie 100 percent and you know raymond actually he's literally just talking about that
00:51:58.780right now where he's saying um you don't hear about any of this in the textbooks all you hear
00:52:05.500is that islam spread through trade um or you know through peace which makes no sense so um yeah islam
00:52:16.300didn't spread through trade. It spread through jihad. It spread through rape, murder, you know,
00:52:24.280cutting people's heads off and forcing people to convert. So there you go. TFDX. Something crazy
00:52:33.140is happening in Iran. What are your thoughts on the mass conversions to Christianity under the
00:52:37.520regime? So Christianity is the fastest growing religion in occupied Iran. Zoroastrianism is a
00:52:46.060second fastest growing. We don't know the numbers because the crime for apostasy, you know, under
00:52:53.620Islam and Sharia law is death. And so the Islamic Republic, you know, claims that like 99% of Iran
00:53:02.640is Muslim, because literally everyone is forced to put their religion on their passport. And so
00:53:09.38099% of people have to put Muslim. And so even though the vast majority are not, they're basically
00:53:16.000pretend muslims um so we don't actually know the number of people who have converted to christianity
00:53:25.040i would say given the current um appetite in iran and iranians like they're just sick like
00:53:34.400we are just sick of religion um we're sick and tired of of anything to do with it and everyone
00:53:40.480you know just wants something really private right like no one wants to talk about religion
00:53:44.880in public. So there are a lot of Iranians who are just agnostic or atheist because they're just
00:53:53.600sick and tired of dealing with Islam. But the reason that Christianity is one of the fastest
00:53:59.600growing religions in occupied Iran is because Christianity just has a completely different
00:54:06.660message from Islam, right? So Islam is all about like death and martyrdom. And, you know, if you
00:54:12.460don't do this, you're going to die. You know, it's about killing, you know, infidels, you know,
00:54:16.840all that, all that jihadi nonsense. Whereas Christianity is more about, you know, Jesus
00:54:23.760dying for your sins and, you know, love and, you know, all that kind of stuff. I'm not Christian,
00:54:29.780so I'm not going to like comment on it too much. But that's why Christianity resonates a lot more
00:54:35.960with Iranians. But I would say the vast majority of Iranians are atheist or agnostic.
00:54:42.460And less than 20% of Iranians today are actually practicing Muslim. And there's a lot of Iranians in the chat, they can give you some input and insight on that as well. But yeah, I mean, we don't we don't know the figures when it comes to Christianity, because again, the crime for apostasy is death.
00:55:04.300Um, and just recently in the news, there was, um, like there was news about, um, some Christians,
00:55:12.200uh, who had recently converted from Islam to Christianity, um, in occupied Iran. And they
00:55:18.740have actually been jailed because again, um, leaving Islam is a crime. People are asking me
00:55:24.700if I'm Muslim. No, I'm not Muslim. Stop asking me that. I'm not Muslim. Um, there you go. So
00:55:31.920tfdx i hope that answers your question um i mean again less than 20 percent of iranians are muslims
00:55:43.320so i mean if you ask an iranian if they're a muslim like 80 percent of the time they're going
00:55:48.360to say no so there you go like europe was christian christian and everything else wasn't no
00:55:53.680europe was the the the leftover portion of christendom that never got conquered
00:55:58.140portions of it did, Spain and the Balkans later under the Ottomans. And we'll get into that.
00:56:04.780But yeah, so this is, I'll stop. So why do you think that they were so successful in so quickly
00:56:10.200conquering so much? Yeah, there's a lot of theories about that. The one which I touched on
00:56:16.380is, you know, the Roman Empire and the Persians were at war right before the Islamic conquest,
00:56:22.660literally like a decade or two. They were constantly bleeding each other. So one theory
00:56:27.700is that they were both so exhausted that when this new power rose up in arabia they were able
00:56:32.700to just conquer them piecemeal um so that's one the muslim theory is god's on our side and this
00:56:38.100is proof and this is why we won the ancient christian the contemporary christian theory
00:56:42.760they always this is how people always thought they thought we were sinners and so you know god
00:56:47.400had raised amalak against us or or whatever the old testament analogy is he's raised some kind of
00:56:53.480pagan people to attack the the believers the hebrews and punish them and chastise them for
00:56:58.820their evil ways so that comes out regularly uh amongst the christian do you think that there's
00:57:03.820anything in the culture of christianity that yeah well that's the edward gibbon argument okay which
00:57:08.620is basically that um you know because of christianity it's sort of emasculated the
00:57:13.540martial ethos of the roman empire and it made wait i see in the comments presidential address
00:57:19.540to the nation. Trump is speaking. Is he speaking about something relevant? I know that he made
00:57:26.700a statement yesterday. He's speaking about the war on Venezuela. Do you guys want me to switch
00:57:38.380to that? Do you want me to switch to the Venezuela war? All right. You know what? No, you don't
00:57:57.040want me to switch? All right. Okay. All right. I won't do it then. The chat has spoken. We
00:58:05.760will not switch to President Trump doing a live. Although, you know what, though? What's interesting
00:58:12.520is that I do want to say this. So what's happening in Venezuela does actually have an impact on the
00:58:21.260Middle East because the current Venezuelan regime is very, very closely tied to the terrorist
00:58:30.140islamic republic occupying iran so there are like terrorist links there um i might do a video about
00:58:39.660that another day um once we get more more information but um yeah uh keep an eye out on
00:58:47.520venezuela because there are a lot of islamic terrorists there as well okay we will continue
00:58:54.020but thank you thank you for letting me know that trump's being a presidential address i will watch
00:58:57.780highlights later them sitting ducks you know for the arabs i i it's not going to be world war three
00:59:04.900guys like that i don't even like it's not i don't even think it's going to be like an actual war
00:59:08.820like venezuela is going to have no way to be able to counter the united states anyone who um anyone
00:59:15.700who says like it's going to be world war three no it's it's not true that's also a um i don't
00:59:23.220don't know how accurate that is because uh you still find very martial christians during this
00:59:28.360time you know like uh so okay so charlemagne is now the year 800 we have the rise of charlemagne
00:59:35.600before we get to charlemagne though so uh they the the muslim armies are they don't conquer tours
00:59:42.900and they're fought back right and i think all the way back to spain if you correct me if i get any
01:09:50.760Okay. And that's what he, and the thing is, it's not just him. This is the official line amongst historians and academics. And he, I mentioned him because he was at, he was especially back in the day when I was going there, military analysts and politicians would consult him about questions about Islam.
01:10:08.680and it's the same thing with uh people like karen armstrong you know she's a best-selling
01:10:12.560author about religions you read what she says again she'll tell all she'll start off with the
01:10:17.380crusades and just how evil it was and act like everything before it was nothing but muslims
01:10:22.480being good to christians okay so one so these are what we would call you know omission um you know
01:10:28.440um so so but at that point though do we need to go back to charlemagne to tie the bow on charlemagne
01:10:36.180no no not really i mean you know he he's great for his own things charles the great i'll give
01:10:41.540you one quick anecdote again because it shows you the games they play so uh what it's known that he
01:10:47.200and harun al-rasheed the caliph the abbasid caliph had good relations okay and people use
01:10:53.540this often as oh see and where was that caliph based uh baghdad okay yeah um the abbasid caliphate
01:10:59.820and we're talking now you know the year 800 or a little after and people will always show you yes
01:11:05.940see, it's, you know, Islam and Christians got along. You've got two emperors or a caliph and
01:11:10.620an emperor, and they were friends, et cetera, et cetera. And they gave gifts to one, each other.
01:11:14.340But when you dig in and you read the Chronicles, and I quoted, I'm pretty sure in Sword and
01:11:18.420Cemetery, I discuss the chronicler of Charlemagne. He makes it perfectly clear that the reason
01:11:24.360Charlemagne was being nice and reaching out to Hiron al-Rashid was almost like he was bribing
01:11:31.360him to be good to the christians under his authority in egypt in iraq in in the islamic
01:11:36.920world because there were so many christians so he says that the chronicler he says the reason he
01:11:41.640sought out friendships was so he can make the plight of christians living in those regions
01:11:45.960less and he can help them okay so you see how again that is omitted but we're told about oh
01:11:51.840look they got along because muslims and christians always get along yeah that's i can leave it at
01:11:57.620with charlemagne so uh then let's go to the crusades yeah this is quite a whistleblow tour
01:12:05.940so it's 1095. so 1095 but we have to start a little earlier to give context so you know
01:12:11.780everything i discussed was during the arab the rise of the arab empire and it went through
01:12:15.940iterations you had the umayyads and then you had the abbasids which i just mentioned um and then
01:12:20.740sometime after that you know the the the abbasids start importing turkic slaves and islamizing them
01:12:27.460slave soldiers okay like the janissaries and the mamluks um and you know long story short before
01:12:33.660long you know the turks become very muslim and they become sunni muslims um which is important
01:12:38.860because we're going to talk a little bit about shias and um eventually they take over and they
01:12:43.900still keep the caliphate the abbasid but he's more of a puppet figure and the real power is the seljuk
01:12:48.760sultan all right now during this time especially from like 1050 to 1090 okay right before the first
01:12:55.660Crusade, these Seljuks are running amok. Okay, so the persecution and the destruction of Christians
01:13:01.100that I mentioned earlier under the Arabs, times 10. I mean, now it's just, it's horrific, okay?
01:13:07.900They start in Armenia, Greater Armenia, which is, you know, what we would say Eastern Anatolia.
