Enemy formation against muslims is all too common today, but it's important to call bullshit on haters whenever we can, especially when they are slipping it into popular culture through entertainment mediums. Came across a link to a new novel by some guy named Brad Thor that he is touting as the "Islamic Da Vinci Code." Apparently, he had a book that made the best-seller list once.
He's trying to market his new anti-Islam book by claiming he's receiving "death threats." (yet he hasn't filed any reports with the police)
I went to his website and couldn't believe that in the background writeup of his new book there is a link to this website, which is as backward and hate filled as any Aryan supremacist group. Brad Thor and his book should fall outside the definition of normal, acceptable company for intelligent, peace-loving people.
Here's a helpful review of his new book from Amazon.com:
Brad Thor has done it again. As if "Blowback," his previous utter failure about Islam (not to be confused with Chalmers Johnson's excellent non-fiction book of the same name), was not bad enough, he decided to top it with something even dumber. Scot Harvath is back again in this jingoistic thriller, and yes, he is the "ideal American hero for a post-9/11 world"- and by that I mean he, and the author, are complete idiots. They both love America's policies just to death and share the same stupid ideas about terrorism as most Americans today. I could go on all day about how misguided this book is (a total free-fall from the beginning of his career), but instead I will merely leave you with a quote from the prequel to this latest debacle: "Not all Muslims are terrorists, but without fail all terrorists are Muslims." Yeah, he really said that. He can't possibly mean ALL terrorists- I mean, no one actually believes THAT. Maybe he just meant SUICIDE terrorists. In that case he is just as stupid as the rest of the American public. The number one suicide terrorist organization in history was the Marxist, atheist Tamil Tigers from Sri Lanka. Anyone who even spent a couple minutes with a book on the subject should know better.
PS: His big plot secret is a bust, too.
