My dad is the victim here.” (See here and here.)
It is absolutely crucial for Westerners, especially Americans, to understand his mind-set. This is a cultural and political mind-set which has nothing to do with the color of one’s skin and everything to do with one’s political ideology. Despite heated denial and much controversy, it is also a mind-set which is correlated with the practice of Islam in its current, highly politicized jihadic mode.

Dear Phyllis:
Great stuff and I’m warming to you a lot, you naughty empirically correct journalist you!
Warner at Islam Watch sent me a very hip piece on exactly the same thing. It’s a very hard thing to grasp for the average Westerner, a culture that accepts nay, exalts, the fake, fraudulent and out and out lying and cheating as er, “normal!”
Try Gaza, Hollywood or Super Delegate Tuesday’s!
All the best and here’s the linkage. Colonel Neville.
