re: #423 Gus

Morning.

A. Ayaan Hirsi Ali has jumped the shark.
B. Max Blumenthal is still an asshole.
C. Newsweek still sucks.
D. The Salafist protesters are a bunch of loons.

I’m sure there’s more here.

I was just reading Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s latest.
Islamists’ Last Stand

Once again the streets of the Arab world are burning with false outrage. But we must hold our heads up high. Ayaan Hirsi Ali on how she survived Muslim rage—and how we can end it.

I don;t think she’s jumped the shark. She’s always been a little too over the top to be a constructive voice anyways. In fact it seems she’s toned down a bit.
But, she’s not necessarily incorrect.

If the U.S. follows the example of Europe over the last two decades, it will bend over backward to avoid further offense. And that would be a grave mistake—for the West no less than for those Muslims struggling to build a brighter future.

I can’t find fault with that.
