A Muslim Conquest of Britain? (with Raymond Ibrahim) 7/8/26 · The Catholic Current

• 0:00
  Hey friends, we have a special treat for you today.
• 0:03
  We're doing a video interview with Raymond Ibrahim, a very distinguished scholar and
• 0:07
  author.
• 0:08
  He's very well up to date on what's going on with Islam and the West and the history
• 0:13
  of Islam and the West, a history that a lot of people I think would prefer to sweep under
• 0:17
  the rug.
• 0:18
  I've interviewed him many times.
• 0:20
  I've read a lot of his work, and I'm happy to be on video with him again.
• 0:24
  Raymond Ibrahim, welcome back to The Catholic Current.
• 0:26
  Hi, Fr.
• 0:27
  McTeague.
• 0:28
  Great to be with you again.
• 0:29
  Raymond, I want to give our listeners a bit of a warning here.
• 0:32
  We're going to be talking about a mature and painful topic.
• 0:36
  Listener discretion is advised, and if you're listening with young ears in your company,
• 0:41
  you might want to wait until later.
• 0:43
  We've got to talk about what I have called on the air as the Muslim rape war against
• 0:49
  Britain.
• 0:50
  I've read the recent report that came out from a member of parliament detailing horrifying
• 0:58
  sexual abuse of young British girls, primarily because they were Christian and white.
• 1:04
  For at least 50 years, there's at least 250,000 well-identified victims.
• 1:10
  The numbers are almost certainly worse.
• 1:13
  I've talked about this on the air.
• 1:15
  I've written about it.
• 1:17
  I'm appalled.
• 1:18
  I'm shaken by it.
• 1:20
  You've looked at it too.
• 1:21
  What's your initial thoughts on the report?
• 1:23
  Well, much like you just characterized it.
• 1:27
  On the one hand, it's extremely shocking that it went on.
• 1:29
  It's actually, I think, the first date of a recorded Pakistani-slash-Muslim grooming
• 1:35
  gang, as they called it, goes to 1955.
• 1:37
  So we're talking almost 80 years.
• 1:40
  The 55-record mark or 60-year mark, that's when it was already an epidemic.
• 1:47
  But it really traces far back.
• 1:50
  It just makes perfect sense to me in many ways.
• 1:52
  If you know anything about Muslim countries and how they see non-Muslim women, especially
• 1:59
  Pakistan, this is par for the course.
• 2:01
  I write about the persecution of Christians throughout the Islamic world.
• 2:06
  Every single week, several stories come out of Pakistan and other Muslim countries of
• 2:11
  how they just prey on the Christian women, forcibly convert them, gang-rape them.
• 2:16
  And then the judges and the police side with the Muslims.
• 2:20
  Muslims say things like, literally, I have verbatim quotes about how Christian women
• 2:25
  are there just for sex.
• 2:27
  So you bring that sort of mentality and you transplant it into the Western world, and
• 2:34
  the women there are already sort of taught to be promiscuous.
• 2:37
  What do you think is going to happen?
• 2:39
  It's exactly what we're seeing.
• 2:41
  It's what happens in Pakistan, but times 10, because it's being facilitated here in the
• 2:46
  West itself.
• 2:47
  So none of this is shocking.
• 2:48
  It's exactly what one would expect would happen.
• 2:51
  No, I'm sure you've heard too that this wasn't really real Islam, and that it's part of a
• 2:58
  much larger and more complex issue, and that it would be racist or some sort of phobia
• 3:07
  to speak of this as primarily a Muslim or Pakistani thing in Britain.
• 3:12
  Maybe we can have a conversation another time about other countries like Sweden and France
• 3:17
  and Italy and Germany and so on.
• 3:20
  But I do have in hand a copy of a report issued in 2014 from the Muslim Council of Britain,
• 3:27
  and it was a symposium on safeguarding everybody's children.
• 3:31
  And I want to read a line to you from the Secretary General at the time.