01:13:14.380And according to the records, you know, I'm thinking of Matthew of Edessa, who was a
01:13:17.440contemporary, they were just killing tens of thousands of Christians, Armenians, Greeks,
01:13:22.480okay ended burning every church in ani which was the capital at the time of armenia it was known
01:13:28.280as the city of a thousand one churches they ritually burned down every church destroyed
01:13:33.120every crucifix i tell you that to also underscore because a lot of people will tell you okay the
01:13:37.340turks you know it's people were warring it's different tribes and they try to um you know
01:13:41.400minimize the religious element so that's why i'm telling you that in their own sources it's very
01:13:47.200clear that they did what isis would do they symbolically were trying to denigrate christianity
01:13:52.460They would destroy churches. They would take the greatest cross of the greatest church and send it as a war trophy to Baghdad, to the Caliph. So my point is, it wasn't just warfare. It had that jihadist ideological component, which again, historians like to just ignore as some sort of whatever, but it's in the sources.
01:14:11.220and um they were also in the holy land you know you had pilgrims that were always going to the
01:14:16.500holy land even though it was a hard venture and they would get persecuted even before that under
01:14:21.060the arabs in the 7th 8th 9th centuries now the turks really took a new level and you know they
01:14:26.800would attack the pilgrims they would extort even more money than they had to pay there's one
01:14:31.220instant incident that happened in 1065 which really was a scandal they attacked a large
01:14:35.700german pilgrimage and they gang raped a nun and you know made everyone watch it like really
01:14:41.560horrific stuff they would go in churches and disembowel people and just smear the blood on
01:14:46.620the altar again as a form of mockery okay so this is what this is what's building up towards the
01:14:52.700first crusade and then um it really gets bad after the battle of manzikert which is one of my main
01:14:57.760battles also in in my book sort of i mean to to be perfectly honest given the behavior that we are
01:15:08.360seeing from all of these like islamic savages in western countries you know like they're they're
01:15:17.380going to christmas markets and they're plotting terrorist attacks at christmas markets you know
01:15:23.720they're going there with their like terrorist flags and, you
01:15:26.940know, yelling, globalize the Intifada or whatever at
01:15:29.180Christmas markets. I don't I don't understand how anyone can
01:15:34.600be surprised. Because all you have to do is read history. And
01:15:40.440you'll see that this sort of behavior is not a bug. It's a
01:15:47.000feature of of this ideology right so it's it's not like what you're seeing today is new right
01:15:57.480um this has been happening for 1400 years in scimitar and the christians again lose where
01:16:04.700is that battle it's in manzikert which is actually close to armenia in asia minor um the roman
01:16:10.900emperor at the time went trying again like yarmouth they went with a large army trying to
01:16:14.780stop these the seljuk turks and they lost and after that they just completely ran amok all
01:16:20.620westward and now they're attacking all asia minor of course i mean turkey what we call now it's
01:16:25.340turkey because it got conquered during this time um and asia minor by the way you know so turkey
01:16:30.820wait i have i have no idea why the youtube chat people are talking about robocop i missed that
01:16:37.660part about robocop but i just want to say um i actually really enjoyed robocop um although i
01:16:43.420haven't seen it in a long time so maybe my memories of robocop are not um you know because
01:16:51.540i watched it as a kid but i always thought it was a really cool movie so when you hear turkey you
01:16:57.020think okay it's a muslim nation this is this was such a christian nation that you know saint paul's
01:17:01.540letters most of them go there asia minor yeah a lot of them and uh so now it's all conquered and
01:17:08.220now they're right next to constantinople and they're on the verge of actually reaching and
01:17:12.140getting into the european mainland and the emperor the roman emperor at the time alexis he calls for
01:17:18.080aid from the franks and the you know the europe and he had friends there and you know some nobles
01:17:23.360and they all got together and long story short pope pope urban the second at the council of
01:17:28.320clermont in 1095 in november he basically stood up and he told everything that was happening he
01:17:33.660mentioned everything i'm telling you all the desecrations of churches all the rape of women
01:17:38.240and the forced Islamization of children
01:21:15.160So the first crusade is the most successful one.
01:21:19.420It's arguably the only successful one.
01:21:22.140Because they got what they wanted. They went through, the sufferings they went through are
01:21:26.560amazing, but they liberated various Christian regions and cities, Antioch, Edessa, and most
01:21:32.300importantly, Jerusalem, because that's what they really wanted. The Holy Sepulchre or the Church
01:21:36.620of the Resurrection was this massive complex that was built atop what is believed to have been
01:21:41.880Jesus's burial. Not just his burial, it was actually a humongous structure built during
01:21:47.720in Constantine's time, in the 300s, that in this church, you actually had where Jesus
01:21:53.380was betrayed, the Garden of Gethsemane, and then you also had where he was crucified,
01:21:58.640and you have where he was buried, okay, and resurrected. And a quick anecdote, which I
01:22:04.760almost forgot, but is pivotal to what we're talking about. In the year 1009, okay, so we
01:22:08.560got to go back in time a little bit. And just, again, what I'm going to tell you is going to,
01:22:12.460again, underscore just how Christian that region was and underscore the sorts of persecution that
01:22:16.880went but there was a fatimid caliph in egypt and the fatimids were shia okay and his name is hakim
01:22:22.200and this guy okay they call him the mad caliph because they want to they want to pretend that
01:22:29.780what he's did what i'm going to tell you was of the product of a maniac right here and there's
01:22:34.360no rationale under him he had 30 000 churches in egypt and in greater syria destroyed okay so first
01:22:41.820of all 30 000 that's a humongous number of churches in an area that i thought was muslim
01:22:46.200okay um and the source for this which a lot of western people try to ignore is an arabic muslim
01:22:52.000source al makrizi all right and he says 30 000 and people say no no that's a mistake he put one
01:22:57.280more one two one too many zeros you know he meant 300 and historians all write oh 300 churches but
01:23:02.720he wrote 30 000 including the holy sepulcher the one that i'm discussing he had it destroyed
01:23:07.620and pulverized and then it was later rebuilt a smaller version but the one that was that i was
01:23:12.560telling you about by constantine he had it raised to the ground this most important place um for
01:23:17.900christianity as far as my geography of jerusalem goes that must have been huge because yeah where
01:23:22.900i know the the rock where the crucifix was the distance of that where it is believed yeah you're
01:23:29.120talking about the rock with the round stone that there's two places that people believe where christ
01:23:33.660was um uh buried the the one you're talking about i think is the later one mostly protestants
01:23:39.520actually except catholics and and orthodox believe it was somewhere which was actually
01:23:44.240close okay yeah okay we're the crusades the first one is the most successful right and then
01:23:51.360how did the first crusades end yeah let me just finish the fatima thing because this is very
01:23:55.200important because it ties up to what we're talking about so 30 000 churches destroyed
01:23:59.040and again i want to remind you you have these people who are telling us five centuries of
01:24:02.800peaceful coexistence were between muslims um
01:24:12.320yeah absolutely absolutely um i'm always happy to um do crossovers and um you know work work
01:24:20.480together on on that and you know support one another um so i hate i hate to admit this because
01:24:29.200I feel terrible, but I've actually received a lot of requests from different people across
01:24:35.980various YouTube channels who are like reaching out to me on various social media platforms
01:24:40.860who want me to go on their podcasts and speak. It's just been very difficult for me to keep
01:24:48.760track of all of it because right now I'm really working on sort of building my channel and I'm
01:24:57.940also working on my website to kind of like have a website. So I don't really have like official
01:25:05.340contact info right now. But like, I'm hoping that I will have like my, my, you know, website with
01:25:14.640like my official contact info up and running within like the next week or so. And then that
01:25:22.680way, at least when people reach out to me, um, they'll know how to get ahold of me because right
01:25:28.580now people are like trying to DM me, um, or, you know, whatever. And I just, I get like so many
01:25:35.260DMs on Instagram and Tik TOK and X that, um, I can't keep track, but I definitely do want to
01:25:42.100do collabs with a lot of people. There's a lot of people who are interested, um, definitely on,
01:25:48.800on my radar for sure 100% but thank you so much for the suggestion and thank you for um the support
01:25:58.340I think you just became a channel member during this live stream so I really appreciate that
01:26:03.000appreciate the super comment um I actually am I just opened a rumble account um just like a few
01:26:11.780days ago. So I am actually streaming this on Rumble right now. But I think I only have like
01:26:20.860four followers on Rumble. Let me see. Yep. I only have four followers on Rumble. And even though I
01:26:32.000am live streaming this on Rumble as well, I literally have like zero people watching this.
01:26:37.780So, but, uh, I'm, I'm a little bit late to the rumble game and I haven't even uploaded all of my videos. So I have to go back, um, to like, I basically just need some time where I just go to rumble and all the videos that I've already uploaded to YouTube, I need to like re upload, um, to, to rumble. And I really need to work on building that, um, building it up. But, um, yeah, no, thank you for the suggestion. I would definitely be interested, um, in, in doing collabs with, with other people.
