More copies of this ISBN:Now They Call Me Infidel: Why I Renounced Jihad for America, Israel, and the War on Terrorby Nonie Darwish
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:A political and personal odyssey from hatred to love When Nonie Darwish was a girl of eight, her father died while leading covert attacks on Israel. A high-ranking Egyptian military officer stationed with his family in Gaza, he was considered a "shahid," a martyr for jihad. Yet at an early age, Darwish developed a skeptical eye about her own Muslim culture and upbringing. Why the love of violence and hatred of Jews and Christians? Why the tolerance of glaring social injustices? Why blame America and Israel for everything? Today Darwish thrives as an American citizen, a Christian, a conservative Republican, and an advocate for Israel. To many, she is now an infidel. But she is risking her comfort and her safety to reveal the many politically incorrect truths about Muslim culture that she knows firsthand. Synopsis:In this fascinating book, Darwish speaks out against the dark side of her native culture--women abused by Islamic traditions, the poor and uneducated mistreated by the elites, and bribery and corruption as a way of life. She calls on the Arab world to embrace the values of democracy, respect for women, and tolerance for all religions. About the AuthorNonie Dar wish was born in Cairo and spent her childhood in Egypt and Gaza. Before immigrating to America in 1978, she worked as a journalist in Egypt. Darwish now leads the group Arabs for Israel and lectures around the country. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