• 3:38
  And he says, as a representative body, it was our responsibility to set the record straight.
• 3:46
  It was not about apologizing on behalf of the community, but to clearly state that nothing
• 3:51
  in our faith or culture condones such despicable activities, just as there is nothing in the
• 3:57
  Christian faith that condones a child abuse revealed in the case of celebrities like Jimmy
• 4:02
  Seville or politicians like Cyril Smith.
• 4:05
  And then he adds, Islam's zero tolerance on sexual abuse is clear.
• 4:13
  What's your response to that?
• 4:15
  You know Islam.
• 4:16
  You know the historical records.
• 4:17
  You follow this every day.
• 4:19
  You tell me, what do you make of that report?
• 4:22
  Well, there's three ways to respond to what he said.
• 4:25
  We can look at what Islam does doctrinally, what it teaches.
• 4:27
  We can see how Islam behavior has manifested itself historically, and we can see how it
• 4:33
  is going on today throughout the world, not just Britain, in which case Britain's not
• 4:38
  an aberration because they're trying to make, I think, that argument.
• 4:42
  Also doctrinally, you know, humanity is classified according to if they're believers or not,
• 4:47
  if they're Muslims or not.
• 4:48
  And if you're a Khaifah, there's different names in Arabic, Khaifah, Mushrik, et cetera.
• 4:53
  You are an enemy by default, and you need to be subject to-
• 4:56
  You're an infidel.
• 4:57
  You're an infidel, yeah.
• 4:58
  That's the common translation in English.
• 5:00
  But actually the Arabic word carries so many worse pejoratives and connotations than the
• 5:05
  word infidel in English.
• 5:07
  But I mean, for a Muslim to hear the word Khaifah or other words, Mushrik, they're all
• 5:13
  the same, it basically means this person's your enemy and you have to hate them, and
• 5:18
  you have to suppress and subjugate them somehow.
• 5:21
  And it's really, they do a disservice in the Quran translations, English translations,
• 5:25
  because they just translate that word into a disbeliever or a nonbeliever.
• 5:29
  And it sounds eugenic and neutral.
• 5:30
  It's not.
• 5:31
  It means an enemy that you have to war against, okay?
• 5:35
  So that's the first point, is that every non-Muslim from a strictly Islamic point of
• 5:39
  view is an enemy, okay, that needs to- The Quran talks about hating them, subjugating
• 5:46
  them, all sorts of things that are bad, and waging jihad, of course.
• 5:51
  And then in the context of that, you can enslave, for sexual purposes, women.
• 5:58
  This is in the Quran.
• 5:59
  Muhammad did it.
• 6:00
  All the early pious Muslim leaders in Caliphs and Sultans throughout history did it.
• 6:06
  Slavery was a standard norm up until, I think until the 70s, Saudi Arabia was doing it,
• 6:11
  until it was forcibly stopped, okay?
• 6:13
  And all throughout the Islamic world, it was stopped, slavery, including concubinage, thanks
• 6:18
  to colonial pressure in the 19th century and the 20th century, okay?
• 6:22
  So it's part of the doctrine.
• 6:24
  I think Quran 4.3 is one of the many verses that talks about a man can have four wives
• 6:29
  or can sleep with four wives, and whatever his right hand possesses, and that's known
• 6:35
  as a non-Muslim infidel woman who's been captured in the context of jihad, okay?
• 6:42
  So historically, very, very common, absolutely common, the slavery, and especially, and I've
• 6:49
  covered this a lot, slavery of white women, European women.
• 6:53
  There was apparently a premium on them, and this even goes back to Muhammad himself, where
• 6:58
  in a Hadith, and I've quoted it several times, he tries to entice and beguile his followers
• 7:03
  to wage war on the Eastern Roman Empire, the Byzantines at the time, and he says, don't
• 7:08
  you want the women of yellow, okay, which is a linguistic curiosity, but a lot of people
• 7:14
  think it means fair hair, fair skin, and that goes all the way throughout history.
