Admiral James A. “Ace” Lyons, USN (ret) is the former commander in chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and senior U.S. military representative to the United Nations. He wrote this to me after reading my book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, which you can order here now.
Robert, just finished your great book: The History of Jihad from Muhammad to ISIS! Anybody who doesn’t understand the evil of Jihad after reading your book has to be brain dead!! Ace
So order the book while you still can (it’s out of stock at Amazon due to unexpectedly high demand, but if you order it, your order should be filled soon), and find out what has the Leftist establishment so afraid: the truth that Leftists and Islamic supremacists so desperately want to conceal.
Marina says
The Admiral is right.
jule says
Yes, and thank you Spencer. And they should read the Qur’an/Hadiths and charge anyone preaching it in a Mosque or school that this is the True Unchanging Words of Allah to b obeyed, or else, with Criminal Threats of assault or coming under their Rule, causing sustained fear of millions of people as well as death to many murdered by those inspired by this book & ‘religion’. California Penal Code 422pc (for verbal, written or electronically sent Threats of harm) Every State now has such a code.
Anyone who reads it sees the Supersupremacist goals, ongoing, whether violent or political. It is unchanged since 600AD and the history and countries conquered are all in Spencers book too. It most defintely is NOT a religion of Peace and Equality and allows no Multiculturalism Period.

Personally I think this should be required reading for all military commanding officers….well maybe in all military academies as well. Maybe law enforcement too..Awww why not everyone and this includes the uninformed Muslims.
Diane Harvey says
Good to get the endorsement of the admiral. However he’s a RETIRED admiral, meaning he has little ability to influence those who currently are admirals. So to the extent he can provide some influence I’m hoping he’ll do so. Without doubt there are many in the services who, having seen Muslims in action in our endless wars, know that Islam is one horrid ideology. But if promotion is a goal many of these keep their mouths shut. The officer ranks, the leaders, are particularly prone to this. Mattis has to know the nature of Islam.Trump seems willing to remove blinders, but why is it taking so long?
Islam is at war with us. We must acknowledge that and shift tactics.
mortimer says
I hope many military officers and serving members will take the advice of Adm. Lyons and read this book.
OFFICERS must “KNOW THEIR ENEMY” if they are to effectively FIGHT their enemy. The JIHADISTS ARE THE ENEMY and The History of Jihad by Robert Spencer will acquaint military officers and personnel with the MIND OF THE JIHADIST and with the ACTIONS of the JIHADISTS.
The History of Jihad is essential reading in preparation to fight JIHADISTS.

It is not a matter BETWEEN Islam and us BUT a matter between GOD whom our LEADERS and and we the PEOPLE DO neither FOLLOW nor OBEY, THEREFORE punishment is INEVITABLE.
Look throughout the Old Testament and SEE was it NOT SIMILAR to

Many thanks to Adm. Lyons for this pithy, no-nonsense comment. Indeed, after reading The History of Jihad, I was somewhat dumbstruck that Muslims could continue this entirely vicious conduct for 1400 years without asking themselves if it were reasonable to murder people because they disbelieve that Mohammed is a valid prophet.
However, Muslims EVEN TODAY believe that deniers of Mohammed’s prophethood should die and that their families should be enslaved. They believe, preposterously, that their bigoted jihad is the will of Allah.
I agree with Adm. Lyons that it is hard to imagine someone reading The History of Jihad and not concluding that Islam is a fountain of evil pouring out of the JIHAD DOCTRINE.
I repeat the following slogan to the BRAINDEAD LEFTARDS: “IT’S THE IDEOLOGY, STUPID”.

I look forward to reading your comments always, until I get to the ‘leftard’ stuff. I am on the left but I am not braindead and I do know how sick Islam is and how it makes people act like/think like mentally ill from their model. But you are right that I have much trouble with the left around me trying to explain how deep this stuff sinks into their minds. Its terror and fear even for them to try to imagine something else. And there is the tribal Loyalty till death do part that happens with lots of groups. There are many reasons they block the truth from themselves and its so hard to challenge all the extra issues that influence them. One of the excuses they use, and rightly so, are the NAZIgroups being used as they are. Or the KKKlan or the White Supremacists who ruin our arguments, get in the way, and will be the cause of our downfall just as much as the left mis assumptions. Same with Evangelicals who keep tryingto push into Government acts because if they even crack open a door, Islam will flood in behind them with ‘equal rights excuses’ . I am surprised THEY don’t realize it. Why don’t you think they do? This and the Multinational who want to keep working in midEast and know noting about Beliefs except in money. Its depressing. but we can never give up trying in ACCEPTABLE ways to Expose. I look forward to everything you comment (but intimidation is not the way, nor is snark like too many do….it makes the other sides slam the door right away)

