sConfessions of an Islamophobe” by Robert Spencer; Bombardier Press (Nov. 2017).
“Islamophobia” has been defined as “an unwarranted/irrational fear of Islam”, and, thereby, an “Islamophobe” is one who “irrationally” fears Islam – a defaming word spewed out by those who wish to divert attention of the war-oriented ayat (verses) in either the Qur’an/Koran or the ahadith (the utterances of the Islam prophet Muhammad). However, this book’s author (Mr. Spencer) has repeatedly demonstrated in his many other books that educated, sane people are indeed rational in recognizing that Islam birthed the militant Islam or jihadist Islam that terrorizes non-Muslims, i.e., infidels -- “kafir” [Arabic] or “kafar” [Persian].
This book recounts the author’s original youthful, innocent inquiry into Islam -- a journey that revealed to him Islam’s outright hatred of those who fail to kowtow to discriminatory Islamism. Upon discovering the darkness of Islamo-fascism, the author began writing and talking on the subject, and while his enlightenment was received well by some, his revelations about the militancy of the prophet Muhammad angered Islamists who wanted to keep the public ignorant of militant Islamism and the true underpinnings of jihad-suppressive Islam.
The author names those within even the U.S. government who tried to suppress his revelations by having him blackballed from speaking before various government audiences – as well as being banned by several European governments from being able to speak publicly to their distracted denizens.
Besides recounting his rebuffs, Mr. Spencer recounts how liberal Western media kowtow to jihad apologists in trying to hide Islamist attacks throughout Europe as being inspired by Muslim youths who are being suppressed by “right wing” racists, rather than by Islamic supremacist theology.
The author used to hate being called an “Islamophobe”, but he wears that labeling (p.6) with pride now in recognition of his efforts in heralding that the Islamist-jihad threat remains a threat today to women, gays, Jews, Christians, and to both secular liberals and secular-leaning Muslims. These groups are threatened by specific verses in the Quran that are revealed by the author.
As Mr. Spencer has noted his “endgame”: “I want free societies to continue and prosper. I don’t want to see future generations of American women subjugated, gays brutalized, Jews and Christians living in a harassed and precarious state” (p. 230). Let us join in rallying to Mr. Spencer’s challenge: “this Islamophobe is not ashamed, and will never be ashamed, of sounding the alarm” (p. 234).