01:27:07.780um i just need a little bit of time to kind of like get everything set up and organized and so
01:27:13.220that there's also a way for people to get a hold of me where i actually um get all all the emails
01:27:20.660and all the contact requests but no thank you for that thank you for the support and for the
01:27:25.580suggestion and christians what i just told you is 1009 this is the time frame they're talking about
01:27:31.14030 000 churches were completely destroyed okay and these people are writing books and saying
01:27:36.640everything was fine until the first crusade you see how they present things in a vacuum
01:27:40.720they don't want you to they want you to think that the christians were the aggressors they had
01:27:45.860no reason to do what they did okay all right so then okay the crusades you have various
01:27:51.680what gives rise to them is essentially then the muslims start winning back and conquering so around
01:27:57.3401144 you have the second crusade because some muslim sultan destroys edessa on christmas day
01:28:03.980which was a christian principality and uh it was full of armenians and greeks
01:28:08.520and again to give you an idea and the sources when the franks and the crusaders came and
01:28:13.240liberated these regions which had a lot of indigenous christians armenians and greeks and
01:28:17.940syriacs what's what's my rumble channel name i think it's oh i you know what i don't even know
01:28:25.760if I have a channel I think it's just like my rumble account um I mean let me see here like
01:28:37.300I'm telling you like I'm still I'm still trying to figure out rumble so yeah it's just it's just
01:28:44.560Jigamari it's just Jigamari here um like I can I can show you um I guess I should is that how
01:28:54.260Rumble works. Like, do I have to make a channel on top of like my account? I don't know. Um,
01:29:01.780here I'll show you what it looks like. So this is my Rumble account guys. I only have,
01:29:07.620I have four followers on Rumble. So to whoever my four, uh, Rumble followers are, you guys are
01:29:16.100the og um thank you for that and uh as you can see um i am technically like not technically i am

01:29:47.780i'm sorry that rumble is a little lonely right now i promise that i will work on um i'll work
01:29:53.720on building my rumble channel i promise i promise but uh whoever that one mvp is on rumble like you
01:30:01.060are the real i have no idea who it is i can't see um i just see that it's like one viewer here so
01:30:07.140yeah but but to to the person on rumble uh you are the real mvp and i do appreciate you for sure
01:30:14.040so all right the sources talk about how they threw themselves and kissed their hands and feet
01:30:19.500now why would they do that i thought i thought they lived in harmony with their muslim over
01:30:23.380why would they want these strange men from europe because they were all christians okay and they
01:30:28.780were being persecuted um so in 10 uh 1144 the edessa is completely ransacked and destroyed
01:30:34.960and just again like very sadistic stuff is happening to the women and children and it gave
01:30:42.140rise to a new crusade okay and that one was abysmal failure you know they got nothing they
01:30:47.320just died everyone who came it was uh under king louis and conrad i believe the german emperor
01:30:53.460completely destroyed and then you know things kind of status quo and you still have jerusalem
01:30:59.240and you still have antioch and other places and then you get the rise of saladin okay and he's
01:31:04.180very as we all know very popular and uh uh you know he he actually um conquers jerusalem all
01:31:11.480right he had the the major battle the battle of hatin the two horns which is again my in my bug
01:31:16.880sword and scimitar has a whole chapter in 1187 he wins and he beats a massive crusader army of the
01:31:23.140kingdom of jerusalem and after that they all fall like dominoes he conquers jerusalem he conquers a
01:31:27.820lot of christian territories and there's only a few left and that's what calls the third crusade
01:31:32.220king richard is of course the one whose spears had it but also king philip as well from france
01:31:38.220um and barbarossa the german emperor who unfortunately brought the biggest army but
01:31:43.460then died on his way he fell in the river he was very old um but you know and very and king
01:31:49.720richard is very impressive i have a whole chapter dedicated to him and the third crusade and
01:31:54.220defenders of the west because he's when you read about this guy in the actual sources it's amazing
01:31:59.260apparently he was a giant okay something like six six or you know because oh really yeah and
01:32:04.740that time and and the sources just describe him always leading his men being the center of the
01:32:10.600charge the first one in decapitating slaughtering everyone and the muslims themselves actually in
01:32:16.740their sources talk about him like that so he was uh quite the formidable character uh very
01:32:22.400interesting anyway the third crusade was kind of uh not a total victory but not a total loss
01:32:28.300like him and salad and made a treaty so christians can go back to jerusalem but it was still under
01:32:33.580islamic control and and and you know whatever and um then you have the fourth crusade which is
01:32:39.280basically which people love to point fingers at because it's where the crusaders go and sack
01:32:44.840constantinople right christians attacking christians and that has its own story and
01:32:49.940different versions of why that happened um but before we get into that i'm just remembering
01:32:53.700again very important point about saladin before we leave saladin um now this guy have you you've
01:32:59.700heard how magnanimous saladin was right and for because i follow this and i read a lot of books
01:33:05.700okay about this he's always held up as this great magnanimous and very tolerant uh you know sultan
01:33:11.940until today people say christians can learn from him and his magnanimity etc etc and he's to me and
01:33:19.660i made a video about him you know he's the epitome of fake history because why did people say that so
01:33:24.780okay if you look in the sources especially the so here's what they'll tell you when saladin
01:33:30.780conquered jerusalem which he did uh in 1187 he allowed the christians to leave peacefully and he
01:33:36.860was very magnanimous and they always contrast it with the first crusade uh in 1099 when the
01:33:42.300christians conquered jerusalem apparently there was a bloodbath okay they killed everyone in sight
01:33:47.340okay so they use this now what they don't tell you okay is one according to the muslim sources
01:33:54.380he was like a fanatic jihadist who did nothing but like but persecute anyone who went against
01:33:59.660islamic law in egypt he had the christians the cops persecuted he had their churches tarred for
01:34:05.980what did they do right um they're not crusaders and then uh he had after the battle of han a group
01:34:12.780the group the knights of the temple in the hospital he gave them a choice to convert to islam
01:34:17.100or be beheaded they all said no and he had something like 300 of them decapitated in fact
01:34:21.960going back to how isis you know likes to live off history when you see isis the islamic state and
01:34:27.100those videos they made of copta christians or whoever and they have them in the orange jumpsuit
01:34:31.400and they push them over and carve their heads off that is directly lifted from what saladin had
01:34:36.460done to these christians at the battle of hand exactly that's how it's described and they're
01:34:41.020emulating it okay and uh you know also he did all sorts of other nasty stuff his his dying wish was
01:34:47.980to not just get rid of the crusaders in the holy land but to invade europe until no one lived who
01:34:53.340didn't believe in allah i mean this doesn't sound like a magnanimous tolerant guy to me you know
01:34:57.820what i mean okay um and then in even what he did in in um in jerusalem this supposedly magnanimous
01:35:04.540gesture he no bloodbath if you look at the sources what really happened is they told him he was
01:35:09.760besieging. And he said, okay. And they tried to surrender. And he said, no, I'm going to kill
01:35:13.600every last one of you. But then they said, okay, we're going to destroy Al-Aqsa Mosque because
01:35:17.620they had possession of, we're going to destroy all the holy sites of Islam and we're going to
01:35:21.380kill our hostages. So he finally agreed to let them go if they can pay a ransom. Okay. And the
01:35:28.180ones who couldn't, which was something like 8,000 or 16,000, I have the number written down
01:35:33.120and mostly women and children, because they were poor, were consigned to slavery. Okay. So it's
01:35:38.860like but he's being used today as this paragon of virtue and magnanimity okay and people believe
01:35:45.900that and where does it come from it actually comes from sir walter scott's novels okay yeah he
01:35:51.640created this chivalrous kind of saladin and all of a sudden that's what people believe as if it's
01:35:56.500real history okay so anyway i just wanted to emphasize that because uh you know saladin is
01:36:01.060a very popular figure when we talk about the crusades and so much of what is said about him
01:36:04.980is just, you know, overdone just so you can, so they can put up a Muslim on a pedestal and try to
01:36:10.980shame Christians with. But when you look at the reality, it's just not there. And where did the
01:36:15.260Jews fit in all of this? Were they, I understood that many of them were killed. Yeah. Yeah. So
01:36:20.820the Jews, you know, even before, I mean, and here's again, one of those things where people
01:36:25.100try to demonize the crusades because they attacked and killed Jews and they did. But, you know,
01:36:30.340the Jews were being attacked and killed by Christians even before that. But what happened
01:36:33.860is um you know a lot of it was mostly the peasant crusaders not the actual knights and you know the
01:36:40.100formal armies but a lot of them would go and you know they'd get riled up and say why are we
01:36:44.980traveling all this distance during their long trek to kill infidels who hate jesus when we have them
01:36:50.420right here the jews who killed him and they would rile themselves up and they'd go attack and kill
01:36:55.620them there's some terrible pogroms yeah yeah but you know it's also important to know that the church
02:29:06.280okay yes jefferson was massage jefferson was massage with the ambassador from barbary i think
02:29:14.420triple e abdul something oh i'm your favorite boomer tuber thank you yes i am old i am old like
02:29:22.140i don't i don't hide the fact guys i'm not i'm not 20 like i i don't know why people think calling
02:29:28.840me a boomer is is like a bad thing like i'm i'm old guys i'm i am an old person i'm old i have
02:29:38.860gray hairs um i have back aches i have wrinkles i have it all okay you know it's i have it in my
02:29:46.860book and they say what if you you know we're willing to be friends and trade why are you
02:29:50.760attacking us what have we done to you and then jefferson he wrote a letter to congress which
02:29:54.800we still have with the ambassador's response and to paraphrase it he basically told him our quran
02:30:01.560says and our prophet says you're our enemy and it's our right and duty to attack and plunder
02:30:05.940and kill you and enslave you wherever we can find you and most people don't realize that he was
02:30:09.760actually paraphrasing quran nine five which is known in islam as the sword verse and it says
02:30:15.680lay in wait and lay in wait wherever you can find the infidel and ambush them and kill them and
02:30:21.760enslave them okay so anyway so it's the same mentality same logic america's very first war
02:30:27.420it just became a nation it hasn't even had its first president yet george washington and it gets
02:30:32.400dragged into eventually two wars okay the first is the barbara first barbary war in 1801 and that
02:30:37.460drags on and again in 1815 okay so you know so here look we fast forwarded almost 1200 years
02:30:44.920since the battle of yarmouk right in 636 now we're in 1815 and it's the same mentality same logic
02:30:50.820And it's the same thing that they tell us. Islam doesn't mean that. Islam means peace. And that's how effective they've been. They've gotten that narrative to become dominant, even though the long storied past of history is very, it's an unwavering continuity of Islamic hostility based on Islamic teachings and, you know, jihad.
