Signed the petition and left the following message on the Barnes and Noble mail form:

"Please do not stop your distribution and sales of "Prophet of Doom" by Craig Winn. There is a long tradition of criticizing religion in this country, and Islam should not be exempt from it. Caving in to muslim pressure would only provide a sad victory for Islamist censorship. Thank you for your time."

Me too. . after reading some of the "tolerant" screeds on Amazon's book review pages I am making this book a gift to a heck of a lot of my friends (and lefty enemies).

"Is there "anti-jihad" type list that can be pinged for this?"

JohnathanRGalt will have to exercise the initiative on that.

Great thread, Agitate. Islamic tyranny is first rooted in its cult based intellectual tyranny. I'm not surprised they are trying to suppress this book—or any academic work critical of Islam.

Thank you for the heads up, this is exactly the kind of nonsense we need to jump on.

Muslims are trying to stop the release of the book Prophet of Doom by Craig Winn, which dares to criticize Islam.

- PING!

______________________________________________________

A reviewer of 'Prophet of Doom' wrote this:

___________________________

Reviewer:   A reader
When I read reviews that attack this book, I can't help seeing the ignorance of such critics in regard to at least one area, history.
Anyone with the knowledge of freshman history or probably even at highschool level could clearly see the blunders that are in the Quran. Why Moslems cannot see them is due to being brainwashed since childhood and are taught to never question Islam. No one can tell me that I don't know what I am talking about for I happen to be a former Moslem who had enough guts to question this diabolical and anti-human religion and its most unholy book, the Quran. I have spent years researching the lies, violence and the filth that this belief system has been spreading for the past 1400 years. A cursary reading of the Quran should give one a fair idea as to what this fiendish religion is all about. Islam is not a religion of peace. The political correctness in favor of Islam which has been touted by some of our politicians is truly misleading, criminal and nauseating.
I am so thankful to Craig Winn for his courage and dedication to produce such an excellent and thoroughly researched work. The petrified Islamic brain cannot understand what this book is trying to say.
The diabolical spirit of Islam hates to be exposed and that's the main reason behind all assassination attempts on the lives of many who have dared and still do to criticize this satanic reloigion and its sadistic and demon possessed prophet. The following one item should be sufficient to cause every educated Moslem or any Islam sympathizer quite an embarrassment, for their god is an absolute illiterate concerning historical issues. How can a ruler(Nimrod)who lived about 2800 BC attempt to burn a person(Abraham) who lived around 2000 BC? Well, the story is in the Quran, one of Muhammad's owns concoctions. But, Moslems believe that their Book is holy! Everything is possible with Allah, only if a person is dumb enough to check his/her brain at the door and believe whatever Muhammad/Allah says!
ONLY THOSE IGNORANT OF THE HISTORICAL FACTS TEND TO GET ANGRY AT SUCH A BOOK. People need to know that Islam is a false and grossly perverted religion. I believe that this book can be an invaluable educational tool to unmask this global menace. Unless a critic of this well-written book is in full control of his/her intellctual faculties, ought not to utter a word and is not qualified to give an opinion. Please spare us your raw emotions and Islamic venom.
If you have something intelligent and reasonably solid to say, fine; but do not reveal your ignorance by defending this indefensible belief system.
My suggestion for all the Moslems, specially those who hate this book is that they should educate themselves in the subject of ancient history and break out of the 1400 year old cobweb-covered
Islamic mindset to be able to see for the first time what is like to use a gift called FACULTY OF REASON.

I'm #2178 (I think).
This is a petition I can get behind 100%.

Let's make our stand against Islamo-Fascist repression in America while it is still in it's baby stages. If Amazon.com and Barnes-and-Noble go today, who knows what might go tomarrow (and on and on until what happened to poor Theo Van Gogh is repeated in this country).

This is a great resource book, bet one on Islam. If you ever had questions about the legimatacy of Islam, this book will give you a clear understanding.

Islam is a death cult that has started a world war three times. It is the only surviving empire today, and on it's third push to take over Europe, this time it seems it may succeed.

KNOW YOUR ENEMY!

Coincentally, today I had some spare time at work (cough) and, among others, checked out Prophet of Doom. Most of the reviews were negative one star -- I thought that CAIR or some similar group must have sent out an e-mail urging supporters to pan the book, a book they probably never read. I wonder why this book is targeted: there are several other good books critical of Islam, by authors such as Robert Spencer, Serge Trifkovic and Ibn Warraq, and they aren't the subject of a hate campaign, at least not yet.

I think that the book is also available for download -- is it free that way?
