I like Eboo a lot. I think he’s actually behind the curve on this one though; the Muslim-American community is well on the path he describes. Doesn’t mean that he doesn’t say it well.

Be forewarned, there’s a new institute of Muslim learning opening in London. It’s founded by a Muslim. It will teach about Islam. Hide your daughters (or reveal them, depending on what you think the primary threat is). Man the gates! Keep the barbarians out! My big question is who is going to hate this institute more, political conservatives, or conservative Muslims.
