Media spins Islam then and now: Sharia Law, our U.S. Constitution are not compatible. Moral relativism, tolerance to the point of ignorance will result in national suicide
"We Muslims are one family even though we live under different governments and in various regions." -- Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, leader of Iran's revolution
Thirty-seven years ago, Time magazine dedicated its cover to "Islam, The Militant Revival," and published a lengthy article, "The World of Islam," in which John A. Meyer wrote, "We want to examine Islam's resurgence, not simply as another faith but as a political force and potent third ideology competing with Marxism and Western culture in the world today." It was April 16, 1979.
The editor, Marguerite Johnson, penned the cover story because "the Iranian revolution has made it especially important for Westerners to understand the driving energy and devotion Islam commands from so many."