• 7:19
  The Abbasid Caliphate, the entire Viking phenomenon, and it's, you know, the attacks on coastal
• 7:25
  European nations, was one of the main reasons was to get white slaves and sell it to the
• 7:30
  Abbasids who, again, paid top dollar for them, and this just goes on and on and on all throughout
• 7:34
  history, you know, the Barbary War, the Barbary slave trade of millions of Europeans that
• 7:40
  went all the way to Iceland, again, sexually enslaved, et cetera.
• 7:45
  So that's the history, that's the doctrine, and then you fast forward to today, well,
• 7:50
  you're bringing this very same mentality, and you're putting it in, and now it's much
• 7:54
  worse, because now, again, it's such a bad cultural combination, because in the West,
• 7:58
  you have promiscuity, free love, and all that sort of thing, and Muslims, there's also been
• 8:04
  a stereotype amongst Muslims that goes all the way back to Abbasid times, where they
• 8:09
  say that it's kind of like this weird fantasy that European women are promiscuous by nature,
• 8:15
  and for that reason, they should be raped, and this comes out very frequently, I have
• 8:20
  it documented in my books, like Sword and Scimitar.
• 8:23
  So you take that mentality, and you put it and transplant it in Western nations, and
• 8:27
  they see women scantily clad, walking about, acting promiscuous, and it just all validates
• 8:33
  it, and that whole entire, you know, phenomenon just activates, and they prey on them, they
• 8:39
  groom them, they sexually enslave them, they, it's also interesting, because you read the
• 8:44
  report, and I did too, when you look at the early, I was telling you how there's a sort
• 8:49
  of degrading mentality, they say all Western women, even nuns, are by nature harlots who
• 8:54
  are just promiscuous.
• 8:56
  This comes out all throughout the report, where the Muslims, really, the way they talk
• 9:00
  about these girls, they, in very dehumanizing language, they call them, you know, you're
• 9:06
  an animal, you're just, you just exist for sex, et cetera, et cetera, so this has a very
• 9:12
  long history, and so when I see it, all I see is absolute and perfect continuity with
• 9:17
  the doctrine, with the history, and it's important to note also, because a lot of people
• 9:21
  are saying, well, maybe this is a Pakistani thing, and I even early on said this is very
• 9:25
  prevalent in Pakistan with Christians, but it's interesting, because if you leave Britain,
• 9:30
  what you see in Britain, of course, is, it has a large Muslim population, but the majority
• 9:34
  are Pakistanis and Indians, Bangladeshis, if you go to other countries in Europe that
• 9:39
  are having the same problem, like Sweden, it's not Pakistanis, because there's not a
• 9:44
  lot of Pakistanis, it's actually Arabs and Syrians, and you go in other European countries,
• 9:49
  and you find it's, again, others, it's not Pakistanis, so it's very clearly an Islamic
• 9:54
  thing, and, but as you indicated earlier, you know, people are too terrified of the
• 10:00
  racist suggestion, or, you know, this is Islamophobic to even touch on this, so they're
• 10:05
  more than happy to sacrifice a quarter million girls rather than be called names.
• 10:10
  See, the racist name, I don't understand, because, you know, Islam is not a race,
• 10:17
  you know, it's a religion, it's a political ideology, it's not a race, so that confuses
• 10:24
  me as well, so the bottom line, that 2014 report from the Muslim Council of Britain,
• 10:28
  when they talk about the zero tolerance of sexual abuse in Islam, in your view, to summarize,
• 10:36
  the record shows that's simply not true, is that correct?
