00:15:57.400When he says Iran, he means the Islamic Republic occupying Iran.
00:16:01.620And groups secreting themselves into the Internet, social media like TikTok, Qatar, the greatest funder and supporter of terrorism and anti-Semitic propaganda on the planet, funding Western colleges and universities, our colleges and universities, with tens of billions of dollars, targeting our K-12 students, buying off corporate CEOs, buying off politicians and law firms.
00:16:32.240media podcasters, NGOs, the entertainment industry,
00:16:36.940sports leagues and platforms with hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:16:43.220Lenin never said this, but he is said to have said that
00:16:46.280we will hang the West and the capitalists,
00:16:50.900we will sell them the rope by which they do it.
00:34:18.700okay my connection glitched for a moment but hopefully i am back um so
00:34:30.020that was what Mark Levin was putting out today. So let's now go to today's documentary.
00:34:41.260So it's a speech by Robert Spencer. Now, who is Robert Spencer? He's the director of Jihad Watch
00:34:49.700and a Shilman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. He's the author of 32 books,
00:34:55.280including the New York Times bestsellers The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam in the
00:35:01.080Crusades and The Truth About Muhammad and the bestsellers The History of Jihad from Muhammad
00:35:06.620to ISIS and The Critical Quran. His newest books are Intifada on the Hudson, The Selling of Zohran
00:35:15.140Mamdani and Holy Hell, Islam's Abuse of Women and the Infidels Who Enable It. Coming in April
00:35:22.7802026 is The Tragedy of Islam, Failure, and Excuses. Spencer has led seminars on Islam and
00:35:31.940Jihad for the FBI, the United States Central Command, the U.S. Army Command and General Staff
00:35:37.600College, the U.S. Army's Asymmetric Warfare Group, the Joint Terrorism Task Force, the Justice
00:35:43.720Department's Anti-Terrorism Advisory Council, and the U.S. Intelligence Committee. He has
00:35:48.960discussed jihad, Islam, and terrorism at a workshop sponsored by the U.S. State Department
00:35:54.340and the German Foreign Ministry. He is a senior fellow with the Center for Security Policy and
00:36:00.380the Institute for the American Future. The talk that I'm going to be sharing by him today,
00:36:07.200it's from 15 years ago. So this was posted November 23, 2015, and it's called The Theological
00:36:17.940aspects of Islam that lead to jihad. And so I figured this would be a very good documentary
00:36:26.080to watch today. I haven't seen it myself, but I'm certainly looking forward to it. And the reason
00:36:34.060that I picked this particular documentary is because this past weekend, we have seen one
00:36:40.180incident of jihad after another, you know, with, of course, the most horrific one being the mass
00:36:49.120shooting by Islamic terrorists at Bondi Beach in Australia. Of course, in France, you're seeing
00:36:57.680Paris having to shut down Christmas and New Year's events due to fears of violence from Muslim
00:37:06.780migrants. We've seen targeted killings of Americans in Syria by Islamic terrorists in
00:37:15.400Syria. And of course, just before I went live on this podcast, I got news that the FBI
00:37:23.720just foiled a terror plot that was planned for New Year's Eve by an extreme pro-Palestine group.
00:37:35.740So I think I think it's pretty pertinent. And this will hopefully give all of you a little bit more understanding into what jihad is and why the top 100 terrorist groups in the world are all Islamic terrorist groups.
00:37:59.680Thank you very much. As Dr. Weicker said, I am here to speak about the theological foundations
00:38:10.260of jihad. And this is, of course, a very important point to start with because it's one of the most
00:38:15.420controverted. One of the things that you will very frequently hear the President of the United
00:38:19.920States say is that the Islamic State, or ISIS, a group that self-consciously refers to itself
00:38:27.100as islamic and tries to make recruits among muslims on the basis of its islamic authenticity
00:38:33.020actually has nothing to do with islam and it's not i also want to point out that um that uh
00:38:39.980the pakistani muslim terrorist um who was mass murdering um jewish people in australia
00:38:49.260he was known to authorities they knew that he had links to isis um the islamic state
00:38:58.620the authorities knew that and yet they did nothing about it because they didn't think that
00:39:06.480he was a legitimate threat so just want to point that out if you think all these
00:39:12.000islamic terrorist groups only operate in the middle east um nope they have
00:39:18.120thousands if not hundreds of thousands of sleeper cells all across western and european countries
00:39:27.400just obama who says this but the secretary of state the vice president i'm gonna go back and
00:39:32.480start from the beginning thank you very much as dr. Weicker said I am here to
00:39:43.300speak about the theological foundations of jihad and this is of course a very
00:39:47.320important point to start with because it's one of the most controverted one
00:39:51.560of the things that you will very frequently hear the president of the
00:39:54.620United States say is that the Islamic State or Isis a group that self
00:39:59.940consciously refers to itself as Islamic and tries to make recruits among Muslims on the
00:40:05.980basis of its Islamic authenticity actually has nothing to do with Islam. And it's not
00:40:10.360just Obama who says this, but the Secretary of State, the Vice President, the Prime Minister
00:40:14.180of Great Britain, the Prime Minister of France, many, many, pretty much every authority in
00:40:19.540the Western world agrees that what we see in jihad terror groups has nothing actually
00:40:57.280Are we to believe the Western leaders and the intelligentsia that these terror groups actually have nothing to do with the actual religion?
