The NY Times Hates People Who Hate Radical Islam
Deborah Soloman of The NY Times conducted a disgraceful interview with author and critic of radical Islam Brigitte Gabriel a few days ago.
In her book “They Must Be Stopped,” Gabriel is critical of the way Islamic fundamentalists are trying to burrow there way into American society. Gabriel is a Christian who was born and raised in Lebanon and speaks from experience about the dangers of allowing Islam to spread unchecked.
Deborah Soloman like her radical left-wing colleagues at the NY Times believes that it’s Gabriel that’s the real problem not the insane Muslim killers.
Here’s a few gems from the interview:
As a Lebanese-Christian immigrant who spent her girlhood amid the bloody devastation of the Lebanese civil war, you have lately emerged as one of the most vehement critics of radical Islam in this country. Are you concerned that your new book, “They Must Be Stopped,” will feed animosity toward Muslims? I do not think I am feeding animosity. I am bringing an issue to light. I disapprove of any religion that calls for the killing of other people. If Christianity called for that, I would condemn it.
What about all the moderate Muslims who represent our hope for the future? Why don’t you write about them? The moderate Muslims at this point are truly irrelevant. I grew up in the Paris of the Middle East, and because we refused to read the writing on the wall, we lost our country to Hezbollah and the radicals who are now controlling it.
In your new book, you write about the Muslim presence in America and bemoan the rise of Islamic day schools and jihad summer camp. Is there really such a thing? Yes. Instead of taking lessons on swimming and gymnastics, the kids are listening to speakers give lectures titled “Preparation for Death” and “The Life in the Grave.”…
Here’s the best part:
Are your parents still in Lebanon? I became an orphan at the age of 23. Both my parents are buried in Israel, on Mount Zion, with Oskar Schindler.
Why did you bury them in Israel? I wanted to honor my parents. After all, it is the Holy Land. And I wanted to ensure that both my children will know where my loyalty lies — with Israel, because Israel for me represents democracy, respect and human rights, something that no other country in the Arabic world offers.
Are you an agent of the U.S. government? No.
Are you underwritten by the C.I.A.? No. Are you kidding? In 2000, I voted for Al Gore.
But I see that R. James Woolsey, a former director of the C.I.A., serves on the board of American Congress for Truth, your educational foundation. We also have John Loftus, a staunch Democrat and former Justice Department prosecutor. We are not Red or Blue.
Where do you live? I do not share that information because of the death threats I receive.
Threats from anyone we know? Al Qaeda mentioned my name on their top Internet sites and recently sent a press release about my work.
If you are worried about death threats, why would you put a glamorous photograph of yourself on the cover of your new book? In Lebanon, we were raised to be glamorous, feminine and sensual. It’s the only good thing we inherited from the French.
It really shows you just how far off the reservation The NY Times has gone. This nutty left-winger thinks anyone who hates radical Islam and loves Israel must be a C.I.A. plant. She simply cannot conceive of anyone holding such normal (and completely accurate) viewpoints. I don’t think that last question about where she lives was an accident either. The sickos on the left would love it if an Islamic militant tracked down Ms. Gabriel and wore her head as a hat.
