Dr Wafa Sultan on al-jazeera. SheÂ’s probably a dead woman.

#13  Wish there were an Arabic word for a "(female) leader". She is certainly an inspiring one.

#11  Its interesting this was on Al Jazeera. It did in fact reach millions. Good. This sort of thing will probably rile some people up more in the short term, but it gets important ideas out there.

She lives in the US, little (though not impossible) chance for violent retaliation. This is not the Netherlands.

#10  Maybe she will inspire others to speak up. Remember that exponential functions start out slow. Only trouble, we don't have much time for the good ones to brew, with the Iranian M²s thinking that they are on a roll right now.

#8  Â Your type? A probably dead woman? That's your type? Damn, that's shocking.

This reminds me very little of a Southern politician bragging about how the only way he'd lose the upcoming election was to be caught with a live boy or a dead girl.

#7  She tore the guy in the funny hat a new orifice. He couldn't address her arguments; all he could do was call her names. This was on the teevee, watched by millions, so maybe a half dozen or so viewers might pick up on that.

As we used to say in the Navy: " 8 to 80. Blind, crippled or crazy. Not dead over 3 days."

#5  Humm, so you won't ban me because of that necrophiliac remark? Good.

Watched it : yup, joke aside, she is very courageous, you really have to respect that, especially when she acknowledge that the civilization clash is engrained in the coran's jihad teachings, and ask them to be *reformed*.
Still, I have to wonder how many muslims she represents; she's herself the MMM, but for the pious (mainstream, I'd suppose) muslim cleric facing her, she's an apostate... and in fact, she is, she's apostazied this hateful, aggressive religion and is now something else.
How many will hear her and follow her path? SHE is the extremist and the minority, unfortunately, not the Lions of Islam(tm) and thoses who support them passively or actively.
