Amazing in content and delivery, Robert.

In stark contrast to Obama who can't utter a sentence without a teleprompter, you speak with clarity, sagacity and passion... a leader whose counsel is worth following.

Good speech but better have that cough checked out Robert, we need you a bit longer!

Great job, Mr. Spence.

Oh, yeah.

I live in Santa Barbara and I was out of town!

I am very upset.

Thank you Robert, it is very encouraging for me to see that group of intelligent young people who are becoming more aware and prepared to what will undoubtedly be a greater challenge for them in their future then to what is confronting us presently.

... it was all the more effective a tyranny because it had such an effective public relations machine.

This is at the very center of the grave problem we're up against: we're not up against it. That would be impolite, and would end one's career.

*** 4:142 ***

Sending out great clouds and fogs of disinformation and misinformation that make people not understand the nature of the threat...

As Orwell and McLuhan feared, the power of Opinion Programming has grown beyond the ruling elite's wildest dreams, the Opinion Programming industry has got so good that it has recently taken on the toughest of projects a PR flak could have: making Moslems palatable.

But they're pulling it off, the program is being bought.

Do we have a potential Reagan in our political future? I think the possibility exists with at least two people I can think of.

Lt. Col. Allen West and Bill Whittle immediately come to mind. West has thrown his hat into the political ring, where Whittle has not (not yet, anyway. . .hint hint, wink wink).

Bravo, Robert! Awesome! Hey, you are our Ronald Reagan!

Without a doubt your most informative and intensive speech to date, and I'm going to email this link to all my family & friends, too.

That is really disgusting at around :58 when he mentions that most of the people who brought him in to speak at government agencies have since been fired, not just for bringing him and others in but for generally just following up on this line of thinking about Islam. How in the world are we going to survive when that is how our government is functioning?

Robert; I have to say this was one of your best speeches and I have heard many of them from you over the years.

Of course you clearly recognized that you where talking to a young group of future leaders of America. It is these young folks, our children, and grand children that are going to have to confront the ideology of Islam.

The Patton analogy was a good one an any general worth his salt not only has a responsibility to recognize what truly drives and motivates the enemy that continues to grow bolder ever day in the west, but it is a prerequisite to his formal training. But we as Americans need to demand that our politicians have a clear understanding of Islam as well without question.

I'm going to keep this particular speech in my favorites.

??? The question I have is did any protestors get wind of your speech such sa the Muslims Students Associations on California campuses like Irvine?

Any JW posters in attendance?

Excerpt:

"No one claimed responsibility for Saturday's attack, but suspicion quickly fell on the Islamist militants," ...

Ya think!

Thank you! We all owe you one Robert. Thank you!

It amazes me that so many people are still blind to what is going on. But then again, it gotten so crazy, that sometimes I have to rub my eyes in disbelief.
Hope will not come from the top, but from the ground up, it seems. This will become mainstream, simply because it's factual. The Koran is not a theory, but a fact. Just like you said Robert, 'read the book!'.
Evey one in that room has now eyes, to walk among the blind.

So eloquently put, you are a great thinker.

Thank you!

When I listen to this I despair.

Why? Because I realize that we are light years away from getting a clue. The general ignorance is overwhelming. How many Robert Spencers have we got?

We are dealing with a totalitarian ideology in the guise of religion, a voracious doctrine where the ends justify the means. Our enemies kill and die for it and sacrifice their children, because only Islam matters.

We on the other hand are obsessed with political correctness and delusional kumbaya sing- song, and those who don't buy the propaganda and tell the truth are being vilified and attacked in the most vicious ways.

It was a great speech of Robert and I took a lot of clues from it to take away as arguments. Although many of them I already knew, but now all the more clear.

Robert in my idea confirmed Geert Wilders" distinction between Islam and Muslims". He argued that there is a broad spectrum from shallow to deeply steeped in a religion, with Muslims too, so not all Muslims are going to follow the same goals as the supremacists among them do.

But the Islamic texts are there for all to read, immutable as they are. And we know by now too how they are explained by the supremacists and what they really want and how they want to do it. And that political ideology it is that we have to get to know and expose and fight.