00:41:05.040Or are we to believe the terror groups themselves who say that they have everything to do with the actual religion?
00:41:11.860In the first place, before I answer the question, we have to understand why the question is important.
00:41:17.120And it's important because it's an adage as old as warfare.
00:41:19.940If you don't understand your enemy, you cannot defeat it.
00:41:22.820and if the administration and the Western leader the leaders of Western
00:41:29.060Europe are misdiagnosing this problem if they are not rightly understanding the
00:41:35.960threat that they face then they will not implement the proper solutions to defeat
00:41:40.160the threat and so we have to evaluate this question we have to understand and
00:41:45.340discover whether the Islamic State is Islamic because there is a multitude of
00:41:50.840of policy differences that will result from that for example right now there's a huge disagreement
00:41:57.400between barack obama and vladimir putin of russia over how to fight the islamic state
00:42:03.400and the disagreement centers upon bashar al-assad the dictator of syria obama says
00:42:10.680we have to remove assad and that will topple the islamic state putin says if you topple assad
00:42:17.640the Islamic State will be the chief beneficiary and will only grow stronger and more emboldened
00:42:25.160whether or not whoever is right in that it has to be understood that Barack Obama's position
00:42:30.520comes from his core assumption that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam because if it
00:42:35.240has nothing to do with Islam then he can discount all of its statements about its global ambitions
00:42:41.320and its claim to be the caliphate the sole legitimate government for Muslims worldwide
00:42:46.280he can just sweep all that aside and say what they really are is a resistance movement against
00:42:51.080Assad and so if you take out Assad then they'll melt away but if they're serious and if they
00:42:58.360really are authentically appealing to Muslims on the basis of Islamic principles such that
00:43:05.080their global vision really does have a foundation in Islam then Obama's wrong and if you take out
00:43:11.000Assad the Islamic State will not melt away but will be emboldened and so you
00:43:15.260see it's important question as to whether the Islamic State and other
00:43:19.460jihad groups are Islamic or not and policy decisions flow from that question
00:43:24.140the only way to answer the question is to look at Islam and the core text of
00:43:28.500Islam is of course the Quran and so I thought tonight we would have a little
00:43:32.900bit of Quran study like you have Bible study tonight we'll go through the
00:43:37.040So if you would open your Korans first off to chapter 5, verse 46, what you find is a very conciliatory passage, actually, a passage that seems to hold out the hope of some ultimate reconciliation between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
00:43:58.760And it says, we sent Jesus, we being God.
00:44:03.280In the Quran, Allah, the supreme God, speaks always of himself in the first person plural.
00:44:10.240But this is not to imply a trinity or anything of the kind.
00:55:13.620to talk about the theological foundations of jihad,
00:55:16.120and now I've been going for 15 minutes
00:55:17.940all about Islam's critique of Christianity.
00:55:20.940And you might think that I'm off topic.
00:55:22.740um so someone in the chat was asking uh about this uh documentary um i so for everyone who's
00:55:30.980just joined uh this is a this is a talk by robert spencer from november of 2015 it's called the
00:55:39.140theological uh the theological aspects of islam that lead to jihad and um i figured in light of
00:55:48.100all of the terrorist attacks that have happened um in the last few days and you know even just
00:55:52.980the fbi just a few hours ago announcing that they foiled another islamic terrorist plot in
00:55:58.660the united states a lot of people have questions about why there is this sudden rise in jihad and
00:56:07.380islamic extremism so uh this speech um should give a pretty good explanation of that i've played
00:56:15.700some of robert spencer's um documentaries in my previous live streams and i actually do have
00:56:22.980another one lined up right after this as well so uh he's just explaining right now um you know
00:56:30.340why he was providing some criticisms of christianity i'm assuming that's going to lead
00:56:35.460into the main topic which is jihad so let's just you know um follow along and see what he has to
00:56:42.900And it's an insult to God to say that. Well, how do you make all that hang together? The Christians have to be lying. They are renegades from the truth, and so are the Jews. And they know it.
