About this ebook
A Syrian-born female psychologist speaks out against the evil of radical Islam: “Forged in justifiable anger, this [is a] flamethrower of a book” (Kirkus Reviews).
On Feb. 21, 2006, Wafa Sultan gave one of the most provocative interviews ever given by a Muslim woman on the Al Jazeera network. In the middle of the interview, she told her male Muslim interviewer that it was her turn to speak. And she did. She told him to “shut up”.
This simple yet radical act—of a Muslim woman asserting herself in the face of a Muslim man—catapulted her to fame. Now, Sultan tells her story and airs her provocative views in a book that offers a cleare-eyed look at Islam and the threat it poses for the world.
As an intelligent young girl who would someday become a psychiatrist, Sultan grew up under the thumb of a culture ruled by a god who hates women and all they represent. From this kernel of female hatred at the heart of Islam, Sultan builds her case against the mullahs and their followers bent on destroying the West.

The problem with Islam is that no other religion aroused passions as Islam does While others advocate dispassion, calmness and composure, Islam just shouts as though they carry some hell-fire in their brains. They have no concept of Independent thinking and an ability to judge people and situations, by serious questioning and a freedom to speak their minds. This is because of the fear, nay, terror, Induced by their prophet in the minds of the simple Arab folks even back in the 6th century. Mohammad want power at any cost and pleasure at every Opportunity. He obtained every thing he wanted with force, murder and mayhem. A s em

Islams defence is a `Hissing noise` , Essential to understanding the intimidation used by the Arabic- Islam.
An educated writer, clearly magnifies the readers understanding of an inflaned Musllim world.
Writen from personal experienc, growing up in a brutal Islamic dictatorship (Syria).
A Very good book.

As somebody whose been studying the Islamic Faith for over 15 years, has attended Islamic lectures and events, visited Mosques globally, I can confidently say that this book is FALSE, MISLEADING, UNINTELLITUAL & written in and by the tongue of ignorance.
