I agree and I am baffled by Pipes and many "Conservatives" on this issue

I don't get it. Robert Spencer has recently posted at least two or three detailed refutations of the defense of Perry on this particular issue. No one has put forth a counter-argument based on the evidence which he and Geller have provided.

And yet, absent such a counter-argument, they proceed to promulgate stances and viewpoints at odds with the facts of the case. It's bizarre. And not to be tolerated by those who respect elementary Reason.