00:56:54.600chapter nine sorry someone said a few days more like since the seventh century yeah no of course
00:57:02.620i mean jihad has been going on for the last 1400 years you know i'm very very well aware of that as
00:57:09.160an iranian um and you know the history of my peoples having been you know victims of islamic
00:57:17.000jihad as well both um in the past and also more presently but i was referring more to just the
00:57:23.940events of this last weekend and the horrific mass shooting, you know, the Islamic terror attack that
00:57:31.740happened at Bondi Beach. Verse 30 of the Quran says the Jews say Ezra is the son of God, which
00:57:38.180no Jew has ever said, but the Quran says it, so it must be true. And the Christians say Jesus is
00:57:43.600the son of God, which we do say. Allah's curse be upon them and how deluded they are. And so the
00:57:52.580Quran is saying that if you are an orthodox Christian believer, you are under the curse
00:59:48.340I was actually just looking at an episode.
00:59:53.920I don't know if it was Robert Spencer was hosting it or if it was David Wood, but they were speaking together about jihad.
01:00:01.020And so I will I will make a note of that here to include Apostate Prophet and David Wood to the list of people who speak about jihad that that we should watch.
01:00:15.700Thank you for the suggestions, and thank you for supporting my channel.
01:01:34.540make war on them Allah will punish them by your hands and will humiliate them
01:01:43.420Allah will punish them by your hands and humiliate them he will grant you
01:01:48.640victory over them and will soothe the bosoms of those who believe and remove
01:01:53.500rage from their hearts so if you are an angry depressed Muslim then Allah will
01:01:59.680soothe your heart if you fight against unbelievers and he will punish them by your hand
01:02:08.400it's also why um all these uh islamic terrorists and jihadis
01:02:13.920yell aloha akbar while they are murdering infidels because they've literally been told and they
01:02:22.080believe that murdering the infidels is their Allah-given responsibility, because that's what
01:02:31.280it says in the Quran. The Quran also contains, and this is the most perhaps momentous passage
01:02:41.140of all the ones that I've quoted so far, fight against those who do not believe in Allah and
01:02:47.280the last day do not obey Allah in the last day and do not forbid what he is
01:02:54.120forbidden even if they are of the people of the book remember that's the Jews and
01:02:58.140the Christians primarily until they pay the jizya with willing submission and
01:03:02.840feel themselves subdued jizya is a tax that's what the word means tax and it is
01:03:08.900a tax that the Muslims don't have to pay but non-Muslims under the rule of
01:03:13.500Islamic law have to pay and so if you pay you the Muslims are told in this
01:03:19.920verse that's chapter 9 verse 29 you fight against those who do not obey a
01:03:26.340law in his messenger and do not forbid what he is forbidden even if they are of
01:03:30.820the people of the book and the reason for the fighting is so that you get them
01:03:35.640to pay the jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued now this has
01:03:41.580been the the the font the source of an elaborate system of laws that are part
01:03:48.660of Sharia Islamic law which mandates the second-class status of Christians as
01:03:53.820well as Jews and others under Islamic law where in which they are denied basic
01:03:58.920rights they have to pay this tax that the Muslims don't have to pay they
01:04:03.000cannot build new churches or repair old ones so their communities are
01:04:06.420perpetually in a state of decline they cannot hold authority over Muslims so
01:04:13.740there you can't be the boss even in your little shop you can't you can't hold any
01:04:18.300authority over a Muslim you're relegated to the most menial jobs in society
01:04:22.380where you're not anybody's boss Muslim men can marry non-Muslim women but
01:04:28.320Muslim women are forbidden to marry non-Muslim men and you understand in a
01:04:33.260society in which it's understood that a wife will become part of the husband's
01:04:37.340household that too is a supremacist law that ensures that the Christian
01:04:42.620community will always be in decline at the expense of the most at the Christian
01:04:47.260community will always be diminished and the Muslim community will always be
01:04:50.600increasing and all this is because the Christians have dared to tamper with the
01:04:59.640words of their scriptures and twisted and hijacked the message of the Muslim
01:05:04.300Prophet Jesus to create Christianity a false and renegade hollow religion that
01:05:11.280has no force or power but because the Muslims are the executors of God's wrath
01:05:17.100in this world they have the responsibility the responsibility not
01:05:23.820just they're exhorted to or encouraged to but they have the responsibility
01:05:27.880before allah to be the executors of his wrath and to punish the christians so guys i just wanted to
01:05:36.040um ask you all a big favor um if you're liking and enjoying the live stream please don't forget
01:05:42.120to um like uh like the live stream there's about 750 of you in here right now um on on youtube but
01:05:50.840you know, only 177 likes. So the likes, you know, go a long way to helping. And of course,
01:05:58.900if you're enjoying the live stream, don't forget to subscribe to my channel as well. All right.
01:06:04.160Thank you, everyone. And I appreciate all the support. And I am reading your comments as I'm
01:06:10.280watching and listening to the documentary. Usually I have more to say, but Robert Spencer,
01:06:17.240I mean, he's just, he's so good that, you know, this is a learning, I mean, not really learning, it's more just like refreshing my memory experience for me. But I think for many of you, this might be new. And yeah, so pay attention, because what he's talking about is directly linked to all of this Islamic terrorism and jihad that we are seeing in Western society.
