I understood from the authors that the book is not being translated because it's not PC and they could not find a publisher to publish it. It seems strange to me. I don't see a contradiction here.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697128144253268996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18600181.post-29201863647311271212008-11-17T05:44:00.000-08:002008-11-17T05:44:00.000-08:00Thanks for posting this summary.

You contradict yourself in an odd way, however:<BR/><BR/>"...but there are no plans to translate it into English, apparently due to political correctness. It is hard for me to understand why, as there are many books which are far less 'politically correct'. "<BR/><BR/>You can't really have it both ways.

Lack of commercial prospects, for example.Eric Gruninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13287622930819853693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18600181.post-11705723386286122992008-01-20T10:01:00.000-08:002008-01-20T10:01:00.000-08:00islam wants to introduce sharia law.
