Dutch freedom fighter Geert Wilders read my new book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, and had this to say:
Robert Spencer is one of my heroes. One of the most knowledgeable experts on Islam in the world. A giant. He has once again produced an invaluable and much needed book, a fantastic book, an absolute must-read for all freedom-loving people! Want to read the truth about Islam? Read this book. It depicts the terrible fate of the hundreds of millions of men, women and children who, from the 7th century until today, were massacred or enslaved by Islam. It is a fate which awaits us all if we are not vigilant.
Have you ordered yet? The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS is the first and only comprehensive narrative treatment of the entire phenomenon of jihad, from Spain to India, from Tel Aviv to New York City. The implications of this history for our foreign and domestic policies are enormous. Click here to order.

Geert Wilders on History of Jihad: “A fantastic book, an absolute must-read for all freedom-loving people!”
…………………
Great to hear this from Geert Wilders!
Papa Whiskey says
I heard Geert Wilders in NYC in 2010, both of us having shown up to oppose the Ground Zero mosque. A fine speech by a fine man! We will not submit!
revereridesagain says
Those were great rallies, and we accomplished what we set out to do with them! I still remember Wilders walking off with an escort of NYPD’s finest, his blond head sticking up in the middle because he is so tall. And here are two of my heroes together. If we escape domination by Sharia, it will be because of the efforts of such people as these.

Mr. Spencer ( if you read these comments) I just received my copy of The History of Jihad and I am recommending it all,over the Internet!
I hate to say it but it’s a truely sickning book……not your research and writing, but the sheer number of people,killed by Jihad…and all the violence that is integeral to Islam and expressed partially by jihad.
I had just finished your book Stealth Jihad when The History of Jihad arrived. I fear I desperately need a vacation after reading these books back to back! I am reeling from the horror of Islam and the threat it poses to Western Civilization . We are indeed in a war for our very survival as a people.
Well, I wil continue to recommend this website and your books to everyone who will listen ( and to a few that do so very reluctantly!) And I will continue to post quotes from your books as well as to urge people to read them .I apologize for the pseudonym, I hide behind another name as I don’t want “Allahu Akbar! To be the epitaph on my tombstone!
Ray Gowers says
Lilith. I empathize with your experience. I have created a sizable library of books by the likes of Robert Spencer, Geert Wilders, Bill Warner Pamela Geller et al. believing that knowledge is power. However, I sometimes need to chill with some comedy or escapist fare on video or with books. Best wishes and stay strong
Lilith Wept says
Thank you Ray! I love movies and reading historical novels, that’s my favorite relaxation! But I wouldn’t say No to a trip to the beach! Lol!
I have amassed a library similar to yours. The authors of these books and websites are what I consider 21 century warriors, fighting against Islam with words and education. May God keep,them safe and protect them from jihadi.
I believe we need to know our enemy. We need to understand Islam better than moslems do, certainly better than the average moslems does! Not so we can debate them,( too few would question their faith, most despite being presented with evidence the Koran and Mohammed are false,they persist in ther delusion) but so we know what their plans are, what their motivation is, so we can counter them. As you said, knowledge is power.
Check out the Facebook page Pegida USA Against Islamization. . Some excellent posts there…..and so far it hasn’t been shut down by the Facebook censors!
Another great anti Islam site is Bare Naked Islam , it publishes articles not seen anywhere else.
I also recommend a biography of Mohammed “ It’s All About Mohammed “ by FW Burleigh. Its an easy read, not stuffy. And fascinating in a “watching a train wreck” sort of way! It’s also the most unbiased biography of Mohammed I have read , and it has an excellent bibliography of the Islamic sources the author used. So if you doubt something, you can check the orginal,islamic source.
Read this book, then go back and read the Koran again. See if it doesn’t make understanding the Koran a little easier.,
I just wish we could get more people off the internet and out in the streets doing things like counter protesting any time moslems show up. We are thought of as a crazy fringe element now, small in number and unorganized and not United, a bunch of keyboard warriors. If we could get behind one or two National organizations, like Act for America or Pedgia USA , form a chapter in every small city and town in America, and then we could show the Goverment and moslems just how many of there are that want to rid America of Islam and what the will of We The People really Is ! A United protest against Islam.,
Best wishes to you, and a Happy Thanksgiving, stay strong and keep,the faith, my friend!