02:31:13.620so we'll come up to the present day but before we do seeing as you've mentioned the quran i guess
02:31:19.860there's a you have also said you're not a theologian so i i remember that
02:31:32.100where do you think this comes from within islam and is it the
02:31:36.900back wait what some someone said that i'm gone you guys lost me what
02:31:53.300did my live stream cut out or someone trolling
02:32:00.020oh my gosh okay so someone was trolling okay someone was troll
02:32:06.900Don't do that. Don't do that, guys. I've had issues in the past where my live stream just like cuts out and then I go black. Oh my gosh. Okay. Okay. All right. See, see, I'm, I'm, I'm paying attention always. Okay. All right. Let's continue.
02:32:27.500behavior is it the example of muhammad or the example of these first early muslim warriors and
02:32:38.280i think it's an important one because we look at islamism today and uh it's clearly you know we
02:32:44.700talk about isis and uh all these muslim brotherhood and we talk about israel hamas and um it's clear
02:32:52.100that there's a there's there's an aspect of islam that is like like the the the description you just
02:33:00.720cited that is uh i guess violent um and um and there's a contention there that this idea of
02:33:08.500peaceful muslims moderate muslims and i guess yeah i i i i'm not sure exactly what my question
02:33:17.340here is but uh the origins of all this yeah yeah like how much is this from the quran how much is
02:33:24.000this from muhammad what's your perspective on that yeah okay it's all you have to understand
02:33:28.740how islamic law works okay so according to his standard islamic teaching amongst sunnis who are
02:33:34.00090 of the muslim world um you know the twin the twin sources of authority are the quran which is
02:33:40.480understood to be the literal words of allah and then what's called the hadith okay plural it's
02:33:45.900hadith but i'm going to say hadiths to anglicize it and um all they are are vast volumes and volumes
02:33:52.780and volumes of what muhammad supposedly said and did okay and according to the muslim you know
02:33:58.420scientists as they call themselves the ulama you know they rank them uh there's what's called
02:34:02.840sahih meaning it's correct it's authentic he did say this and that takes on almost the same value
02:34:08.400as the quran okay and there's a lot of that now based on those two things hatred for the non-muslim
02:34:15.740is unequivocal and continuously documented war on them as jihad continuously documented uh treating
02:34:23.740you know the non-muslim who gets conquered as a dhimmi which means they have to live as a second
02:34:27.740class citizen and pay tribute unequivocally documented these are totally enshrined based
02:34:33.100on the quran and the words of muhammad okay his example and muslims the word sunni i mentioned
02:34:38.220them you know the sunni means like the example so they're a sunni is trying to follow the example
02:34:43.260of muhammad so muhammad waged war on infidels that's what we have to do as well so it's
02:34:48.700unequivocally clear you know anyone a person will tell you that no islam doesn't teach violence etc
02:34:54.220he's either really really ignorant or being very very deceptive and it could be one or the other
02:34:59.580um but if you've taken the time to study them as i have in their original languages and that's
02:35:04.060another problem if you look at the quran today it's they're mistranslating it intentionally
02:35:09.020they add words that don't exist you know so for example quran 929 will say which literally says
02:35:15.100fight the people of the book which means jews and christians until they pay tribute and feel
02:35:19.500themselves subdued okay and that's that's the teaching that come that's what justifies jizya
02:35:24.620it uses the word jizya um a lot of english now quran translations say fight the people of the
02:35:30.300book if they fight wait did did someone in the youtube comments just say i like how the british
02:35:36.620is telling someone from the Middle East what Islam is. Are you inbred or are you just retarded
02:35:44.760because Raymond Ibrahim is from Israel? Sorry, he's from Egypt. Raymond Ibrahim is from Egypt
02:35:51.640and just because he doesn't speak with an accent doesn't mean he's not from the area.
02:35:58.480It's literally like how people are like, oh, you're not from the Middle East. You don't speak
02:36:03.700with an accent and i'm like how how stupid are you like not everyone um from the middle east
02:36:09.500speaks with an accent so she's like like your your low iq is really showing right now like
02:36:16.840you're embarrassing yourself um your your family tree probably looks more like a circle just saying
02:36:23.800you first okay and okay so now it doesn't look so bad this is again defensive war this is just
02:36:31.300war the original doesn't say they fight you first says you attack them so there's unfortunately a
02:36:35.860lot of playing around with islamic scriptures intent intended to deceive infidels um but yeah
02:36:42.900that it's it's just it's that simple that's what the two twin pillars of islamic the the islam is
02:36:48.940islam's authority the quran hadith say and the quran is the word of god and i read the crown a
02:36:53.520few years ago and it what the difficult thing for me apart from certain of some certain of the
02:36:59.120scriptures like the ones mentioned already is that it says throughout it you must take this
02:37:03.620literally and you can't so so the idea of a sort of islamic reformation against this it seems to
02:37:10.620be tricky having said that and i'll come back to europe but i look around the world now where i
02:37:17.700have hope with relations between the western world and the islamic world is yeah but but the host
02:37:22.980the host isn't talking about anything the host is asking questions and raymond is answering so
02:37:30.260i mean if anyone is watching this and thinking that the host is teaching us about islam my
02:37:39.300argument still stands they're either inbred or retarded or i don't know maybe possibly both
02:37:44.260because the host is the host is being a good host the host is engaging in a conversation
02:37:49.380that is encouraging Raymond Ibrahim to talk about various things. So yeah, it's just honestly like
02:37:59.140the low IQ of some people who are unable to understand how a conversation works.
02:38:04.460But then again, like that person, that person is probably just used to, you know, just being like
02:38:12.040spoken at, right? Like spoken at by imams or whatever. That person's probably not used to
02:38:18.780having a back and forth conversation. So that's why he's probably confused about the conversation.
02:38:27.800The leaders of, let's say, the Emirati leaders, were the signatories of the Abraham Accords.
02:38:35.720And I see, oh, actually, these are people who are taking Islamism seriously. They recognize
02:38:40.300the problem. They're even calling the Westerners out for not taking it serious enough. The Emiratis
02:38:46.640has been fantastic on this, particularly Mohammed bin Zayed. For me, the hope is that these people
02:38:53.340are interpreting the scripture in a certain way that means that there will be relations much
02:39:00.860improved from everything you've described in history. Do you think I'm right to feel this way?
02:39:05.720No, I think there's room for optimism for a number of reasons. The insurmountable hurdle
02:39:12.600is what i just described okay the texts are so black and white you know it literally says in the
02:39:17.600quran that if you're a muslim you have to hate non-muslims and i've watched cleric after cleric
02:39:22.660say things like yeah even if you're married because islam allows muslim men to marry christian
02:39:26.560women or jews and he'll say yeah you can marry them and have fun with them sexually but you have
02:39:30.740to hate them and you have to let them know you hate them okay that's that's how much it's so
02:39:34.920ironclad now you know and this is the whole question about what's a moderate muslim okay so
02:39:39.540yeah i don't believe in a moderate islam because it's just not there it's black and white but i do
02:39:44.720believe in moderate muslims because humans are subjective and they can do whatever they want
02:39:48.460right they can believe they can just reinterpret it their own way they can ignore it i mean so i
02:39:53.900believe you have that it exists it's just it's very hard to doctrinally justify it okay against
02:40:00.380the hardliners that's why they always end up winning the arguments because it goes back to
02:40:04.680what the Quran says and what the Hadith says. But there's all kinds of leeway and ways to get
02:40:10.600around this, I suppose. But you're right. A lot of people, they say we want a reformation of Islam.
02:40:19.920And what they don't get is actually something very akin to the Protestant Reformation has
02:40:24.140been happening, and it's what led to radicalism. Not because Protestantism is radical, but the
02:40:29.500same methodology and i'll explain what i'm saying protestantism essentially uh was you know solo
02:40:34.720scriptura we don't we're done with clergies and whatever we just want the bible okay and um islam
02:40:41.300before for a while has always been yeah the quran and the sunnah but most people were illiterate
02:40:46.280muslims and you had to rely on the ulama and the scholars and the shaykhs etc and there were schools
02:40:51.380of law and there still are which could you know modify teachings certain ways or not well like
02:40:57.060the Protestant Reformation, you know, since modern times, now the Quran is available on
02:41:01.820the internet, okay? And Muslims are literate and they can read Arabic. And what's happening
02:41:06.460is they're becoming more and more going back to the scriptures and not caring so much about
02:41:11.060what the schools of law, they're called medeheb, say. So it's almost like a sola scriptura
02:41:16.360mentality, but the result is the exact opposite. Because if you're a Christian who just goes
02:41:22.160by the Bible, well, you're going to turn the other cheek and you're going to love your
02:41:24.940neighbor and you're going to believe in monogamy, et cetera, et cetera. If you go strictly with what
02:41:29.460I'm talking about, the Quran and the Hadith, well, that's where all the hatred comes and the violence
02:41:33.800and basically a seventh century Bedouin mentality. I mean, that's what's captured there.
02:41:39.180So what people really want is not a reformation of Islam, which I don't think is possible. They
02:41:44.120want an enlightenment, which was basically, you know, not even caring what the scriptures say,
02:41:49.240just rising above it. And, you know, how you rationalize that people can do whatever they
02:41:53.840want. I mean, look amongst Christians, you have all kinds of different beliefs and teachings,
02:41:58.080even though one Christian will say, oh, the Bible says this. And so of course it can be done,
02:42:02.580but you're going to need, and the leaders, you have to remember, they can do what they can do.
02:42:06.260But a lot of the, you know, the people are, you know, Saudi Arabia is our good friend and ally.
