Robert Spencer in PJ Media: Yes, Islamic Terrorism Really Is Islamic
Ibn Warraq’s new book makes clear the irrefutable case.

Where Things Stand
More than 14 years have passed since Americans have had their attention forcefully fixed on the reality of Islamic terrorism.

Ibn Warraq at the Former Muslims United press conference
Some of the remarks by Ibn Warraq at the Former Muslims United press conference.
