Islam Uncensored: 14 Leaders: Liberals, Conservatives, Muslims, Jews, Atheists, Christians, & A Former CIA Director Reveal: What The Government & Media Won't Tell You About Islam Paperback – October 12, 2011
Purchase options and add-ons
Tired of the simplistic cultural conversation about the nature of Islam, the author set out to write a book about Islam that was unlike any other.
He interviewed fourteen leaders and experts on Islam that span the ideological spectrum within religion, politics, and worldview to get to the bottom of one of today’s most controversial and timely subjects. . .what is the nature of Islam.
The leaders interviewed are liberals and conservatives and represent every corner of the religious landscape including a radical Islamist, two Muslim reformers, Jews, Christians, and Atheists.
Other interviewees include a feminist, the son of one of the founders of Hamas, and even an ex CIA Director.
The author gets out of the way and lets the reader hear from these riveting personalities directly.
A great part of the appeal of this book is that the leaders and experts you are introduced to are not in agreement as to the nature of Islam-to the point that if they were put in a room and asked to define Islam, war might break out.
Yet, what these leaders who represent completely different religious and political orientations say in common about Islam is simply extraordinary and will quite likely shake your worldview.
This book is absolute must reading for anybody who wants to understand Islam beyond the usual simplistic messages you are fed about Islam from the media, government, and culture (“Islam is evil” and “Islam is a religion of peace”).

Some parts of this book seem pretty anecdotal and isolated. Everyone has a particular viewpoint. Everyone has a reason to hate Islam.
All that being said, I feel that this book had a wide-enough array of interviewees so that most of it could be credible. I am thankful that apostates and current Imams were interviewed. That made if so much more feasible as a text. Also, the secularist views helped to objectify the problem and further assure me that this wasn't just bashing Islam to bash Islam. There is validity behind the dangerous claims that these "crazy right-wingers" make.
It's hard to "love" the subject matter--in fact, it's detestable. The kicker is, it's the truth. I gave it 5 stars because the author had access to one of the worlds most heinous pushers of the drug known as islam.
Be safe, Jeff.