• 10:40
  It's absolutely not true, this is, it's, if the prophet of Islam, who's extolled as the
• 10:46
  most perfect and complete man, and you have an example, that's what the Quran says, and
• 10:50
  the prophet Muhammad had sex slaves, there's even one anecdote, I forget her name, but
• 10:57
  he killed, you know, he took one woman from her husband, and her father, and tortured
• 11:01
  her father and husband to death, or had them tortured to death, and this woman, at one
• 11:08
  point she even says, I hated this man more than anyone else, and this is his quote-unquote
• 11:13
  wife, right, but that, above and beyond wives, he had concubines, formal sexual slaves, and
• 11:19
  again, it's all throughout the Quran, every, virtually every caliph and sultan, especially
• 11:24
  in the Ottomans, in Cordoba, in Spain, especially as the years went by, they were almost entirely
• 11:31
  non-Arab, and they were purely Spaniard, or Greek, in the Ottomans, because every single
• 11:37
  mom was a sex slave, a European sex slave, you know, and so it kept diluting and diluting,
• 11:42
  so the last Umayyad caliph was something like 0.01% Arab.
• 11:48
  Now, it also strains credulity to me, I mean, England is a relatively small country, geographically,
• 11:53
  I mean, it's not Canada, so the idea that hundreds of thousands of girls could have
• 11:59
  been abused over 50, 60 years, did nobody in the Muslim community know?
• 12:06
  Were all the imams taken by surprise? All the Muslims in law enforcement, higher education,
• 12:13
  mental health, medical services, none of them knew? Is this what we're being asked to believe?
• 12:20
  One of the absolute worst places is London and the adjoining vicinities that this was happening,
• 12:24
  and of course, the mayor there, Sadiq Khan, who's Pakistani, when this was brought up,
• 12:30
  over the years, he would mock it and dismiss it, okay? And now we know the extent of it,
• 12:35
  and just how well-documented and how real this is. This is something, it was kind of like the
• 12:39
  dirty secret that everybody knows. Everybody knows it. And he acted like, no, no, what are
• 12:44
  you talking about? And until finally, you know, we got this very comprehensive report, and he's still,
• 12:50
  of course, in denial. No, this has nothing to do with, oh, these are just bad actors, and,
• 12:55
  you know, and you can't castigate an entire religion, and et cetera, et cetera. Well,
• 13:00
  again, like I said, if you leave the current context and you just look at the Islamic world
• 13:05
  today, it's happening, okay? Slavery is back big time in Africa, especially sex slavery,
• 13:12
  and who's doing it? It's Muslims, okay? So this is an Islamic thing. It only ever stopped
• 13:17
  because back when Western European Christian powers still had a spine in the colonial era,
• 13:23
  they actually exerted pressure and forced the Islamic world to stop it. Now, as the West
• 13:27
  withdraws in all ways, you're seeing it come back. It's coming back all around the world,
• 13:32
  and it's coming back even in the West. Right, right. Now, I want to shift a
• 13:37
  little bit and talk about the people who turned a blind eye. I know in the secular West,
• 13:44
  the very, very worst thing you can be called is racist, and then maybe second or third would be
• 13:54
  to be an Islamophobe or any other kind of phobe. I think it's actually wise and prudent to be
• 14:00
  afraid of things that can really hurt you. So, again, looking at the report, law enforcement,
• 14:06
  medicine, mental health, education was not only just a blind eye, but oftentimes facilitated as
• 14:15
  well. What happened in the West, what happened in former Christendom that you could spend an entire
• 14:26
  career, 20, 30 years in law enforcement or medicine and education, and know that minor girls
• 14:35
  were being preyed on by gangs of men, and not only do nothing but vilify the victims and those
• 14:44
  who tried to defend them, and then also teach your colleagues, those whom you're mentoring,
• 14:51
  to do the same? What died in the Western soul that this could happen for so long?
