NATIONAL REVIEW REMOVES BOOKS ATTACKING PROPHET MUHAMMAD

It's infuriating but predictable. It's a contest of the bottom line value of future commercial aircraft and military contracts with (especially) the Saudis vs. the Truth. Not much of a contest for the bean counters who run Boeing and other large corporations.

Also, as someone else commented, National Review doesn't exactly have a record of being down-the-line supportive of Israel (i.e. they're cons not neocons) so a whining fit by an advertiser the size of Boeing would be listened to and obeyed.

For those of us who've come to recognize Islam as a deadly evil cult that's conducted non stop war on the west for going on 1400 years, and its founder as a murderous false prophet (take that, CAIR!), the sway its adherents hold over our society is scary.

I also read "Sword of the Prophet", thebook was excellent and could not put it down.

Okay, I just ordered it.

Also ordered: Tower Stories: The Autobiography of September 11th, by Damon DiMarco.

Didn't NR also fire Ann Coulter for not sucking up to Islamic terrorists? I defended Lowry when al franken challended him to a fist fight and Lowry refused, but maybe he is a girlie-man after all.

My suspicion is that Boeing pressured NR into its action. See http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/Printable.asp?ID=17523 for Robert Spencer's comment on the issue. To say that NR was "intimidated" is damning, certainly bolsters the girlie-man image.

It's sad to see this happen.

National Review had no such scrupples in braying for the Serbian blood and demonizing them in the Der Stuermer style.>>>

IOW, they disagree with you. Ahem.

In other words, Bonly boy realizes you've nailed them. What a putz, eh?

Thanks for the link

Lowry is a PC water boy for the internationalist NGOs at the UN.

Read his hilarious defense of global warming chicken littles.

Thanks for the download.

BWWWWAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The tyranny of the whining, bleating minority again.

Then again, who needs books, when we've got Boeing helping to bomb the bloody, Islamic terrorist bastards into OBLIVIAN?

We need to build a massive new bomber to replace the B-52, B-1, and B-2, and then to name it, bring back an old (remember the Navy's fighter, the F-8?) name for it - the CRUSADER (not an especially PC idea, but useful in killing them in droves and putting the fear of God into the survivors).

Turn the "troubled" areas (with high concentrations of Islamic terrorists and other oppressors torturing and murdering innocents in the name of Allah) in the Middle East to GLASS.

I've read a number of books on Islam, and am reading "The Sword of the Prophet" right now. I highly recommend it.

This book does two things, one good and the other one at least partially bad.

GOOD: The book seems factually accurate, and is an interesting read. But it reaches some conclusions that the American people (along with the rest of the world) are not (yet?) ready to hear. If/when the Muslims succeed in seriously damaging the U.S., the public will be ready for this book.

PARTIALLY BAD: Books like this help convince the Muslims that we are a threat to Islam, and thus helps the evil ones achieve their current objectives. As most Freepers know, a major objective of Bin Laden and friends is to turn the present conflict into a war of all Islam against the United States. They believe that the United States would be destroyed, and the rest of the world would surrender without much of a fight.

SIDE NOTE: When books like this are cited as proof that good Muslims must kill people like me it simply strengthens the conclusions of the book. However, that may be too subtle a point for the average Jihadi to understand.

This is the sort of thing that has for quite a few years made me a former longtime NR subscriber.

Sword of the Prophet is a very matter of fact book that tells it like it is. NR is running across the power of the Muslim PR community in the US, which is all run by the Wahabbis. There was an excellent issue of Imprimis with an article by a former reporter for the SF Examiner (or was it the Chronicle) who described how this PR organization essentially screens and censors news about Islam in the US. Very scary.

[T.L.Sink]

I bought and read this excellent book by Serge Trifkovic,
foreign affairs editor of "Chronicles" magazine. On the
cover is this observation: "The Politically Incorrect
Guide to Islam". There it is! That's why it's been
attacked. It's been documented that CAIR has many terrorists among its membership and is just a shill for
the Islamofascists. This is simply a modern Islamic
example of a form of "book burning". It's regrettable
that N.R. caved - economic necessity I suppose. As a
member of National Review Bookservice I should contact
them and show support and try to organize some type of
financial retaliation against CAIR - but this is no doubt
impossible with an organization funded by Islamofascist
petro-dollars.

Okay, the follow-up indicates it's pretty bad.