01:06:46.120And if you've ever wondered why Islamic terrorists yell Allah Akbar when they're murdering infidels, this is why.
01:06:55.920To allow Allah to punish the Christians through them.
01:07:01.000This is the foundation of modern day jihad.
01:07:05.140It is ultimately and fundamentally a theological war.
01:07:09.020Now, this issue is extraordinarily clouded over, fogged over, and complicated for numerous
01:07:18.920reasons, but one of the main ones is that whenever Muslim authorities today, and even
01:07:26.420terrorist leaders, are asked why they are fighting, they always list a long list of
01:07:32.340grievances, and this has the power of clouding Western leaders' minds, and it makes them
01:07:37.940think oh if we just redress these grievances everything will be okay so
01:07:41.660for example Osama bin Laden wrote about 9-11 and why the Muslims took down the
01:07:46.580twin towers and attacked the Pentagon on 9-11 and he said well it's because you
01:07:51.620had troops in Saudi Arabia the sacred site of the two holy places of Mecca and
01:07:56.900Medina and you support Israel and you've done all these other atrocities and so
01:08:02.840all these people think Western leaders think that if we throw Israel under the
01:08:07.760us if we get out of their lands. Sorry, I'm not laughing at what Robert Spencer is saying.
01:08:16.480I'm just, this comment made me laugh. Rambam 3000, I say we bring back Cyrus the Great to
01:08:22.720sort things out. So interestingly enough, so okay, so first of all, for those of you who
01:08:29.120might not know Cyrus the Great, he is the founder of the Persian Empire, probably the
01:08:35.020most famous Iranian in the history of our civilization. Of course, we Iranians love
01:08:42.720him so much. He is the founder. But it's interesting is that, you know, we kind of
01:08:47.140do have a modern day Cyrus, His Royal Highness Reza Shah II, the Shah of Iran. He's currently
01:08:55.400in exile. Many, many Iranians view him as sort of the modern day Cyrus the Great. And
01:09:06.300we all support him very much because we know that he is the only one who can free our country
01:09:15.700from the terrorist Islamic dictatorship that has been occupying Iran for the last 47 years.
01:09:23.940And he's the only one that we trust to lead the transition from a brutal Islamic dictatorship to a modern functioning democracy.
01:09:38.280And Iranians will determine at the back. So once Iran is free, Iranians themselves will determine at the ballot box what type of democratic system they want to have, whether they want to have a constitutional monarchy like what Iran was prior to 1979 or whether they want to have a republic.
01:10:03.300Now, I can tell you that the vast majority of Iranians, we want, including myself, we want to go back to a constitutional monarchy.
01:10:14.280There is no Iran without kings, kings, kingdoms.
01:10:19.060The whole concept of a monarch is part and parcel of Iranian identity and Iranian history.
01:10:27.700The word shah, which means king, it's found in so many different words, different places, and of course the shahname as well.
01:10:40.060Like our greatest literary work written by poet Ferdosi, it's called the shahname, which means the book of kings.
01:10:49.440So, yeah, but so that's why I was smiling a little bit at your comment. We do have a modern Cyrus the Great, and he has a lot of support. And I'm very, very hopeful about the future of Iran. So thank you very much for the comment. And thank you for the support.
01:11:07.140and so on that the jihad will go away but they have failed to take into account
01:11:15.300the fundamental theological reasoning behind this and a further complication comes from the fact
01:11:21.420that in islamic theology only the caliph the successor of muhammad as the leader of all the
01:11:27.560muslims is authorized to wage what is known as offensive jihad and he actually has the
01:11:31.720responsibility to declare jihad against non-muslim states on regular occasions but unless you believe
01:11:37.940the islamic state's claims isis's claims there's been no caliph since 1924 when the secular turkish
01:11:46.380government abolished the caliphate so what you have in the world now is all defensive jihad
01:11:52.320because nobody needs to declare defensive jihad all you have to do is see that a muslim land is
01:11:58.200attacked and then you have the responsibility to fight. But that means that all the jihads in the
01:12:02.760world today have to be justified as defensive, hence the list of grievances. But what if all
01:12:08.400those grievances were swept away? What if Israel were to disappear and the United States were to
01:12:13.300withdraw entirely from the Islamic world? Would the jihad go away? It would not. And it would not
01:12:19.380because of, if you think about that verse again, chapter 9, verse 29, fight against those who do
01:12:26.160not obey Allah and his messenger and do not forbid what he is forbidden even if
01:12:30.900they are of the people of the book until they pay the jizya with willing
01:12:34.440submission and feel themselves subdued now think about that for a second it
01:12:37.980doesn't say even if they're of the people of the book whose foreign policy
01:12:41.480you deplore or even if they are of the people of the book who have offended you
01:12:45.880by building the founding a new nation on land that you believe to be yours or
01:12:52.440even if they are of the people of the book whose immorality disgusts you and
01:12:57.600makes you believe that they are the spawn of Satan themselves it's just even if
01:13:03.960they are of the people of the book full stop even if the Christians and the Jews
01:13:08.220are polite virtuous just magnanimous and kind to the Muslims they still have this
01:13:16.060imperative to fight against them and subjugate them and this has been so
01:13:21.120throughout the history of Islam in the beginning of the religion of Islam which
01:13:31.380is attributed to of course Muhammad and the revelations he supposedly received
01:13:36.420between the year 610 and 632 right after he died you have this extraordinary
01:13:41.820explosion of conquest and the immediate and rapid conquest and subjugation of
01:13:50.220what had been up to that point over half of the Christian world stretching from
01:13:55.560all across North Africa the land of Augustine of Hippo and so many others in
01:14:01.080North Africa Cyprian of Carthage and so on all through the Middle East and into
01:14:06.180Persia and even into India now according to the standard Islamic tradition
01:14:12.120canonical Islamic tradition in the Hadith and thereafter this is all because of
01:14:17.100of the imperatives to fight within the Quran
01:14:21.460and within the Hadith, the traditions of Muhammad.
