Allahu Akbar! Muhammad's War Cry

"Allahu Akbar" is an Arabic phrase that means "Allah is greater." In Islam, the expression signifies that Allah is greater than anything else, especially the gods of unbelievers. Muhammad himself would shout "Allahu Akbar" when attacking non-Muslims, including the Jews of Khaybar. In this video, I respond to attempts by CNN, the Huffington Post, and the New York Times to ignore the violent history of the phrase.
