Spain: Those Who Ignore History Will Be Doomed to Repeat It - Video

It took approximately 781 years for Spain to fully eliminate Muslim rule from the Iberian Peninsula, lasting from the initial invasion in 711 to the fall of Granada in 1492. And here we have Spain today, where once again, Muslims from Morocco are stirring up trouble...

Highly-respected scholar, Raymond Ibrahim, born in the United States to Egyptian Coptic Christian parents. dismantles one of the most widely repeated lies in modern academia - that five centuries of peaceful Muslim-Christian coexistence preceded the Crusades.

In reality, those same centuries saw the Islamic conquest of three-quarters of the Christian world, the destruction of tens of thousands of churches, and systematic violence against Christian pilgrims trying to reach the Holy Land. The First Crusade wasn’t unprovoked colonial aggression - it was a belated military response to centuries of jihad.

Ibrahim highlights the full arc of Islamic Spain - from the conquest of 711 to the final expulsion in 1492 - and reveals why the so-called "golden age" of Muslim-Christian-Jewish cooperation was largely a myth constructed from a single decade in centuries of near-constant warfare. He also unpacks the Spanish Inquisition's true origins: not Catholic fanaticism, but a direct response to mass taqiyya - hundreds of thousands of Muslims who converted to Christianity on paper while secretly teaching their children to hate and subvert the Christian state, backed by fatwas explicitly permitting the deception.

The conversation closes with a chilling parallel to today: a West that is militarily and economically dominant yet seemingly determined to repeat every historical mistake, importing populations that don't share its values and rewriting the history that once warned against it.