01:14:24.700Some of the Hadith there, Muhammad says,
01:14:26.660I have been commanded to fight against people
01:14:29.780until they confess that there is no God but Allah
01:19:58.660and Sunnis are 85 to 90% of Muslims worldwide.
01:20:02.720In Sunni theology, Khalifa is successor,
01:20:05.960and the caliph is the successor of Muhammad
01:20:09.040as the military, political, and spiritual leader of the Muslims.
01:20:12.340There was always a caliph from the 7th century,
01:20:14.860from the death of Muhammad up through various dynasties that were caliphates,
01:20:19.940the Umayyads, the Abbasids, and finally the Ottomans,
01:20:23.520until the caliphate was abolished in 1924.
01:20:29.180I also mentioned before that only the caliph is authorized to wage offensive jihad.
01:20:34.920And so the caliphate is the sole legitimate government for Muslims,
01:20:38.200the symbol and the source of their unity that transcends all nationality
01:20:43.060and all ethnicity and any other allegiance is gone it's as if somebody
01:20:48.280had gone to Rome and deposed the Pope and said there'll be no more papacy and
01:20:52.720this was catastrophic in the Islamic world you can imagine how traumatic it
01:20:56.920would be were that to happen in the Catholic Church and this is what
01:21:01.240happened in Islam in 1924 immediately there were groups formed in 1928 there
01:21:07.480was a group founded in Egypt called the Muslim Brotherhood that you may have
01:21:10.180heard of it's still very much around and the muslim for those of you who've seen my other live
01:21:17.300streams uh bridget gabriel talks about the muslim brotherhood i'm also um looking to find a good
01:21:24.420documentary to talk about and explain the muslim brotherhood in detail although you know bridget
01:21:32.820gabriel does have those short video clips where she has spoken about the muslim brotherhood
01:21:37.940and for um for our american friends who follow along with politics in the news which i'm assuming
01:21:44.420you do because you're you know here on this live stream um if the muslim brotherhood sounds
01:21:49.780familiar that's because just recently um last week the muslim brotherhood and care the council
01:21:56.260on american islamic relations were designated as forced uh foreign terrorist organizations
01:22:01.860in Florida. And last month, they were designated as foreign terrorist organizations in Texas. And
01:22:10.540my understanding is that now the United States is looking to completely ban the Muslim Brotherhood
01:22:18.020and possibly care and list them as terrorist organizations. And just as an FYI, countries like
01:22:26.880Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, Bahrain, and Jordan have all listed the Muslim Brotherhood
01:22:33.820as a terrorist organization. So that's what Robert Spencer is referring to here back in 2015
01:22:41.740when he's talking about the Muslim Brotherhood.
01:22:45.680Brotherhood was founded in order to restore the caliphate because it was not considered legitimate
01:22:51.420for... Let me go back a little bit because I cut into what he was saying, but did you catch that?
01:22:55.940So he's basically saying that the Muslim Brotherhood was founded in 1928, pretty much like just, you know, a few years after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, because the Ottoman Empire was considered to be an Islamic caliphate.
01:23:10.060Once the Ottoman Empire fell, the Muslim Brotherhood was then created in 1928 in order to work towards rebuilding and recreating another Islamic caliphate that would replace the fallen Ottoman Empire.
01:23:27.480The symbol and the source of their unity that transcends all nationality and all ethnicity and any other allegiance is gone.
01:23:37.080It's as if somebody had gone to Rome and deposed the Pope and said there'll be no more papacy.
01:23:42.860And this was catastrophic in the Islamic world.
01:23:45.400You can imagine how traumatic it would be were that to happen in the Catholic Church.
01:23:50.140And this is what happened in Islam in 1924.
