This is an outstanding, "Ultimate" interview with Raymond Ibrahim, author of 'Crucified Again - Exposing Islam's New War On Christians' , 'The Al Qaeda Reader' , and a new book scheduled for 2018, 'Sword and Scimitar'. Hanegraaf lets Raymond really explore the topics, which results in a riveting, wide-ranging discussion, with Raymond being able to stretch out and make a compelling presentation based on his many years of research. It's a long interview (more than 90 minutes), but well worth it. Raymond Ibrahim continues to elevate his stature as one of the great Christian scholars on the Islamic threat. St Vladimir's Seminary — You should invite this man and give him an honorary PhD and have him give a keynote address on Orthodoxy and Islam. Money quotes: "If Allah is God, then he's schizophrenic." "The early Christians... were scandalized when they finally got the Koran and Muhammad's biography, saying basically, ...

Egyptian President el-Sisi seems unable to protect Coptic Christians as Muslim attacks escalate. Egyptian churches are suspending all functions for remainder of July after warnings of more Islamic jihad attacks. The two reports below emphasize how dire, hopeless, and even betrayed our Coptic brothers and sisters must feel as this horrific wave of Islamic persecution continues to worsen. Even some of their bishops are "missing the point" per an incident related in the first story below: One bishop found himself being berated by the victims' relatives for saying, "farewell to martyrs of the homeland." The relatives interrupted the bishop, saying, "They are not martyrs of the homeland, they are martyrs of the Church, Father!"    Another man, Mina Lamei, told Al-Monitor that, 'Martyrdom does not mean to be killed in cold blood." He said the state should protect its citizens, "not congratulate them on their martyrdom." 1. Egypt's Copt...

“It’s harder than finding a needle in a haystack; it’s like finding a needle in a stack of needles.” Already in a city near you? Some recent arrests and news stories underscore how serious and widespread the Muslim jihad terror threat is, including from so-called 'refugees'.  Most recent news stories at top. — And this list only dates back two weeks!   Hawaii: Muslim US soldier swore allegiance to Islamic State, tried to pass documents to it Ohio: Muslim pleads guilty to aiding jihad terrorists and paying to have judge murdered New report: At least 61 refugees who came to US since 2002 engaged in terror activities Ohio: Muslim pleads guilty to attempt to join the Islamic State, “conduct violent jihad”   —   (Yes, this is a different case from the above Ohio Muslim jihadi!) Virginia: Muslim “obsessed with Islam” tried to join U.S. military to imitate Fort Hood jihad mass murderer Resident of New York’s reclusive “Islamberg” arrested with massive weapons stockpile Mi...

The symbolism of this photo op sends a powerful message of encouragement to a revitalized Christian Europe , plus a wake-up call to the chronically weak and sick Globalist EU, and a blunt warning to the militant Muslim world. Coincidence? Polish Government Seats Trump Beside Painting of Polish King Famed For Routing Islam from Europe by Oliver J.J. Lane, Breitbart News , July 6, 2017: A Portrait of King Jan Sobieski III hangs over President Trump’s right shoulder, Thursday morning / AP IMAGES President Donald Trump’s first photo-call in Poland after his arrival in Air Force One was with President Andrzej Duda and saw him sat beside an oil painting of a prominent figure in Polish history and folklore — the 17th-century king who kicked Islam out of Central Europe and is remembered as “the Hammer of the Turks”. Warsaw’s Royal Palace, where the meeting took place — lavishly reconstructed after it was dynamited by Nazi German troops during the Second World War — benefits from a surfeit of g...

"Pakistan goes from 23 per cent [non-Muslim], which is almost a quarter of its population, to three per cent today. I call it a ‘drip drip genocide’, because it’s the most dangerous kind of wiping out of religious communities… It doesn’t happen in one day. It doesn’t happen over a few months. Little by little by little, laws and institutions and bureaucracies and penal codes, textbooks that malign other communities, until you come to the point of having this sort of jihadi culture that is running rampant.” 'Drip-Drip' Genocide: Muslim Persecution of Christians, February, 2017 by Raymond Ibrahim , Gatestone Institute, May 29, 2017: Acquitted: Muslim destruction of Joseph Colony, a Christian region, in Pakistan, 2013 The Islamic State is at it again. More stories of atrocities against Christians continued to surface. In one, a Christian man, Meghrik, said the bus in which he was riding in Syria was stopped at what turned out to be an ISIS checkpoint. Three men dressed in...

