"Religious scholar Reza Aslan took some serious issue on CNN Monday night with Bill Maher‘s commentary about Islamic violence and oppression. Maher ended his show last Friday by going after liberals for being silent about the violence and oppression that goes on in Muslim nations. Aslan said on CNN that Maher’s arguments are just very unsophisticated.
He said these “facile arguments” might sound good, but not all Muslim nations are the same. Aslan explained that female mutilation is an African problem, not a Muslim one, and there are Muslim-majority nations where women are treated better and there are even female leaders."* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Why is Aslan getting so much hate? He's straight up correct. It's an Arab culture problem, not a Muslim religion problem. I'm neither Arab nor Muslim and I understand this. Blaming Islam for how horrible Iran et al are is like blaming Christianity for how horrible Nazi Germany was, or blaming atheist for how evil North Korea is. Religion doesn't make governments evil, it's simply a convenient way to sway people to your perspective by slowly feeding them lies through the medium of something they hold dear. Christians do no make governments evil. Muslims do not make governments evil. Atheists do not make governments evil. Greed and misinformation make governments evil.

If Reza Aslan could sit down with someone like Bill O'Reilly and tear him to shreds (intellectually, mind you) for a couple of hours, he would sell out the biggest stadiums in the world. I really admire him for using all this knowledge he's acquired over the years to expose the prejudice of such high-profile people.

Gavan Cohen 1: The old Testament says almost word for word the same thing. 2: "Idoloters" was not meant to include Christians, Jews or Zoroastrrins. 3: There were rules of fair combat established, such as no killing of women, children or civilians. None of which excuses the killing of people based on religion. Killing people just because of their religion is never justified. But, a lot of things led up to Mohamed's war with the polytheists of Saudi Arabia. It should be read in context. And, of course, Jews and Christian did the same thing.

@txforyoux2347 9 лет назад

Gavan Cohen Where are Christians and Jews told to fight people until they become Christian or Jew (or pay a special tax)?.....Q9:29, on the other hand (or any of surah 9, hell, any of quran).........Can't speak for you, but I'd rather live next to the person who prays I accept their faith, than the nutjob who is told to convert me, tax me, or kill me, if I reject theirs......Yeah those are equal faiths, pretty much identical, why all the fuss right?

@txforyoux2347 9 лет назад

Amar Sahbi Taxes to government (in a non-Islamic state) have nothing to do with religion....LOL all religious followers taxed by government equally (in some countries, religious institutions aren't taxed at all, including muslim)....taxing based on income/wealth --- terrible comparison friend A good, pious, muslim government - they will tax you extra if you're not muslim, or throw you in jail if you refuse to pay jizya, or exile, or kill you.... I'll let you try again if you want

@txforyoux2347 9 лет назад

Amar Sahbi You're comparing apples to oranges to try and excuse the religiously sanctioned extortion of islam. Your cowardly false equivalency to penalties EVERYBODY might have to pay (regardless of faith), only shows you can't defend islam...I thought islam better than the west in all ways? Yet you have no problem with muslim government taxing non-muslims extra for refusing to convert to islam, but wanting to stay ALIVE - comparing it to possible jail time? And the Islamic penalties for refusing to pay jizya, are far more harsh than any secular governments would be....they'll seize your property, your wife, your kids....your life....... Show me what tax code is as equally despicable as Q9:29? Please answer

@txforyoux2347 9 лет назад

Amar Sahbi You're trying to equivocate, so let me help you: Islamic Govt: Taxes all, plus it taxes non-muslims extra to remain alive and in the house of islam Secular Govt: Taxes all - based on income/wealth, irrelevant of faith Islamic penalty for refusal to pay jizya, or leave the land: death, enslavement, ...exile if you're lucky Secular penalty for refusal to pay taxes or leave the land: possible jail time, fine, probation, maybe deportation The question isn't why there is punishment for not paying taxes, quit trying to redefine it - The question is why islam singles out non-muslims to pay extra tax, simply for not being muslim, and wanting to stay alive?

@LoveSoLost 9 лет назад

Give a good reason why anyone should pour their efforts into religious books based on tripe, and you may start to have a point here. Is it not the case that the vast majority of the wrong done around the globe is in part due to religious enabling; that someone got it in their head that God was on their side, or told them to do something revolting? Islam, Judaism, Christian, Catholic, who gives a damn? They're all man made, and all equal glimpses of the same untruth.

