Arab Winter Comes to America: The Truth About the War We're In by Robert Spencer
Robert Spencer is an outstanding scholar of Islam who has been reporting about the evil effects of Islamic terrorism for decades. This book reference the now infamous failed Arab Spring, but this is not about what went wrong in Egypt, Sudan and Tunisia, but focusses on what has gone wrong with the United States in terms of its policies for handling rising power of Islamists and Islamic sympathizers in this country. What has United State and other Western countries have done to minimize the growth and radicalization by Islam.
The Arab Spring cracked regimes that had sought a middle ground between the unfettered savagery of Islamic law and the modern world. The Arab Winter is trying to do the same in Western world. Current laws and political policies of Obama are designed to silence the critics of Sharia and blasphemy laws, and branding them as Islamophobia. The political and religious groups linked to Islamic terrorism silence scholars like Robert Spencer who would denounce them for what they are while using the threat of youth “radicalization” as blackmail. The author warns that the real struggle between Western civilization and the medieval terror theocracy (such as Sharia laws that enslave women, amputation, stoning-to-death, etc.) has left the deserts of Arabia and has firmly established in the Western World and it is here to stay for a long-hard fight for its supremacy. The Jihad attacks in Boston and New York by home grown jihadists is as bloody as the one in Pakistan, Egypt or Syria. Our future will be as bloody as these Islamic countries. The weather outside may carry the warmth of a balmy spring, but as long as a cold wind blows out of the desert where Islam was born, it will continue to freeze souls and minds and whenever a bomb goes off or a Muslim kills a non-Muslim in the name of Islam, a chilly strand of that wind blows through our minds and hearts, yet powerless to do much about it.
This is a highly readable book by an outstanding Islamic scholar knowledgeable about Islamic history; it is a very illuminating book. I highly recommend this to any interested in understanding the true nature of Islam and its ultimate goal in the Western World.
