Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Video: Glenn Beck interviews Robert Spencer on The History of Jihad

Oct 20, 2018 4:48 pm By Robert Spencer

In case you missed it: Glenn Beck recently interviewed me; now for the first time the video of our conversation is available. Meanwhile, in this podcast, Beck discusses my being deplatformed and silenced, and talks about our interview, saying: “You can hear that whole interview. It’s fascinating, and I highly recommend it. In fact, I don’t even know if you can do this, but I’d burn it to DVD. I highly recommend that you listen to this guy, and make your own mind up. But do your own homework. Find out why you disagree with him. It will make you stronger either way.”

    So, Robert: Are you still a Melkite Catholic or have you switched to the Greek Orthodox Church not in communion with Rome? I understand the historical connection to the Greek Orthodox faith that the Melkites have, but your response to Beck leaves your affiliation unclear since the typical understanding of Greek Orthodox Christian is that Christian body that broke from Rome a thousand plus years ago, had a brief reconciliation many hundreds of years later, but has remained outside full communion with Rome ever since.

      I am a Greek Orthodox Christian.

        Mr. Spencer thank you very much and JW for the great work you are doing!

        My dad was also Greek Orthodox but also possibly Jewish ancestry, I said was and possibly because he has passed away now , but he has on his tombstone Baruch HaShem

        My dad went threw a lot in his life, first with the deliberate starvation of his people by Stalin and then the Communists took away his dad my grandfather by banging in the door in the middle of the night and taking my grandad away.

        Grandad who was a principal in a school, and “someone said he said something against the state” found himself sent two a Gulag. My dad had told my mum who then would tell me because my dad never talked to me directly about what happened to him in his life when he was a young boy.

        Next came the Nazis who invaded his homeland with what the Nazis called Operation Barbarossa and took my dad away to work as a slave labor for the Germans during the war. After the war my dad didn’t want to go back to a Communist country so headed west and met my mum in England.

        My great Auntie was Jewish was murdered by the Nazis just for being a Jew.

        My dad never saw his father again, Needless to say again, my dad never talked to me directly about his experience of what happened to him but I know by talking to survivors from that time that if you were a Jew you had to be careful not tell anyone that they were Jewish for fear of being murdered.

        From England Mum & Dad came across the pond to North America and rest as they say is history and here I am writing this for the readers of JW.

        We also have to be careful in our Western Judeo-Christian Societies now because history seems to be repeating itself. In our day and age.

        We ALL better stand up and Fight Back while we still have a chance.

        As the great Ben Franklin has stated: We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.

        Thanks, Robert. It appears you have abandoned your relationship with Rome and being considered a Catholic (if indeed you were ever so affiliated), which is most unfortunate even with the current problems in Church leadership regarding Islam and other areas of concern, etc. I shall pray for your return while you continue to provide a most valuable service of educating many on the reality of Islam.

        God Bless!

        • Rob Porter says

          Oct 21, 2018 at 10:07 pm

          Docent, I don’t regard abandoning a relationship with Rome an unfortunate development. This Church with its now disgraceful, Islam-sympathetic Pope Francis, his abandoning of Christians to their fate at the hands of Muslim savages, his disgusting mentality toward Muslim invaders who rape, murder and destroy, his deviation from Biblical teachings and embracing of Marxist teachings, his many leading clergy who both indulge in and advocate practices contrary to Biblical teachings, the clerical liars who abound in the church leadership while covering for pedophiles and rapists, all this is a curse in Gods sight and if not altered will earn God’s wrath. You should pray that God will open you eyes to ways of the present Roman Catholic Church before it ends in a smoldering heap. God will not be mocked by clerical frauds in Rome.

        • Docent says

          Oct 21, 2018 at 11:36 pm

          A reply to Robert:

          Equating the Church with the Pope shows a lack of serious understanding. I also do not like much of what Francis does and says, but to remain faithful to the Church established by Christ that includes His promise to be with it until the end of the world makes it most unfortunate when people do not join the One True Faith, and also unfortunate when they leave it for whatever reason.

          It is your eyes that need to be opened since you have wrongly equated the Church with the failures of the Pope regarding this or that. It was a good straw man fallacy, though, if you like spouting fallacies.

          For more insights into what the Catholic Church actually is, check out the website known as Catholic Answers instead of making false and misinformed claims about the Church specifically established by Jesus Christ.

          Docent, when has Robert Spencer *ever* made false and misinformed claims about the Catholic Church? This is just calumny.

        • gravenimage says

          I had assumed that the “Robert” here was Robert Spencer.

      Wow, you certainly got a lot out of the 11/4 hour discussion on the history of Islam.

    • FYI says

      Oct 21, 2018 at 2:54 pm

      A shame about Rome currently abandoning the faith under “pope” francis.But then that’s in accord with numerous catholic prophecies I believe[Fatima 1913,St Francis of Assisi’s prophecy etc}
      At least the Eastern orthodox have kept things going..

      I’m a Geek unorthodox agnostic Judeo-Christian myself:I don’t have a church…

      • Docent says

        Oct 21, 2018 at 11:27 pm

        Rome cannot abandon the faith even when its leaders fail to express it clearly and otherwise fail to teach it properly. Such is also not in accord with any prophecies that you are very likely confusing with prophecies about many people losing their faith, but Christ’s promise to be with the Church until the end of the world makes the alleged abandonment of Rome (aka the Catholic Church) an impossibility.

        The Eastern Orthodox faith remains in schism with Rome, based primarily on its failure to accept Christ’s establishment of Peter as the head of the Church, which is actually somewhat remarkable in light of the obvious singling out of Peter by Christ in the Gospels as the Rock upon which He built His Church and the commission He gave Peter…and no other apostle…to provide the leadership. It takes some serious lack of biblical understanding to reject what Christ did in renaming Simon to Peter and/or pretend his appointment as head of the Church was only for a short time and not meant to continue through his successors also sometimes referred to as Peter to drive home the meaning. And yet on such faulty understandings a schism also endures.

          P.S. To be clear, my “A reply to Robert” set forth above is directed to Rob Porter; not Robert Spencer.

    Without question the most interesting and informative historical video explanation of Islam available.
    This video should be mandatory public school curriculum in our children’s Word History textbooks instead of the 32 page Islamic chapter currently being used to intentionally mislead.
    I thank my lucky stars for Mr Spencer.

    Thanks again Robert and Glenn. Hope some people are starting to see what Islam is. Which is pure Evil.

    Thank you Glenn Beck!!!
    Robert Spencer is delivering an incredibly important message to our country. I view that endeavor as
    being patriotic. Thank you for assisting him and for providing such an excellent platform.
    You are both great.

    Are those microphones real, or are they computer generated images?

    It’s difficult to tell (if they’re real) where they’re positioned relative to each speaker.

    Glenn Beck asks superb questions and Robert Spencers answers them with tremendous polish and adroitness.

    It’s remarkable that Glenn Beck has ACTUALLY DONE HIS HOMEWORK and KNOWS a LOT about Islam.

    Why does anti-Islam people still defend Muslims?

    This video is fantastic – recommend that everyone watch the entire video.

    Interesting statement by Robert at around 1:11 regarding his work – and speaking honestly about Islam.

    “I’m still doing this but there’s no chance that I could get any other kind of work.”

    I guess, in other words, speaking the truth about Islam has to be your one and only full-time job. The problem is that most people could not make a living doing this.
