While swaggering and allegedly politically incorrect TV and radio hosts, as well as publications, cower in terror and refuse to discuss the issues raised by my new book The Truth About Muhammad, many smaller shows are refusing to kowtow to intimidation.
(Some larger shows also: I was on the Laura Ingraham and Michael Medved shows yesterday, as well as the show of my dear friend Laurie Roth and some others, and I thank them all for their courage.)
Here is today's schedule. Some of these seem to be tapings for later broadcast.

A teenage schoolgirl was arrested by police for racism after refusing to sit with a group of Asian students because some of them did not speak English.
Codie Stott’s family claim she was forced to spend three-and-a-half hours in a police cell after she was reported by her teachers. The 14-year-old - who was released without charge - said it had been a simple matter of commonsense and accused the school and police of an over-the-top reaction.
The incident happened in the same local education authority where a ten-year-old boy was prosecuted earlier this year for calling a schoolfriend racist names in the playground, a move branded by a judge “political correctness gone mad.”
Codie was attending a GCSE science class at Harrop Fold High School in Worsley, Greater Manchester, when the incident happened. The teenager had not been in school the day before due to a hospital appointment and had missed the start of a project, so the teacher allocated her a group to sit with.
“She said I had to sit there with five Asian pupils,” said Codie yesterday. “Only one could speak English, so she had to tell that one what to do so she could explain in their language. Then she sat me with them and said ‘Discuss’.”
According to Codie, the five - four boys and a girl - then began talking in a language she didn’t understand, thought to be Urdu, so she went to speak to the teacher.
“I said ‘I’m not being funny, but can I change groups because I can’t understand them?’ But she started shouting and screaming, saying ‘It’s racist, you’re going to get done by the police’.”
Codie said she went outside to calm down where another teacher found her and, after speaking to her class teacher, put her in isolation for the rest of the day.
A complaint was made to a police officer based full-time at the school, and more than a week after the incident on September 26 she was taken to Swinton police station and placed under arrest.
“They told me to take my laces out of my shoes and remove my jewellery, and I had my fingerprints and photograph taken,” said Codie. “It was awful.”
That's the future for a minority in any muslim country.
I hope there is more to the story regarding this 14 year old girl being detained. Otherwise it means the world has gone TOTALLY MAD!
If my family decided to move to another country, I would make sure we learned (or tried to learn) the local language.
And we have Brits on this forum who get offended when others suggest Britain is finished. Your little island is completely controlled by the radical Left to a degree incomprehensible to an American. Even to a Canadian, I can not believe what I just read.
It was not just a radical leftist school teacher, but the police were in on it. That is what is frightening.

The Daily Mail is becoming a favorite read. Go Richard. He tells it like it is.
Thanks for that article link - DP111 via LGF.
I went here to see whether Michael Medved's review of the book was there or not. So far, it isn't - only thing they have there are 4 movie reviews.
Maybe get Hollywood to do a movie about Mohammed based on this book, with his head blanked with a black circle (since he can't be depicted). Could Mel Gibson take this up? If he likes, he could do this in Arabic, with English sub-titles (or none).
I'm sure everybody will have a flattering impression of the prophet coming out of the movie.

Not bad. #35 in books on amazon.com as of this posting.
Gotta give Laura Ingraham some credit for courage. Listening to her a while back I had a feeling she was reading Robert Spencer's work.
I've noticed that the writer Michael Novak perhaps has shifted on Islam recently. He recently wrote a cheerleading historical piece about the victory over the Muslim armada at Lepanto. That article was written by a man who a couple of years ago came out with a book about why Huntington's clash of civilizations was not necessary (The Universal Hunger for Liberty).
Way to go Robert, what a schedule! None of these can I hear but at least you are out there, spreading the good news. You are preaching to the choir with me so it's all good. The truth will make us free. May the doors always be open to preach boldly the word of truth.
Okay, the Michael Medved link I provided above does now have the review of 'The Truth about Muhammad'.
Unlike most of Michael's shows that have had taqiyya and tu Quoque artists, this one was very refreshing, particularly the question from David in Phoenix about how could Islamic reform realistically be expected, or the one about President Bush's awareness of this problem. Actually, Robert, after that break which immediately followed Medved's response, you might have done well to have probed him a bit more, given some of the more riduculous statements that have been coming out of this administration, and questioning the assertion that it would be a war of Islam vs the West, rather than Islam vs. the Rest.
Robert gave us at Shire Network News a fascinating interview. We should have this up in our regular weekly show tomorrow. It will be posted at our regular site ( http://tuatara.blogmatrix.com/ ) and my own http://www.friendsofmicronesia.com/ blog.
Regular JW readers will find it interesting I'm sure as he is his usual clear, informative self.
Thanks Robert!
