The culture war is getting serious, with Newsweek giving only one religion a pass from its usual god is dead approach. Oh, no. We can't have an uppity formerly Muslim woman step out of her prescribed PC role---she's supposed to beat up on Western Civilization, not embrace it. LGF: "Newsweek Joins Islamists, Attacks Ayaan Hirsi Ali". This corroborated by Anne Applebaum, in her WaPo column on European attitudes to Hirsi Ali.
And the NY Times (via LGF) suggests the movie "Obsession" is propaganda, when most of it is just showing jihad recruitment tapes. So yeah, a lot of it is propaganda. Is that what you mean NY Times? I thought not.
They find critics who think the movie needs more context on the peaceful side of Islam, and so it shouldn't be shown at all. Well, the movie did cite that as a caveat. I know the NY Times was also sympathetic to IRA terrorists, but I don't remember them ever feeling they needed to write long paragraphs about the great contributions of the Catholic church throughout history in any story on the IRA. And if the Catholic church were still indulging in The Inquisition I can't imagine the NY Times giving them any kind of pass.
It's the Jihad Apologist Press gone mainstream.