Pro Jektor For one knowledge, is there a disadvantage in acquiring knowledge on a particular relevant subject? And two because religion/Islam has an important role to play when talking about Middle Eastern politics. Therefore a more civilised, nuanced understanding of Islam gives you a better understanding of the region. I get it. It's all a load of rubbish so why bother study a bunch of fairy tales?

@shocco 9 лет назад

simoneleone Religious people know their texts, atheists don't and make no serious attempt to like Pro Jektor proved. The Atheist understanding of religion is superficial, ignorant, unsophisticated, and largely based on conjecture. This is because the atheist deliberately takes the most cynical perspective on religion to justify their disbelief in God. So I can't take their views seriously when religion and politics are intertwined to come pursue any kind of objective truth.

Muslim women had the right to vote since prophet Mohamed when did America allow women to vote ??

@tsunami770 5 лет назад

Really? Can they vote to choose to not wear a Hijab if they want to in Iran? Can they choose to walk unaccompanied by a male as well? Can they choose to leave Islam without any repercussions? You need not answer. We both know women are the property of their husbands and even if they are allowed to vote, it is a vote only as to who is the next oppressive theocrat to run their lives, never a vote for true emancipation or freedom and that's all there is to it. In fact, a woman in Islam does not even have the right to divorce her husband unless he approves it first (talaq). So what is this lie you are trying to pass on us here about America? America in 200 years has advanced more than Islam in 1200.

dstacey331 As an atheist who has made RU-vid videos about the mistaken thoughts of theists, I feel compelled to agree... but it's not entirely accurate. Belief in a god without evidence is certainly foolish if you value truth, but I imagine that theists like Reza value several things more than truth. He has publicly admitted that he doesn't agree with many of the thoughts and tenants of his fellow Muslims, but the errancy of his scripture still hasn't caused him to dismiss his faith because it's not all about whether his holy book is mistaken or even whether his god really exists.

@throwinhard 9 лет назад

Shouldn't truth be the most important value? To believe something contrary to facts or evidence is the very definition of irrational.

dstacey331 Yeah, _we_ believe that truth ought to be most valued, which is why we're atheists. But there's nothing objectively more valuable about truth than things that aid survival such as social reputation or advancing one's career. Is John Green of the Vlogbrothers irrational? How about Francis Collins of the Human Genome project? It's true that irrationality and theism have a close relationship, but I don't believe that you have to be irrational to believe in a god.

whois wat more muslim women in india are raped in india more than anywhere else in the world. Its the indian mecia Who hides it all under the carpet

@jblock2490 9 лет назад

whois wat By religion, Buddhist and Jain women reported the lowest prevalence of sexual violence in their lifetime (3 and 4 percent), while 5% of Sikh women, 6% of Christian women and 8% of Hindu women reported experiencing sexual violence. The highest prevalence rate (11%) of lifetime sexual violence was reported by Muslim women. A 2014 study in The Lancet states, "Whereas an 8·5% prevalence of sexual violence in the country [India] is among the lowest in the world, it is estimated to affect 27·5 million women in India [given India's large population]". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_in_India en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_in_India#cite_note-nfhs2-72 Citation number 72 has the PDF source for that 11% statistic. I'm not comparing this to other countries but it would seem that rape is a huge problem in India, particularly for Muslim women.

@anandc8999 8 лет назад

***** The rape rate in India is 1.8 per 100,000 people. In the US, it is 27.3. The UK is at 24.1 and Pakistan at 28.8. I am not making these up. You may Google for official data any time. Yes, some people, anecdotally, cite under-reporting in India. Sorry, that does not explain the 1200% to 1500% difference between rape rate in India and the the countries above. Actually, India as a society is so sensitive when dealing with such incidents that it is the only major country that discusses rape as headline news on prime-time television. It makes those who don't look at data feel like India is some kind of haven for rapists. The truth is much the opposite.

@Little_Lizard 8 лет назад

Anand C Are you fucking kidding me?! The only reason the statistics are in your favour is because Indians do not report rape! This is because of the stigma surrounding it, as in India it is perfectly acceptable to blame the victim, if not kill them. If you honestly believe the U.S. has more crime than that third world shit hole than you're living in a fantasy world.

