RAED SALLAH

This quotation has been used to illustrate a number of points. First is illustrates the fundamentalist Islamic view, not terribly different from a fundamentalist Christian view, that God punishes man for his sins be producing natural disasters. Second that the foreign policy of America is sinful per se. However, what is interesting is that Sallah is an Israeli citizen who not only heads a movement opposed to Israel but like any other Israeli citizen has a freedom of the press the is unknown in any Islamic country. Sallah and his Muslim coreligionists living in Israel, together with the Muslims living in the hated West, are the only Muslims in the world who have total freedom of speech, thought, expression and conscience.