• 15:00
  I mean, there's many ways to try to unpack this, but to be succinct,
• 15:03
  it's just the turning away from God, reason, logic, and truth, and just an embracement of
• 15:08
  nihilism, and all I care about is how I look, and that I don't get called the bad name, I don't get
• 15:14
  called racist, and that my job goes smoothly, and it's selfishness, and who cares about these people
• 15:20
  as long as we're all in cahoots? And then there's another element that I didn't see it in the report,
• 15:25
  maybe it was, but that I always wonder, which is, okay, well, Britain has a large Muslim population,
• 15:31
  large Pakistani population, a lot of them are in positions of power, so to what extent were the
• 15:37
  turning of the blind eye, and the police who act this way, and the authorities, to what extent were
• 15:42
  they actually Muslims and Pakistanis who were actually facilitating it, or at the very least,
• 15:46
  trying not to be embarrassed about it, and trying to suppress it? So you probably had a lot of that
• 15:51
  going on, you probably had a lot of native whites who were just freaked out and too terrified of
• 15:55
  touching this because of how they'll look bad, and like I said, it's much better to just sacrifice
• 16:00
  these girls, who cares about them, I have a career, so that's the civilization that the West is now,
• 16:06
  it's not, it has no honor, it has no, you know, self-respect, including for its own daughters,
• 16:13
  it's happy to just sell them, sacrifice them for, you know, its own gain and reputation.
• 16:20
  I have a dear, I lived in London for two years to study many years ago, and I have a dear friend
• 16:24
  there who is originally Welsh, lived in London for many years, and has since relocated to a small
• 16:29
  island off of Scotland, because he said London has become unlivable, and he says, father, you're an
• 16:34
  American, you're underestimating the role of the class system in Britain. Nearly all of these girls
• 16:43
  were from working class, from poor, these were not Oxbridge graduates, these were not the daughters
• 16:50
  and granddaughters of nobility, so they were expendable, and I find that horrifying, and also,
• 16:59
  isn't it the case, now it was maybe say different in the 70s, but certainly now, Muslims in Britain
• 17:06
  tend to vote in blocks, and they tend to vote for the Labour Party, did the Labour Party make a
• 17:14
  calculation that to have a reliable Muslim voting block was worth the sacrifice?
• 17:20
  I have no doubt that that's the way their brain would work, absolutely, and you know, the voting
• 17:27
  block thing is another interesting point, it just shows you what a clash you have there of
• 17:32
  civilizations, where Brits are conditioned, you know, if I tell you, oh, I vote for this guy because
• 17:38
  he's my skin color and my religion, that's considered horrible, right? Imagine if whites
• 17:43
  said, I only vote for the white guy, well, that's, that's Hitlerian, but that's what all the Muslims
• 17:47
  do in Britain, openly, and they say it, oh, we're voting for the Muslim guy because he has my back,
• 17:52
  he's got what's good for me, not what's good for society, or for all of us, and it's so open,
• 17:58
  and like you said, of course, Labour and these other groups are just trying to curry Muslim
• 18:02
  favour, and they're expendable as well, when the time comes, you know, they'll, these leftist
• 18:09
  elements always go out of their way to curry favour with Muslims, and try to win them over, and you
• 18:15
  know, be their servants until they're no longer needed, and they're also dispensed with as well,
• 18:21
  so the overall though, really, the climate in countries like Britain is just, to me, surreal,
• 18:26
  and it's only because people are so used to it, you know, they're born into it, this is all they
• 18:32
  know, if you could like, objectively just transcend it, and just look at it as a nation,
• 18:36
  it's beyond, it's surreal doesn't do it justice, okay, a nation that was once so powerful and
• 18:43
  glorious, and now it's bringing in an element that's raping its children, and it does nothing
• 18:49
  but sit around, and watch, and complain, and go put a hashtag, I mean, it's just completely done,
• 18:57
  I don't see any, I honestly see no hope for it, to be perfectly blunt with you, and I know they
• 19:02
