When Italian writer Oriana Fallaci declared “I want to defend ours and I am informing you that I prefer Dante to Omar Khayam,” the sky came crashing down. They crucified her: “Racist! Racist!” And she was a color-blind, ultra-tolerant, diversity-conscious Leftist! Lesser brave souls naturally preferred to remain silent.

She gave a talk to the Amer.Enterprize.Inst. recently about Islam and either the AEI did not allow cameras in or, C-SPAN either didn't cover it or did not show it. Does anyone have any info on this? I really wanted to hear what she had to say.

The anti-Islam book everybody is talking about
