The Middle East with Daniel Pipes: Chapter 1 of 5

Posted by Matt in June 3rd, 2008

Is Islam a religion of peace? Daniel Pipes, a leading Islamic scholar, says yes and no. If Islam prevails, becoming the world’s pervasive religion, the answer is yes; and since it will require war for Islam to prevail, for the time being the answer is no. But to begin to understand Islam, Pipes says it should be viewed in its several forms: traditional, radical, and modern, the last of which is only in the act of becoming.

	The Middle East with Daniel Pipes Is Islam a religion of peace? What should we do about Iran — or, more specifically, an Iran with nuclear weapons? Why is it in our national interest to support Israel? In answering these and other questions about the thorniest issues confronting the United States in the Middle East, Daniel Pipes provides some surprising answers. Among them, Pipes asserts that Israel is quite capable of standing up to a nuclear Iran on its own. Tags: East, Iran, Islam, Israel, Middle, nuclear, peace

	Part 2/5 - Daniel Pipes about the Middle East - Israel Daniel Pipes talks the odds. The chance that immigrant Muslims and indigenous Europeans find a way to live in harmony? Five percent, says Pipes. The chance that Europe becomes Eurabian, part of the Muslim world? Forty-seven-and-a-half percent. The chance that Europeans reassert control over the continent? Forty-seven-and-a-half percent, once more — and Pipes says it won't be pretty. About Daniel Pipes Daniel Pipes is the director of the Middle East Forum, a Philadelphia-based think tank.

	Part 3/5 - Daniel Pipes about the Middle East - Iran What to do with Iran — or more specifically, an Iran with nuclear weapons? Daniel Pipes takes a tough stance. He says the U.S. must make it clear that if Iran continues down the nuclear path, the consequences will be dire. That said, there is no reason for the U.S. to involve Israel in the matter. The Israelis, in the estimation of Pipes, are quite capable on their own of standing up to a nuclear Iran.

	Sharia Law and Islamic Democracy - Daniel Pipes Complete video at: http://fora.tv/2008/04/15/Is_Islam_Compatible_With_Democracy Middle East Forum Director Daniel Pipes criticizes the role of Sharia Law in many radical Islamic movements, identifying this concept as one of the greatest obstacles to democratic reforms in Muslim societies. ----- In Islam, Allah is the ultimate authority. In democracy, authority ultimately lies with the people. But does this mean that Islam is incompatible with democracy? After all, it was Islamic scholarship that introduced ancient Greek conceptions of democracy to the feudal states of Europe. Despite this, it has been suggested that the differences between Islam (especially when given political form) and the liberal democracies of the West are so great as to represent a 'clash of civilisations'.

	Understanding Israel - Daniel Pipes The Middle East with Daniel Pipes: Chapter 2 of 5 Israel: a noble mistake? There are those in the mainstream media who attempt to spread this notion, emphasizing that the now 60-year-old nation was a flawed concept from the beginning. Daniel Pipes firmly disagrees. He says Israel is a tremendous success in every quantifiable area, from its economy to its freedoms to its scientific advancements to its cultural uniqueness. The trouble Israel has, says Pipes, is that its neighbors dont accept it. "An excellent primer on what remains one of the most important issues of our time."

	Part 4/5 - Daniel Pipes about the Middle East The Bush administration this year requested $2.5 billion in aid for Israel. Pipes calls such a high level of aid "a mistake." It costs Israelis on several levels — for starters, in terms of public opinion of Israel in the United States. That said, a strong U.S.-Israel bond benefits both countries, and contrary to mainstream opinion does not spoil U.S.-Arab relations.
