This book convincingly demonstrates that his view runs "counter to the mainstream of today's scholarly interpretation--a general consensus built upon decades of research, reflection, and debate."
Christian minorities having their churches closed, being forced to meet in tents, only to be persecuted again-- is not an “aberration” limited to Egypt’s Christians but occurs wherever Christians live under Muslim rule
Christianity is demonized and its history distorted by its usurping enemies: in the West, by a host of "isms"--including leftism, moral relativism, and multiculturalism--and in the Middle East, by Islam
Free and mighty West, refusing to use its powers--even in the name of self-preservation--while empowering an Islam that openly vows to, and will, subjugate the West
It may be hard to acknowledge an ugly truth—that Islam, not “radical Islam,” promotes hate for and violence against non-Muslims—but anything less will just continue to feed the lie, that is, continue to feed the jihad and terror.

Primary achievement of U.S. foreign policies in Muslim nations -- apart from wasted American blood and treasure -- is the unprecedented rise of Islamic forces bent on destroying America.
Trump’s assertion that “Islam hates us” is demonstrable by the words, teachings of the Koran, by the words and teachings of past and present Islamic clerics, and by the past and present actions of Muslims around the world
