Readings On Islam

The readings below are provided to allow the reader the option of "politically incorrect" sources as to Islam as might counteract, for the thinker, the sugar coated presentations of the media, government officials, clergy, professors and others as to that Nazi like ideology. What is needed is a copy of the Koran and access to a public library. The last book listed is the best.