David Grisez says
This book, the History of Jihad from Muhammad to ISIS, is a good and thorough book on the subject of Jihad throughout human history. One big problem in warning people about the dangers of Islamic Jihad is that there are a lot of people who do not understand how a set of doctrine and beliefs, such as the such as Islam can have such a strong effect on the people who believe and follow it. Also a lot of people are ignorant of the teachings of Islamic Jihad. This book helps educate people about the problem of Islamic Jihad.
Anjuli Pandavar says
David,

One reason for this, I would suggest, is that we have nothing to compare it with today. All other religions have moved on, even if dragged kicking and screaming, but the relationship between a religion and its adherents evolves over the centuries. There might well have been a time when other religions inspired in their adherents the kind of craziness we observe in Muslims inspired by Islam, but that will have been centuries ago. But as comes across strongly from The History of Jihad from Muhammad to ISIS, Islam was utterly shocking even by 7th century standards. Only the wildest of wild men hold raping and pillaging to be a virtue and elevate it to a creed. And if perfection and finality are its self-image and terror its motive force, then it is quite conceivable that something that was already horrible in the 7th century would be utterly incomprehensible today, when other religions are very different to the 7th century selves. People today transpose their understanding of the relationship between, say, contemporary Christianity and contemporary Christians, onto Islam and Muslims and will fight tooth and nail to maintain that transposition, rather than make the effort to understand what the relationship between Islam and Muslims really is. And even if they have an inkling that what goes on between Islam and Muslims is different to what goes on between Christianity and Christians, they still have 1400 years of ground to cover to get to the kind of people who can be moved by a religion to do what Muslims routinely do today. I must agree with you 100%, David, that The History of Jihad from Muhammad to ISIS makes a major dent in this armour of denial.

Is Mr. Wilders THAT much taller than you Mr. Spencer? hahahaha! I love you both!

I have this book. Superbly researched and written. Highly recommend
Renny says
The first email of the day for me is always Jihad Watch and often I am totally amazed at the leaders of countries posted and their accommodations made to Islam and to Islamists—-changing their own society and now for the better.
Bless you, Robert and Geert and all men who speak the truth and protect our heritage. There are many of us who admire and support you.
Paul says
I have the Audible version, read by the author himself. Recommended!
WPM says
I think both Greet Wilders and Robert Spencer are both fighting the good fight for world freedom .You guys pick a terrible picture with that overly red lighted foreground and background the cropping the top of Mr. Wilders head , there must be some better pictures of the two of you together.
Agostino Armo Pellegrini says
It’s great to see these two giants together, can’t think of a better way to brighten a room. Love Geert Wilders, he’s an exceptional intellect and rare soul the world desperately needs right now. And Spencer will always been my #1 humanitarian against the evils of islam. To lose one of these guys would be like losing half the sun, they bring the light of reason and truth into the world and it saves lives. They’re my heroes and in my opinion doing god’s work helping and caring about others. Does it get any better than this? No, it doesn’t.
By the way, why does Spencer look so short? he looks like a “little person” next to Geert, lol!

Robert Spencer *is* short–but you are right; he is still a giant.

The ideology that motivates this savagery is not a religion and does not deserve the protection of any nation.
Lilith Wept says
I agree. We need to stop tolerating Islam as a religion. It is a political,ideology, a totalitarian theocracy that is bent on world domination…..Islam’s goal, stated very plainly by moslems and in the Koran is to invade every non Islamic country , and then to work toward maki gbthose country is Islamic countries…Until every country in the world is an Islamic country, with every person converted ( willingly or not, peacefully by force) into a Moslem.
That the West continues to protect Islam as a religion, is one of Islam’s best weapons against us. . It allows Islam to masquerade as a religion and from a legally protected position within our countries, and embedded in our society, to spread its virulent poison. Islam is using our laws , and freedoms against us, to dominate us. When will we wake up,to this fact and so something to stop it!
Allan Thomas says
Correct. It’s a political / religious dictatorship system rolled into one, rather like communism!
RonaldB says
I’m reading the “History of Jihad” for the second time. The first time around, the morass of Arab names, dates, campaigns and battles was too much to track and remember. Reading it a second time is very helpful for developing an overall perspective.
For example, going by Muslim accounts, the first twenty or thirty years after Muhammad’s death, set in 632, accounts for an amazing number of conquests, slaughters, and expansion. Within 70 years, Islam (or whatever Arab empire evolved into Islam) had taken over most of the Middle East, north Africa, and was expanding into Spain and Eastern Europe. The question of whether Muhammad actually existed, or whether Islam was an artificial construct meant to consolidate the conquests of an Arab warlord, is mentioned, but not pursued, as it is irrelevant.
A great video companion to the book, focusing on the Crusades and the totally defensive nature of the Christian response to Muslim aggression, is Molyneux “The Truth about the Crusades”.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ilFbbk9jw4
Spencer mentions several times how helpful traitorous non-Muslims are to Islamic expansion. One example is the fact that the first conquest and sacking of Constantinople was in 1210, and done by Crusaders from Catholic Europe who felt insufficiently welcomed and supported by the capital city of the Byzantine Empire. Constantinople never really recovered from this destruction.
Another fact brought out by Spencer is that Islam is the black hole of non-Islamic cultures. That is, fundamentalist Islam (the only real Islam) considers non-Islamic culture to be inferior and evil, so wherever Muslim conquests occur, there is a systematic destruction of all remnants and examples of the previous civilization. A black hole works in exactly the same way, sucking in all matter and completely obliterating all traces of the past. There were some exceptions, as for example, the archaeological museum maintained in Iraq under the sponsorship of the government of Saddam Hussein, but the unjustified conquest of Iraq by genius George W Bush, the shrub, dissolved all state security apparatus and allowed the destruction of the archaeological history, including Christian history, of Iraq. But, more typical of Islamic treatment of art and architecture is the example of the Banyan Buddhas in Afghanistan. The Taliban used anti-aircraft guns to make sure these historical and sacred objects of Buddhism were completely pulverized.

