icebear1965 is clearly a racist, driven by the same nativist agenda that has taxed the British far-right for the past 80 years. The idea that 'the meedja' is full of pro-Islamic anything is an abject fantasy, easily falsified by any semi-literate teenager. Philips is not one of the brave few. She is a national newspaper columnist who uses this platform to voice her extremist claptrap on an almost daily basis.

This book is filled with distortion and hyperbole. It would be tedious to point out every single example of the author (usually referred to in the UK as 'Mad Mel') being 'economical with the truth', so just to give one example, she mentions a protest march held by fanatics in response to the Danish cartoons affair and claims that there were thousands of marchers, whereas in fact, there were no more then a hundred protesters. This book didn't do well in the UK, because thankfully, Manichean Paranoia isn't as widespread in the UK as it sadly is in the US.