@anandc8999 8 лет назад

Jack Daniel Huh, I have heard the under-reporting argument before. Sorry, it does not explain the rape rate in the US being more than 1400% higher than that of India's. Do you have any cold hard numbers based on cold hard research that can explain the gargantuan difference between the rape rates? If not, you are just one of the countless people from the western world who have fallen prey to media frenzy and anecdotal hearsay about India. Next time, you could do well to check facts and numbers. I say again that India is the only major country which, as a society, is so outraged by rape incidents that they discuss these incidents as headline news on prime-time television. The western media picks it up and a narrative is built that India is a haven for rapists. This explains your grossly fallacious perception too even though the opposite is true i.e. India is the only major society that treats this issue so sensitively and that the rape rate itself is dramatically lower (about 1200% to 1400% and more) than that in major nations of the western world.

And you also know, being an intelligent person, that there was context around his statement. It wasn't a blanket statement that women don't have an issues, it was within the context of Muslims oppressing women (which they do not in India).

+Kimberley Ford You're totally off topic. Rape in India is in no way an Islamic issue. That's the point he was trying to make. There are Muslim women in India and they have no external force/ state enforcing laws that are almost medieval, like Saudi Arabia. The state of women in India these days is that they're a 100% equal to men. I can confirm this because I live in India and don't get my facts from CNN or Fox News. Rape on the other hand in India is exactly similar to how rape is a problem in the United States, South Africa or Sweden. (Look this up) So, you need to be equally surprised if I say that "the state of women is great in United States".

@hebber1961 9 лет назад

***** Well, I beg to differ. Numerous learned people who know the Quran say it definitely CAN be used in very negative ways. The problem is that too many muslims and muslim countries allow the fundamentalists to run the show. So called "moderates" have done little or nothing to stop this. They've allowed it to intermingle if not dominate their politics. As I've said to others, western nations took control of the Christian fundamentalists long ago. We've made their violent "by the book" religious laws socially unacceptable and illegal. They still have too much say in my opinion but at least we don't let them burn people for being witches and other nonsense.

I really don't think people's religion is a good way to judge whether they will do bad things to others.

@geneanthony3421 8 лет назад

Duncan Wallace what Christian country murdered thousands of people for religious reasons? As Christopher Hitchens used to say if left to their own accord good people will do good, bad people will do bad, for good people to do wicked things that requires religion.

@geneanthony3421 8 лет назад

Duncan Wallace not in love with Christians I just don't like how a lot of people are trying to make a 1 to 1 comparison between the groups. If you take Christianity's past into account than yes it's fair, don't know about today. It's not that Muslims are all violent it's that if you are going to saw someone's head off for religious beliefs people can pretty much guess you're Muslim. What annoys me about a lot of left leaning people is that they're quick to lump groups when it's convenient to their narrative but they then want to tell others not to judge groups by an individual when it's convenient.

@duncanwallace7760 8 лет назад

Gene Anthony That's a great point. Everyone, left or right, should be careful about lumping groups together. Muslims are getting a very bad time of it at the moment, when in fact they're the ones who are suffering the most from the violence. I suspect people living in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan are thoroughly sick of people like ISIS or the Taliban using religion as an excuse to do terrible things.

John Waas Your understanding of Indonesian politics seems to be zero on why Aceh is the way they are. It's like the US is judged entirely by its worst state. Except Aceh, women elsewhere in Indonesia are allowed to drive, ride motorcycles, buy houses, work as CEOs, governmental ministers, public service officers and they can also wear whatever the hell they want. And our constitution is based on 6 government-sanctioned religion i.e Islam, Protestantism, Roman Catholicism, Hinduism, Confucianism and Buddism and the law of the land (except Aceh) is secular and does not favor one religion over the other. Even though the LGBT communities are not celebrated, they are not banned either and there are even parks in central Jakarta where transgender communities freely mingle. Lastly, we have had a female president. Can't say the same for the US.

Ethiopia over 32 million people or 43.5% were reported to be Ethiopian Orthodox Christians, over 25 million or 33.9% were reported to be Muslim, yes that's all true, BUT cutting of a CLIT is a MUSLIM PRACTICE...

@MrQaswara 9 лет назад

Can I get a citation from the Quran or the authentic hadith that says women's "clits" must be cut? You are extremely ignorant on the matter because this practice predates Islam by a few thousand years.

