#1 All I can say to this moonbeam idiot is: It ain't the misinterpretation of islam that's killing people all over the world. It's motherfuckers that practice islam, as a whole, that are killing people. This bitch isn't standing up to the radicals....she'd rather piss and moan about, "invading another country" and "humiliating" people. If they'd take care of their business, we wouldn't have to.

islam DOES call for the killing of everyone who's not a muslim. We are in a world war.....the world just hasn't understood that yet. As soon as the bombs start blowing up in paris, bonn, etc..... Maybe then they will begin to catch on. These filthy muslims must be killed....every goddamn one of 'em.

Do we have the will to survive? For, to survive means we MUST destroy those filthy muslim pigs.

#2 HP, it's the Islamists who seek religious genocide. That's something more like the Nazis than what America stands for. I comprehend your hatred and understand the sense of urgency you feel. Killing on a mass scale is in no way merited by a long shot. Iran proliferating nuclear weapons is one of the only potential short-term triggers for the very beginnings of such a scenario, and we're not quite there yet.

And yes, you are completely right. Europe is going to take some major body blows before coming to it's senses. This is World War and everyone is rearranging deck chairs.

#3 What a crock of shit. How come when they come to the West they're all, "Pleease, let us do what we want, and join us in the multicultural paradise of Benetton". But go to their countries and suddenly it's, "Yeah, mothafucka, we do have a monopoly on truth. Accept it or die.

I say, f*ck that. Let them have reciprocal treatment. Iranians have no rights in this country. Saudis have no rights in this country. Egyptians have no rights in this country. You want a moskkk? Let me see a church or synagogue in Riyadh. This cannot be a one-way street.

#5 Great comments, Zenster. Does the distinguished laureate know we attacked Iraq out of common sense self-defense considerations, perceiving an unmanageable and intolerable threat there? The tremendous human rights gains that will result are incidental -- though not incidental to American values or instincts. And we have every right to act aggressively in self-defense, thank you very much.

Scharansky and Sakharov were courageous dissidents, strangers to pseudo-pacifist moral narcissism and the general sort of b.s. she's spouting. I'm sure she's got some guts and is vastly better than the islamofascist mullahs, but she's not even on the waiting list of clear-eyed visionary dissidents, sorry.

#7 Don't be so rough on Shirin Ebadi, she's one of the people working on the inside in Iran to bring down the turbans. (See here and here.)

I'm not a Moslem, but I have no problem if a modified, Protestant-Reformation version of Islam, one which rejects burkhas and suicide bombings, arises in opposition to Wahabbi fascism. Verlaine's right: Ebadi's off base when she criticizes us for acting in self defense. On the other hand, if we're going to get a nonlethal version of Islam to become the dominant model, it's going to be people like Ebadi who bring it about.

#8 "It’s the misinterpretation of Islam, not Islam itself, that has led to the religious violence and terrible treatment of women that we see in many Islamic countries"

oh. that clears things up. now I feel better. It's all simply a misunderstanding.

#11 Mike,
It is true that at one time, Shirin was anti Mullarchy but in the past 6 months or so, virtually everything she has said was not only
'its all a mistake in interpretation' but also she has added liberal doses of anti US and anti semitic crap. She has also criticized the people protesting the Mullahs. Here is a link from last Dec by a persian anti Mullah http://www.faithfreedom.org/oped/Potkin31212.htm

#12 Her prattle rings hollow when she weasels in anti west/American blather.

Her saying that islam is being misrepresented by islamic people doesn't do it for me. It's fake, Rbr's know it. It's the inability for islamic people to say that which is the problem. It's either true or fake Mz Ebadi. Not misrepresented!

Islam is great for antique, tribal societies that live in the past. But it is not compatible with a "live and let live" modern society.

Free the muslims, bring down the pillars. As far as I can tell it's the only way. People that will speak out aginst islam in those places that hold tight to it are just a day away from being murdered. Thus the Barcelona location for the conference.

#13 This is the same Islamo-facist bitch that was telling the U.S. that we need to be more like Iran with respect to our treatment of women. She is in cahoots with the mullahs and probably with the Saddam lovers. I think you will notice that no Catholic or Anglican Bishop or Rabi was mentioned in the article. Looks like a group of religious scholars (not practitioners) getting together to bash Judeo-Christians. Anyone want to bet they come out with a statement that blames Christians, Jews, or both for the world’s problems?
