I actually read the attached non-rebuttal rebuttal by "The Canadian Islamic Organization" attacking Marc Steyn's masterful Maclean's Magazine articles. This tome itemizes accurately Western fears about Islam and other than saying those fears are false, does nothing to rebut them, or show that Islam is a constructive force in society.
For example, the report states that "(i)t is submitted that Macleans’ publications vis-à-vis the Muslim community are: (1) promoting Islamophobia and fear of Muslims; (2) representing Muslims as violent people who are prone to engage in violence and are incapable of living peacefully in their host societies; (3) casting suspicion on Muslims at large as potential terrorists, extremists, and radicals; (4) representing the presence and growth of Muslims in Western societies as a threat to the Western values of democracy, freedom, and human rights; (5) Attempting to import a racist discourse and language into mainstream discourse in Canadian society; (6) Attacking multiculturalism and religious freedoms; (7) attacking laws that provide protection to identifiable communities from the type of discriminatory journalism that Macleans is engaging in; (8) condemning any and all efforts by politicians, law enforcement, media". The "report" does nothing to illustrate that any of this is not fully justified. If interested, you can peruse the attachment.
The "text" is only about 17 pages long. The rest are copies of the "offending" articles, annotated with footnotes. and other institutions to reach out to Muslim communities and to exercise sensitivity.
Thanks for posting that JBG.
