ROME - A new book by controversial journalist Oriana Fallaci that hit bookstores here Monday accuses Europe of having sold its soul to what she describes as an Islamic invasion.



Entitled "The Strength of Reason," ("La Forza della Ragione" in Italian), the book also accuses the Roman Catholic Church of being too weak before the Muslim world.


"Europe becomes more and more a province of Islam, a colony of Islam. And Italy is an outpost of that province, a stronghold of that colony," the book says. "In each of our cities lies a second city: a Muslim city, a city run by the Quran. A stage in the Islamic expansionism."


The book comes more than two years after the Italian writer's best-selling essay "The Rage and The Pride" drew accusations Fallaci was inciting hatred against Muslims.


A group in France unsuccessfully sought to stop distribution of the book, while two other associations have requested that it carry a warning.


Fallaci, a former war correspondent who has lived in New York for the past decade, has become known for uncompromising interviews with such world leaders as former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat (news - web sites).

soon. but about america of course.

Been that way a few years now. :shrug:

She turned her relationship with an abusive man into a heroic diatribe.

I think she's a bit scary, to tell the truth.

Move over Ann Coulter.

Send her to Fallujah!

lazy fascists are just recycling the older works.. :eyes:

Muslim immigrants have taken same place in Italy as Mexicans in US. Italians rail against the "Morrocans" (as most all Muslims are called), yet continue to hire them to do the dirty work! Italy is a nation constantly on the verge of collapse. A book like this might just upset the balance, especially with the most recent Italian casualties in Iraq!

What a loon.