Walter Sieruk says
This book by Robert Spencer is not only interesting and informative but it also gave some information helped me compose this following essay.
The brutal cruel vicious violent and many times murderous jihad terror attacks in the different nations and cities of Europe by jihad –minded, committed and dangerous Muslims are wicked and destructive to both the people and infrastructure of Europe.
This has been further explained and exposed in the book by written by Robert Spencer, who is a scholar of both Islam and the different methods of Islam’s jihad. In Mr. Spencer’s book THE HISTORY OF JIHAD FOR MUHAMMAD TO ISIS on pages 367,368 the reader is informed that “The early twenty first century saw a sharp rise in jihad massacres perpetrated all over the West by individuals or small groups of Muslims : in London, Manchester, Paris, Toulouse, Nice, Amsterdam. Madrid ,Brussels, Berlin, Munich, Copenhagen, Malmo Stockholm, Turku ,in Finland , Moscow , St Petersburg , and Beslan ,among rather places… ”
It also should be noted that those jihadist or jihadists attacks in Western nations be the Muslim terrorists in the city of London, Manchester, Stockholm, Brussels , Paris, Nice, Berlin ,Madrid. Those jihad-minded Muslim terrorists who engage in those vicious Islamic terror attacks cannot be and will not be reasoned with. They will not respond to either logic or reason. They aren’t interested, at all, in reason or logic. So they have to be dealt with by a strong force of might. Either by the police or the military. For to even try to reason with a jihad-minded Muslim terrorist is just as much an act of futility as trying to teach algebra to a rabbit.
Lilith Wept says
I agree that most moslems can not be reasoned with or even engaged in a debate about religion. They are completely brainwashed into believing in Islam, in the Koran and Mohammed said, and what it says. Even when they are confronted with evidence that proves ( for any reasonably intelligent person) that something in Islam is false or at least doubtful.
But I still believe that we should be as knowledgeable about Islam , and Islamic History , not to debate or reason with moslems. We need to know our enemy and we need to make sure that the truth of every filthy, disgusting, horrible thing in Islam and in Islamic History is exposed, to show people over and over that this what Islam is and what Islam does.
We need to fight against the Islamic de writing of history to portray Islam as peaceful and tolerant. We need to expose the lies of Islamic utopias where all religions were treated equally as moslems claim their occupation of Spain was, or that Islam was not spread by the sword but was welcomed by the people of a country ( India) as liberators.
All this is cumulative…if we repeatedly write books such as Mr. Spencer has written, and we keep posting snippets of these books, as well as articles about the modern violence perpetrated by Islam then ( I hope and pray) we will educate and wake up ore people who will,realize that Islam is the religion of peace,it’s the religion of 1600 years of unrelenting hatred, violence and killing…..and 1600 years of Lying to futher the spread of this totalitarian theocracy , of lieing to trick and fool kuffar into a sense of false security about the motives of moslems so they can better perpetrate their hatred, violence and killing and 1600 years of lying so that moslems can fulfil the Koran’s command to spread Islam throughout the entire world.
tim gallagher says
Bravo, Robert and Geert. I believe people like Robert Spencer and Geert Wilders are heroes of our time who, in trying to wake up the slow learners in our societies to the danger that evil, barbaric Islam poses, are doing what is probably the most important work anyone can do in this age. They both put themselves in harm’s way doing the work they do. They are both very courageous people. Of course, there are other fighters against Islam’s evil such as David Wood, Pamela Geller and the ex-Muslims such as Ibn Warraq, Wafa Sultan and others, but it is a shame that there aren’t a lot more people like these people who are fighting the good fight against barbaric Islam. The world needs more people like Robert and Geert because there are so many appeasers of Islam and people who are just plain ignorant about Islam’s true nature.
