Real Talk with Marissa Streit | PragerU

Historian Raymond Ibrahim joins this NEW episode of Real Talk to discuss the history of jihad and the erasure of the Christian roots of the Middle East. Ibrahim argues that many modern narratives about Islamic conquest, the Crusades, and “peaceful coexistence” ignore primary historical sources. We also discuss modern atrocities, including the Islamic slaughter of Christians in Nigeria, the Muslim Brotherhood, Europe’s immigration crisis, and why he believes the West must stop viewing Islam through a naïve framework.
