Fr. Robert McTeigue of the Catholic Current recently interviewed Raymond Ibrahim, author of Defenders of the West and a Shillman Fellow at the Freedom Center.  The comprehensive, nearly hour-long audio can be heard here or here.  Below is the Catholic Current‘s official description of this must-hear interview:

We welcome back author and scholar Raymond Ibrahim to set the record straight on the Crusades and the spread of Islam through his new book, Defenders of the West: The Christian Heroes Who Stood Against Islam. Why are stories of Christian heroism explained away, and is such heroism still possible today?