@ChrissonatorOFL 9 лет назад

Qas Wara In the Muslim countries where it is practiced, FGM is often justified by a controversial saying attributed to Mohammed that seem to favor sunna circumcision involving "minor" cutting of the clitoris. The authenticity of these sayings are unconfirmed, and some scholars have refuted them. Even if true, they only permit the practice; they do not mandate it. Of course, I would consider the non-consensual removal of anything without absolute medical need from anyone "harmful." In July, 1997 the Egyptian government overturned a ban on the practice of FGM. This event was celebrated by some Muslim figures, particularly Sheikh Youssef al-Badri, an outspoken proponent of the circumcision of Muslim women. Later the ban was reinstated, an act celebrated now by feminists and under assault by a few Muslim activists, again, led by Sheikh al-Badri.

@MrQaswara 9 лет назад

***** Of coarse it matters when it started. It simply is not part of Islam at all. You also failed to provide a citation. Oh and by your logic, we need to call it a christian practice because this practice is popular in central and south african countries where the majority are christians, while muslims are minorities in those nations. Also, Im sure there are some atheists who live in africa who also participate in this action, does this mean we should also call it an atheist practice?

@ChrissonatorOFL 9 лет назад

Qas Wara Shame on those atheists that possibly do. As most atheists, including myself, abhor MGM/FGM as being an absolutely unnecessary practice, outside absolute medical need, where all non-medical alternatives have been explored. Most cultures that still do circumcisions, do it due to one of two reasons: religion or obsolete medical education.. An atheist supporting it would probably fall into the latter category.

Maher's three main points, as I understood them, were: 1) Liberals who advocate equal rights for women and LGBT people at home are often too reluctant to condemn cultures that oppress those groups. 2) Criticism of Islam should be allowed, and should not be conflated with bigotry toward Muslims. 3) “Extremist” views are not held by a small minority of Muslims, but rather by a plurality of citizens in many, if not most, Muslim countries. Tell me why this doesn't make sense?

@djunior874 9 лет назад

***** Everyone should have the ability to criticise any religious beliefs, just like anyone has the right to criticise political beliefs; it's no different.

@djunior874 9 лет назад

***** What?! Are you proposing some kind of fascistic authoritarian regime where nobody is allowed to criticise anybody? It's called FREEDOM OF SPEECH. It is my RIGHT to criticise whoever i goddamn well like. If a religious nutjob believes the Earth was made in seven days by a magical fairy in the sky then I am going to goddamn well criticise that! Religious beliefs should be no more protected than any other beliefs. What if I told you I believe in unicorns? Or Santa Claus? You would laugh at me, criticise me, but those would be my beliefs. Don't you see? Criticism and judgement of beliefs through reason, logic and evidence is the way forward, not keeping our mouths shut and letting ignorance run rife. Oh and by the way, religions criticise gay people for being gay all the time, so yes, I will criticise religion.

@djunior874 9 лет назад

***** Guess what, countries with freedom of speech are not shitholes, while those without freedom of speech ARE shitholes. You DO NOT have the right to NOT BE offended. I am allowed to offend you as much as I want, as long as it is not harrassment, hate speech or threatening. So I will insult your, or any other religion as much as I so well please.

Come on, in USA there were SLAVES and women could not vote even, the prejudices continued deeply well into 1970-s, although it is a Chirstian country. There people, who are head hunters and at the same time Christians, and for some reason, not too many people make generalizations about Christians in such a manner; but once the topic goes to Islam, then foam emerges..

Perhaps Bill Maher is inaccurate on his criticism of Islam but Azlan cherry picks Countries with different policies to defend Islam and prevent the generalization of the many flaws of this religion......This kind of defense always prevents the conversation to be constructive.

