    Muslims Put Tourniquet on Book 'Bleeding for Allah'

    "It is Aurelius' objective, almost scientific-method approach to the
    subject of Islam and its prophet Muhammad that apparently makes
    Muslims so uneasy. "

    NEW YORK, NY -- Every once in a while someone does something that
    really pisses-off a whole population of people. Markus Aurelius' book,
    "Bleeding for Allah: Why Islam will Conquer the Free World. What
    Americans need to Know", seems to have done just that. Millions of
    Muslims around the world are incensed by this smallish book and have
    responded en masse by having it banned in countries all across Africa
    and Asia.

    To see what the real deal was, I bought my own copy of "Bleeding for
    Allah" on Amazon.com and perused the paperback. At first glance, it
    doesn't seem to be significantly different than the host of other
    anti-Islamic texts that have recently flooded the bookstores. But it
    is the subtle differences between "Bleeding for Allah" and the other
    books that makes it so much more dangerous and insidious to the
    Muslims. To begin with, Aurelius was not an activist, politician,
    evangelist or recently enlightened ex-Muslim. He was an obscure
    scientist. Not a man with an agenda. In fact, it is clear that he
    initially read the Koran for intellectual insight and was so alarmed
    by its violence that he spent four years studying and writing about
    the subject.

    Actually, it is Aurelius' objective, almost scientific-method approach
    to the subject of Islam and its prophet Muhammad that apparently makes
    Muslims so uneasy. Using a detailed analysis of the Koran, down to the
    very number of hateful words employed in it, the author paints a hard
    to refute picture. By applying countless social and historical
    references (many of them Islamic), the author re-creates Muhammad's
    pragmatic approach to his own earthly success 1,300 years ago. No
    punches are pulled on the details of the Prophet's application of
    large scale murder, sexual slavery and scriptural creativity.

    The mountain of facts presented by the author in "Bleeding for Allah"
    clearly portrays Muhammad as a calculating and manipulative, albeit
    ingenious, fakir. This portrayal is a large element of the rage felt
    by Muslims against this book. However, the gruesome details that
    Aurelius employs in his graphic storytelling of the Muslim genocides
    waged against the Armenians, Bangladeshis and Sudanese pushes Muslims
    over the edge.

    Here is an excerpt from Amapedia.com that accurately reflects the
    issue: "Bleeding" takes the reader on a seriously provocative,
    sometimes overly bloody journey through time. It is this difficult,
    yet accurate voyage that has Muslims incensed throughout the Middle
    East. A quick internet search shows the level of resentment that this
    book has generated in the Islamic world."

    It can be seen why "Bleeding for Allah" is being so denigrated as to
    be labeled "The great book of lies". Muslims are viscerally desperate
    to defend their prophet and their own militant and imperialistic
    history. However, by banning the reading of any book, under penalty of
    prison or death, only illustrates how profoundly backward, intolerant
    and blind Islamists must truly be.

    Over 4 years in the making, "Bleeding for Allah" scrutinizes Islam
    from the very birth of the religion.
    The Koran, the Holy Book of more than one billion people
    worldwide, is systematically analyzed to reflect the true nature of
    its message. "Bleeding for Allah" goes the full distance in detailing
    the uncomfortable and painful truth of that message.
    Although touted as a peaceful religion and Islamic terrorists
    dismissed as misguided fanatics, it is clear that the very words of
    Allah, as voiced through the Archangel Gabriel to the Prophet
    Muhammad, are anything but peaceful. Markus Aurelius, in concise and
    clear fashion, gives countless examples of Koranic verse that readily
    demonstrates its militancy and violence.
    The author speaks to cultural bias and is quite sensitive to its
    influence on interpretation. But the author finds it extremely
    difficult to dismiss countless holy verse such as: "Believers, take
    neither the Jews nor the Christians for your friends." (Koran, 5:51)
    or: "Prophet, make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites, and deal
    sternly with them." (Koran, 66:9).
    To further try to eliminate cultural bias, the book includes a
    comparative analysis of specific words between the New Testament and
    the Koran. For example, the words "punishment" and "torture" appear
    600% more in the Koran while the word "love" appears 500% less.
    The author carefully examines the Prophet Muhammad's life and
    outlines the gruesome details of his explosive success in the 7th
    century. The shrewd Prophet creatively found divine support from Allah
    for his banditry and mass murder. Sadly, more than one billion people
    believe those words today.
    Americans are woefully in the dark regarding the Koran. But few
    Americans have taken the time to read the Koran itself. Markus
    Aurelius challenges the American public to do just that. "Bleeding for
    Allah" is the perfect primer.
