On January 11, 2024, Dennis Prager and I discuss my book The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism, ADL polling data on global antisemitism revealing the gross excess of Muslim Jew-hatred, and the Islamic theology that drives this pandemic of Muslim Jew-hatred.
PRCS says
Other than minor confusion @30:19 (confusing Muhammad/Maimonides), what a great interview.
I have of two of Bostom’s numerous books (The Legacy of Jihad, and The Legacy of ISLAMIC ANTISEMITISM [2008 issue]) and three by Warraq (Defending the West, WHAT THE KORAN REALLY SAYS, and WHY I AM NOT a Muslim.
Although each of them have been and remain typically tough reads for me, chapter 22 of Bostom’s Legacy of Antisemitism (On Killing a Jew [per Sirhindi]), which consists of but one sentence on one page makes the issue simple and clear:
“Wherever a Jew is killed, it is for the benefit of Islam.”
————–
Of the many Robert Spencer books in my collection, I think of “The Myth of Islamic Tolerance: How Islamic Law Treats Non-Muslims” as a companion to those two Bostom books.

Dennis said “Post Koran” verses referring to the Hadith or Sira He should be pulled up misleading.
Greg Hearn says
Misleading like it the Sunna has little relevance. Dennis should know this stuff back the front.