@zaryabnadeem2175 7 лет назад

There are no "flaws" in any religion. There are only flaws in interpretation. There are flaws in how religion is followed. Any abstract concept of morality (objective or subjective) indirectly stems from some form of religious idea. In Islam, violence is shunned. But yes, defensive combat when it comes to protecting the Islamic institution exists. Islam teaches man to save human beings. Saving one human being is equivalent to saving all of humankind, in the Qur'an. Atheists and agnostics have their own interpretation of "non faith". Ironically, they don't have any "objective" baseline scripture or mandate or listed set of ideas that states exactly what their beliefs are. It's all in the air to be honest. Criticizing is easy when you have nothing to support and nothing to understand except for sensory dimensions of reality.

octavius simplicitous Basically the entire second and third paragraph was about the dumbest fucking thing you can do to an argument. Combine ad hominem, red herring (irrelevant points to shift focus from the argument), and strawman (misconceive the argument and rebut incorrectly because in a way that's more convenient for you) all in one. Don't do that. All you've done is _kind of_ loosened up the argument for one country, Bangladesh, _maybe,_ although not so much for Turkey, considering almost all the contemporary politics there only adds to vestige against your side of the argument, and nothing about the second half of my comment, although you talk as if my objective rebuttal is still wrong. But what the hell was the rest for? You have no idea what you're talking about, you're just ranting at some made-up image in your head you've developed for anyone that says "There's evidence this stuff isn't really a good idea". It's very simple --Stop ignoring the evidence that the farther you are from the fundamentals of really any of the three main monotheistic religions, the more civilized society on average you have, and don't be hypocritical by having your own blanket statements in your head to preconceive people as "hateful bigots".

Rezlan failed to point out that the bi laws of local government in Indonisia have ignored the national government and huge discrimination and human rights violations against woman are still the norm. The problem with both Maher and Rezlan is the they both leave out the facts that don't suit their own agenda. Not having a go at either of them as I think they are both ok. This always happens in the media. I will say that I regard myself left leaning but getting more and more frustrated with TYT. They are getting more like a left version of Fox news. Bias championing without fact checking. C'mon guys, you have to be better than this.

@franfred12 9 лет назад

I agree. I also think that the title of the video ("Bill Maher destroyed again and again"), along with the alleged "ass whoopings" against Maher prove your point. How can Maher get "destroyed" or "ass whooped" if he isn't able to defend his POV and reply? These would be valid claims if it were a debate and Maher did indeed fail to give adequate responses.

@filmpunksdailies8637 9 лет назад

Well, within context, Reza had the task of trying to get two people to understand that the questions they were asking and abuses they were pointing out were too general. Remember he himself said "we're not having this conversation in any legitimate way." I'm sure he could have gotten to that but the hosts kept pressing the same issue incorrectly. I think that is a great question that the host never asked him. And why be frustrated with TYT? For them, I believe what made this a story wasn't about the specifics of the facts left out, but but the behavior of the CNN interviewers/speakers towards their guest and the fact that they were wrong.

@walterhanagriffiii2110 9 лет назад

Another thing about Indonesia is that while it is the largest "muslim" government, it considers itself secular, not muslim, though of course islam does have its strong influence. But really, its called a muslim country because it has so many muslims in it, but if you are here, which I am, you will see that they are also one of the more liberal, and therefore hypocritical muslim countries around. But on another point, Indonesia has come out against extremism consistantly, which is to be expected from a secular liberal country. Islam here is becoming like christianity in europe and I suspect that in the next 10 years it will be a muslim country in inheritance only, not practice.

@Damon242 9 лет назад

If the journalists simply stopped saying "Muslim countries" then he would have addressed their questions and presumably the issues you have pointed out, however, the entire interview was stuck on the issue of them addressing the problem as a Muslim problem rather than simply attributing responsibility to the countries involved.

***** Yes. I considered that years ago when I was a teenager. Then, I became an adult. Of course you can practice science and also praise your god of choice, but it would be more consistent to apply the scientific method in all areas of life. The default position is to say "I don't know." Once you make that leap of faith and start believing in the supernatural, you lose your critical thinking credibility. It's no coincidence most people become part of the religion they were brought up in, and they can't all be right. That fact alone should be enough for people to realize how silly it is to divide ourselves by what god(s) we believe in or don't believe in, but culture is so intertwined in most religion that it complicates the enlightenment process.

@fenderbiz 9 лет назад

***** Because once you become a believer, you are making a claim to know something that is currently unknowable, not to mention all the evidence against any kind of intervening force. Deism is a different argument, but most religious people claim to be theist which is completely unscientific.