02:42:11.620And I know they're also sometimes part of these accords, et cetera, but they're also the chief
02:42:15.540disseminators of radical Islam. Okay. They're the ones who fund this. You know, if you go to a mosque
02:42:21.820in England and you find it has radical hateful books it's coming from Saudi Arabia you know so
02:42:28.320it's and again we have to contend with this idea of Takeya Islam or you know also coming from the
02:42:35.040Islamic Republic occupying Iran let's let's not forget about that allowing deception of the
02:42:41.380infidel as needed okay so we're in a weak phase then we have to you know be accommodating to them
02:42:47.180and not hate them openly so all that needs to be taken into consideration but having said that
02:42:52.140i think if western powers or the non-muslim world just dropped the act and said look we understand
02:42:58.700your religion we understand it has violence and we understand this but we're not going to tolerate
02:43:02.700it and you know in other words call them out and stop playing this game as if no no it's not there
02:43:07.620it is there let's confront it it's there but when we try to confront it those same groups that are
02:43:17.460funded by saudi arabia and qatar and the muslim brotherhood and the islamic republic
02:43:22.820those groups then cry islamophobia and you have to ask yourselves why is it that only islamophobia
02:43:31.540exists there's no such thing as christian phobia or hindu phobia or you know jewish phobia or um
02:43:41.460i don't know buddhist phobia or zoroastrian phobia why is there only a phobia for one
02:43:49.540particular religion and that particular religion is the one that is literally the most violent one
02:43:57.460in the world and the one that goes around chopping people's heads off in the name of Allah, right?
02:44:05.720So it's almost like they created the word Islamophobia preemptively to silence people
02:44:14.000from criticizing the fact that there is a violent element to their religion. And when you try to
02:44:22.940confront it right when you try to confront it you're accused of being a bigot or racist even
02:44:30.560though islam is not a race or islamophobic or whatever the case may be right so this is a very
02:44:36.660good point that that raymond is making here you know it has to be confronted but the challenge
02:44:42.220is when you try to confront it the islamist groups come after you and the leaders you have to remember
02:44:48.840they can do what they can do but a lot of the you know the people you know saudi arabia is our good
02:44:54.920friend and ally and i know they're also sometimes part of these accords etc but they're also the
02:44:59.400chief disseminators of radical islam okay they're the ones who fund this you know if you go to a
02:45:05.560mosque in in england and you find it has radical hateful books it's coming from saudi arabia you
02:45:11.960know so it's and again we have to contend with this idea of takaya islam allowing deception of
02:45:17.720the infidel as needed okay so we're in a weak phase then we have to you know be accommodating
02:45:23.400to them and not hate them openly so all that needs to be taken into consideration but having
02:45:28.280said that i think if western powers or the non-muslim world just dropped the act and said
02:45:34.360look we understand your religion we understand it has violence and we understand this but we're not
02:45:38.680going to tolerate it and you know in other words call them out and stop playing this game as if no
02:45:43.320no, no, it's not there. It is there. Let's confront it and let's work around it.
02:45:47.440I suspect if you were to do that, then a lot of the problems might go away.
02:46:57.860And this is what I kind of want to, your whole history,
02:47:00.980I wonder how we can make it relevant to what's going on in that
02:47:05.240because you're sort of given a historical context
02:47:07.200And Muslims are moving to Europe en masse in hugely growing Muslim populations, particularly in contrast with the declining, let's say, quote-unquote, indigenous population, Christian population, and Christianity is also on the decline anyway amongst those.
02:47:26.860So I wanted your perspective on how we might find social cohesion today in Europe.
02:47:34.220Sure. So let me give you some more context, because you're right, you know, the history I told you, and there's so elements of it that we need to talk about to make sense of what you're discussing. So one of the, you know, one of the earliest motifs amongst Islamic scholars, and this goes back to about the eighth and ninth centuries, was that, you know, and I hate to put it this way, but that's how they put it, like, white women want it, okay? And white women are desirable, and they're the number, and I was telling you about the Vikings bringing slaves, they wanted fair slaves.
02:48:03.200this is a well-documented thing that goes back to muhammad you know for during one campaign the
02:48:08.400campaign against it's called tabuk where he was supposed to fight the eastern roman empires which
02:48:12.320would be greeks he actually tried to cajole men to join him by saying don't you want the people
02:48:16.880of yellow and and and he talks about the women how beautiful they are but yellow i assume means
02:48:22.320hair a lot of people try to understand what that means does it mean hair fair skin whatever
02:48:26.080um so there's a long kind of like this almost like sadomasochistic thing of presenting white
02:48:31.680women as wanting it and just like okay so now fast forward and what you're talking about believe it
02:48:38.080or not because i've looked into it very closely and the muslims the pakistanis and whatnot they
02:48:42.640use the same exact logic and they quote that and they say yeah islam already told us these people
02:48:47.600want it and um so someone asked have i seen cam higby debate muslims leftists at universities no
02:48:57.520um because like i'll be honest i'm not really interested in the theological debate or anything
02:49:05.000like that like my channel is focused more on um islamic terrorism jihad politics the middle east
02:49:13.440right so um i mean if people want to debate religion they can go in and debate religion
02:49:20.120But that really has no bearing or impact on Islamic terrorism, which is based on observable facts and based on history. Right. And so something that's like a proven fact in history is non-debatable.
02:49:38.440so I mean I don't really watch those because it's just I just feel like it's a waste of my time
02:49:45.580and like I just I don't like listening to stupid people so that's why I just like I can't listen
02:49:55.860to anyone debate Islamists or leftists because if I listen to that I feel like I lose brain cells
02:50:02.860um like I would much rather listen to to someone like Raymond Ibrahim and learn something about
02:50:10.160history so um I guess I guess it could be interesting for like entertainment purposes
02:50:17.480maybe um so to everyone watching the live stream like if you're interested definitely go um check
02:50:24.700out Cam Higby and you know see what he does but again like the like the theological side of things
02:50:31.640is, I'm not interested in that. Like my focus is more on, you know, the Islamic terrorists who
02:50:39.000yell Allahu Akbar while they blow themselves up or chop people's heads off, right? And
02:50:45.280how to prevent that from happening in Western societies. Yeah. Oh, Bridget Gabriel. I've
02:50:52.800actually, I've done several live streams with Bridget Gabriel as well. So if you go and you
02:50:58.580check out um my playlist the the goldie show on my youtube channel you'll find a few live streams
02:51:05.020where i've actually played several of bridget gabriel's um interviews she's fantastic i love
02:51:12.300her that's what they're for and they like it etc etc so just you know something to keep in back
02:51:17.700actual quote from muhammad yeah and in a hadith yeah the the quote is that he basically said um
02:51:24.180you know uh oh wait someone on x asked if i've seen like some random person talk about me no
02:51:31.040um i i know i piss off a lot of jihadis or other people i don't care um if anything when they do
02:51:41.400that it basically like that's basically free promotion for me so um again like i was i was
02:51:46.880a politician um i was in politics for 10 years i was an elected official for seven years there is
02:51:53.660literally nothing that anyone can say about me that would upset me or negatively impact me in
02:52:02.520any way, shape or form. The fact that they're talking about me is actually, I don't even know
02:52:08.440who these people are, but if they're talking about me, that means I'm on the right path because I've
02:52:14.500definitely hit a few nerves. So there you go. That's basically free press for me. So whoever
02:52:22.260that person is thank you for being so triggered by my videos that you felt the need to make a video
02:52:28.500um to to talk about it and you're basically just exposing yourself for the jihadi you are
02:52:34.100anyways yeah so yeah no i don't i don't watch all of the i don't watch any of the jihadis who
02:52:41.000criticize me i'm i'm sure there's tons of them out there but you know that's that's irrelevant
02:52:47.440to me my focus is just on um raising awareness and uh that's it yeah uh don't you want the the
02:52:56.300people of yellow yeah like come join me on this raid so we can get pretty blonde women basically
02:53:02.000okay okay and um but even i you know i'm saying it starts with them but you find iterations of
02:53:08.100this all throughout okay you know most caliphs people don't know this but uh you know even
02:53:13.300amongst the ottomans but especially in spain you know their last caliph was something like 99
02:53:18.560white why because every sultan would mate with white women you know and he would you know be
02:53:25.300half diluted sorry someone asked about ayin hersi ali i've actually featured ayin hersi ali as well
02:53:32.420um in my previous podcasts so definitely go check that out you'll see um you'll see the ones where
02:53:40.140i feature i and her see ali and her speeches as well i love her she's phenomenal i encourage
02:53:45.780everyone to follow her so at the very end a lot of these sultans were essentially blonde hair and
02:53:50.220blue-eyed but they're muslim sultans right uh so this is so anyway my point is this so you bring
02:53:56.920a muslim population that thinks this way and you put them in england what do you think is going
02:54:01.340to happen and you teach women to be promiscuous or whatever you know free love etc what's going
02:54:07.060to happen this is gonna happen obviously okay um as as far as you're asking me you know how to get
02:54:12.840past all that and the thing with england and and i mean you tell me is is the attack on sense is
02:54:19.220free speech getting that bad because it seems like you can't even you can't call out like you
02:54:23.980just said you can't even call something what it is anymore um it's amazing yeah i mean that's a
02:54:29.660whole other and people being arrested and you know it's like uh anyway so it's just amazing to me you
02:54:36.620know you compare and contrast what i've been talking about which is you know europeans king
02:54:40.440richard speaking of england who fought tooth and nail to keep islam out of europe okay and now all
02:54:47.060of a sudden and this is why history and doctrine is important because they've told us the exact
02:54:51.920opposite of what i'm saying which is no islam is wonderful it means peace what are you talking
02:54:55.440about let's bring them in by the boatloads or whatever millions and guess what you see what's
02:55:01.260happening happening because it's just a continuum of what always happened so on the one hand you
02:55:05.800muslims walking in perfect step with their ancestors and now you have muslim westerners
02:55:10.120in perfect discontinuity with their ancestors you know they've just completely or perhaps
02:55:14.520continuity with the ancestors pre uh the uh the first invasion from the the of islam into europe
02:55:23.320so this is like if you go about 1500 years right that is it do you see some sort of parallel of
02:55:27.720that do you think or is that a stretch well no because there was no time in history where islam
02:55:33.000tried to get into europe that they said come on in they just either lost and fought like in spain
02:55:38.200right okay but they always resisted so this is the first time this is unprecedented what's
02:55:42.520happening where you know you're you're you're inviting them and they're acting the same way
02:55:47.000as usual and your people are suffering and then you buckle down even more and you know stifle
02:55:52.600your people and keep bringing in more and you know it's just like what's really going on then
02:55:57.960And is there anywhere else in the world outside of Europe where there is, where Muslims and
02:56:06.000Christians and Jews have been able to live side by side?
