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."
"The clash we are witnessing around the world is not a clash of religions or a clash of civilizations," Dr. Sultan said. "It is a clash between two opposites, between two eras. It is a clash between a mentality that belongs to the Middle Ages and another mentality that belongs to the 21st century. It is a clash between civilization and backwardness, between the civilized and the primitive, between barbarity and rationality."

“I have no choice. I am questioning every single teaching of our holy book.” - DR. WAFA SULTAN
"I believe our people are hostages to our own beliefs and teachings,"
They who follow Islam are eternal slaves to sin, and shall rise and be condemned in the afterlife.
Mohammedans should put down their scimitars and read John 8:34 or Romans 3:23 for more information.
May the force be with her. She speaks important words.
I hope she survives the danger she has put herself in.
...I'll kill her for saying Islam is not a peaceful religion! Allah Ackbar!!!
*goes to burn a car....*
What a heroic woman. And to resist the urge to abandon one mystical religion simply to go join some other is doubly impressive.
She'd have her hands full here with the tiny minority of Islamo-fascist appeasers who swarm every thread squawking about how "peaceful" the entire Islamic world is--while the rest of us are "bigots" and "unappeasables."
Guess she hasn't gotten the memo yet from this crowd hereabouts:
God protect her.
No. Violence against non Muslims makes non Muslims angry and fearful. The man who is afraid of you WILL kill you at the first chance.
Keep it up there muzzies. Sooner or later, you'll reap the whirlwind and be reminded of why you don't use the cross as the symbol for addition. That's for the 5% of you who can read and have pulled your heads out of the Koran (or some mullah's rectum) to learn how to add.
Wow - what a smart, brave, admirable woman! They should play that video on all television stations!!! (wishful thinking, I know)
I pray she stays safe, though, I'm sure she has more than one person a bit peeved.
She had some balls...unlike certain US leaders...
God bless her.
May God protect her from Mad Moe's vermin.
She is inspirational. I hope that she and her family survive. A bodyguard or three might help.
I am happy to see that she is pointing this out. However, as long as muslims continue to subscribe to the koran this is no surprise.
