Tolerating intolerance
2010-05-24
Remember Tariq Ramadan? He's a grandson of Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood. This charming organization lives by its credo: "Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qur'an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope."

Ramadan has specialized in what the French writer Caroline Fourest calls "doublespeak": saying emollient things to Western audiences, and rather more inflammatory things when he addresses the Muslim faithful.

The Bush administration denied Ramadan a visa to enter the United States, quite rightly in our opinion. But that ban was recently lifted, and Ramadan has been making the rounds of U.S. college campuses.

#6  Told that immolating widows on the funeral pyres of their husbands was a cherished local custom, Napier said “Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.” What, we wonder, would Sir Charles have thought of covert apologists for barbarism like Tariq Ramadan or their “feminist” enablers like Joan Wallach Scott [Princeton resident idiot]?

Seems like an idea whose time is lone overdue.

#4  OldSpook, with respect, I take exception at your choice of words. "Marxist" would be more correct that mere "liberal".