Canada is now blatantly implementing Sharia law, trying to force a Christian man to pay jizya to his former Muslim tenants. Canada is in essence behaving like a conquered, dhimmi state, extracting jizya from its citizens to appease its Islamic masters, who rank highest in the Canadian Human Rights Hierarchy. Two reports below, the first from Michele Mandel at the Toronto Sun (which documents the facts of the case), the second from Faith Goldy at Rebel Media. Read all the way to the end for a link to find out how you can help John Alabi's legal fees to fight this form of stealth jihad. It appears the case may have turned on a remark Alabi allegedly made on Facebook. The Canadian Thought Crime Human Rights Commission submits to Sharia Law and Islam.

And Islam = submission and slavery, when it doesn't equal beheadings and death. What would Patrick Henry say today, seeing the West respond to Islamic jihad attacks with candles and teddy bears ? So, for America's Independence Day, here are the closing paragraphs of Patrick Henry's ' Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death'  speech, with a few edits to suit our own darkening days: There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard at every TSA security checkpoint, and in the accusations of 'Islamophobia'! The war is inevitable and let it come! I repeat it, sir, let it come.  It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, [Islam means] "Peace, Peace," but there is no peace. The war is actually begun!  The next gale that sweeps from the Middle East will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wi...

"Our leaders cannot comprehend what is going on, either when a whole Western civilization loses its faith and moral standards or when Islam reawakens to the implications of its own faith and its vision of world conquest..." "Realism means that we can and should call what happens by its proper name. It also means that, if we cannot or will not make this proper naming, we are not realistic. We will inevitably suffer the consequences of our failure to state the truth of what is there." "The Muslim protagonists of today realize how close they were several times in the past to conquering Europe as the next step in world conquest. What they see today is a very realistic opportunity to succeed where their ancestors failed." Realism and Islam— To see reality in its fullest dimensions... by Rev. James V. Schall, S.J., Catholic World Report , April 17, 2016: I. Political realism, long associated with Augustine, constrains us to consider what Machiavelli later recomm...

"Instead of helping the ancient Antioch Church and its believers continue to survive and keep their 2,000-year-old Christian traditions alive, some evangelicals from the West are doing 'the opposite' and are coming to Syria to 'steal our faithful'.” — Archimandrite Alexi Chehadeh I have written about this deplorable tendency towards mercenary proselytism on the part of many American Protestant and Evangelical Christians, many of whom do not consider 'Eastern' Christians to be authentic Christians: Islam's Hatred of Holy Icons — and what that means for Persecuted Eastern Christians Christians in the Middle East: Martyred by Muslims in their Homeland, Disdained by Christians in America Evangelicals Are Helping ‘Destroy’ the Syrian Orthodox Church, Antiochian Priest Says (Interview) by Samuel Smith, The Christian Post via Pravmir : Archimandrite Alexi Chehadeh, the director-general of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate af Antioch and All the East's Depart...

In an interview... Jesuit Father Henri Boulad explains why he believes Islamist terrorists are applying what their religion teaches them, and why the Church fails to address this because she has fallen prey to a leftist ideology that is destroying the West. The below article's title resonates with a powerful quote from New Martyr Fr Daniil Sysoev of Moscow, who was killed by Muslims for preaching against Islam and converting some eighty of them to Orthodox Christianity: "One must respect mistaken people but not their mistakes. Truth is one, that which contradicts and negates truth is a lie, and respect for a lie is contempt for the truth."  Over at Jihad Watch, Christine Douglass-Williams, in her introduction to another report based on Fr Boulad's interview and writings, provides some important context: Boulad also accepted Hungarian citizenship , in a recent affirmation of Hungarian leader Viktor Orban’s restrictive immigration policy of keeping out Muslim migrants...
