I wonder how Conservatives in the region view her and what she has written?

A very unique perspective among muslims, thanks for posting

Your response is for a reason! and I agree, I hope she comes to no harm. If that would have been a male reporter, then who knows?
 
It's interesting that she should think like that. A perspective to place alongside this is that the west does blow up buildings and kill Muslims in their homes, a key difference being that it's usually done using aeroplanes or drones instead of suicide bombers, and for overtly political reasons, rather than subtly political reasons.

But yes, I do hope she comes to no harm for this. I also have a feeling this may need moving to the hot topics section soon.
 
But you see they are right and we are wrong so her argument must be "pointless and blasphemous."

If I were her I would go for a very long vacation somewhere in the west
 
A very brave article, the last section is very true.

"After all these farces, some Arab analyst comes out touting a pathetic message, and reciting the same words in his friend's ear that he has repeated millions of times: 'Those [Muslims who commit terrorism] do not represent Islam, but only themselves.'


"This is all we [know how to do] – absolve [ourselves] of guilt.

I would hope that she can move to Europe, or at least somewhere far away from the centre of the religion she is so very critical of.
 
As said, a brave thing to do & hope no ill becomes of her.
