"An indispensable book for perilous times, written by a true hero"
Robert Spencer’s latest book is probably his most timely and most needed. It takes the reader on a deep dive into modern censorship from both Islam and the Left, the colluding evil twins of our era. The book explores how Western governments, academia and the titans of social media (in particular Facebook, Twitter and YouTube) censor the genuine threat of Islamic jihad by banning truth-tellers like Spencer, while permitting literal death-threats by Islamist jihadists against them to stand.
In particular, Spencer explores the “inverted causality” of blaming those who warn of Islamic jihad for outbreaks of Islamic terrorism, instead of the actual Islamic perpetrators. Mohammed Atta’s words on the intercom to the doomed passengers stand as a metaphor: “Just stay quiet, and you’ll be okay.” Western governments, social media titans and leaders of academia all seem to be heeding Atta’s instructions, demanding that ordinary people stay quiet in the face of the mortal peril of Islamic jihad in all its forms.
The book is sweeping in scope, but it’s really about a choice that the West is facing between moral cowardice and courage. Spencer details the struggles of many heroes of the counter-jihad, and I’d like to mention some of them: Pamela Geller, Geert Wilders, Elisabeth Sabaditsch Wolff, Salman Rushdie, Oriana Fallaci, Ezra Levant, Mark Steyn, Nonie Darwish, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and David Horowitz, among many others.
Ultimately the fate of Western civilization will depend on individual personal courage. We all know the danger that we face from the diabolical 1,400-year-old conquest strategy known as Islam, but most people (and the institutions they too often sadly lead) are moral cowards who prefer to pretend that evil is good and good is evil, rather than grasp the nettle of truth, because people of genuine good will don’t threaten, ultimately, to behead them. These moral cowards, if allowed to stand in the way of the counter-jihad, will bequeath a brutal and irreversible dark age of Islamic tyranny to future generations.
Now is the time for heroes to stand up, and Robert Spencer, who has faced countless character smears, personal attacks, a failed terror plot in Garland Texas and even a recent poisoning attempt in Iceland, is one of the giants.
