Arab secularist tells it like it is.
This video came to me last week from one friend. Today it came returned on a second and third round.
The war will be won with words of wisdom, and scientific knowledge.
Any attempt at hate or blind-conviction will remain unheard.
With simple testimonail, placing herself under the public eye, Wafa Sultan speaks a voice of reason from with in what is widely percieved as a host of hate and violence.
She succseeds, because she is using an academic, learned discourse while using a clear and poetic language.
Arabic, when spoken in the formal (classic) form is quite poetic. Ms Sultan shows us in a blow of the word - rather than the sword - how cultural richness carries more weight that the whole army of terror backed up by their papparazzi.
I wish her all of my best, and would like to continue persuing a similar path of re-explaining our icons to different minds.
peace.