FYI says
And any muslim who doesn’t see by now,the enormous herd of rampaging ELEPHANTS IN THE ROOM OF of islam needs to sit down and THINK…
1.First Elephant… islam is THE Religion of Peace
{Seriously?THE religion of peace?1,400 years of spreading the love?}
2.Second Elephant… the koran contains no errors{Oh Yes it does:Numerous..
theo-logical and logical howlers}
The role of the Jews is dismissed,The crucifixion of Christ is DENIED K4:157,and hilariously,that aspect of God through which His Wisdom and prophecy comes from,which was revealed by Jesus in the Gospel{which remember,allah claims to have written see k3;3}is DENIED by allah in koran 4:171.And the whole point of the Torah-the importance of OBEYING God’s {10+2}laws- appears to have been completely missed by allah.The 2nd chief commandment is warped too:instead of trying to get along{God} we have allah telling muslims not to get along with infidels:”take not the Jews and christians for friends” koran 5:51
3.Third Elephant…muhammed was a prophet{..of “allah” perhaps..but Not of God..}
allah tells mo “WE shall make thee READ o muhammed so that thou shalt not forget” in koran 87:6…which is most unfair of allah when it is understood that muhammed can neither “READ nor write” k7;157.How is a “prophet” to know if he cannot read?
mean,allah.mean.
BTW,mo also actually admitted to being a false prophet in al tabari 6:111:something muslims hate infidels finding out.
“I have fabricated things AGAINST GOD and have imputed to him things he has not said”
4.Fourth Elephant…muhammed was the perfect man{ahahahaha}
Sure.And hitler was a Rabbi and the number 17 is a perfect square.
Look at “perfect” mo’s life: see if you can find even one commandment he didn’t break.And note he didn’t die like islamic martyrs…
Abu Dawud 4390:no mass-murderer of Jews could ever be a prophet of God.
5.Fifth Elephant..the koran confirms the Bible{Nope:it CONTRADICTS IT}
In koran 3:3 allah claims to be the author of the koran AND the Bible but
the moral laws revealed in the Torah are totally contradicted by allah’s koranic teachings and everything Jesus Christ said in the Gospel{the Word of God to Christians}is denied by allah.Everything Jesus Christ taught is dismissed.
6 Sixth Elephant …islam respects Jesus Christ
Apart from insulting and cursing Christians {koran 9:30} ,allah has a ferocious hatred of Jews.
The Jews are “Apes to be despised and hated” koran 2:65 says allah.
But ..ehm..isn’t Jesus Christ a JEW?
So is Moses.
{A funny thing about surah 2:in koran 2 v 87 allah says
“WE verily gave unto Moses the scripture” but earlier on in koran 2:65 allah makes it clear how he feels about Jews.
Isn’t Moses JEWISH??Did allah miss that or perhaps,as muslims do,simply pretend that Moses{like Jesus} are actually muslims?}
7.Seventh Elephant..islam is a tolerant creed
Not if you are Christian,Jewish,Ex-muslim,Gay,Atheist,Hindu,Sikh,Bahai,Buddhist….
allah ,please note, CURSES Jews AND Christians k9:30,is violently antisemitic and racist k2:65 and misogynistic.
And unlike God,allah only speaks in 7th century Arabic{So where does that leave Moses and Jesus if allah doesn’t relate to Hebrew or Aramaic?And wasn’t the Torah that allah claims he wrote… in Hebrew,not 7th century Arabic?}
8.Eight elephant ..allah is God.
allah disagrees with the Commandments,is both antisemitic and antiChristian,is linguistically,logically,theologically and scientifically challenged,contradicts the Bible{which he claims to have written}in his “perfect” koran{which he claims to have written}
allah the cognitively dissonant.
he even admits to being a champion at deceiving people k3:54;which is TRUE
So many Elephants..it’s like being at the Serengeti!….and more to be revealed.
allah might not be pleased with this{but God will..}
“Hast thou not seen how the lord dealt with the owners of the elephant?”
koran 105 v 1
Oh DO tell us allah as I love a riddle…
“above it are nineteen” k74:30
Is that I wonder..Elephants in the Room of islam?
Does any islamic scholar know what allah means?
Bill Posters says
Mohammed claimed (and others have since repeated the claim on his behalf) that Allah spoke directly to him, and that these pearls of wisdom became the basis of the Koran.By extension – everything in the Koran must be true because it comes from Allah! How then do Islamic scholars explain the comments about “the waters under the Earth”? At the time of Mohammed it was widely believed that the Earth was flat – but Allah (God) would have known that this wasn’t true! Mohammed was simply making up stuff to support his agenda.

“has to be brain dead”
No, Darwinian atheists can never get to the root cause of things in this life because you don’t accept being Created, and you don’t accept the God imposed concepts of good and evil which are choices that men do out of their own self determination. You can’t make choices if you are brain dead. People don’t accept the truth that Islam is a vile genocidal, pedophilia promoting, rapist promoting, enslaving death cult because they choose to love evil and hide within the cultural beliefs they are dictated to accept, because if they don’t it means they will be punished by the Antichrist atheist culture who have all power. Antichrist atheists always protect Islam because Islam is Antichrist, they both server the same agenda in different ways, to destroy all Christian civilization worldwide and impose all Satanic evils upon all people worldwide.

duh swami says
Islam has a long history of complicated crap….some of it’s real some of it is not…Robert is good at sorting the wheat from the chaf…If you want clarity read any of Roberts books, especially this new one…
Mark Berlinger says
Islam was invented by Arab supremacists to be a religion for the immature males in the lands they conquered. The primary tenet is “Jihad is for Sharia.” This can be learned in a few days of reading the Muslim sources or in a few hours with a Robert Spencer book. The only thing complicated about it is the obfuscations of Muslim apologists.
James Lincoln says
Admiral Lyons is a true patriot who understands Islam – check out his YouTube videos. In 2015, he claimed that the Muslim Brotherhood had infiltrated every US security agency under the Obama presidency. As far as I can tell, this has proven to be true.
The good Admiral retired many years ago from the United States Navy. Because of his retired status, he is able to tell the truth about Islam. If he were on active duty today, making the same statements about Islam, his officer fitness reports would suffer and it is highly unlikely that he would be promoted through the selection board process. Even worse things could happen, such as forced retirement, other more severe sanctions, etc.

James,
Thanks for the video that says it all about Islam.
Graven,
With all due respect to you. I would not use the term “threat of Islam”. Islam is just an ugly political system that masquerades as a religion. Your oft repeated term “horrors of sharia” seems appropriate(to me). I would not give any respect to the devil inspired Islam.