  have a lot of, oh, this party, that party, no, this has been one slow degradation, and I think
• 19:08
  it's just going to continue. Well, I'm afraid you're right, because, you know, along the way,
• 19:13
  there was a horrifying case last fall, of a white college student being stabbed, I believe, by a
• 19:22
  Sikh, and the police arrested the young white man, bleeding out, there was another video case
• 19:29
  recently, just a few days ago, I believed were a number of, how should we call them,
• 19:35
  cultural enrichers, were beating the bejabbers, out of a young white boy, and then the police
• 19:41
  grabbed him, and he thought the police were assaulting him, so he pushed back, so he got
• 19:45
  arrested, and the police asked everyone not to spread the video around, so it seems that
• 19:54
  police and institutions are being trained to facilitate this kind of abuse, you know,
• 20:03
  in the report that I read from Parliament, the complaining mother said to the school,
• 20:09
  I think the abusing men were Asian, and the teacher said, don't call them Asian, that's
• 20:16
  racist, you should just be glad that your daughter's learning about another culture. I want
• 20:21
  to talk about the voting thing for just a moment. I voted recently, last month, in the United States,
• 20:28
  and the polling places are clearly demarcated, and absolutely no one is allowed, within hundreds
• 20:35
  of feet, to pass out literature, make a speech, influence the voter in any way, but apparently,
• 20:41
  in Britain, there's something called family voting, where Muslim men will bring in a wife
• 20:46
  or two, or three, and in the polling place, instruct them how to vote. Now, I don't know
• 20:54
  if that's illegal in Britain or not, I don't think it's a gold star in the British voting system,
• 21:00
  but if that happened with a white family, even if a white man brought only, if a native Briton
• 21:06
  only brought just one wife with him, and in full Christian modesty, surely he would be arrested
• 21:12
  or vilified, wouldn't he? Absolutely. This is, again, the problem, you know, Western society,
• 21:17
  especially secular civic society, has become so, you know, very delicate, but it's something that
• 21:25
  you have to be a delicate person to actually do it, but then you bring an element that just
• 21:30
  exploits the heck out of it, okay, and just for its own gain, and you have to sit back and watch it,
• 21:35
  and do nothing, because again, you're crippled by these words, racist, or Islamophobic, or whatever,
• 21:41
  okay, and like you said, that young man, I think, Henry Nowak, yeah, he was, it was much worse to
• 21:46
  the police that he might have said something, okay, out of his mouth, than the fact that he
• 21:50
  was stabbed, okay, right, that's the culture now of, that's governing Britain, okay, that is insane,
• 21:57
  that it's become like a sacrament to them, these words, racism, you know, multiculturalism,
• 22:04
  they're magic words, yeah, and if you say the magic words, everything is excused, or forgiven.
• 22:10
  Now, I said, some of my best friends are British, I've lived there as an American, I trace the roots
• 22:17
  of America to Britain, you know, and it's part of Western civilization, it's part of Christendom,
• 22:26
  you know, Britain used to be so Catholic, it was referred to as Our Lady's Dowry, I'd like to see
• 22:34
  Britain turn around, and put a stop to this, and reclaim its Christian identity, but now,
• 22:42
  the King, who used to be known as Defender of the Faith, says that he's Defender of Faith,
• 22:48
  unspecified, and is just, wants to make a safe place for multiculturalism,
• 22:55
  what does Britain need to do to begin to turn this around? In a word, repent, metanoe,
• 23:05
  in the Greek term, you know, have a change of mind, that's what the word literally means,
• 23:10
  a complete change of mind, and a change of gear, and get back to sanity, and being normal,
• 23:17
  and objective, and rational, that's what they need to do, all of which, in my mind, is becoming
• 23:24
  Christian again, actually, that's one with it, and yeah, the point about the King, you know,
• 23:30
  that just seals it right there, the King, the monarchy, was so interwovenly connected with
• 23:36
  Christianity, and he goes, you know, from Defender of the Faith, to Defender of the Faiths,
• 23:42
