BreakPoint | The Trouble with Islam
Which brings me back to Saudi Arabia. In her book, Manji asks a question that infuriates mainstream Muslim groups: "Who is the real colonizer of Muslims-”America or Arabia?" According to Manji, many of mainstream Islam's worst features, like its treatment of women and its "deep-seated anti-Semitism," are the product of "Arab Imperialism."
I think it's a good sign that Muslims are self-examining Islam. They are the ones that can make the changes that are needed. I don't trust anyone who is "anti-semitic" just like I don't trust anyone who's anti-Black or anti-Asian.
