The Great Oriana Fallaci

Europe is no longer Europe, it is 'Eurabia,' a colony of Islam, where the Islamic invasion does not proceed only in a physical sense, but also in a mental and cultural sense. Servility to the invaders has poisoned democracy, with obvious consequences for the freedom of thought, and for the concept itself of liberty.

So says the great European author and thinker Oriana Fallaci, whom is under indictment in Italy for writing a book that - gasp! - was critical of Islam. In her seventies, living in New York while battling cancer, she spits sharply in the eyes of those whom would silence her:

"When I was given the news," Ms. Fallaci says of her recent indictment, "I laughed. Bitterly, of course, but I laughed. No amusement, no surprise, because the trial is nothing else but a demonstration that everything I've written is true."

She is in a black gloom about Europe and its future: "The increased presence of Muslims in Italy, and in Europe, is directly proportional to our loss of freedom."

A brave women and a great thinker, exiled from Europe for the expression of her thoughts in her book "The Force of Reason"...are these the great freedoms the EU is offering their citizens? My God, did France actually save Europe by starting a revolution against the constitution? Or is there yet far worse to come?
