Customer Reviews

Bigoted trash and propaganda - all P.I.G. "Guides"
P.I.G. "Guides"?

I agree, they are guides....
....to smearing yourself with the product of the toilet of Hate Speech and calling yourself wise.


Just biased, right wing trash to help simpletons justify their bigotry. I don't mind it being on the internet, we can order the "Tubgirl" video and other stuff of the same value to literature. What I don't like is how they are stocked in RL book stores. They tend to not carry anything I really like, too much I have to order from the net. BUT, these books, more right wing trash, "Christian" literature and other toilet paper are on the shelves. And you know what..? Even though I'm in a so-called "Red" state, the "Right Wing" literature tends to gather dust on the bookstore shelves. They don't sell it, but keep it on the shelves. Their target audience gets all their "Bigotry Re-enforcement" from talk radio and US$20 is 1/8th their truck's weekly gas bill or a lot of cheap beer.

Let this trash stay here, but it's time to tell the bookstores, by letter, by e-mail, by talks to the manager that we'll vote with our WALLETS if they don't take them out. Oh, and yes, I did read through them till I was about ready to puke.

Required reading for every American
Let me add my voice in support of all of the others who have given this book 5 stars. The message of this book is very much non-PC and one we would rather not hear but for those of us who espouse Western values such as democracy and equality of rights for every human being this book is a necessary read. The strength of the book is its documentation. All of the books assertions about Islam are well supported with references to the Koran and other Islamic sources. It should be required reading for every American, especially our elected leaders and members of the press. There is a lot of information packed in this book and I could only take in a chapter or two at a time in order to assimilate the main concepts. Some may find the section on the Crusades slow going. My advice is to persevere. It is well worth it. Many will not like the message but rather than attack Mr. Spencer, please point out where exactly he has gotten it wrong. It doesnt appear that he has. He has made a compelling case.

This book is a great first step in understanding the forces that seek to destroy the US and subvert western ideals. I look forward to reading other books by Mr. Spencer and authors such as Andrew Bostom, Wallid Pharis, Bat Ye'or, and Ibn Warriq to name a few. Mr. Spencer is a true patriot in writing this book. His website Jihadwatch.org is one of several that is an excellent site for rational analysis of the current threat to the west.

PURE PROPAGANDA
This is pure propaganda and misinformation to create hate. Robert Spencer is openly Islamophobic racist and don't know basic facts about Islam and Muslims. The reason why this book was written was to make money.
