It seems that when you call into question all the blood, devastation, death, war and Horror of the ROP, The members of the ROP try and solve it by you know, killing you! Dr. Wafa Sultan as you may recall appeared on Al-Zazeera a while back and took the gentleman opposite of her to task over the violence associated with Islam. She ate him up one side and down the other (link to video here). It seems that watching her college professor shot to death in class changed WafaÂ’s mind about Islam which she had grown up with and followed all her youth. You see itÂ’s the violence that turns people off and Wafa is just making that clear. But now she suffers death threats for her stand. The story is at the NYT. (link removed For Bluto)I got there and normally you can see a story at least once per day without registering.

.New York Times : Dr. Sultan bitterly criticizes the Muslim clerics, holy warriors and political leaders who she believes have distorted the teachings of Muhammad and the Koran for 14 centuries.

She said the world's Muslims, whom she compares unfavorably with the Jews, have descended into a vortex of self-pity and violence.

Dr. Sultan said the world was not witnessing a clash of religions or cultures, but a battle between modernity and barbarism, a battle that the forces of violent, reactionary Islam are destined to lose.

"I believe our people are hostages to our own beliefs and teachings,"

Perhaps her most provocative words on Al Jazeera were those comparing how the Jews and Muslims have reacted to adversity. Speaking of the Holocaust, she said, "The Jews have come from the tragedy and forced the world to respect them, with their knowledge, not with their terror; with their work, not with their crying and yelling."

She went on, "We have not seen a single Jew blow himself up in a German restaurant. We have not seen a single Jew destroy a church. We have not seen a single Jew protest by killing people."

She concluded, "Only the Muslims defend their beliefs by burning down churches, killing people and destroying embassies. This path will not yield any results. The Muslims must ask themselves what they can do for humankind, before they demand that humankind respect them."

DR. SULTAN is "working on a book that — if it is published — it's going to turn the Islamic world upside down."

"I have reached the point that doesn't allow any U-turn. I have no choice. I am questioning every single teaching of our holy book."

The working title is, "The Escaped Prisoner: When God Is a Monster.(emphasis mine)"

2 Thanks, Howie, not that I read his posts, but he was most likely a stealth troll trying to make us look bad. The only thing he offered was hate.

5 Crazy muslims threatening to kill a woman? It must be Saturday. She needs to get herself some muslim kryptonite, AKA pigs blood. And a Glock. Swab the bullets, girl friend. Aim for the groin. I just finished snooping around a muzzie forum, where they were calling for the deaths of the writers who signed that manifesto, a while back. One thread was particularly entertaining, warning men of the evils of summer time, and NOT TO LOOKY LOOKY, because that could lead to NOOKY NOOKY! LMAO! http://www.ummah.net/forum/showthread.php?t=17842 If a muzzie takes viagra, will he do a little jig and assplode?

7 She's said a mouthful with, "...distorted the teachings of Muhammad and the Koran for 14 centuries." That would mean from day one, from Muhammed on down the line. Let me put it this way. Muhammed taking stories from the Bible and the Talmud, distorting them and creating the Koran is just like Steven Spielberg taking the story of the 1972 Olympics, distorting it and creating his version of Munich. Both did it for monetary gain and a warped vision of the world.

11 According to the NYT article that is not the case. It states she's married. I picked up the other information off a Swedish national political blog.

12 NS Advisor? Hell, make her Secretary of State!

13 Oh Grame you know better than that. I want you all to comment and have fun I even like a good insult wll delivered with humor. That guy was being a pain on purpose and totally. Now it's true I'ts'my First and I'll submit the info and offer my head to Rusty as he is supposed to control access. But they think they can pull that crap and I don't have time to watch all day and delete him. I reckon the rest of you are safe..... for now. Muahhahahahah!!!

14 What gets me is that the guy sitting across rather than blame the murderers calls her a heretic and remember one who leaves Islam after being a Muslim is a special apostate even lower than a Christian who holds his. How do they not blame the killers damaged this womans faith. They took from Islam by destroying a good smart Mulsim Womans faith. They Robbed and defaced Islam and the Umma not her. Why do they not seek to restore her faith and fight the evil?

Both did it for monetary gain and a warped vision of the world. Naw. Mo' did it for the booty. The underage booty.

16 But I wonder if Mohammad's teachings were sound in the first place. Reading the Koran one gets the impression it encourages violence - try it, read some. Intolerance is the name of the game for Muslims.
