  1. So there’s no evidence to suggest that his books influenced any terrorists, but the likes of Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller are often accused of stirring Islamaphobic hatred…..

    Mmmm… I would like to say what I usually think, that the whole World has gone mad, but fortunately it hasn’t. It’s just more evidence that the World is still sane but unfortunately is being run by the madmen!
    Hopefully, sanity will prevail one day when the warders take back control of the asylum and the lunatics are back in their straitjackets.