02:56:09.360You know, in Europe, you have countries like Albania and maybe Montenegro.
02:56:13.840Well, we had in the Bosnian world, we had concentration camps with Muslims rounded up.
02:56:16.940So it's not really a great place to look, I don't think.
02:56:24.740But the reason, honestly, is the Muslims are not very Muslim.
02:56:27.960And the Christians aren't even very Christian.
02:56:29.840In other words, the people there are very secular.
02:56:32.160You look at a Muslim in a lot of these European countries,
02:56:35.440and they don't know the first thing about—I've talked to them,
02:56:37.860and they don't know the first thing about Islam, but they're Muslim by name.
02:56:42.740So I think that's one of the reasons that you can have that.
02:56:46.780Look, if Muslims are in power, and they're the dominant group,
02:56:51.920and they're upholding and following Islamic teachings,
02:56:54.200then by nature, the non-Muslim, the Jew, the Christian is going to have to live as a second
02:56:58.820class citizen. Okay. So like in Egypt, for example, you know, which was a very Christian nation
02:57:03.960and now it's 90% Muslim, let's say 10% Christian. Okay. So there's constant persecution, but there's
02:57:10.520all these laws against churches. Okay. So I just read a report finally came out, um, you know,
02:57:15.980the numbers and long story short, Christians are always complaining. We need churches and they're
02:57:21.540not allowing them to build churches and if you go back to islamic law islamic teaching which i was
02:57:25.940discussing as based on the hadith and so forth you're not supposed to christians who are conquered
02:57:30.760they can live and pay tribute but they can't build their churches so until today in a modern nation
02:57:35.920like egypt you have that law or kernels of it still exist okay and it came out because it finally
02:57:41.280came out that when you do all the number crunching for every one church that christians have muslims
02:57:47.360have 60 if you if you even up their numbers as population i mean think about how obvious
02:57:52.320discrimination that is okay and they're also but egypt's publicly will tell everyone the world no
02:57:57.500no we treat our citizens the same okay they all have the same religious freedom but one to 60
02:58:02.740that ratio is pretty you know pretty telling so but egypt you know its constitution article 2 says
02:58:10.040we trace our legislation to sharia and so it's even in their it's in the constitution so as long
02:58:16.100Muslims are going to live. It's just plain and simple. The Islamic law, Islamic teaching is
02:58:20.880black and white, and it is divisive. It is discriminatory, and it does incite violence
02:58:26.320against the non-Muslim. That's it. Now, to what extent Muslims are going to enforce that or live
02:58:32.000up to it? Maybe some don't care. In that case, you can live with them. I often give a good
02:58:38.000analogy. I try to understand what a moderate Muslim is. It's the Nazi analogy, which is
02:58:46.080little you know here we go hear me out hear me out it doesn't sound so bad you hear me out okay so
02:58:52.300he went there no no all right well here's what i'm saying nazism is a body of teachings it's
02:58:59.640an ideology okay and it has supremacy white supremacist ideas in it okay and it has other
02:59:04.980teachings whatever national socialists they come to power um and then you got a guy like oscar
02:59:11.100schindler all right and he was a nazi he was an actual ranking nazi and you know his story he
02:59:16.200saved jews and etc and he went out of his way and you know no small threat to himself but he was a
02:59:22.080nazi okay so my question to you is what he did his good deed was that an aspect of his personality
02:59:30.220of him rising above nazism or was he practicing a moderate form of nazism okay i think you're
02:59:37.160going to tell me he just rose above it and did not implement the, you know, the, the supremacist
02:59:42.440aspect, killing Jews, whatever. Okay. He rose above it. And that's how we have to understand
02:59:47.260Muslims and moderate Muslims. Okay. The Islam has its negative teachings, its violence,
02:59:52.100its divisiveness, its hate. Okay. If a Muslim doesn't act that way and there, I mean, no,
02:59:56.760there are, I know there's Muslims that don't do that. Okay. And they're good people. Is that
03:00:00.680because they're practicing moderate Islam or is it because they rose above it? See, when you say
03:00:05.560that, all of a sudden people want to say, no, no, it's a moderate Islam, but they won't do that
03:00:08.700with Nazism. They'll say, no, Nazism is what it is. It's a violent supremacist. I think the obvious
03:00:14.840problem with that analogy is that moderate Muslims will, who I speak to on this show,
03:00:20.140will rather than rising above Islam, they'll appeal to other scripture. And then they'll say,
03:00:25.200there's a contention here, there's a contradiction. So we're going to appeal to this
03:00:28.460and this one where it says, you know, they will do that. You're right. But what I'm saying is,
03:00:33.600Which is not, you can't do that with Nazism.
03:00:35.480You can't appeal to another side of Nazism.
03:00:37.920Well, no, I would argue what's happening is they're being disingenuous, okay?
03:00:42.060They're making an appeal saying, oh, no, there's a way around this.
03:00:46.000And I'm telling you, no, there isn't, okay?
03:00:48.240So, yeah, it would be like a Nazi telling you, no, no, wait, there's aspects of Nazism
03:00:52.760where it allows for this, and you and I know there isn't, you know?
03:00:56.680So give me an example of what they would say, for example.
03:00:58.820Unfortunately, I'm not equipped enough to have this argument.
03:01:01.720but I would say that there's enough contradiction within the Quran that it's clear that they would
03:01:08.400have a problem where there might not be the same contradictions in Nazism. It's pretty clear cut
03:01:13.200what they thought about the Jews. Okay, so if you're the kind of Muslim who is,
03:01:17.360I'm going to read the Quran and understand it my own way, and that's fine, then yeah,
03:01:20.760you can do that. But to be a true Sunni Muslim, that's not how it works. You have to follow the
03:01:25.620interpretation, the exegesis of the authorities, and all of them are unequivocal about the
03:01:31.700topics that we're discussing because they're so ironclad so again you know for example there's
03:01:36.020a movement among muslims and it's a good movement they're called quranists what they want to do is
03:01:40.900just the only book they look at is the quran and they're done with the seer and the sunnah
03:01:45.460the hadith and that would be great because honestly a lot of the most troubling teachings
03:01:49.620come from the hadith not so much the quran the quran is very poetic okay and so that would be
03:01:55.780a great thing but they're a tiny tiny minority they're not even one percent of the muslim
03:01:59.220population okay so you can do that and they do exist um muslims like that and that's more power
03:02:04.880to them but if you're being a standard i'm a sunni muslim who's just following the traditions of my
03:02:09.500fathers and i belong to one of the four medaib they have four schools of law which are very
03:02:13.960very similar they just have nuanced differences but they agree about what we're talking about
03:02:17.740when i execute the apostate or punish him at least blaspheming you know etc keeping christians
03:02:23.460and jews suppressed war on the infidel these are non-negotiables okay so if you're that kind of
03:02:28.600muslim yeah i mean i can say to the infidel no no there's there's a way around this but that would
03:02:34.240be like me telling someone who's ignorant of nazism and i'd be like no in nazism there's there's you
03:02:39.680know there's room for jews and you know and non-aryans to live in peace and okay you'll believe
03:02:45.880it but it's i'm just saying that you know they can say whatever they want and they can believe
03:02:50.780it and they there can be large numbers of muslims who live that way but they're not this is not in
03:02:55.200accordance with Islamic, mainstream Islam, just like a Nazi can say, no, no, I love non-Aryans,
03:03:02.720but yeah, that's not in accordance with Nazi ideology.
03:03:05.720Right. We mentioned right at the beginning of this conversation that we would look at
03:03:09.460your work on exposing the terrible treatment of Christians by Muslims around the world. Now,
03:03:15.360it's been an amazing long conversation so far, so I appreciate that I'm breaching a new topic,
03:03:22.060but perhaps we can touch on some of the most recent things, and then I'll put listeners to
03:03:27.340go to your reporting on your website. But maybe we'll just stick with 2025 and what's happening.