@fenderbiz 9 лет назад

@deathByStupid 9 лет назад

I have got to disagree with Aslan here he is saying Islam is blameless because Turkey and Indonesia are "progressive", but they are progressive despite their religion. Much like Christian nations are progressive despite their religion, European nations don't stone people for working on the Sabbath, they don't condone slavery, they allow women to speak in gatherings, they don't condone capital punishment for disrespecting ones parents. This is a result of civilisation looking at the bible and saying "hmm, yeah... no we aren't going to follow those completely insane rambling of ancient megalomaniacs." Christians can interpret things as "rejected by Jesus" or "just someones opinion" there are ample get out of jail cards for picking and choosing which beliefs you follow and which beliefs you ignore. Most Christians know that the gospels are written by 3 or 4th hand authors, at best they can be considered "divinely inspired". Meanwhile Muslims believe that the Quran is the actual word of god, as dictated by arch angel Gabriel to an illiterate Muhammed who transcribed it. You can't pass of things in the Quran as insane ramblings of desert shamans when you consider them dictated by god. The bad components of the Quran are much the same as the bad components of the Bible (slavery, violence, gender inequality). But this time all of it is dictated by god himself, so no matter what happens no matter how progressive the middle east becomes some people (including some Turks and Indonesians) want it to return to a fundamentalist interpretation of the word of god. In the end TYT are really hypocrites here, they get furious when fundamentalist christians act like fundamentalist christians (for example when they try to get abortion banned). But they give fundamentalist muslims who act like fundamentalist muslims a free pass. But let's not mince words here, if you follow the bible or the torah or the quran to the letter you are expected to behave in a way that is not compatible with modern civilisation. The primary difference between Jews and Christians is they ignore large swathes of their holy books while many Muslims do not. All fundamentalists of all 3 religions are fucking nuts, it just so happens that Islam has way more of them.

@gus5764 7 лет назад

Reza Aslan has a point and the journalists couldn't get past their training to understand it. Phrases like "in Muslim countries" have no context and is racist. They should name individual countries when talking about woman's rights or other extreme cultural points. How would Christians feel if someone took the most extreme conservative town in the south, in the most extreme conservative state and used that as an example of America. Reza is correct in that using a few examples to judge the entire group is the very definition of racism. I think that many racists just don't see their racism because they have never experienced it so how can they know? It's like if you were born blind, how can you know what color is, no matter how many times it's been explained to you, actually I don't think color can be explained to someone born blind. This is a shame because the journalists are educated people but being born into a society that allows racism against Muslims, it's hard to see the trees.

+Gus Islam isn't a race; it's a religion. In Muslim countries, men rape women and girls but if they marry them, they won't get punished. Apostasy is punishable by death. I think those two are far worse than racism and the fact that you can't understand why Aslan is wrong in every possible way makes you even worse than he is as you don't get logical fallacies.

@ryyaansheikh9422 6 лет назад

Daathaan Firstly, I find it interesting that you claim someone doesn’t understand logical fallacies in a derogatory manner when you in fact used one yourself. Secondly, I find it interesting that you cherrypick actions of “Muslims” to justify you insane generalization(s). If we generalize anything on its minority than such a minority is wrong. Also can you inform me of a religion that doesn’t have members who misinterpret or do unlawful acts in their religion, no you can’t. In Islam rape is unlawful. Death by apostasy isn't the norm and is only put in to action against those who commit major religious treason. Often the countries that do do this aren’t modern and break teachings of Islam. As said earlier, generalizing anything based on its minority is wrong. Lastly, I’m sure aslan, who has been praised by scholars who associate with multiple religions is absolutely wrong on everything. I doubt you will but can you please open a Quran, wether that be the Arabic or English version and read it, and then go see the interpretation of it in modern culture and societal standards. Then form an opinion.

@marykayryan7891 Год назад

Isn't it true that women got the right to drive in Saudi Arabia, thanks to the hard work of a woman activist and then ben Salman tried to take credit? If so, then they just said another incorrect thing about Islam. There are (at least) three parts to any religion anyway. The dogma or doctrine. The authority structure and the members. (And in the case of the huge religions there is also wide variability in these things by geography and across time.) These things are interactive but are ABSOLUTELY not the same thing. Many U.S. Catholics use contraception no matter what the Church might say, as an example. Question: why are we allowing a bigot like Bill Maher to have a platform at all and after 20 years of discussion about the complexities of Islam in the mainstream media, why are we back to blanket statements about the religion and its adherents?
