... a place where Irf injects some much needed spice and chilli in discussions about Muslims.
I'll be posting more old stuff I've written elsewhere. Sometimes I'll add some comments but usually not.
My editor has almost finished editing my manuscript, so I'll be working on that for a fair while (as in 2 weeks or so).
After all that, hopefully this blog will have more original stuff. I'll be uploading more al-Jazeera videos from time to time also.
Enjoy!

I am "far-right" the way Geert Wilders ... is(Comment on a book review I wrote for The Australian. Mate, you said it. Who am I to argue with you?)
... I can see why Irfan Yusuf got the 2007 Allen & Unwin Iremonger
award for public affairs writing: he's slick.
A nasty attack by an Australian blogger named Irfan Yusuf has appeared(From an update on Mr Pipes' blog dated 21 February 2008. No, Mr Pipes, I would never jump on you. I just don't find you physically attractive!)
... Yusuf jumps on me ...
... should send a signal to responsible media everywhere to decline his tendentious writings.(I wonder if, by "responsible", he means that tiny fringe of newspapers and websites happy to print his claims that Barack Obama is a Muslim apostate and attended a madressa? Or that wearing a sarong is "a garment associated with Muslims"? Or that extremists make up 10-15% of the Muslim world population? Well, Mr Pipes, I wouldn't want to pollute my reputation by writing for those kinds of media. You can have them all, mate!)
