I have to admit, I have always respected Robert Ringer immensely. But this diatribe is full of vindictive racist insults to Islam and it's adherents.
If you think I am wrong, simply change the target of the insults to "Judaism" and the insult being the well established (until 1948) charge against the Jews of their being "parasites on every culture where they have established themselves". Why has no Jewish leader or "Rabbi" ever condemned this practice? Until just a few generations ago, it was widely believed that Jews killed and ate Christian babies. Why has no Jewish leader or Rabbi ever condemned this practice? Probably because none of the above is true. Just as the accusation of Islam being a "violent religion" is untrue. Why should an Islamic leader or an Imam condemn something that is untrue? Even the discredited charge of the Islamic heaven having 72 virgins for each Islamic adherent cannot be found in the Holy Koran. But some folks still believe it. If a lie is told often enough, by enough people, some people are certain to believe it. PEACE Steven R.
