That Islamist terrorist, who planned to detonate a bomb at a Leeds hospital was found guilty this summer. Mohammed Farooq’s device was twice as powerful as the pressure cooker bombs that were used at the Boston Marathon. Yet all we hear about is the “threat of the “far right” not just in the UK, but even here. The big question is why these Islamists use tactics and strategies that intentionally target civilians. Why do they use barbaric attack methods that belong in the 12th Century instead of the 21st Century? And, as we move further down our current path, will the Islamist jihadis working for Iran who’ve infiltrated America through its Southern border be able to achieve their dream of following Mohammad’s example of causing mass civilian casualties and use a nuclear weapon attack on our country? It is critically important we understand the real Mohammad because of the use of his so-called examples in Islamic tradition and religious writings, whether they are true or not, because as you see, they are being used by today’s jihadists. My guest today is Robert Spencer. Robert is the author of the new book, Muhammad: A Critical Biography, which takes a detailed look at the Islamic traditions regarding Muhammad and lays bare their contradictions, inconsistences, and incoherence.
