Is it true that non-Muslims simply do not have the religious depth to understand the true meaning of the writings in the Quran? Director of the Center for the Study of Political Islam, Bill Warner stopped by Secure Freedom Radio to discuss a recent series of books that he published about the doctrine of Islam called the Taste of Islam. Being a physicist, Bill Warner does not delve into the religious underlining of Islam, but rather the strategic way it has been used to manipulate non-Muslims in the Western world. As Westerners, Americans have been told three lies about Islam. Is it true that we were not able to identify such lies before because Islam is just too complicated for us to understand or have we been relying strictly on Muslim experts who portray it as such? By researching the issues and the Quran itself, Warner has tried to simplify these same works and understand them, as those illiterate Muslims would have back in the time of Mohammed.
Is there any sense in responding to the media coverage and academics that push false rumors about what is occurring in the Middle East, especially in Israel? Lies and misrepresentation permeate the current news coverage of the events in the region. Many journalists continue to depart from the facts and show no interest in the truth. Barry Rubin of the GLORIA Center in Israel continues this discussion with Frank. He argues that a large number of policy makers ignore the fact that revolutionary Islamist forces are expanding their influence in the Middle East, especially in Turkey and Iran. Additionally, how much do these journalists truly realize the threat from revolutionary Islamist forces? If policymakers and journalists continue to rely on a falsehood, then the United States will have no chance of solving the growing violence in the region.
One of the leading experts on Africa, Peter Pham brings to attention the new war starting in Africa. The President of the United States recently announced that he would send special ops into four nations in Central Africa to battle against rebel forces such as the Lord’s Resistance Army led by Joseph Kony. Why is the President implementing the War Powers Act in conflict, while he neglected to do so in the Libyan conflict? What is the scope of the mission in this conflict? Is it simply to protect civilians from the atrocities committed by the Lord’s Resistance Army or is there a deeper purpose?
