And Now for Educational Purposes!

In response to someone who believes 9/11 is an inside job and Fitna is more than a piece of propaganda! Unlike you I don't believe 9/11 was an inside job. It was an event orchestrated by preachers of a hateful ideology. Unfortunately the dominant discourse of Islam today shows no or little tolerance and respect for individual rights and freedoms. Even the criticism of the so called moderate Muslims against acts of violence has more to do with a pragmatic concern for Islam and the Muslim community as opposed to a fundamental belief in human dignity and intrinsic value of human life. It will do the Muslim community no good if all they know is to get offended, make up conspiracy theories, and threaten people to death for speaking up.

Fitna

I have received numerous e-mails about Fitna and statements such as how untrue the movie is, etc. Why one should be offended or denounce Fitna? What is to defend about the hateful people shown in the movie when one doesn’t see himself/herself in line with those who preach hate, and interpret the verses of Quran to terrorize and murder people. Yes! The person who has made the movie has his own agenda but he hasn’t hired actors! Or has he?!!

Obama Enthusiasts: Inexcusable

This comes to me as great surprise to see how most (black) Americans try to find excuse after excuse for the racist, sexist, and anti American remarks by Jeremiah Wright.

Iran: The Mistreatment of Women


The Swiss Foreign Minister Micheline Calmy-Rey known for her stand on women's rights veils to meet with the Iranian regime’s representative. When asked she said "When you are a guest you respect local customs."

She reminds me of "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. One has to stand firm against the devil but people like her legitimize the mistreatment of women in countries ruled by tyrants. And what if the local customs were cannibalism or stoning? Would she participate in those rituals as well?
