Robert Spencer - How Gaza is Used as a Proxy War for Islam vs Judaism

The current Israeli-Gaza war has sparked much debate focussing on geo politics and historical land disputes.
But few dare ask if Islam is the root cause of the ongoing tension.
Robert Spencer has studied Islam for 3 decades. His dozens of books and the Jihad Watch website are all go to sources of background information on Islam and the history behind it.
He returns to Hearts of Oak to ask if this is a religious problem and we start by looking at what Islam actually says about the Jews.
The aggression and vitriol throughout Islamic text and the history of behaviour towards the Jewish people is an eye opener to all of us.
Armed with this deeper understanding Robert then touches on how the term Palestinian was invented. The history, leader, flag and culture had to be invented as it was all non existent before.
His short book "The Palestinian Delusion" goes into much more detail and is a recommended read.
Enjoy the interview and get ready to see this current conflict in a whole new light.
