And of course, once someone formerly on the side of the radical left (is there any other kind of left?) speaks out against them, she's painted with the same brush they reserve for us conservatives.

Human rights watchdogs accused Fallaci, who suffers from cancer, of playing into the hands of Osama bin Laden's fanatics by using provocative language to stir religious hatred.

I knew the international human rights sewer rats would find a way to condemn the author. I couldn't help but notice that they aren't griping about the Islamafascists' "using provocative language to stir religious hatred".

... It has been reprinted five times in Italy and unauthorised translations swiftly appeared on pro-Israeli websites. So too has Fallaci's latest article which lambasted European anti-Semites ...

I love this woman. Where can you find these unauthorized translations of her book or articles?

Anger and Pride by Oriana Fallaci.. Her first essay about 9-11-2002 attack

Anti-Semitism Today by Oriana Fallaci

[NeoCaveman]

she denounces Europeans who sympathise with the Palestinians as anti- Semites who would sell their own mothers to a harem to see Jews once again in the gas chambers and ovens of Dachau.

BTTT

I must say, good for her. Not for the hatred, but the anger that she voices toward fanatics. Since Sept. 11th, I still have heard little outcry from the muslim community, and as a result I too have been harboring anger toward these people. Would I harm a muslim, ABSOLUTELY NOT, as I couldn't harm any person. However, there is anger at this group, and anger at the PC crowd.

Maybe the Muzzies overplayed their hand? Maybe even their long-term friends are so totally freaked out that common sense has intervened?

I certainly hope so, at any rate. I'm sure she's getting lots of pressure from the Islam-loving European left - and I hope she's finding out how much harder it is to resist intellectual pressure than to resist fear. Being laughed at and ridiculed by one's "peers" is probably harder, in its own way, than being hunted by the Gestapo.

Which just shows how little watching the "human rights watchdogs" actually do, compared to the amount of politicking.
