Robert Spencer (@jihadwatchRS) is the director of the invaluable counterjihadist website, Jihad Watch, and a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. He is the author of eighteen books, including the New York Times bestsellers The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) and The Truth About Muhammad. His latest book is The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS.

Mr. Spencer’s work sits at the nexus of a number of seminal issues, from national security and foreign policy, to identity politics and free speech, and theology and political philosophy. The battle being waged by Islamic supremacism against the West implicates all of these matters, and Mr. Spencer’s insights make him uniquely qualified to discuss them. 

I had him on the Big Ideas podcast to touch on everything from Islamic supremacist ideology and the goals, tactics and strategies its adherents use to impose it, to free speech and the deplatforming of counterjihadists like Spencer himself to the Sunni v. Shia battle in the Middle East and how we can actually triumph in the global jihad being waged against the West.

What We Discussed

  • Why the story of Muhammad is so integral to understanding Islamic supremacism, jihad and the Middle East today
  • Mecca vs. Medina in Islamic history, and its practical consequences
  • How Islam defines peace
  • Spencer’s view on the prospects of Islamic reformation, and separating political Islam from individual practice
  • Why former CIA Director John Brennan was wrong in his definition of “jihad”
  • Enforcement of Sharia speech codes in the West
  • Jihad Watch’s experience getting deplatformed from PayPal
  • The state of the Middle East and what U.S. national interest in the region requires from a policy perspective
  • What Spencer would advocate if he were named counterjihad czar
  • How to vet for Sharia supremacy
  • Defeating jihad, and much more

    Those violent and dangerous jihadists with their Islamic Supremacism with is the focus of their evil and irrational Islamic quest of the jihad for Islam don’t understand , at all, the Truth of God .Likewise they don’t understand that their delusional Islamic agenda is a false and lost cause because their Islamic goals are all fated for failure because those jihadist put their firm but blind and unquestioning faith on a false religion which is Islam, As just stated above ,twice, the jihadists just don’t understand As the Bible reads “None of the wicked will understand..” Daniel 12:10. [N.I.V.]
    For Islam’s denies of the Bible’s doctrines of and about the actual nature of Jesus is blasphemous. For Islam denies that Jesus is the Son of God. That is the Son of God the Father. Likewise, Islam denies the Jesus is God the Son. What blasphemy! For the Bible does, indeed, teach that Jesus is the Son of God, Matthew 3:16,17. First John 2:22 23. As well as hat Jesus is God the Son, Hebrews 1:8. First John 5:20. As a former Muslim who is now a Christian had explained “In the Son, the real issue of belief is certainty entering the Kingdom of heaven in the life and the full Deity of God lives in Him. He therefore is able to transfer people to the heavenly kingdom and unite them with God.” [1] The last three words, “them with God” meaning God the Father. The Bible confirms this about the Deity of the Son. The Bible teaches “For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form.” Colossians 2:9. Therefore, in the Light of the Bible, Islam is a false religion, Isaiah 8:20. John 14:6.

    As for the Islamic world female sex slaves, both girls and women, this brutal and callous affront, against all the is decent, good and right, started very early in the history of Islam with founder and prophet of Islam, Muhammad. As revealed in the book THE HISTORY OF JIHAD FROM MUHAMMAD TO ISIS by Robert Spencer. For after one of the early war victories of the followers of that specific time, the new religion of Islam, Muhammad received convenient revelation that his Muslim warriors have every right to own and use their female war captives. As page 32 of Mr. Spencer’s book reads “The Qur’an permitted them to have sexual intercourse with slaves girls captured in battle- ‘those captives whom your right hand possess.’ [4:24]” This book further explains and exposes on the exact same page that “The enslavement and rape women were taken for granted.” This Islamic wickedness of misogyny continued and still continues through time. As other scholars and authors on Islam do further expose that this horrific treatment of women into sexual slavery by their own families. Women are not viewed and equals in Islamic countries, they are thought of as property” and the “selling women and girls for prostitution is just the dehumanizing complement to forcing women and girls to cover their bodies and hair with veil.” [1] Likewise, a former Muslim who is now a Christian also revealed information about Islam and females sex slaves. For is exposed that “Slavery is cherished in the Qu ‘ran and non -Muslim girls and women are used a sex slaves. Also there is no protection for women in Islam; they are exposed to every kind of abuse on one hand, but on the other hand they are responsible for the temptation which afflicts men.” [2] Wow, all this cruel Islamic misogyny and not regard for human rights has its origin in the founder prophet of Islam, Muhammad. As shown by two Christian writers who in their book inform the reader that “Muhammad endorsed enslavement of all types…he endorsed sex –slavery as a gift from Allah, and enjoyed offering sex slaves as gifts…” So since Muhammad is view by Muslim as the perfect man and a great example it’s not surprise that, in time, Islam is enslaved more people than any other culture.” [3]
