You think you know about Islam, but did you know that Islam teaches that Muslims must wage war to impose Islamic law on non-Muslim states? Or that American Muslim groups are engaged in a huge cover-up of Islamic doctrine? These and other “politically incorrect” facts are revealed by Robert Spencer in The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades). Spencer traces the history of Islam, the teachings of the Qur’an, and the Crusades and reveals the myths and realities related to Islamic law, the treatment of women, and the continuing jihad.
This is a fast-paced, politically incorrect tour that you will not hear about in school or on the evening news, but it will give you all the information you need to understand the true nature of the global conflict America faces today.

“Politically Incorrect but Factually Correct as far as i can determine,one source being discussions with an Iraqi Christian i know. It’s laid out well and easy to digest, although you may feel a little nervous reading on public transport (: which is something to think about, why should you be?). Robert Spencer does not believe most Muslims have the immediate mindset that he discusses here, but his point is that it is Inherent in the teachings of Islam. (Wikipedia: While admitting that he believes many Muslims are peaceful and decent people, he believes Muslim reformists will have a very difficult time because “the radicals actually do have a stronger theoretical, theological, and legal basis within Islam for what they believe than the moderates do.”) This is by no means a definitive guide, you should read other books written by authors with other opinions. However you may not find so many that wear their heart on their sleeve so clearly. Most will be written under the guise of, or attempting, impartiality, few books are even mostly so. Unstated opinions and prejudices will therefore slip under your radar. This book in having a declared agenda enables you to engage with it’s opinions and arguments head on with open eyes. As such I thoroughly recommend this book.”
