Bernard Lewis's "Marker Issues'..being- democracy, human rights, polygamy, Islamic criminal penalties, hijab, beating of wives, status of minorities, and the Islamic State, as an agenda attacking Muslims, in order to silence voices that challenge neo-conservatives perspectives.
This excercise in self-delusion serves only to distract people from the real sources, and delays efforts to bring forth a lasting and permanent solution.
In essance, you are making a remark that you have no basis, other than speculation, to prove your point, and are using the fact that I am Muslim to discredit me. The original post had/has nothing to do with Islam/Muslims..it is about Western Media Portrayal in regards to China, so if we can stick to that issue it would be nice to not be sidetracked by knee-jerk responses from pundits.
Thank-You.
