Again And Again, When Westerners

The Koran Is A Not 'a Product Of Muhammad Or Even Of Arabia,' But A Collection Of Earlier Judeo-christian Liturgical Materials Stitched Together To Meet The Needs Of A Later Age...a Few Scholars Go Even Further, Doubting Even The Existence Of Muhammad.

I Draw A Distinction Between Traditional Islam And Islamism. Islamism Emerged In Its Modern Form In The 1920s And Is Driven By A Belief That Muslims Can Be Strong And Rich Again If They Follow The Islamic Law Severely And In Its Entirety. This Is A Response To The Trauma Of Modern Islam.

It’s A Mistake To Blame Islam, A Religion 14 Centuries Old, For The Evil That Should Be Ascribed To Militant Islam, A Totalitarian Ideology Less Than A Century Old. Militant Islam Is The Problem, But Moderate Islam Is The Solution.

The Palestinians Are A Miserable People...and They Deserve To Be.

You Can't Just Read The Koran To Understand Muslim Life. You Have To Look At History, At Personalities, At Economics, And So On.
