for them.

of Islam.

This is the kind of strength and courage that will end this war, not the endless firings of rockets and mortars. If Arabs want peace, teach peace. Give 'em Hell, Wafa. You're a tough old broad.

One would have thought that with the death of Oriana Fallaci, the last great human has died. Thank you, Wafa Sultan, for proving me wrong.

To answer your questions: A) Wafa Sultan does not need to demonize Islam. The Islamists do a pretty good job of demonizing themselves through their use of intimidation, extortion and violence to control each other and anything else they can get their hands on. B) What is unique about her argument? The very fact that she has the guts to stand up and say what she thinks and feels is wrong about the religion in which she was brought up, as opposed to the Muslim mainstream, which continues to remain deafeningly silent.

I had the displeasure of hearing this woman on the TV, on both accounts she lost the debates, not only with the other debator, rather with the rest of the Arab world. Wafa's problem is not just with Islam, rather with herself of being an Arab, with a "backward" culture vs. the "progessive" western culture. Wafaa has a problem with "self delusional syndrome" that some Arabs develop when they come to the west, in that, they think that the only way to fit in the "judeo-Christian" culture is by one denoucing his/her own culture/self and become more royal than the queen...No wonder that Ynet and other fascist American institutes find her their darling. Being shocked by the death of her professor, running like a moron off a Sales man becuase he was an Israeli, then thinks that Israel is an "okay" state vs. Israel's crimes in Lebanon and Palestine, does, indeed, shows and reflects the state of mind (or lack of) of this woman in relation to the Arab/islamic domain. I can not wait for this woman to make her visit to the Zionist entity so she can glorify the "atchevments \" of the Zionists, so she will, eventually, finds herslef a spot in the gloriy walls, at Vad Yashim, besides political prostitutes such as Fouad Ajami! The more Zionist expose for this woman, the more she is "credible" in the Arab world...keep it up, Wafaa!

Olmert will be the winner; you will stop blaming him for series of failures, as you will be indulged in a much greater fiasco. Do not forget my comission for the advice; only 1,100,000 $. As you see, all will be winners; except you .

You know with respect to a Dr you are mentally challenged you dare to say that 99.99 % of Muslims are terrorist let me remind you who is killing Palestinians children each year more than 2000 children are killed each year. Let me remind you in 1948 on how many dead bodies did the Israel rise and the her prime Minster BEN GEORIAN used to be on the wanted list on soctlandyar for blowing up a hotel full of English intelligence. Let me remind you that 2 parties of the Jews settlers were considered on the terrorist list before joining the government "remind you of a recent thing" Let me remind you when the pope said to our beloved American president you are on a wholly mission and you are killing the children of iraq. Look buddy try to m read about era when Muslims reached Europe and stayed for 800 years where they build great civilizations where the remains which still exists till now. And sadly what happened to them after 1491 where millions of them where murdered by Catholic Church. Anyway although I do consider alqaeda is a terrorist group but that does mean I do forget who back them up when they where against the Russians (ring a bell).C I A And actually we do have a old saying that religion is not measured by the people because if it is then let me remind you of the Christianity dark ages. And what are the Jews doing in the name of there holocaust in Palestine but unfortunately you do not want to see that!!!!!!!!

1. (Islamists do a pretty good job of demonizing) This betrays your objectives for supporting wafa. 2. (what she thinks and feels is wrong about the religion in which she was brought up) This gives an idea about how superficial your thinking about Islam is. Islam is not an inherited religion; born to Muslim parents is not a guarantee for embracing Islam in the face of people and God. One has to accept Islam by himself. There is no rituals in Islam to “approve” that one is introduced to and embraced by Islam.

Who told you Muslims killed and raped Christains in Africa, do u mean Darfour? both of them are muslims, right. Or did you hear that from 700 Club, just don't be ignorant and blind idiot.

you do not need the opinions of others. When I pick up the newspapers, I read about suicide bombings in Iraq, terrorist attacks in Mumbai, Hamas killing Fatah and vice versa, and on and on. Just whom do you think is doing the job of making Islam look bad, Dr. Sultan? or, could it be that radical Islamists---and notice that I use the term Islamists, not Muslims,---by their behavior, are causing people in the West to form negative opinions about Islam? Also, like all religions, Islam is part of a culture, not just a belief system. Sorry, but the evidence does not bear you out that you have to embrace Islam to be influenced by its culture, a culture that includes the suppression of women's rights and the teaching of hatred towards non-Muslims. A culture that breeds hate will have that hate revisited upon it.

