Sharia vs Freedom - Another essential book from Andrew Bostom
Andrew Bostom has equipped us already with two towering texts which, in the interest of truth, uncover and map (1) Islam's history of warfare to spread its oppressive ideology, religion and power, and (2) its deeply rooted genocidal antisemitism:
The Legacy of Jihad: Islamic Holy War and the Fate of Non-Muslims
The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism: From Sacred Texts to Solemn History
As with other honest, clear-headed Islam scholars such as Bat Yeor, Raymond Ibrahim, Ibn Warraq, Mark Durie and Robert Spencer, Dr. Bostom patiently demonstrates both context and continuity in his expositions, and the disturbing conclusions about Islam which explode upon the reader lead naturally to this third work in his "Legacy" series:
Sharia versus Freedom: The Legacy of Islamic Totalitarianism
I look forward to this book, which I feel will find a much wider audience than his previous two, because it is so urgently applicable to the challenges which face us. Thank God for brave voices like Andrew Bostom who continue to labor to make the case that Islam is an implacable evil which must be defeated, theologically and philosophically on all fronts, and with force when necessary.