  plural, yeah, he says he's the protector of faith in the multi-faith nation, well, you know,
• 23:47
  if a faith, once a faith becomes plural, then, in other words, to put it simply, okay, if all
• 23:54
  faiths are equal, then no faith is true, and that's really what he's saying now, it made sense
• 23:59
  when he was a Defender of the Faith, you can be a Defender of the Faith in Britain, Christianity,
• 24:03
  and allow people to have whatever faith they want, that's one thing, but if you're defending
• 24:07
  all the faiths, then you are implicitly saying they are all equal, and if they're all equal,
• 24:11
  then none of them are true, because they all contradict each other, to one degree or another,
• 24:16
  especially Islam, so, and we all know he made this change, especially for Islam,
• 24:22
  Islam is the one religion that condemns the gospel message, that says Jesus is not the son of God,
• 24:27
  he was not crucified, he wasn't killed, and he wasn't resurrected, and you bring that in,
• 24:32
  and now you're going to defend it equally with Christianity, yeah, I don't think so, I think
• 24:36
  actually, this is another example of how Britain, it will again become a Defender of the Faith,
• 24:42
  it just won't be Christianity, it'll be something else, it'll be Islam. Well, I, and I have to
• 24:47
  wonder too, how well informed his majesty is about how the religion of peace treats homosexuals,
• 24:54
  for example, so, but that's, that's another topic for, for another time, I know that
• 24:59
  outgoing Prime Minister Keir Starmer, when he worked for Crown Prosecution, so basically he was
• 25:04
  kind of an Attorney General, he sent as many as 13,000 strongly worded letters to men who had
• 25:13
  been arrested for raping British girls, and he, he very sternly asks them not to do it again,
• 25:21
  and he's the Prime Minister, and his likely successor apparently has absolutely no interest
• 25:31
  in doing anything in terms of immigration, we've only got about five minutes left, can we talk
• 25:36
  about immigration policy and the present crisis of Britain, I would say they're not unrelated,
• 25:42
  what do you say? Well, of course not related, if you look at it, again, all these problems,
• 25:48
  all you have to do is look at another European country that shares similar dynamics with,
• 25:52
  let's say Britain, and, but it doesn't have the migrants and the Muslims, and you're going to
• 25:56
  find none of this is happening, okay, I was in Hungary for a while, yeah, Hungary and Poland,
• 26:03
  they are against having Muslim migrants, these issues are not happening, there is no
• 26:07
  rape gangs going on, but then I look at other countries that do have a large Muslim population,
• 26:12
  and I see the same dynamics, Sweden, Germany, remember in Germany a few years ago there was that
• 26:18
  rape festival on New Year's Eve in Cologne, where Muslims were, okay, and all throughout,
• 26:24
  so wherever you have this large Muslim populations in Europe, it's the same exact phenomenon is
• 26:30
  occurring, so how can we see it in the doctrine, see it in the history, see it in the Islamic world,
• 26:37
  what's happening to Christians and other non-Muslim minorities, and then see it in the West,
• 26:41
  and still plug our ears and say, no, no, it's not what you think it is, that's the problem,
• 26:45
  so when you ask me what needs to change, that, you need to stop being stupid.
• 26:49
  Well, yes, and I think part of not being stupid is to have our, we need to have a cultural come
• 26:55
  to Jesus moment, quite literally, Christianity says, love your enemies, pray for those who
• 27:00
  persecute you, it doesn't say you have no enemies, and it doesn't say no one is persecuting you,
• 27:07
  and one of the best ways you can win an enemy over to be a real friend is to convert them to
• 27:15
  Christ, so I would like to see Christianity reclaim its missionary spirit, because when you
• 27:23
  have a Christian culture, you don't have a rape culture, and I think that needs to be sent up
• 27:30
  front. Raymond Ibrahim, I am so grateful for your time, I'm so very, very grateful for your good
• 27:34
  work, keep on doing what you're doing, and maybe someday we'll have a pleasant conversation,
• 27:40
  but meanwhile, I'm glad that you're with The Catholic Current today,
• 27:44
  and I hope we can talk again soon. Thanks, Fr. McTeague.
