#1 Read this guy on Islam 20 years ago - he was very much an apologist at that time.

#2 All believing moslems who project modernity and a moderate stance are actually just apologists. They're the ones who wag their heads and say 'terrible shame' after their cousins have lopped your head off.

#4 Oh ok. My cold hatred and absolute ignorance gets the better of me. 🥳

#5 WTH! I have his sword and scimitar up there in front of on the bookshelf. Amid all those books I borrowed to look smart to visitors.

#7 I have both Sword and Scimitar and Defenders Of The West on my reference shelf. His dedication to rpimary sources and honest scholarship are impressive. VDH is a huge supporter of his academic rigor and candor. The failure to deal honestly with the Islam that lurks in the shadows that are not translated for taqqiya-based Western consumption is stunning. Religion of Peace is a sop to those who shy from hard truths about history and who has been the aggressor for centuries.

#8 “How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”
― Winston Churchill, The River War

#9 Let's face it. We have crippled and emasculated ourselves in the face of the i-slam with our progressive ideas about 'human rights', 'due process' and equality. Only by making exceptions and compromising our newfound faux godlike ness can we accomplish what King Saul was originally commanded to do. Kill kill kill them all. Maybe we stop at a remnant that agrees to convert. Atheism, Buddhism, rosicrucian, star wars larper... whatever.

But to deal with them we need what timid people call brutality.
