The article also appeared in 'American Spectator'
Jan. 15, 2008
Award-winning author Mark Steyn has been summoned to appear before two Canadian Human Rights Commissions on vague allegations of "subject[ing] Canadian Muslims to hatred and contempt" and being "flagrantly Islamophobic" after Maclean's magazine published an excerpt from his book, America Alone.
The public inquisition of Steyn has triggered outrage among Canadians and Americans who value free speech, but it should not come as a surprise. Steyn's predicament is just the latest salvo in a campaign of legal actions designed to punish and silence the voices of anyone who speaks out against Islamism, Islamic terrorism, or its sources of financing.
*Mark Steyn's 'America Alone' is a fantastic book and it's doesn't just talk about muslims. It also discusses Europe's VERY low birth rates, and compares them to the US and Australia's birth rates. Steyn displays intelligence and knowledge of his subjects and mixes in humor as well.
This is just another attempt by Hadji to intimidate people and silence free speech. The word "Islamophobic" alone was created for this purpose. Mark Steyn is absolutely NOT alone and deserves every bit of support he gets and he certainly has mine.
