Ave Maria, piena di grazia,
il Signore è con te.
Tu sei benedetta fra le donne
e benedetto è il frutto del tuo seno, Gesú.
Santa Maria, Madre di Dio,
prega per noi peccatori,
adesso e nell'ora della nostra morte.
Amen
Goodbye Oriana, and thank you.

Although I do not know much about her personally, from what I have read since September 11th, this was a woman of conviction and a great writer. I read her book, the Rage and the Pride, shortly after the September 11th attacks and was taken aback to see somebody tackle Islam the way that she had in this book. It should have been a big wake-up call to Europe. Too bad they wasted the last years of her life prosecuting her for hate crimes.
RIP.

May she truly rest in peace. She fought Nazis, Brown Shirts, Communists and she tried to warn us ALL about Islamo-fascism............

Was just considering purchasing one of her books - she seems to tell it like it is.

Does it measure up to the Rage? I just reserved Reason from my library. Hopefully will be reading it next week.

Does this mean all those Arrest Warrants for 'hate speech' are null and void?

I hope she found religion before she passed...
Truly, one of the few sensible voices in journalism.

She was one tough brave lady, and she'll be missed.

I adored her. A European who got it (and a former idol of the academic left to boot!).
