I love all the Islamic experts we have here. How many of you read the Quaran in Arabic? Just like the Bible, certain portions of it can be used for extremist goals, like all religions. Although, we shouldn't equate Christianity with Islam in terms of violent methods/tactics, at least in recent history. It does make me wonder what our attitude would be if instead of Muslim suicide bombers, they were Christian.
I would like someone to give me an outline of the Islamic strategy for taking over the West. Is everyone in the US going to convert to Islam? No? Then they will force us somehow! With what army/navy/air force will they do this? Oh I know, it's going to be Iran! When they get the bomb in a few months, they are gonna totally drop it on us! They have a suicidal government that's been in power for 30 years, but now they want to end it all. That's gotta be it. Replace the Red Scare with Muslim Marauders and it's the same shit, with the exception that the former USSR had tons of ICBMs, a modern army, navy, and air force. Otherwise, totally the same!
As for this author, like many she has some good ideas, but not everything she says is workable, because the real world tends to not conform to academic theories most of the time.
