In this NSA Disputatio talk, Raymond Ibrahim explores the historical context of Islam’s interaction with the West, challenging misconceptions about the Crusades and Islamic expansion. He discusses the destructive impact of early Islamic conquests on Christian territories, including atrocities committed against Christians in the 7th century and beyond. Ibrahim contrasts these historical realities with the modern narrative, emphasizing how European civilizations fought against Islamic aggression. He warns against the dangers of ignoring this history, highlighting the persistence of Islamic influence and the ongoing risks posed to Western civilization, drawing from historical sources and contemporary events.
