DENIALISTS: Their propaganda about Islam grows more desperate.
 [SPECTATOR.ORG] The more violence that comes out of the Islamic world, the more that the Left insists Islam is a "religion of peace." The rise of ISIS has inspired Western leaders to redouble their attempts at reeducation. Appointing themselves Islamic authorities, they declare that ISIS is "not Islamic."These Western leaders are far more protective of Islam than their own historic religion. They are willing to subject Christianity to scrutiny for its supposedly reactionary teachings, even as they hold that the doctrines of Islam are flawless and beyond criticism. At Yale this week, student groups that typically sponsor critics of Christianity denounced the appearance of a critic of Islam, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, on campus. Had Ali arrived to blame Ray Rice's domestic violence on patriarchal American culture, she would have been welcomed with open arms. But, instead, she came bearing a message they didn't want to hear: that Islamic culture mistreats women. As a victim of genital mutilation and forced marriage at the hands of Muslims in Somalia, Hirsi Ali is understandably baffled by the Left's enthusiasm for Islam. Posted by: Fred 2014-09-18 |