Thank you Robert Spencer for an excellent presentation with real life examples and facts rooted in unvarnished truth about "Islam".

More of this needs to happen around the nation to defeat the purveyors of Islamic sharia and their hegemonic agenda.

Bravo Mr. Spencer!

God Bless America.

I enjoyed ALL your speeches you've given...but I really wish that the students present would watch "What the West Needs to know about Islam"...I enjoyed that VERY MUCH. Thank you for your VERY good work Robert...KEEP up the Fight...and get yourself well...your cough sounded terrible.


As the most powerful and sole superpower on earth, it becomes our elected officials' moral obligation to question and investigate such brutal treatment of Christian, Jewish and other religious minorities in all Islamic countries with their sorry track record on human rights, especially those who receive generous mega billions in free US aid packages such as Pakistan. There is no greater sin than to look the other way while a less fortunate person is slaughtered, raped or persecuted solely on religious grounds.

Romans 2:17 - To Whom Much is Given, Much is Expected.

Why are our leaders so quiet and unwilling to use their influence and exercise power? Is it because the victims of religious persecution can't afford K street lobbyists to represent them in Washington to line the politicians pockets?
Here once again we are spoiling Pakistani officials by reassuring them they need not be accountable for anything. They can keep pushing the envelope, we are simply "too busy" to notice religious or minority persecution. And the Foreign Aid check is the mail as always, thanks to the American taxpayer.
What would happen if the shoe was on the other foot and a Muslim person God forbid was hurt in the US on religious basis??? CAIR would be on every TV channel demanding apologies, stricter hate laws and special treatment.

My apologies. My last post (05:04) was meant for:
Pakistan Christian maid burned alive to keep her from reporting rape.

PFL

That was an excellent presentation Robert, bravo to you.

I so love this bit, "..secret muslim or a dope its all the same" . ROFL GOLD.

Excellent lecture Robert, as always (I've seen others)...you're like a sane voice in an asylum full of lunatics. Few people have your grasp of Islam and your ability to take complex ideas and make them logical, coherent and easy to understand.

The West is very fortunate to have people like yourself, Pamela Geller, Geert Wilders and many other great people who may be unknown but are working just as hard to defend freedom and democracy and help wake up our fellow citizens to the dark, evil scourge of Islam that's engulfing the free world. I only hope that the West clues in before its too late. Time is short, especially for our European friends.

I think it may take a catalyst similar to 9/11 to shock people back to reality again as it did before. Too bad they didn't "get it" back then. Of course I hope no such devastating attack occurs-but it seems we've been forced back into a state of complacency by the left which has doggedly refused to recognize we are in a global war against Islam. In fact in many ways, they're in cahoots with enemy and enabling the jihad whether they know it or not.

Fortunately I have also noticed that our (defenders of freedom) numbers are growing and our voices are getting louder and stronger-eventually they (the deniers of Islamic supremacism) won't be able to ignore us or reality for long.

Wonderful presentation, ROberts. Do take care of that throat of yours.

Excellent speech Robert, it kept my attention throughout, which probably means you had the students mesmerized (in a good way).

I learned a lot & took many notes. I envy your ease with words.

I know you'll take care of your throat so you can give many more fine speeches in the days, months & years to come. Thank you.

Great speech Robert. of course I knew much of it already. though I think something shold be done about the people who fired the people who invited you for talks. This is harrasment and discrimination and corruption.
I also would like to appalud these young people who were asking questions. It's refreshing to hear some intelligent questions instead of the rosi o donald type stupid exclamations you hear fron leftists and pro islamists. These young people here look to be leaders of tomorrow instead of blind followers. I just would like to recognize them all.

Good stuff Robert. The sad part of this is having to have to do it at all. The evidence is apparent and real,and discouraging if the government just willingly bends to it.
It will inevitably be left to individual states to enact laws, in self-preservation mode, to stop the spread of islam in the U.S..Will more States follow?. Who's first? New Hampshire's State motto is "Live Free or Die". Not a bad start.
Thanks Robert.. Take care of yourself will ya?!