01:29:12.540the Sunnis coalesce into a fighting force that opposes Assad who's propped up by Shiite Iran
01:29:20.060and the Sunnis and the Shiites as you may expect hate each other and against the regime in Baghdad
01:29:24.940that we left behind that was also Shiite and that's that's just the one thing that um I sort
01:29:32.140of disagree with Robert Spenster on when he talks about how the Sunnis and the Shia you know hate
01:29:37.000each other. I mean, ultimately, when it comes to jihad and the infidels, Sunnis and Shias will
01:29:47.160always unite, right? I mean, the Islamic Republic occupying Iran is Shia, but they are fully
01:29:55.280supportive of and they fund Hamas, which is Sunni. And Hamas is the Palestinian branch of the Muslim
01:30:05.540Brotherhood. So, I mean, talking about how these groups hate each other, I mean, yeah, of course,
01:30:12.700like, when they're not fighting infidels, they're fighting amongst themselves. Like, that's just
01:30:18.320what, you know, they've been doing for the last 1400 years. But when it comes to analyzing jihad,
01:30:26.360there really is no difference, right? Like, it's, you know, potato versus potato, basically,
01:30:33.680Because when it comes to jihad, when it comes to, you know, Israel, when it comes to fighting the West, all of these Islamic terrorist groups will unite regardless of which denomination of Islam they are from, because they're all united in their hatred of the non-Muslims and infidels.
01:30:56.760so I mean talking about talking about this distinction between Sunni and Shia and how
01:31:03.780they hate each other within the context of Islamic Jihad it doesn't really make much sense like it's
01:31:10.100just it's it's a difference it's a distinction without a difference let's say the Islamic State
01:31:17.360the Islamic State goes and conquers these areas and goes to the Christians and says
01:39:03.720but it's important to understand here again what's going on finally chapter 33 verse 50 oh prophet
01:39:10.120yeah he's he's basically talking about concubines and sex slaves and um this is the so these passages
01:39:19.640that he's talking about in the quran in terms of like you know um what your right hand possesses
01:39:25.480That's basically what gave the, you know, so-called justification for Islamic terrorists to kidnap all of those Yazidi women and girls, I think it was like 7,000 of them that they kidnapped and they sold them all into slavery.
01:39:47.140And, you know, many of them have been rescued, but many of them are still, unfortunately, sex slaves.
01:39:56.500And, you know, this is permissible in the Koran.
01:40:00.860And no one really talks about the Arab slave trade.
01:40:05.020I've done live streams about it in the past.
01:40:08.380I'll see if I can do another one, an upcoming one.
01:40:12.780But the Arab slave trade included a lot of European women, in fact, that were basically concubines.
01:40:24.160And yeah, it was incredibly prominent.
01:40:28.640We have made lawful for you your wives whose bridal dues you have paid and the slave girls you possess from among the spoils of war.
01:40:39.220So this makes it very clear that these are women who've been captured in war.
01:40:42.780And they are non-Muslim women, and it's very well delineated in Islamic theology that a man can have as many as four wives and also these sex slaves that are non-Muslim women that have been captured in war.
01:40:54.560This is exactly what the Islamic State did.
01:40:57.300And note also that the Islamic State didn't make this up.
01:41:01.320So when he's talking about the Islamic State, that's ISIS.
01:41:04.820And he's referring to, you know, for example, the Yazidi genocide, which happened, I believe it was in 2014, if I'm not mistaken.
01:41:15.700And of course, this speech, this talk is happening in 2015, so about 10 years ago.
01:41:20.980The Islamic State did not originate this.
01:41:23.240The Nigerian group Boko Haram, well before the Islamic State did it, also captured a number of non-Muslim women and was doing exactly the same thing.
01:41:32.020And remember Michelle Obama had the hashtag, bring back our girls.
01:47:10.400And especially now that we just received breaking news that the FBI foiled an Islamic terrorist attack that was being organized by the pro-Palestine groups in the United States.
01:47:30.040And they were planning on doing an Islamic terrorist attack on New Year's Eve.
01:47:35.340So, I mean, guys, you have to take this stuff very, very seriously.
01:47:38.460...sacrifice of his son Ishmael, and then he stopped by Allah.
01:47:46.120You may recall something like that in the Old Testament, but of course it's Isaac.
