Courageous journalist Nadine Al-Budair
Another addition to the real-life League of Extraordinary Women! Muslim journalist Nadine Al-Budair, writing in a Kuwait newspaper, displayed more courage than 90% of American reporters. Al-Budair criticized the Muslim World over its continuing attempt to blame the Western World for its problems, problems which go back over 1,000 years.
Nadine pointed out that the Muslim world is long overdue for some collective introspection of its own instead of always pointing the finger elsewhere.
“It is strange that we condemn instead of apologizing to the world,” Al-Budair wrote.
She further stated that claims made by Muslims that those who commit terrorism do not represent Islam are “farces” and are “pathetic” attempts to absolve Muslims of guilt.
“It is strange that we [Muslims] believe we have the right to condemn such statements (criticism of Islam) rather than address the implications of some of our extremist curricula, our education, and our regimes, and be ashamed [of them]… It is strange that we condemn [the West] instead of addressing what is happening in our midst – the extremist ways in which we interpret the shari’a and our reactionary attitudes towards each other and the world.”
Needless to say the political left around the world will – as usual – ignore all Muslims like Nadine who want to live in the 21st Century. The Democratic Party here in the U.S. won’t invite her to the White House, and the emotional cripples on our college campuses will find her “problematic” and won’t let her speak. She’ll be dismissed as “a Western Triumphalist” and will be accused of “internalizing Western oppression.”
To the left ONLY Muslims who take offense at drawings of Muhammad, ONLY Muslims who want to live in the past and who hate the West matter. You’ll notice the left won’t even present public debates between Muslims who prefer the modern world and Muslims who prefer to live in the 7th Century. Doing so would prevent them from trying to make people think that hate-filled Muslim versions of Al Sharpton represent how all Muslims feel.

Sweet! u go girl!
You said it!
Wonderful to see women brave enough to do this!
I certainly agree!
Well, “The Left” YOU talk about, are the politically correct people on the Left.
I agree they exist – I criticize them every day – but THEY are not the majority on the Left.
The LEFT is still PROGRESSIVE, and certainly the Leftists in my country, and myself, support this brave muslim woman.
Progressive people unite ! I am not religious myself, but I support freedom of speech and freedom of worship.

Hello! I’m glad to hear that’s how the left is in Belgium but here in the U.S. the left have become the most gutless hypocrites imaginable. They’ve lost any trace of individuality, too.
But it’s good to hear that it’s not the same where you are.
If only more people like Nadine come out and dare to say the truth. The truth about millions of Christians who have been and still being terrorized by Muslims in the ME. Whenever someone mentions this fact he is reminded of the crusades but that is ancient history and do you deal with it by repeating the same thing?
The question is why before the crusades, the Christians in ME have been converted by the sword to Islam or forced to live as infidels as 2nd class citizens??? It is history and no one can hide it…it’s a plague that continues to grow mutates into several versions, the latest being ISIS and Hizballah.
I agree with you, especially about the tiresome way people think mentioning the Crusades has any relevance. The non-Muslim world has become much more civilized since then but the Muslim World is still living in the past.
Plus I’m sick of people ignoring Muslim Colonialism and their centuries of involvement in the slave trade (which continues to this day). Plus Islam’s treatment of women, gay people and ethnic & religious minorities continues to be atrocious.
And the actual stable Muslim nations have a problem with wealth inequality that makes other countries seem like bastions of shared wealth.
The irony is that wealthy Muslim nations didn’t even accept the Syrian Muslim refugees making it a problem for Europe and the rest of the smaller neighboring countries like Lebanon and Jordan already having their own problems with floods of Syrians and Palestinians for the last 5 decades. Christians in those 2 countries are increasingly becoming minorities by the day and the worst is yet to come. Nobody is paying attention to this. The land where Christ was born and roamed in his lifetime will soon have no Christians. What do you call that???
It’s another colonization camouflaged as a humanitarian crisis. Western world politicians are afraid of saying the truth hoping for more votes during elections. It’s sad.
Yes, the political whores just keep jockeying for “the Muslim vote” but only those Muslims who hate the countries they’ve migrated to.
Islam is on dead fire war since 7th century till now. And most muslims said “its america fault”, “its jews fault”, “its kafir fault”, “its conspiracy”, “its islamophobia”… wtf
I know how you feel!

They will kill her for being brave enough to tell the truth!!!
Possibly, but too many people are letting fear stop them from saying what needs to be said about Islam.
Agreement. http://www.thenewstribune.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/article48644600.html
Good to hear it. I agree with your editorial, too.
Thanks Nadine. I wish you safety from the ignorant radical Muslim militia. It took guts to say what it right. Glen from New Jersey USA.
