The New Book that CAIR Does Not Want You to Read

Ex-Muslims risk death to condemn their former faith with new book, "Why We Left Islam: Former
Muslims Speak Out".
Los Angeles, CA (PRWeb) April 23, 2008 -- Twenty-three individuals share their heartbreaking, harrowing
personal accounts of leaving the Islamic faith in an eye-opening new book, "Why We Left Islam: Former
Muslims Speak Out" (WND Books, ISBN 9780979267109, April 29), compiled and edited by Susan Crimp and
Joel Richardson. The Council on American-Islam Relations, better known as CAIR, strongly condemned "Why
We Left Islam" in a recent New York Daily News article. CAIR cited not just the cover, the first from an
American publisher to feature a vivid, unveiled rendering of Mohammad, but the shocking true stories in which
former Muslims condemn their former faith at risk of death.

Islam, the world's fastest-growing religion, is a dangerous dead-end path, warn the contributors. "'Why We Left
Islam' shows the true face of Islam, a religion that will not live in peace with the non-Muslim world," according to
the editors. "When the Sudanese government jails a teacher because her pupils name a teddy bear Mohammad,
when mobs pillage and murder over cartoon depictions of their Prophet that are mild compared to the vicious
assaults our 'enlightened' media make on Jews and Christians, when an elderly nun dies because the Pope makes a
comment at a scholarly conference, it's past time for Westerners to learn the truth about Islam from those who
have escaped its yoke."

In the face not just of virulent criticism from CAIR and its media enablers but literal death threats from radical
Muslim leaders, the contributors share their shocking, disturbing stories:
* The former PLO terrorist who grew up dreaming of becoming a martyr for Islam but converted to Christianity
and now has a $10 million bounty on his head
* A survivor of the horrendous methods that are used on non-Muslim women to physically and emotionally
coerce them into converting to Islam
* An Iranian woman whose physician sister set herself on fire rather than submit to Iran's mullahs
* The young man whose own father delivered him to the authorities for leaving Islam, and the physical tortures
he endured at their hands
Attacks by CAIR are par for the course whenever the raw truths about Islam are revealed. In the Dailly News
article, CAIR's Ibrahim Hooper accused the publisher of the independent news site WorldNetDaily (WND) of
advocating the dropping of pigs' blood over Afghanistan, something which WND's Joseph Farah categorically
denies.

But such tactics are no surprise to 'Islam' editor Joel Richardson. "Whatever CAIR must do to take the focus off
the powerful, brutally honest testimonies contained in 'Why We Left Islam' they will do, but it doesn't change the
reality of Islam as reflected in this book -- a religion that is both brutal and unforgiving."

According to Daniel Pipes, founder and director of the Middle East Forum, "'Why We Left Islam: Former
Muslims Speak Out'" both documents and humanizes the tragedy of those born Muslims who wish to pursue their
conscience. Their stories are vivid and the political implications powerful."