01:47:52.640In any case, both of the presidents greeted the Muslims on Eid al-Adha and said,
01:48:00.320in Abraham we have a common father, and if we follow out the principles that are inherent in that,
01:48:06.640then we will find harmony in common ground it sounds great right the problem
01:48:11.680is the Muslims don't read Genesis they don't read that Abraham's the father of
01:48:14.440many nations they don't have any idea about that they read the Quran the Quran
01:48:19.060has Abraham Abraham's in chapter 60 verse 4 chapter 60 verse 4 says Abraham is an
01:48:27.160excellent example very important words excellent example that means you you
01:48:34.060imitate Abraham. Muhammad is called the excellent example in chapter 33 verse 21 of the Quran. That
01:48:38.840means everything Muhammad does is good and right and you should imitate it. So here we have the
01:48:43.220same thing being said about Abraham, except here it's qualified. You have an excellent example in
01:48:47.940Abraham and his companions. When they said to their people, so this is where you should imitate
01:48:53.340Abraham, you understand, when he said this, we totally dissociate ourselves from you and from
01:48:59.680the gods you worship instead of Allah we renounce you and there's enmity and
01:49:04.000hatred between us and you until you believe in a law the one true God that's
01:49:09.400where you should imitate Abraham in hating everybody who doesn't believe in
01:49:12.640Allah enmity and hatred between us and you until you believe in one true in a
01:49:17.620law the one true God but you may not emulate Abraham the verse goes on to say
01:49:22.840when he says to his father certainly I will ask forgiveness for you so in other
01:49:28.540words you got to imitate Abraham when he says there's hatred between the
01:49:32.260unbelievers and us forever until you become Muslim but you may not imitate
01:49:38.140Abraham when he says I will pray for forgiveness for the unbelievers and so
01:49:43.300when the Muslim world receives the greetings of Bush and Obama on Eid al-Adha
01:49:48.040and they say we should be like Abraham they think oh that means I should hate
01:49:52.000you and this is the kind of blunder that comes from ignorance of the Islamic
01:49:59.680theology and so in closing I can say we are in a very serious battle this is a
01:50:06.680battle of life and death the Islamic State routinely says we will win
01:50:10.600because we love death more than you love life and I know that's the seal of their
01:50:15.040destruction it's going to come at a great price and we have a great cross to
01:50:18.520bear, I'm sure, that's coming. But we know the author of life is going to conquer. And so we
01:50:24.720know that insofar as we are on his side, then he will always trample upon death. And so we know
01:50:31.320that the final victory is assured. But I hope that we will have the strength spiritually to
01:50:40.120understand this as a spiritual battle and to confront it as such, realizing in confidence
01:50:45.860that the victory is, the final victory is ours, but understanding that it will come through the
01:50:50.220cross. Thank you very much. Okay, so that was, let me just pull it up for you here. So for those of
01:50:59.060you who are interested in learning more about this speech, and possibly re-watching it, this was
01:51:08.880Robert Spencer, and his speech is called The Theological Aspects of Islam That Lead to Jihad.
01:51:19.460This was his talk from 10 years ago, November 23, 2015, and it has 380,000 views. I mean,
01:51:32.480I don't think that's enough. I think, you know, this should be mandatory watching for everyone
01:51:35.920in western countries but there you go so if you're interested um in watching that yourselves or
01:51:41.040sharing it um there you go there's one final video that i want to uh play um with with robert
01:51:51.780spencer um and i you know this is also very very um relevant now this was aired this video was
01:52:01.040aired three months ago, and it only has 8,000 views, unfortunately. So it's called Jihad in
01:52:09.320the West. Robert Spencer warns of Islamization, propaganda, and rising threats. So we are going
01:52:19.420to watch this one as well. This, of course, is a bit more recent. It's only from three months ago.
01:52:26.800And as you can tell, many people, myself, Robert Spencer, and so many others, we have been warning about Islamic terrorism and jihad for quite a long time.
01:52:43.640And yet, for some reason, people either ignore us or we're accused of, you know, Islamophobia, or we're considered extreme or, you know, whatever, whatever other, you know, garbage nonsense they want to throw out.
01:52:58.140But one thing that I'm noticing is that more and more people are waking up and realizing that maybe they have been gaslit by the media, you know, maybe all this talk about DEI and multiculturalism and diversity and, you know, white supremacy, maybe that's not entirely accurate.
01:53:24.220And maybe there is something to what people are saying about the dangers of jihad and Islamic terrorism.
01:53:36.480And, you know, I'm actually noticing that quite a bit on my own channel.
01:53:41.280and i do want before i play uh before i play this video um let me just put it up here
01:53:47.280before i play this video uh by robert spencer i just i really do want to thank all of you
01:53:53.440for joining my live streams whether you're on x or um on youtube but especially on youtube you
01:54:01.520guys are really really helping me uh to grow my channel um less than three months ago less
01:54:08.160than three months ago when i started doing my daily live streams on october 1 i was at maybe
01:54:14.960around 1500 1600 followers and right now thanks to all of you and um all of your support i'm almost
01:54:24.480at 42 000 so um i i've gained like 40 000 followers um on youtube in two and a half months and you
01:54:35.040know you guys are helping me get my videos out there you're helping me get my live streams out
01:54:40.240there and one thing that i've started doing more recently is i'm doing um short form short form
01:54:47.840content videos uh and those seem to be a very very big hit so i wasn't really doing um short form
01:54:56.480content videos before i was doing mostly you know i was focusing more um on the live streams but here
01:55:04.880here, let me show you guys. So like this, this, these numbers are just insane to me. So, you
01:55:11.300know, I just started something called Goldie Unfiltered. And, you know, some of these videos
01:55:15.820are getting thousands, thousands of views, like this Sharia 101. I already have 108,000 views.
