Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somali woman who fled to Europe to avoid marriage to someone she didn’t like, has written several books about the Somali clan structure and Islam. Her books are pretty devastating. They offer little hope of any reconciliation between Islam and modernity:
Infidel
Nomad: A Personal Journey Through the Clash of Civilization
The Caged Virgin : A Muslim Woman’s Cry for Reason

You said it! I read Infidel recently. Amazing book by a lady who’s led an extraordinary life by any standards. I’ve always been grateful to’ve been born an American, but that book reminded me so repeatedly.

Anyone who thinks Islam a mere religion like any other, or discounts terrorists as extremists operating outside of Islam... Man, you need to read this book and wake TFU.
