Today, as a part II to Nick’s two show series on sharia law and Islam in the west, Nick had special guest, Clare Lopez, who’s bio is below:

Part I is available here and is a call in show only with no guests, but some of the calls are interesting.
Enjoy.
The first 15 minutes (all I had the time to listen to today) were very interesting and put forward an idea that I hadn’t thought about, the idea that the Moslem brotherhood is under the control of the OIC had never occurred to me and I have never read about it anywhere. It makes sense and will probably make more after I get to listen to all of the interview.
Nick please keep up the good work
