I would also highly recommend David Pryce-Jones' book "The Closed Circle, An Interpretation of the Arabs" , now reprinted and available at amazon.com.

You will never read a more powerful, intimately revealing book about Arabs and their culture.

There are so many myths about Arab Muslims' history. Pryce-Jones grew up among the Muslim Arabs, has a deep love for them, but he's one of those people who refuse to accept sentimental deceits in the place of reality.

Bat Ye'Or has written several books on Islam and its treatment of 'infidels'. Every one of her books is packed with specific, brutal, historical information. She is an exacting professional historian, and is another who refuses the mish-mash of sentimental multiculturalism.

I have bought and read nearly all the authors you list, Destro, though there's a couple I haven't read and will now get. Thanks for the post.

(PS....immediately following September 11, I began reading about Islam, which I knew nothing about. I looked everywhere for a copy of Pryce-Jones' book The Closed Circle, but everyone had already sold out their used copies. It was out of print at that time. Finally, I found a copy listed by a little book shop in India and ordered it...paid something like $8 total for the book and shipping. When the postman brought my package to the door, he gave me a very hard looking-over. I quickly explained what the package was, even tore the flimsy paper off to show him. He looked relieved and left. I was so glad he was so alert at that scary time!)

Feel free to add your recommendations.

Why in the world would anyone want to discredit an entire religion based on the few wacko radicals, even if there are major elements within the faith that are pure evil? I can't think of a single race, creed, or religion that hasn't currently, or in the past, used the devout to reek havoc on others.

You are what you pretend to despise, a hate monger, whether you like it or not, and I for one couldn't sleep tonight if I let you pass without being exposed in the light, like the vermin you undoubtedly are!

I want this thread to remain so others can read my post and make up their own mind! There is no doubt that you and your comrades would be the first to condemn anyone that would say such things about your faith or race... You sick hypocritical creep!

Tell a Greek or an Armenian or a Copt that Islam is like any other religion. I DO HATE ISLAM. And in the tradition of Orthodoxy I spit three times in rejection of evil in the direction of Mecca.

Really? Then why is it I can post something so uncharacteristically critical of my faith?

Dare a Muslim to do that!

No, I bought those books within weeks after 9/11, studying this religion in earnest. But you've mentioned a couple of books in this post that I haven't read, but am going to! It's a terrific list, Destro. This post is a great service to many who might not know about these wonderful authors.

Your post proves the ignorance of liberals, carlo. If you read any of these books you would see there is no hatred of Muslims or Islam in them. But you will NEVER allow yourself to actually know what you are talking about....you are too busy spewing hatred at those who don't follow your mindset precisely, and who don't accept your word without checking it out.

You are a prime example of the difference between liberals and conservatives. Conservatives seek out knowledge and will read many different authors to get at the facts. Liberals are convinced they need study NOTHING because they are pure in their emotions. Facts are irrelevant to you. Even people, such as the lives of poor Iraqis or the lives of the 3,ooo on 9/11, are irrelevant. It's all about you feeling righteous....your ignorance is the foundation of your hate-filled arrogance.

Why I Am Not a Muslim by Ibn Warraq

The Quest for the Historical Muhammad by Ibn Warraq (Editor), Ibn Warraq (Translator

What the Koran Really Says, Edited and Translated by Ibn Warraq

Leaving Islam: Apostates Speak Out, Edited by Ibn Warraq

I saw Ibn Warraq (pseudonym) on C-SPAN2 recently. This guy is incredible. He was reading from the last book on the list above. He had to appear wearing large dark glasses and a wig because of a Rushdie-type problem. He has a fascinating website where the statements of people who have left Islam are collected: www.secularislam.org

The Closed Circle: An Interpretation of the Arabs by David Pryce-Jones

I also highly recommend this book. I have read it over and over again and it's still interesting.

Your post proves the ignorance of liberals, carlo.

Are you calling me a liberal you dipweed. Read my post again. I will match my conservatism with any on the forum, and particularly on this thread. You can pick your enemies by their actions, and I will cover your flank, but I caution you to shorten your broad brush, encouraging hatred that includes old women and young innocent children.

You have the same beliefs about Revelation and the Tribulation that I have developed since 911. Since I have found out some things about Islam I have dropped the idea that the mark of the beast is going to have anything to do with a computerized western form of totalitarianism that most prophesy "teachers" (mainly people interested in making big bucks from "tin foil hat" sensationalism surrounding Revelation and Daniel interpretations) support. If you actually READ the Book of Revelation, Chapter 13 you will see that this mark is tied to the ACTUAL ACT of worshipping the beast and the Muslems pray in a method that uses the HANDS AND FORHEAD predominantly. Also Revelation 13 tells us that the person who brings about the mark is NOT the beast himself but the FALSE PROPHET (Mohammed perhapse).

FREE INTERNET BOOK ALERT!

The Blight of Asia

By G. Horton

The long out of print, well known book "THE BLIGHT OF ASIA" was published in 1926 in the USA and written by the American General Consul in Smyrna in 1922, who was an eye witness of all the perils of that city and of its Christian inhabitants at the hands of the Muslim Turks. This testimony comes from a high-ranking American diplomat, who served in this capacity in that part of the world for about 30 years, and was therefore a knowledgeable and impartial source.

This book is made available in web format thanks to S. Georgiadis, a Rear Admiral of the Hellenic Navy (Ret). [March 2001]

You think it's just a few wackos who are discrediting the entire religion? Where were the moderates after 9/11/01? The silence of the moderates was DEAFENING!!!

Where were the moderates after this week's double bombing, first at the UN building in Iraq, then on a bus in Israel? Again, the silence of the moderates was DEAFENING!!!

Where are the moderates of Islam who should be speaking out about what their fellow radical Muslims are doing? I haven't heard a word. Have you? I haven't seen moderate Muslims clamoring for their voices to be heard, condemning these barbaric attacks. Again, the silence of the moderates is DEAFENING!!!

Not one word from any Muslim from 9/11/01 on. Running to get my earplugs.

The religion discredits itself. The Koran demands the en-slavement and death of non-muslims. It calls for a disgusting treatment of their own women. It creates unhappy dictitoral societies. The religion is the problem not just the few wackos actually following the religion in the way they are told to do in the koran.

One should know ones enemy to be prepaired for the fight to come. The only reason one would defend this religion is if you are a muslim or ill-informed.

Since this not the first time you have compaired islam as equal to other religions in their teachings I guess it is ill-informed.

You're absolutely right.

That thoughtless 98% positively ruins it for the 2% of "good" muslims.
