Ayaan Hirsi Ali v Erdogan on Islam

Reader comment on item: Smoking Out Islamists via Extreme Vetting
in response to reader comment: Note that Hirsi Ali doesn't think even 'moderate Islam' is the answer

Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Mar 16, 2017 at 11:19

Ayaan Hirsi Ali is an amazing woman However she seems to be saying that Muslims should practice only Meccan Islam (From Meccan Suras) and disregard the nasty Medina Suras and for this I would say good luck

Erdogan is right there is only one Islam and that is indeed the problem
