African Islamic homophobia

Out of Africa comes extreme homophobia, limited not just to Christianity but finding some of its most extreme expression in Islam, as the following articles show. So vested is Islamic law (Sharia) in not only homophobia, but misogyny, that Miss World 2002 had to relocate from Islamic Nigeria where an unmarried woman, who had become pregnant as a result of being raped, was condemned to death by stoning for her "sin", and 200 Nigerians massacred in the riots that followed this sentence. A BBC TV documentary broadcast on the events captured the fear and loathing which forced the contestants to flee Nigeria, following international pressure being brought on the recalcitrant Miss World organisation to relocate. Images of terrified potential Miss Worlds filled our screens as the shell-shocked beauties fled just ahead of their potential assassins.

Al Fatiha - a network for gay Muslims

Al Fatiha - a network for gay Muslims Al Fatiha bravely asserts the possibility of being both Muslim and gay (LBGTIQ) despite the fact that the source of Islam, the Koran and Hadiths, make this an impossibility.

Irshad Manji - articles by and about

The trouble with Islam today is that it's still stuck in the 7th Century Arabian blood-soaked desert An introduction to the issues of the ir/reconcibility of Islam with democracy and human rights, including homosexuality, or more correctly desert Islam - as author Irshad Manji refers to the fundamentalist strain of Islam dominant in the Muslim world - is contained in her brilliant, scathing and well-researched book 'The trouble with Islam'. Lesbian Ugandan Asian Muslim Manji, now a naturalised Canadian journalist and TV producer, deconstructs modern Islam, showing it to be entirely unevolved from the primitive 7th century tribal feudal Islam of the violent and blood-soaked Arabian deserts. The book contains a brief but stunningly accurate dissection of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and unexpectedly points the finger of blame squarely at the Arab Muslim nations, in a masterly expose of their deceptions and intrigues which the liberal Western media have covered up in their anti-Semitic drive. You owe it to the future of democracy and human rights to read this book.           It' s an open letter - The Trouble with Islam is an open letter from me, a Muslim voice of reform, to concerned citizens worldwide -- Muslim and not. The trouble with Islam - Barry Boyce talks to Irshad Manji about her new book, The Trouble with Islam, and her call for an age of Islamic reform. Blind Faith - Muslim reaction to the beheading of Nicholas Berg tells us a lot about what’s happening in the Islamic world. Double Jeopardy - When Jacques Chirac led the recent campaign to ban Muslim headscarves from French schoolrooms, he could hardly have realised how much in common he had with Ayatollah Khomeini. Irshad Manji: Islam's marked woman - Irshad Manji is a lesbian Muslim who says her religion is stuck in the Middle Ages. The outspoken author tells Johann Hari how she became a target for assassination. Notes from a Muslim refusenik - Interview by Aisha Lee Shaheed, The more you argue with Irshad Manjiís plan for reforming the Muslim world, the more she likes it. Irshad's interview with Salman Rushdie - Salman Rushdie's latest book is a collection of essays entitled Step Across This Line. Many of his essays reflect upon Islam and "the plague years" - the time Rushdie spent under Ayatollah Khomeini's fatwa. Working for an inclusive Islam - Muslim lesbian faces death threats for radical ideas in new book . An article from The Washington Blade Moderate voices in Islam - By Hasan Suroor. The long-awaited debate in the Muslim community over reforms may have begun, at last.

Daniel Pipes - articles by and about

Who is Daniel Pipes? Pipes is a former professor at the U.S. Naval War College. He has taught history and Islamic studies at Harvard and the University of Chicago. He is a scholar and the author of 12 books, four of which are on Islam. Unlike most of the complacent and clueless Middle East academic establishment, which specializes in the brotherhood of man and the perfidy of the United States, Pipes has for years been warning that the radical element within Islam posed a serious and growing threat to the United States.

Harvard magazine Biography pf Daniel Pipes

Dear Reader:

Although I have been a critic of my alma mater, Harvard University (see for example here, here, and here), the university's alumni magazine has done a substantial and fair biography of me that I thought might be of interest. A pdf version of the article, with graphics, can be found at http://www.harvardmagazine.com/lib/05jf/pdf/0105-38.pdf

Yours sincerely,

Daniel Pipes