03:03:33.820We've had some reports from Congo, Nigeria, and even Syria, although it's very mixed reporting
03:03:39.260on Syria, and I'm not sure how true it is there. But I wondered if you could explain what's going
03:03:45.660on. So, you know, the persecution of Christians, and it really does tells
03:03:49.180wonderfully with what we're talking about because it's again it's part of the continuum uh the
03:03:53.020persecution of christians by muslims has always been there from the very beginning because most
03:03:57.140of muslim lands are in christian territory um and that's why so many of them ended up converting to
03:04:02.080islam and you have small minorities and that's why they disappeared in some areas so the copts for
03:04:06.680example used you know the word coptic for example just to give you an idea of how infused with
03:04:10.780christianity is you know the word egyptian that's the greek word which is egyptos and um when the
03:04:16.140Arab conquerors of Egypt came, they took the word for native Egyptian, Aegyptos, but they just took
03:04:20.680the middle syllable, gypt, and that became transliterated into copt for us. So it just
03:04:26.800means Egyptian, but it means Christian because all the Egyptians were Christians. So copt means
03:04:31.440Christian and Egyptian. Anyway, so they went from being the majority, almost 100%, to now they're
03:04:36.56010% because of 14 centuries of discrimination and, you know, sporadic persecution, which is
03:04:42.240well documented by the way anyone who's interesting can get a book called a sword a sword over the
03:04:47.600nile which is uh it's not my book but it's really great because it's based on the primary sources
03:04:51.780of what happened um to the christians of egypt anyway what's interesting is if you fast forward
03:04:57.900so okay during the attacks on christians of the middle east egypt syria everywhere it was again
03:05:03.360attacks on churches attacks on their persons of course extorting money from them as a form of
03:05:09.040jizya tribute enslaving their women and children etc that's still going on okay and it's in all
03:05:15.440um sorry so people in the chat i'm i'm just eating like a salmon poke bowl so it's just like
03:05:23.120salmon sashimi with like brown rice and and greens so there you go nothing nothing fancy
03:05:34.640all the islamic worlds to different degrees uh maybe you've heard of a group called open doors
03:05:40.760um okay so it's a humanitarian christian international organization which has been
03:05:44.820around for decades and every cent every year they publish a report it's called the world watch list
03:05:50.180and it ranks the 50 worst nations to be a christian where christians are most persecuted
03:05:54.760and i look i write about it every year and you know it habitually 37 38 of the 50 are muslim
03:06:00.500nations and i mean that to me is he went by you know what the the podcast guy went by way too
03:06:12.580quickly on that so why don't we look that up what was it world watch list
03:06:19.760hmm let's see here oh okay so raymond ibrahim was saying that um the vast majority of
03:06:37.440of countries where christians are persecuted um are muslim let's check that theory
03:06:47.680out because one thing that the jihadis and islamists like to say is that you know
03:06:56.920the religion of peace religion of peace you know supports everyone um and yet that's not the case
03:07:04.640at all so let's just let's let's let's fact check what raymond ibrahim was saying because i know a
03:07:13.040lot of people um who know nothing about this are going to be triggered because they're going to
03:07:18.000think that what he's saying is bigoted um or you know islamophobic but uh here we go okay so
03:07:24.660this is um world watch list 2025 um the world watch list is open doors annual ranking of the
03:07:34.28050 countries where christians face the most extreme persecution explore each country profile
03:07:40.860I'll download the detailed dossiers for in-depth information about following Jesus in the most
03:07:48.260dangerous places. You'll learn more about Christian persecution and discover how to
03:07:54.260stand with your brothers and sisters in prayer and actions. So as you can see, this is the map here.
03:08:02.660um the map is very very similar to what the map of um you know islamic conquest looks like right
03:08:13.200like you basically got the middle east um northern africa and of course you know some
03:08:19.820some communist countries communist muslim countries as well like china and oh look of
03:08:25.520course there is the Islamic Republic, um, of Iran, which is the number nine worst list. So why don't
03:08:32.840we, why don't we take out these countries? Okay. So here are, um, the worst countries. How does
03:08:40.280this, how does this show up on, wait, does this show up okay on the live stream? Let me, let me
03:08:46.420check my YouTube here and see how this shows up. Cause I just, I just maximized, um, my screen
03:08:52.800on the laptop, but I don't know if this is showing up properly on. Okay. No, it's, it's showing up.
03:09:02.120Okay. So you guys can see everything. All right. Okay. I just checked on my phone to make sure
03:09:05.960that you guys can see the live stream. So at number one is North Korea. North Korea is the
03:09:11.940worst for the persecution of Christians. Oh, look, number two is Somalia. Isn't that interesting?
03:09:18.180You know what, guys? At some point, I will be doing a live stream and possibly several videos about what is happening in the United States with, you know, all the Somalians who are defrauding American taxpayers.
03:09:35.300However, isn't it interesting here? Here's the interesting thing. Isn't it interesting? And I can't see your comments because I'm live screened on like, I'm widescreen on the this website here. So I'll check your comments after but isn't it interesting how Somalia is the top country, aside from North Korea, by the way, Somalia is the top country
03:10:05.300for the persecution of Christians. And yet all these Somalis are coming to America,
03:10:12.660which is basically a Christian country. And they've defrauded America out of what,
03:10:20.240like over $8 billion? I don't know. You know, something to think about, right? Okay. Yeah.
03:10:26.980yemen libya sudan eritrea nigeria yes of course because of the nigerian um genocide the muslim
03:10:37.140genocide of christians in nigeria something that i have uh spoken about on my live stream
03:10:44.340oh look pakistan yeah pakistan you have like the horror stories i hear from
03:10:51.060pakistani christians about about how they're treated um by
03:10:56.980by Muslim Pakistanis. It's horrific. Iran, 100%, of course, Iran is there because
03:11:04.260the Islamic dictatorship took over in 1979. They've been persecuting all of us, right? All of us
03:11:12.600since then, regardless of religion. Afghanistan, India, that's interesting. India, I didn't know
03:11:19.320that. India needs to do better. I did not know that. That's not good. Saudi Arabia, of course,
03:11:29.860Saudi Arabia, Myanmar, because it's a communist country. Mali, yep, Mali, China. Oh yeah,
03:11:36.900Maldives for sure. Yep, Iraq, Syria, Algeria, Burkina Faso, Morocco. There we go. Bangladesh,
03:11:45.100Mauritania, Uzbekistan, Cuba, right? So as you can see, guys, as you can see the countries that
03:11:51.580are persecuting, here, let me minimize this so I can actually see the comments now here, because I
03:11:57.900haven't been able to see any of the comments. So as you can see, the countries that persecute
03:12:04.140Christians are either Muslim countries or they are communist. So yeah, it's tough, right? And
03:12:21.080before anyone says, oh, like Goldie is, you know, like attacking all these countries. Listen,
03:12:28.140I call out Iran all the time. Like, literally, like, I call out Iran all the time. That is,
03:12:35.740you know, where I'm from. I should actually do a video on the effort that Iranians go to
03:12:49.480to call out Islamic terrorists and radicals from Iran. Like, you guys have no idea.
03:12:56.300Um, this didn't even make it into mainstream media, but just recently the Iranian community from around the world and even inside of occupied Iran, um, they banded together and they raised so much awareness about this Iranian woman who was a university professor at some, I can't remember what university it was, but she was a university professor there.
03:13:26.300i don't know i think she was like head of middle east studies or something like her name is like
03:13:29.900shirin i don't know something and iranians raised so much awareness about her because she was out
03:13:37.980there promoting the islamic republic she was putting out like anti-semitic nonsense and
03:13:45.420she was um you know attacking israel and attacking iranians fighting against the islam
03:13:51.260islamic republic and she was actually um um hired within like um some some university united states
03:14:01.260i can't remember now which one it was but iranians put so much effort into raising awareness about
03:14:06.780this that we just got the news a few days ago that she was actually fired from her university
03:14:14.460academia position because of the fact that she was promoting the Islamic Republic. So
03:14:22.980we Iranians, we are very, very good at self-regulating our community. And we will call
03:14:34.340out the Islamic extremists within our community. And a lot of you don't know this, but
03:14:44.180um, I have a lot of support from Iranians and occupied Iran, um, who either follow me on X
03:14:54.520or on YouTube or on Instagram. And, um, they are the silent majority who watch me, support me,
03:15:04.420share my videos. And you don't really hear from them because, you know, many of them,
03:15:12.080um they don't feel comfortable speaking in English or you know typing in English um so that's why
03:15:20.060sometimes like in in the YouTube live chat you'll see you know people typing in Farsi um but the
03:15:28.140reason that they follow me and support me is because even though they might not be comfortable
03:15:31.420speaking in English or typing in English um they understand like the vast majority of Iranians
03:15:36.900understand English, right? So even Iranians in occupied Iran. But they follow me, they support
03:15:43.340me. And that's because everything that I say, everything that I share with you, this isn't just
03:15:51.640my personal opinion. I'm pretty much sharing the views of the vast majority of Iranians. And I can
03:16:01.160tell you right now that we as a community we are very very good at self-regulating so um given the
03:16:10.480fact that I have been on the scene for like I don't know what over 10 years um every single
03:16:18.640Iranian has probably already done like a background check on me to see like you know whether or not
03:16:24.720I'm affiliated with the Islamic regime or any other like you know groups or or whatever and
03:16:29.520you know, of course I've passed because I'm not affiliated with any of them. Um, but all that to
03:16:34.520say, if for, for all of you, you know, everyone who's not Iranian, I can tell you right now that
03:16:44.360if anything that I was saying about Iran or Islamic terrorism or what Iranians think, um,
03:16:52.360was untrue, you guys would know about it because I would have been canceled by now.
03:16:58.940So, um, that's why we Iranians are very, very good at self-regulating, but you guys, you,
03:17:08.020you don't hear about it because it never makes it into the mainstream media. Um, but yeah,
03:17:14.420like I'm, I'm happy to, um, I'll make a video about that universe, that American university
03:17:21.220professor who was, you know, Iranian and she was, she was basically a terrorist. Right.
