On April 27, Donald Trump declared that "Christopher is going to make a major comeback! I am hereby reinstating Columbus Day." As discussed in this video, however, it's good to remember and reclaim Columbus -- but for reasons long forgotten if not suppressed. RaymondIbrahim.com

The strange hadith of the encounter between Muhammad and al-Zutt (convenient link provided by Jai & DoC: https://sunnah2.com/262 ) including the phrase "they began to ride the prophet of Allah" -- appears in several Islamic texts, chief among them: مسند الإمام أحمد بن حنبل (Musnad al-Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, v. 3, p. 399, hadith# 3788). تاريخ مدينة دماسكوس إبن هبات الله (Tarikh Medina Damascus, Ibn...

A far ranging discussion on the teachings and history of Islam vs Christianity. Generations of academic malfeasance and Hollywood propaganda have produced so much FAKE HISTORY concerning the relationship of these two civilizations — and all in order to demonize the West and whitewash Islam. This video — which offers a century by century breakdown of their long and troubled past, as well as their m...

A well-known book published by the Oxford University Press sarcastically claims that "God may indeed have wished it [the First Crusade to liberate Jerusalem], but there is certainly no evidence that the Christians of Jerusalem did, or that anything extraordinary was occurring to pilgrims there to prompt such a response at that moment in history." In this video, we expose this flagrant lie (publish...

Is the President of the United States a Defensor Fidei -- a "Defender of the Faith" -- like the Christian warrior-heroes of old? To answer this question, we examine Donald Trump's recent pro-Christian words and deeds -- but within the context of the times and circumstances -- and in comparison to his predecessors, particularly Joe Biden.

In an earlier video, we looked at why I'm convinced a Muhammad figure existed. Here we look at the claims against his existence -- and show their inherent weakness. RaymondIbrahim.com

Koran verses describing kuffar as "worst of beasts" ( 8:55 , 98:6); cattle, and just as dumb ( 47:12 , 8:65); "guilty," "unjust," and "criminal" ( 10:17 , 45:31 , 68:35; 39:32 ); "sworn enemies" of Muslims and Islam (4:101); "disliked" and "accursed" by Allah (2:89, 3:32 , 33:64). The Islamic deity is himself their declared enemy (2:98) who requires that "terror be cast into their hearts" (3:151)....

Like Saladin, "Alp Arslan" (real name: Muhammad bin Dawud Chaghri) gets way more credit for being "magnanimous" and "chivalrous" towards Christians than the facts suggest. RaymondIbrahim.com

Muslims are trying to "avenge" themselves against historical Christian victories over Islam -- from Tours to Vienna -- including through acts of terrorism. Meanwhile, the city council of Vienna has been more than happy to appease them in the name of combatting "Islamophobia." (With a special look at what Vienna has become since opening its doors to Islam.) RaymondIbrahim.com

Thanks to @NabiAsli1 for making this animated video based on a previous video on how Muhammad "deified" tribalism. RaymondIbrahim.com

In this clip from Cross Politic we discuss several important topics -- including how the Muslim world was once Westward looking, how Western retreat and self-defeat contributed to the rise of "radical Islam," and how Muslims in America are willing to work with anyone -- including the most contemptible infidels -- until they get in power, that is...

Islam appropriates and uses biblical figures -- from Abraham to Jesus -- in a manner that validates itself and demonizes Judaism and Christianity. Meanwhile, the mindless proponents of "Abrahamism" see this exploitative appropriation as a "good thing" that can help foster growth, trust, and cooperation. RaymondIbrahim.com

Despite its religious veneer, Islam can easily be defined and understood by one non-religious word: tribalism. The entire appeal of Muhammad's call to the Arabs of his time lay in its perfect compatibility with their tribal mores, three in particular: 1) loyalty to one's tribe; 2) enmity for other tribes; and 3) raids on the latter to enrich and empower the former.   Muhammad's "genius" was to rep...

What is nowadays referred to as "radical Islam," is, in fact, a byproduct of the "reformation" of Islam -- one that follows the same evolutionary pattern of Christianity's Protestant Reformation, including with a focus on "sola scriptura." Here we show how similar patterns of development can lead to vastly different outcomes -- freedom in the West, bondage under Islam. RaymondIbrahim.com

Was the prophet of Islam devoted to peace, tolerance, multiculturalism, and gender equality, as depicted in the book, 'Muhammad: Prophet of Peace amid the Clash of Empires,' by Juan Cole, a professor at the University of Michigan? RaymondIbrahim.com

One of the Biden Administration's very last acts in office was to release a "combat Islamophobia" document, which argues that Muslims in America have "routinely experienced hate ... due to baseless stereotypes." There are only two ways to understand this: either Americans are really dumb and/or evil, buying into and acting on any "baseless" trope thrown their way; or else what Muslims "routinely e...

An ode to common sense, and a look at the great lengths some go to fool those who ignore common sense.