Her failure to pursue her medical carrier in US; was stemming from the fact that medical education in Syria is solely in Arabic. Her medical education did not match with the system in the US. That “pushed” her to prove herself and the best way in her view would be assuming fame and "fortune"; this is evident from her thinking "Better a mechanic in America than an engineer in Syria,"

Interesting you sign your comments: "y". Remember the children rhyme: y is a crooked letter and you cant make it straight? Thoughts as crroked as yours can be rehabilitated - try it some time and see how straight you will see the world!

A Muslim of the highest ethics endangers his life by condemning terrorism and supporting Israel. May G-D protect him and Wafa. Wall Street Journal Darkness in Dhaka - Bret Stephens As these lines are being written, Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury, a gadfly Bangladeshi journalist, is running for his life. Assuming he survives till Thursday, he will face charges of blasphemy, sedition, treason, and espionage in a Dhaka courtroom. His crime is to have tried to attend a writers' conference in Tel Aviv on how the media can foster world peace. If convicted, he could face the death penalty.

DRA DR SULTAN YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION NOT ONLY FOR MUSLIM WOMEN BUT FOR WOMEN THAT ARE OPERESSED IN EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD.

This woman is a true hero. I wish there were more muslims like her, specially here in Israel.

the (re)conclusion is that muslims are totally and completely mad. Those who wrote that muslims live in a fantasy(horror fantasy) ,are right. I don't see remedy for this tragedy called islam. I think the world let them strengthen too much,and now I really don't know how that horrific surrealism can be fixed.

yes, she is right. muslim people should come to the " light " she is showing by adapting casino , bars , alcohols, and ready to accept abuses to female with the rate of one abuse per 50 seconds as in USA. can she explains , is this the freedom, morderness , she is talking about?

yes with flowers and the leftover flesh , from the 500 lebanese kids you killed ; roasted by cluster bombs.

If Al jazeerah allowed this woman to voice her oppenion where millions of arabs can hear her, then maybe al jazeerah is not that bad after all..!!!

Of course, and that just proves her point. unfortunately,most Arabs are brain-washed. It's just what she's talking about. Great human being.

Your backwardness is exactly what she is talking about. You lie to yourselves and you refuse to see the truth. Just pathetic.

Rami, never try to prove something to people who are so entranched in their prejudiced beliefs, because you shake their belief system. So they'll never believe you. They will "interpret" the Jazeera event as follows: "She was invited on the Al Jazeera show to be ridiculed and used as a "punch bag". Yet she managed to wipe the interviewer and the other guest with the strength of her arguments. Some staff at Jazeera may have lost their job as a result.." I saw the video. OK, it takes lots of guts, one has to admit. but she was not debating during the show". I heard her barking so loud, that the poor cleric decided to give up.

The fact that you corrected me, but still say nothing about this article and nothing about Islam's stain on this planet shows a lot. Again you examplify the main problem in Islam...no one wants to hear or deal with the truth. Just deny everything, blame others and point fingers...that will certainly get you places. I believe it is you who is the Idiot!!!

What does all this rubbish have to do with Dr. Sultan's views, who happen to be the truth? Life is not perfect. It's astonishing how some people react to this brave person. If they don't agree with her, they try to find a "skeleton in her closet". Grow up, get out of the middle ages!! People have the right to be free thinkers. As to your comment about her not pursuing her medical career in the USA, people change directions in life. Telling the truth about Islam and what it does to people was more important to her than being a doctor. This is her life's mission, and a noble one I might add. Every word that came out of her mouth is the absolute truth. This is a remarkable human being. G-d should bless and guard her.

Dr. Wafa is a shame huh? How about all the other Muslims that come to the US, work hard, have normal lives and yes, they talk bad about the rest of Islam??? Are all these people who have PhD's, MD's, etc really that bad? Ask yourself how someone can come to the US and chgange their mind about their own country and culture...maybe it's becuase they realize that people here are nor bad or evil like they were taught to believe. The Us stands for freedom, something most countries where Muslims come from know nothing about. Wakie up and get your litlle head out of your ass man.

KOL HAKAVOD!! She is the best may G-D bless her!
