Phyllis Chesler, writing for Arutz Sheva (which also appears to be on board the Trump train—Jared! Ivanka!), is hating on the new Muslim-Jewish Advisory Council because people like Ibn Warraq & Ayaan HIrsi Ali aren’t included:

And so, the American Jewish Committee has chosen the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) to launch a “Muslim-Jewish Advisory Council.” Many distinguished (liberal) Jewish names have signed on but the Muslim signatories are not exactly their counterparts.

Only (liberal) Jews “reach out” to understand the Other. Only (liberal) Jews “reach out” to appease the Other.[…]

To the best of my knowledge, these Muslim signatories have not disavowed Jihad or proudly and loudly supported Israel as other Muslim-Americans have done. These liberal Jews have not signed up our most prominent religious Muslim-American reformers such as Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, Ali Alyami or Asra Nomani. Further, I do not see the names of Muslim feminists or Muslim dissidents, who are apostates or secularists, such as Ibn Warraq or Ayaan HIrsi Ali. […]

For those of you not familiar with her, Chesler has also written numerous artilces for Breitbart (see archive.is). She claims to be a feminist (i.e. she’s a concern troll). She whines loudly about “gender apartheid” in Islam, but appears to be oddly silent on the segregation of men & women in Judaism. Imagine my surprise. //

Perhaps now you guys understand why the so-called Muslim reformers, feminists and dissidents who are championed by hateful people like Chesler are disliked & distrusted by most mainstream Muslims.
