From the Elizabeth Faraj Show: If you think jihad is ancient history, you're being lied to. In this urgent interview, Raymond Ibrahim, author of Sword and Scimitar, lays out the terrifying continuity between Islamic conquest in the past and what we're seeing now in the West. He points to grooming gangs in England, soaring crime in Sweden, and entire no-go zones in France as the modern face of the same ideology that once overran Jerusalem, Constantinople, and Spain. While our leaders obsess over climate change and diversity quotas, they're ignoring a 1,400-year war that never ended. Watch this before it's too late.

Raymond Ibrahim is an American author, translator, columnist, critic of Islam, and a former librarian. Today he joins the David Rutherford Show to discuss the true history of the Crusades, heroic stories of defending the Christian faith, and why young men today should study their history and reconnect with their strength for defending their values.

Many Americans appear to be angry that Crosses are giving way to Crescents, as Muslims transform more and more American churches into mosques. But is their anger being directed at the root source of this development?

I recently had an interesting walk-and-talk with philosopher Peter Boghossian. His description follows: In Budapest, US scholar Raymond Ibrahim and I hit the streets to confront the growing problem of Muslim immigration in Western countries and the cowardice of our leaders to be honest about the nature of the problems this creates. It is often claimed that Muslims and Christians have coexisted peacefully for centuries. Raymond dismantles this myth, tracing a history of Islamic doctrines that sow division. Beyond cultural practices like polygamy, he highlights laws targeting non-Muslims: The mandate to harbor hatred, even toward a Christian spouse, and the demand to convert or accept second-class status, paying tribute to Muslims.
