Historian and author Raymond Ibrahim joins The Winston Marshall Show for a powerful, eye-opening conversation on the hidden history of Islam's conquest of the Christian world—and why so few dare to speak about it today.Raymond traces the rapid Islamic expansion following Muhammad's death, showing how, within just one century, Muslim armies had violently overrun three-quarters of the original Christian world—from Syria and Egypt to Spain and deep into Europe.He dismantles the myth of Andalusian "tolerance," reveals the brutal realities behind the so-called Islamic Golden Age, and explains how the Islamic conquests shattered the Mediterranean world, plunging Europe into the Dark Ages.Raymond explores the modern censorship around Christian persecution, the resurgence of historical jihadist rhetoric in groups like ISIS, and the urgent lessons today's leaders refuse to learn.All this—the real story of the Crusades, the lost Christian heartlands, the enduring legacy of conquest, and the history the mainstream media won't touch…Learn more about Raymond belowRaymond's Website: https://www.raymondibrahim.com/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------00:00 – Introduction01:37 – Who is Raymond Ibrahim?02:21 – Personal Background: Egyptian Heritage and Academic Journey05:00 – From Academia to Writing: A New Path06:08 – Key Works: Sword and Scimitar and Christian Persecution07:12 – The Impact of His Work and Public Controversy10:00 – The Battle of Yarmouk: Turning Point in Islamic Expansion12:10 – The Expansion of Islam: From Arabia to the Christian World17:07 – The Battle of Tours: Stopping the Islamic Advance20:00 – The Dark Ages: How Islam Shaped Europe's Future25:00 – Why Was the Muslim Conquest So Successful?28:50 – The Reconquista: A Slow and Steady Christian Resistance33:13 – Andalusia: Myths of Peaceful Coexistence40:00 – The Seljuk Turks and Pre-Crusade Persecutions44:10 – Pope Urban II and the Call for the First Crusade50:00 – The Crusades: Misunderstood or Justified?55:30 – The Battle of Manzikert and the Beginning of the Crusades1:00:00 – Charlemagne and the Rise of Christian Defensiveness1:05:00 – Early Relations Between Islam and the West1:10:30 – The Persecution of Christians in the Middle East1:15:00 – Crusades: Religious Wars or Defensive Actions?1:20:00 – The Myths of Islamic Golden Age Contributions1:25:00 – Crusades and Their Aftermath: The Long-Lasting Impact1:30:00 – The Religious and Ideological Roots of the Conflict1:35:00 – Western Misunderstanding of Islamic History1:40:00 – The Rise of Jihadism and Modern Conflicts1:45:00 – The Importance of Historical Context in Modern Conflicts1:50:00 – The Ongoing Persecution of Christians1:55:00 – Reflections on Western Values and Islamic Influence2:00:00 – Conclusion: Understanding the Past to Navigate the Future Hosted on Acast.

Hamas declared the most hideous war on Israel and Jewish People, and the world did nothing. Israel can easily deal with Hamas if it is given the freedom to prosecute the war properly.

I discuss the ongoing conflict in Gaza, emphasizing the failures of conventional approaches and the need for a new perspective. I critique the Palestinian leadership's historical rejections of statehood offers and highlights the role of Hamas in perpetuating violence. I also stress the importance of establishing a clear moral stance against jihadism, drawing parallels with the post-World War II de-Nazification efforts. Ultimately, I argue that without addressing the root causes of jihadism, peace in the Middle East remains unattainable. - Timestamps:  00:00 The Historical Context of Gaza's Conflict 03:29 The Role of Regional Players in Gaza's Future 06:25 Moral Clarity and the Fight Against Jihadism - This Episode Brought To You By…  Shop For Everybody  Use code SFE10 for 10% OFF

Terrorist activity in Central Asia traces its roots back to the Soviet era - but following the collapse of the USSR in the 1990s, suppressed religious movements evolved into underground Islamist networks, fuelling the rise of jihadist groups in the region. Today, Central Asia faces an increasingly complex terrorism landscape. In this episode of the podcast, Lucas Webber speaks to Bruce Pannier, a Central Asia Fellow at the Eurasia Program at the Foreign Policy Research Institute and a veteran journalist covering the region. Together, they explore the origins of jihadism in Central Asia, the rise of Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) there, and the potential impact of the Assad government's fall in Syria in 2024 on regional jihadist movements. We also hear about the role the internet has played for terrorist networks there.

