This is THE most interesting interview on history that I've ever listened to. Kate, your work sourcing speakers to wake and shake up the world is priceless. Thank you for putting these ideas in front of us and please never stop!

Thank you Kate for this great interview! I highly respect Robert Spencer and look forward to reading his latest book. Mr. Spencer is partly responsible for my involvement in politics and my participation in the 2019 and 2021 Canadian federal elections. In fact, the state sponsored CBC News had a heyday writing about how racist I was during the 2019 elections because of my views on immigrants and Islamists living freely in Canada at our expense and detriment. ( https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/nancy-mercier-beausejour-people-s-party-immigration-racist-1.5288289 )

Indeed, I was so outraged when the Trudeau government paid Islamicist/Jihadist/Terrorist Omar Khadr $10.5 Million for ”violating his human rights" while he was being detained for his terrorist actions or war crimes, that it prompted me to investigate the legal options and ethical reasons for paying him this money and landed on Mr. Spencer’s site: www.JihadiWatch.org - And, the rest, as they say, is history.

Furthermore, you and Mr. Spencer, among others, continue to inspire and inform me on my ongoing campaign in making Canada strong and free again under a new Canadian Magna Carta. So, thank you for providing me with the impetus to "step into the arena" -to quote from Teddy Roosevelt's 1910 'Man in the Arena' speech.

I look forward to your next presentation! -God bless

Nancy, I did not know this part of your story, thank you for sharing! Incredible how the headline and majority of the story lies, giving perusing readers the full smear of you. At least at the very end, they have the decency to quote you:

“Mercier dismisses the notion her position is racist. She noted her brother-in-law, who is a Muslim of Indian and Afghani descent, and a young gay man of Lebanese and Egyptian descent, both live with her.

"They've integrated here very well and they've escaped the type of terrorism that I'm speaking of that they see being brought here now," she said.

Mercier said she welcomes immigrants who are willing to integrate and be productive.

"The more the merrier."

The title should be “peace loving pastor who lives with ex-Muslim refugees accused of racism for expressing her concerns over terrorism”.

Deceit is a weapon of intimidation. I’m so glad you have remained tethered to your convictions, and won’t be silenced!

I've been thinking how the West has taken for granted that islam is a religion, and has accommodated it as such. It's not a religion by any Western understanding of what religion is. If it is legitimate in the West, then so was Hitler. Our formulation of a response is to challenge islam on this basis, something which has never been done, I don't think, it's a civilization that is the very antithesis to our own Judeo-Christian civilization, in every way, and by every measure. It's supremacist, fascist, by its own philosophy, "islam towers and is not towered upon" by its own tenant, by its admittance, it doesn't coexist. There should be consolidation on this, and it should lead to the banishing of islam in the West.

Lest it be thought that this is against individual Muslims, it's not, it's against islam. If traction is gained on this, it is my expectation that sincere Muslims may themselves be allies.

How is it that in the year 2024 our freedom of speech has been reduced to either agreeing with an agenda, or hate speech?

“Hate speech,” seems to mean racial epithets, slurs, or Holocaust denial. There is no “hate speech” in America off the Internet or in rap music. The N-word is the only word in the English language which is forbidden from being uttered, unless it’s being used by a particular group, or in hip-hop music. If you forget to play make believe, and you refer to someone by the gender that all outward appearances relate to, or even their biological gender, you’re using hate speech!

What a great interview. I had to watch the part where you discuss the almost accidental arrival of the Byzantine scholar of the Greek philosophers, and the developments thereafter leading to the Renaissance and the end of what is generally referred to as The Dark Ages. Mind-blowing. For me, the whole problem of the oxymoron "multiculturalism" is that the very laws and customs of this society are completely built on the "uniculture" which was necessary to enable that cohesion to happen. God made us free, so we are free to do anything which is not strictly prohibited by documented and established laws, whether by constitution or (here in the UK at least) by legal precedent. So unless one's religion and culture acknowledges those laws in totality - or one tries to change those laws by democratic process, which by the way is also uniquely enshrined in those laws - then that signals the beginning of a societal atrophy. As your guest speaks about, a hollowing out of the very substance of our Western societies, until all that is left is the facade and there is nothing behind the scenery. It's happening incrementally and by stealth.

That blew my mind as well! Thanks for your great comment, incrementally and by stealth is it!

I quote the end: "I hope this explanation clarifies my position and helps you understand my limitations in translating such content." . Why is an electronic device personalized?

If you take a look at what war propaganda is and its purpose. It's purpose is to dehumanize an entire race or group of people. Naturally people do not think that walking around and murdering other families because a murderer is on the loose is ok. War propaganda does this. Guilt by association is a lie and evil.

I had met a Turkish muslim woman in Lansing years ago who knew her grandmother was Christian, she didn't remember how she'd known this, somehow she did. Not something usually shared with children or relatives. Personal anecdote, as my grandfather, at 5, along with his not much older brother, and their baby sister were escaping the slaughter, having witnessed their parents murdered, their sister was stolen from them. Conceivably, I may have muslim cousins. If she survived.

I hope the positive, useful and productive applications of AI win out. But we are seeing the future of thought control and the editing of history in beta test with Google Gemini. This is really aimed at the next generation who are even less likely to read an actual book, much less a Great Book, and will get all their info from social media and AI bots. Yes we see it now but not yet it’s full manifestation. Step 1 is to recognize the danger. I’m optimistic truth and sanity will win out. Keep up your good work!
