A world in crisis


THERE is a video, The Untold Story of Muslim Opinions and Demographics, anchored by Raheel Raza, that is making its rounds on the internet. It is sponsored by the Clarion Project which is known to be a US neo-conservative and right wing Israeli organisation that specialises in alarmist films and publications about “radical Islam”.

There is nothing unusual about such anti-Muslim tirades in the Western media. What affected me is that this video was sent to me by an eminent, retired member of the Malaysian legal fraternity who on other occasions too has sent me virulently anti-Islamic materials. The video is so Islamophobic, that I feel compelled to narrate the other side of the story.
