Reader comment on item: Uncovering Early Islam
in response to reader comment: A truly Islamic reply to Rober Spencer's book ! "you dog, scumbag.I would not slash u, but cut you head off and hang it on the White House."

Ianus: "A Moslem from Australia has burnt 1200 books by Robert Spencer and threatens the author with a violent death."

I'd like to think it was true simply because of how it demonstrates to what idiotic extent such fanatics go to. And also because of the massive waste of money it would have been for him. The cheapest I can find 'Did Mohammed exist' is $17.27 on Amazon.

So 1200 copies is $20,724. And anyone buying such a large number of copies of a single title like that would have raised questions somewhere along the line and drawn attention to themselves. Are any muslims so stupid? Ok, I take it back - it could well have happened.