01:55:23.900Anti-Islam protests by Iranians in mosques, 107,000. My video that I posted last night,
01:55:30.88042,000 views. Um, like again, for, for a small account like mine, cause, uh, okay, now I'm at
01:55:38.78041.8. So, um, my account, you know, subscriptions are going up. Um, memberships are going up as well.
01:55:45.860And I just want to thank all of you guys. Like you guys are, um, encouraging me and, um, giving
01:55:52.880me the motivation to continue doing what I'm doing. And I'm starting to realize that I was
01:55:59.860really missing out by not posting these short form videos because I was, you know, focusing more on
01:56:06.940my lives. And so, you know, if you go to like my my live list here, like I've got there's like
01:56:15.320literally at least 50 live streams here, right? Like 50 live streams. And then, you know, oh,
01:56:23.760what's going on let me make this big here um 50 live streams here and then you know i have um
01:56:32.080i've got like my my documentary series here as well like where we rate documentaries from
01:56:37.920iran but one thing i'm noticing is these these short form videos where um i kind of take you
01:56:45.760know a few of the concepts and i just kind of shorten it down and i provide it in bite-sized
01:56:51.280pieces. Oh, thank you so much, Lionel. Thank you for being here. Have a good day. Yeah, I find
01:56:58.120that when I do the short form, I guess, I guess it catches people's eye more, right? Because if
01:57:06.520I'm talking about a topic on a live stream, and I'm doing it for, you know, two, two and a half
01:57:11.940hours, I guess not a lot of people tune into that. But these these short form videos, you know,
01:57:18.020the algorithm is just really, really kicking off here. So yeah, yeah. So thank you so much for
01:57:26.160that, guys. I really do appreciate it. And, you know, you guys are encouraging me, because I've
01:57:33.800been warning about this stuff for quite a long time. And I was accused by the National Council
01:57:41.480of Canadian Muslims for, you know, Islamophobia, for speaking about this, and, you know, for the
01:57:47.680crime of, you know, talking to Tommy Robinson about the Islamic Republic occupying Iran. And
01:57:56.000you would think Canada would have freedom of speech. But no, apparently, we have blasphemy
01:58:00.780laws and the National Council of Canadian Muslims apparently can dictate who you can and can't speak
01:58:06.740with. So anyways, but thankfully, you know, I'm not a politician anymore. So I'm free to speak
01:58:14.020and I'm free to say whatever I want to say, which is actually really refreshing. And the fact that
01:58:21.060you guys are so supportive, and you're helping me grow my channel. And, you know, you're watching
01:58:27.520my videos, sharing my videos. And also for those of you who are becoming paid members and, you know,
01:58:35.260supporting my channel financially through monthly paid memberships. I know it's only $10 a month,
01:58:42.620but I mean, that really does make a difference and it does add up. And so I really do appreciate
01:58:49.120that as well. And I will be working more, um, on member perks. So for all of our new members,
01:58:54.720I do members only live streams, um, after my daily show today, I won't be doing one only because,
01:59:03.440um, I do have to, uh, be somewhere, um, for, uh, I do have plans at five o'clock.
01:59:10.800And so I have to prepare and leave and I can't do a members only live stream because I still do have to fit in my my, you know, daily, daily video.
01:59:23.920so um yeah i mean i i think i think i'll i'll leave it there for now i i said i did say that
01:59:32.380i was going to uh play a second video by robert spencer but i wasn't looking at the time it's
01:59:37.840it's 2 15 i still have to do my my daily short video you know that takes me a little bit and
01:59:44.400then i have to get ready and go but you know thank you everyone for joining me um thank you for your
01:59:50.760support. Thank you for the super chats. Thank you for all of the comments. I will definitely do a
01:59:56.360members only after show tomorrow, 100%. Um, tomorrow I don't have, uh, plans in the evening.
02:00:03.960So, and then, um, whether or not I'm going to be doing, um, a live stream this evening,
02:00:11.740that really depends on what time I'm done my evening plans. So, um, if, if I am done and,
02:00:20.440you know, I'm, I'm home, um, you know, around, let's say if I'm home by like, you know,
02:00:27.240nine or 9.30 PM, then, you know, I might do a live stream. I'll do like a late show type of
02:00:34.460thing. Um, but if not, then I will see you all tomorrow. Thank you everyone for joining. I hope
02:00:41.720you appreciated, uh, today's live stream. And, uh, you know, once again, my condolences to,
02:00:48.260everyone who has been impacted by this horrific terrorist attack at Bandai Beach.
