My
favorite political writer: Oriana Fallaci
is
FrontPage Magazine's Woman of the Year!
Congratulation Oriana!!
"After spending most of the last century fighting against
fascism, Oriana Fallaci continues to demonstrate the enduring
grip of Orwellianism: she is to be tried in Italy for
thought-crime. For spending her childhood fighting Hitler and
Mussolini, and for dedicating the last four years of her life to
rousing the West to the danger posed by Islamofascism, she more
than merits designation as FrontPage Magazine’s Woman of the
Year."
Oriana Fallacie wir geächtet und geschmäht. Besonders linke
Versteher und Gutmenschen haben es auf sie abgesehen. Das
beeindruckt sie aber nicht sonderlich. Was wirft man ihr vor?
Lesen wir in Frontpage:
"Her crime? She exposed the threat of Islamic jihad – from without and
within. Europe, she wrote, is becoming “an Islamic province, an
Islamic colony.” Describing increasingly Muslim Europe, she wrote, “In
each of our cities lies a second city: a Muslim city, a city run by
the Quran.” When Shari’a rules certain areas of Christendom’s ancient
home continent, and French girls cannot go through certain Parisian
neighborhoods without wearing a burqa without fear of being raped, few
could argue with her insight.
She frankly says she is against Islam, not because she opposes
religious freedom, but because she believes in it. As she has said,
after 9/11, “they want to come impose it on me, on us.” She calls
herself “a Catholic atheist,” and she realizes the world cannot
survive half-secular and half-theocratic, anymore than it can survive
half-slave and half-free."
Rebellog ist proamerikanisch und fürchtet besonders um
amerikanische Freiheitswerte. Oriana Fallaci hat klar erkannt:
"The media, though, are not the all-important problem.
Most importantly in her view, Americans have lost their passion
for freedom. They have specifically lost The Rage and the Pride,
the patriotism that comes from being a believer in liberty and
the burning desire to protect our “Shining city upon a hill” at
all costs. That’s what she’s trying to stir, and the world will
be safer in 2006 if it catches spark from her flame."