On this Friday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, it's a new year for the NYPD, but the dysfunction within the department remains consistent, with now disgraced former NYPD Chief Jeffrey Maddrey's home being raided earlier this week. It's a new year for the United States Congress as well, but the GOP lawmakers continue to fight over the same nonsense in 2025, threatening to vote current Speaker of the House Mike Johnson out of his speakership seat. In other news of the day, Jihadism is here and it is real, and Sid officially makes the cut on Roger Stone's "Best Dressed of 2024" list. Joseph Abboud, Curtis Sliwa, Mike Lawler, Ray Kelly, Joe Tacopina and Joe Benigno join Sid on this Friday installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning. Learn more about your ad choices.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. So much for wishful thinking that a Syria liberated from the monstrous Bashir Assad regime would become a pluralistic democracy if only an al Qaeda veteran named Abu Mohammed al-Julani were fatuously transformed into a “moderate” politician and put in charge of the country.   In recent days, his designated terrorist group, known as HTS, and its Turkish enablers have made clear that their intentions are very different, witness the torching of Christmas trees, the murderous destruction of a shrine holy to Alawites and genocidal attacks on Kurds – setting the stage for the same to be done to other minorities. Joe Biden has effectively greenlighted such crimes against humanity and invited worse by lifting the 10 million dollar bounty on al-Julani's head and beginning to provide funding to his regime.We must jettison this formula for far worse to come in Syria, and beyond. This is Frank Gaffney.

Omar Baddar and Jake Newfield debate whether Israel is an Apartheid State, and also whether Jihadism and Terrorism are caused by oppression.

With an M.A. in International Relations, he focuses on U.S. policy in the Middle East and has appeared on CNN, BBC, and Al Jazeera.

Econtalk Key Takeaways  “It is not totally irrational to worry about society suddenly becoming fundamentally hostile to Jews, even in the West.” – Sam Harris In America, every year after September 11th, Jews have been a greater target of hate crime than any other group in American society, including Muslims and African Americans Islam expects conquest – this makes it fundamentally different than most other religions The central message of the Quran is not about love or compassion; instead, its message is that you should fear going to hell Islam is not a race; it is a set of ideasThe power of bad ideas is much more consequential than the power of bad people If the Palestinians laid down their arms, there would be peace in the Middle East; if the Jews laid down their arms, there would be genocide  The fate of open societies is at stake today; it is not “just” the rise of Jew hatred The basis for hope: We are talking about ideas here, and people can change their minds Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgNeuroscientist and author Sam Harris of the podcast Making Sense talks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about rising Jew-hatred in the West and what Harris sees as the dangers of radical Islam and Jihadism.

The government troops [would] come and burn down the villages—kill whoever that they will find. … When I see what happened recently in Israel, where they went and burned down, and shot people—that's exactly what I experienced when I was a child.”When Simon Deng was nine years old, he was kidnapped from South Sudan and brought to the North. He was given to an Arab family as a “gift,” and enslaved for more than three years.“I'm here talking to you as a living proof of the slavery which still exists,” says Mr. Deng.25 years ago, Charles Jacobs helped to liberate tens of thousands of slaves in Africa, and received an award from Coretta Scott King for his work.“We went to the slave redemption sites, and we talked to the survivors who were brought back. And they told us their stories,” he says.Today, Mr. Deng and Mr. Jacobs are cofounders of the newly-formed African Jewish Alliance, which raises awareness about the threat posed by Jihadism.“Hamas is no different than Boko Haram in Nigeria,“ says Mr. Jacobs. ”It's one front in Israel, but it belongs to a global movement. And people need to know that.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Five years after the fall of the so-called Islamic State caliphate in Iraq and Syria, the EU's anti-terrorism coordinator sees a more diffuse threat, coming from many different directions and spreading online. This is what Bartjan Wegter calls "mutant jihadism". With FRANCE 24's Armen Georgian, he discusses Afghanistan, IS-KP (Islamic State – Khorasan Province), and how the French authorities are trying to make the upcoming Olympic games secure – efforts that Wegter praises as "impressive". Wegter admits that more needs to be done to tackle what he calls "borderline content" online that might be inciting hatred and fuelling individuals' radicalisation. He also draws attention to new forms of terrorist financing such as cryptocurrencies – something that the EU and national authorities should keep a close eye on, he says.