03:20:00.380Yes, they do that. Actually. Yeah. And they don't tell you that the ones being pushed out are all
03:20:05.960muslims and the ones being killed are all christians okay no they actually do that so what
03:20:11.040what's happening then in nigeria uh you have muslim groups first you had the terrorist group
03:20:15.780called boko haram which means western education is a sin and all they've been doing is a
03:20:21.360boko haram yeah haram is sin so haram haram um boko haram is also funded by the muslim
03:20:31.300brotherhood remember the muslim brotherhood is um a terrorist organization that has been banned in
03:20:39.620several middle eastern countries and now more recently um has been banned in florida and texas
03:20:47.200attacking and killing christians but now you have what's called the fulani their herdsmen okay who
03:20:52.860live in in the cattle they graze their cattle and they're attacking the christians who are sedentary
03:20:58.800okay and they're just butchering and killing them and taking over their land and of course
03:21:03.900also engaging in destroying their churches and other the hallmarks of attacks on christianity
03:21:09.160that emphasize that there's an ideological component but if you talk to the professionals
03:21:14.600and the media it has nothing to do with religion it literally it's climate change because the
03:21:19.340pastoral fulani are being pushed out and they are just they need more land so they attack these but
03:21:25.600for some reason they only attack christians uh never muslim sedentary areas yeah and what how
03:21:31.780exactly does climate change force them to kill exactly where's the motivation no no a lot of i
03:21:38.560remember the i think it was the irish president who came out and made a big scene about no this
03:21:42.720is climate change don't talk about islam wait so um someone said i'm just like the fbi um no i'm
03:21:52.380not like the fbi i'm actually more like um massad so yeah just just yeah i'm more like massad um
03:22:02.920it's islam means peace and this was like a year ago and uh it's like mostly peaceful climate change
03:22:08.620yeah and then the next day you know muslims attack a church in nigeria and kill like 50 people and
03:22:13.560and all of a sudden that too is not about religion um i mean they i've really followed this and the
03:22:19.360the little the acrobatics they play to just make you think this isn't about religion are amazing
03:22:24.480even though it's so obvious about i once quoted a nun a black nun from nigeria who's like you know
03:22:30.160it's it's hard for us not to believe this is about religion when they're dressed in black screaming
03:22:33.760allah akbar and break the cross you know and you told me it's about climate change so so he makes
03:22:40.240a very good point and if you go back and if you look at my live streams where i speak about the
03:22:46.160Nigerian genocide, you know, the Muslim genocide of Christians in Nigeria.
03:22:51.760That's exactly what I say. I also mentioned the same thing in Sudan. I'm like,
03:22:58.880like, exactly what he said. No, like, normal person, like, okay, so let's start, let me rephrase
03:23:06.800this. If the issue was about climate change, right, climate change, why are Muslims going
03:23:16.520around yelling Allahu Akbar while they are murdering Christians, right? Like, how is that
03:23:24.520anything to do with climate change? It's literally jihad. That's been the pattern of jihad for 1400
03:23:30.600years um and yet they want to try and gaslight nigerians and the rest of the world into thinking
03:23:40.580that um this is about climate change like it's just it's nonsense it's insane and this is i mean
03:23:49.160this is a kind of gaslighting um that we have to deal with that's nigeria but in sub-saharan
03:23:56.420in nigeria do you have a sense of the death talk um i've seen various reports and it apparently
03:24:02.180got really really bad starting around 2009 um and it's been going on and off but i would say
03:24:08.100you know maybe 70 000 yeah just butchered and what has the christian response been to that
03:24:16.180the nigerian christian or nigerian or oh wait someone said um aloha akbar means
03:24:22.580god is greater than jesus and moses if you don't know that you're probably non-arab um i am 100
03:24:30.980percent non-arab um i'm iranian and uh yeah aloha akbar means allah is great it doesn't mean it
03:24:38.500doesn't mean god is great because god um that's a different word in arabic that's ilah um allah
03:24:46.980Allah is the name of the Muslim god so when they say Allah Akbar what they're saying is Allah is
03:24:55.340greater than all the other gods the greater Christian the greater Christian response is
03:25:01.720it's not happening you know and there's nothing to see here you know black lives apparently only
03:25:05.940matter if they're not Christian you know it's it's really it's it's one of those things where
03:25:12.340if it was the opposite if this was let's say Muslims being killed by Christians this would
03:25:16.100be on the news nonstop. Everyone would know about it, you know, but such as it is. And again,
03:25:23.380why do you think that the Christians don't care about this?
03:25:26.340I mean, I think to a great degree, a lot of them don't know. So they're basically just
03:25:30.580misled by the media that they trust. You know, Fox News isn't going to talk about this either,
03:25:35.460right? So for whatever reason, this isn't a topic for them.
03:25:38.260But I'd have hoped to let the Church of England or the leaders of the churches
03:25:41.700who do know about it, they absolutely know about it, would be every single day,
03:25:45.140But you know also a lot of these churches don't want to antagonize Muslims, and they're more excited and more proud about holding hands with a Muslim imam and showing their wonderful ecumenicism reach out.
03:25:58.860So a lot of them don't want to—Pope Francis, you know, he writes encyclicals about this and that.
03:26:04.300How about Christians being butchered left and right, you know?
03:36:32.980Really do appreciate that, and welcome.
03:36:35.820Guys, we're going to have a lot of fun.
03:36:37.260like i'm i'm just kind of getting warmed up i'm just getting started but uh there's gonna be a
03:36:42.660lot more um members only perks as as um the channel grows and i kind of you know get into
03:36:50.280get into my groove and everything right um about everything we've discussed any important
03:36:57.000ingredients you think i might have skimmed over too quickly no i just you know to you know to
03:37:01.520cap it off is just really to emphasize that there's such a you know a gap in people's knowledge
03:37:06.480and it's by design you know this isn't just ignorance because whatever it's been for decades
03:37:11.600building up where information like i said fake history which is more potent in many ways in fake
03:37:16.760news um has been like accelerating and so people really need to um educate themselves and don't
03:37:23.080look to the professionals because you know they're not going to do it because a lot of them and a lot
03:37:27.200of them maybe even agree with me but they have a career and they don't want to lose their job you
03:37:30.380know what I mean so a lot of that so I think you just okay Bob you're terrible Goldie's Mossad
03:37:36.620come on guys we have to at least like have some sort of semblance of like pretending right like
03:37:43.500we we can't give away all of our Mossad secrets we can't make it um too too obvious that we're
03:37:51.220Mossad so I don't know about that but I mean it is a good suggestion have to independently educate
03:37:58.100yourself about the truth, about the history and about the doctrine of Islam. And, uh, if you do
03:38:03.560that, you know, it'll all fall into play and I'm not trying to promote anger or hatred. My thing
03:38:08.460is I believe the more we have truth, the more we could act on it and the better, but if truth is
03:38:12.840suppressed, then there's no remedy because you can't fix something until you acknowledge the
03:38:17.060issue. Yeah. You know, and if you just let it fester and boil and simmer over, well, that's
03:38:21.440just even worse. So the number one thing I would just tell people to objectively educate themselves
03:38:26.440on these topics and I think everything else will fall into place yeah you've mentioned a couple of
03:38:31.160your books are there any others that you want listeners and viewers to know about and where
03:38:37.840can they find you online your social media and website and so my website is basically my name
03:38:43.740raymondibrahim.com and there you'll get all my articles my videos I make YouTube videos too you
03:38:49.780can see me there and I have social media links to the ones even though most of them I'm shadow
03:38:54.280banned on, because nobody sees anything that I post, they tell me. But the books, I would say,
03:38:59.940if you want to do what I just said, educate yourself. The number one book that I wrote
03:39:03.880would be Sword and Scimitar, 14 Centuries of War Between Islam, because I give the bare-bone
03:39:08.380theology and doctrine that you need to understand about Islam without going into every detail.
03:39:13.400And then I give the history that we just discussed, and I really document it. And I go all the way up
03:39:18.060until the present and show the parallels. So I would, you know, that would be the book that I
03:39:23.080would uh primarily suggest for anyone yeah um raymond i would like to say it was a pleasure
03:39:27.940speaking of you but frankly it's a jarring it's been it's been hard uh brutal uh history and
03:39:34.760particularly what's going on that was kind of rude like did i misinterpret that or was that
03:39:42.520like just british rudeness because he's like i wish i could say it was nice speaking to you but
03:39:48.340that was uncomfortable. I don't know. Did I misinterpret that? Or like, I felt that was
03:39:54.600very, very rude. Okay. I don't know. I didn't, I didn't like that. He should have said it's a
03:40:05.360pleasure. I mean, just because, just because you have a conversation that is difficult for you to
03:40:11.080have because, you know, you want to be politically correct and someone's taking you out of your
03:40:18.400comfort zone. Um, doesn't mean that you should say it wasn't a pleasure speaking to you. I don't
03:40:24.240know. Was, was he being sarcastic? All right, let's go back. Let's go back and listen to this
03:40:29.000again. Cause I don't want to judge. Um, so let's, geez, I'm like right at the end too. Okay. So
03:40:35.120I'll go back a little bit. I don't know. You guys tell, am I reading too much into this? Cause I,
03:40:39.780i thought that was rude maybe i'm just not understanding like the british commentary here
03:40:45.480because um you know i'm canadian but let's see okay one thing i would just tell people to
03:40:51.800objectively educate themselves on these topics and i think everything else will fall into place
03:40:56.760yeah you've mentioned a couple of your books are there any others that you want listeners and
03:41:02.360viewers to know about and where can they find you online your social media and website and so my
03:41:09.460website is basically my name okay all all the brits are telling me that it's humor okay i will
03:41:15.700accept that i will accept british humor because honestly like i don't even understand half of
03:41:22.100british humor the only british humor that i really understand is monty python and mr bean and that's
03:41:28.500it um like i've seen british sitcoms where apparently something funny is said and then
03:41:35.820everyone's you know like you hear like this the the laugh track in the background and i'm just like
03:41:40.480sitting there and i'm like i have no idea what happened right now i don't understand why this
03:41:44.400is funny so i will take your word on that that he was meant to be sarcastic in raymondibrahim.com
03:41:52.380and there you'll get all my articles my videos i make youtube videos too you can see me there and
03:41:58.180i have social media links to the ones even though most of them i'm shadow banned on because nobody
03:42:02.960sees anything that I post, they tell me. But the books, I would say, if you want to do what I just
03:42:08.100said, educate yourself. The number one book that I wrote would be Sword and Scimitar, 14 Centuries
03:42:13.020of War Between Islam, because I give the bare bones theology and doctrine that you need to
03:42:17.720understand about Islam without going into every detail. And then I give the history that we just
03:42:22.200discussed, and I really document it. And I go all the way up until the present and show the parallels.
03:42:27.900So I would, you know, that would be the book that I would primarily suggest for anyone.
03:42:31.800Yeah. Raymond, I would like to say it was a pleasure speaking with you, but frankly, it's been hard, brutal history. And particularly what's going on right now is really effective.
