Ayaan Hirsi Ali in Prospect
Small things like haveing to live under constant police protection and having a death sentence imposed on her by Islamist fanatics does not seemed to have stopped Ayaan Hirsi Ali writing in Prospect and even telling the truth about Muhammad
"Muhammad himself constructed the House of Islam using military tactics that included mass killing, torture, targeted assassination, lying and the indiscriminate destruction of productive goods. This may be embarrassing to moderate Muslims, but the propaganda produced by modern terrorists constantly quotes Muhammad’s deeds and edicts to justify their actions and to call on other Muslims to support their cause."Religion of Peace eh? Looks more like any other empire building thug of that period. She then goes on to critise the Westerners that refuse to tell the truth about Muhammad for fear of offending Muslims
It should not be offensive, or hurtful, to Muslims to call for clear thought on such an important question. This process should provide an alternative to the utopia promised by terrorists—the open society, and it gives Muslims, like Christians and Jews, an opportunity to liberate themselves from the ever-present menace of hell, which is the single most effective threat the fundamentalists employ. And yet suggestions like this cause many people in the west to flinch. Many hold that questioning, or criticising, a holy figure is not polite behaviour, somehow not done. This cultural relativism betrays the basic values on which our open society is constructed. We should never self-censor.She concludes that core western values must be maintained, and proclaimed. If she could just convince the multicultists of this who seem to think that every culture other than our own, no matter hoow violent and repressive, should be promoted.