They discuss the social basis of the groups, the role of different countries and different armies, the reasons behind the military coups and their possible future paths as well as how much is not really known about these groups.

In this week's episode, we investigate the term ‘White Jihad,' the seemingly paradoxical interaction between white supremacy and Jihadism online. We ask how this loose online community emerged, who it attracts, and what can be done to counter it. Join Archie Macfarlane as he speaks with Dr. Federico Borgonovo, a research-analyst at ITSTIME, the Italian Team for Security Terroristic Issues and Managing Emergencies, at the Catholic University of Sacred Heart, in Milan.You can read a transcript of this episode here. If you want to find out more about Tech Against Terrorism and our work, visit techagainstterrorism.org or follow us on X, where you can find resources on this topic. Resources:ITSTIME websiteExploring the Whitejihad Digital Ecosystem - F.Borgonovo & S.R.LuciniTech Against Terrorism Europe (TATE) website

An important new study exposes Team Biden's reckless disregard for reality in the existential war being waged by Sharia-supremacists against our ally, Israel – and, ultimately, against us and the rest of Judeo-Christian civilization.  It cites, for example, a claim by the faction Biden insists can be relied upon to run post-war Gaza and a new Palestinian state, that last year, “More than 1,500 military operations against the Israeli occupation were led by the Fatah Movement members and the [Palestinian Authorities'] Security Forces.” When the President sanctioned four Israeli West-Bank “settlers” yesterday for violence against Palestinians and their supporters, however, he made no mention of such “operations” by the very PA paramilitaries the U.S. is training and arming. By so doing, he is inviting more of those jihadist attacks – and very possibly an October 7th-style massacre in Judea and Samaria. This is Frank Gaffney.

Upon entering the White House, Joe Biden delisted the Sharia-supremacist group known as “Houthi rebels” as a U.S. designated terrorist organization.  Legitimating dangerous, Iran-enabled jihadists engaged in frequent attacks on American allies was a symptom of the Obama-Biden Doctrine: namely, treat your enemies better than your friends. It guarantees you'll have more – and stronger – enemies, and far fewer friends. We're now reaping the whirlwind of this mad policy. Tens of billions of dollars still flowing to the Iranian mullahs in cash and sanctions relief are enriching, empowering and emboldening them and their masters in the Chinese Communist Party. That's produced Tehran-backed war on Israel and, increasingly, on merchant shipping vital to the world economy.   America's assuming responsibility for protecting such shipping while precluding actions that would neutralize the Houthis and punish Iran is an invitation for more, and worse, perils to come. This is Frank Gaffney.

From the forgotten Silk Letter Movement, a plot led by Deoband clerics to overthrow English imperial rule, to modern jihadists who've joined the Islamic State and al-Qaeda, Indian terrorists have long taken inspiration from successful struggles overseas. Gaza could fire the imagination of a new generation of terrorists, and India should be cautious.

In this thought-provoking episode, Rob & Ruairi delve deep into the tumultuous relationship between the United States of America and Syria, shedding light on the profound damage inflicted upon the war-torn nation by its civil war. Join us as we explore just how responsible the United States is for this catastrophe inflicted on the Syrian people and their government. The Arab Spring, initially a movement for democratic reforms, quickly morphed into a brutal civil war in which a wide range of external powers, including the United States, seemed to be competing to find ways to make the conflict worse. Through careful analysis, we explore the motivations behind the American intervention and the consequences it brought forth. The sad truth is that the United States is vastly more responsible for this catastrophe than is recognized. We discuss the deployment of American troops and their role in the fight against ISIS, questioning the long-term consequences of such military interventions, and the extent to which out of control Jihadism was a US creation in the first place. Perhaps most importantly, we explore the ongoing economic ramifications of American actions in Syria. These sanctions imposed by the United States have destroyed Syria's economy, exacerbating the suffering of the Syrian people. Put simply, Syria will not be allowed to recover, no matter what the Arab League does, until the United States changes this murderous policy. - ⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Books⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠

Africa is the second largest continent in the world, both in land area and population. It has more than 1.2 billion people — most of them young and poor — living in 54 countries. If current demographic trends continue, Africa will account for a quarter of humanity by the middle of this century.In Africa, conflicts are more often within countries rather than between them. Sudan and Ethiopia are current examples.Today, al Qaeda and the Islamic State are active across Africa. So is the Wagner Group, a lawless private army loyal to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.And China's ruling Communist Party has become a neo-imperialist power on the continent, exploiting African peoples and resources.Joining host Cliff May to talk about Africa is Joshua Meservey.He's currently a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, where he focuses on African geopolitics, counterterrorism, and great power competition in Africa.He was previously a research fellow for Africa at the Heritage Foundation. He's also worked at the US Army Special Operations Command, for Church World Service based out of Nairobi, Kenya, and he was a Peace Corps volunteer in Zambia. And he's a member of FDD's National Security Network.

“The problem is that this idea that what we used to believe were inviolable, sacred rights, can be suspended because of an emergency then they're not sacred, then they're not inviolable, then they're basically temporary and they're not rights: they're permissions.”— Maajid NawazMaajid Nawaz is a UK-based counter-extremism activist, author and content producer. In this interview, we discuss his membership of a fundamentalist pan-Islam political group, imprisonment in Egypt, and returning to the UK to work on counter-extremism. We also discuss being forced to leave his position as a presenter on LBC.- - - - Maajid Nawaz experienced first-hand the rise of Islamic extremism through the 1990s. At the time terrorism was not viewed to be a major global issue: it was confined to specific pockets around the world or used by individuals expressing narrow ideological views. This was when Nawaz was a senior member of a political organisation pushing for the establishment of an Islamic caliphate.Then 9/11 happened, which brought the threat of Islamic terrorism sharply into focus. Nawaz and like-minded people were now perceived to be the enemy by a growing political alliance. Nawaz was in Egypt, arriving a day before 9/11. He was picked up and imprisoned for 4 years in Egypt's most notorious prison. He witnessed torture and was subject to a period in solitary confinement. Following pressure from Amnesty amongst others, Nawaz was eventually released and returned to the UK. Rather than turn to thoughts of revenge, Nawaz sort to break the cycle of violence. He renounced his Islamist past and then co-founded a counter-extremist foundation. He ended up advising leaders around the world, including UK Prime Minister David Cameron and US President George Bush.Nawaz is now a content producer seeking to cover a range of issues: politics, security and human rights, Jihadism, Nationalism, China's ill-treatment of Uighurs, and the Covid lockdowns. His dissenting views on the orthodoxy regarding vaccines led to him being forced to leave as a presenter on the talk radio station LBC and becoming an independent voice. There is a certain clarity of thought that comes from having experienced at close quarters how the geo-political landscape has shifted and changed over the past two decades. Nawaz has clear ideas on how the world works, how institutions and systems behave, and why we must question the mainstream narrative. When all systems lean toward power, it is important for some to lean in the opposite direction.- - - - This episode's sponsors:Gemini - Buy Bitcoin instantlyLedn - Financial services for Bitcoin hodlersBitcasino - The Future of Gaming is herePacific Bitcoin - Bitcoin‑only event, Nov 10 & 11, 2022Ledger - State of the art Bitcoin hardware walletCompass Mining - Bitcoin mining & hostingCake Wallet - Open-source, privacy-focused Bitcoin walletBCB Group - Global digital financial Services-----WBD543 - Show Notes-----If you enjoy The What Bitcoin Did Podcast you can help support the show by doing the following:Become a Patron and get access to shows early or help contributeMake a tip:Bitcoin: 3FiC6w7eb3dkcaNHMAnj39ANTAkv8Ufi2SQR Codes: BitcoinIf you do send a tip then please email me so that I can say thank youSubscribe on iTunes | Spotify | Stitcher | SoundCloud | YouTube | Deezer | TuneIn | RSS FeedLeave a review on iTunesShare the show and episodes with your friends and familySubscribe to the newsletter on my websiteFollow me on Twitter Personal | Twitter Podcast | Instagram | Medium | YouTubeIf you are interested in sponsoring the show, you can read more about that here or please feel free to drop me an email to discuss options.
