To learn how Islamic Scholars lie and cheat we need to see Edward Said. Read his book Orientalism and then read the Quran and Robert Spencer books. The professors from Middle East to Pakistani all lie and spread problems. Many Indians dont know that SIMI (the terrorist students organization was created by a Muslim Professor from Indian Subcontinent.
One professor from Pakistan told me that Indian regretted the loss of Pakistan and I told him that we did not and were very happy that Muslims left India .So beware of the so called Islamic Scholars and think what you learn from them.
So here is the FRAUD Strategy and How to lie from a Respected Professor in USA. See how he lies

Edward Wadie Saïd (Arabic: إدوارد وديع سعيد‎, Idwārd Wadīʿ Saʿīd; 1 November 1935 25 September 2003) was Palestinian American literary theorist, cultural critic, and an advocate for Palestinian rights. He was a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University and a leading theorist of postcolonialism.[1] Robert Fisk described him as the Palestinians' "most powerful political voice."[2]
[edit] Criticism
Orientalism and other works by Said have sparked a wide variety of controversy and criticism.[20] Ernest Gellner argued that Said's contention that the West had dominated the East for more than 2,000 years was unsupportable, noting that until the late 17th century the Ottoman Empire had posed a serious threat to Europe.[21] Mark Proudman notes that Said had claimed that the British Empire extended from Egypt to India in the 1880s, when in fact the Ottoman and Persian Empires intervened.[22] Others argued out that even at the height of the imperial era, European power in the East was never absolute, and remained heavily dependent on local collaborators, who were frequently subversive of imperial aims.[23] Another criticism is that the areas of the Middle East on which Said had concentrated, including Palestine and Egypt, were poor examples for his theory, as they came under direct European control only for a relatively short period in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These critics suggested that Said devoted much less attention to more apt examples, including the British Raj in India, and Russias dominions in Asia, because Said was more interested in making political points about the Middle East.[24]
Orientalism is the 1978 book by Edward Said that has been highly influential in postcolonial studies.
In the book, Said says that orientalism, especially the academic study of, and discourse, political and literary, about the Arabs, Islam, and the Middle East that primarily originated in England, France, and then the United States actually creates a divide between the East and the West.

Samuel Phillips Huntington (April 18, 1927December 24, 2008) was an American political scientist who gained prominence through his Clash of Civilizations (1993, 1996) thesis of a post-Cold War new world order.
The Clash of Civilizations is a theory, proposed by political scientist Samuel P. Huntington, that people's cultural and religious identities will be the primary source of conflict in the post-Cold War world.
The theory was originally formulated in a 1992 lecture[1] at the American Enterprise Institute, which was then developed in a 1993 Foreign Affairs article titled "The Clash of Civilizations?",[2] in response to Francis Fukuyama's 1992 book, The End of History and the Last Man. Huntington later expanded his thesis in a 1996 book The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order.
The term itself was first used by Bernard Lewis in an article in the September 1990 issue of The Atlantic Monthly titled The Roots of Muslim Rage.[3]
Former Iranian president Mohammad Khatami introduced the idea of Dialogue Among Civilizations as a response to the theory of Clash of Civilizations. The term "Dialogue among Civilizations" became more known after the United Nations adopted a resolution to name the year 2001 as the year of Dialogue among Civilizations.[4]

  • Edward Saeed isn't a Muslims, he is Christian. Both Edward Saeed and Norman Finkelstein, who's a Jewish, talk fairly and that's what differentiate them from others specially Bernard Lewis who him self is a big cheater.

    And all those terrorists they don't resemble Islam.

    Islam is a faith of Peace and Equality. I my self have Muslim friends who show nothing but being nice and respectful.

  • 100% true..left ass hols in media

  • Edward Said was neither an Islamic scholar nor a Muslim. He was a professor of English and Comparative Literature and a Palestinian- American Christian. So the point you are trying to make with this video doesnt make any sense. Nice video though 5 stars!

  • well check his video.Huntington has said that islam is a problem and you see it every where.

    The clash is happening.India is seeing it every day.I still rembemebr the Radio Bombs in the buses of delhi and trains.

    So Edward Said basically tries to debunk the islamic Jihad etc.

    bristish gave india its universites after 800 years.

    Indian universitues were destroyed by islam.Check Nalanda university.

    So be careful of islamic and middle eastern scholars

see all

  • @16thHop More liberal pablum. The ever elusive "moderate" Islam that the "extremists" hijack. What planet do you live on. There is NO MODERATE ISLAM.

    The Koran is exact and relentless. Left to itself Islam ends up in a completely totalitarian society every time. Turkey is reverting to Islamic state..with only the

    pure power of the military to moderate it. Theocracy, militrary rule, dictatorship, family ruling clan...thats Islam..and still you play games.

  • @871yt The model for most Arabs (including the M. Brotherhood) is the secular Turkish one, NOT the violent Iranian form. They have said this clearly many times and we can see it in the growing disdain for Iran resulting from their hideous actions in Syria. Salafis are a different story, but they aren't even close to controlling the reigns of power in the region.

  • @s1187a  In the world of English Literature. Edward Said was a self contradictory clown.

  • @16thHop Ah yes the Arab Spring.....you are so delusional..so typically muslim that

    you didnt even notice that all you got was one more cycle of Islam. Who controls Egypt? Muslim Brotherhood and the Military..nothing EVER changes in

    Islam..ever.

  • @cko299  I would say that the "gullible" were those cheering the Arab Spring..remember?

    Just a year ago..the new beginning of the Arab World..freedom...hope..change.

    Edward Said would have been purveying that delusion with all his might...and when

    we got the Muslim Brotherhood and the crushing of dissent..Said would havent even noticed

  • @871yt as if you've lived there.

    Being Islamic country does not entail hell Malaysia and UAE set a beautiful example of Islamic countries. apparently you're a racist who hate blacks and jews, am I right??

  • @871yt And you're DEFINETLY not spouting right wing propaganda to the gullible.

  • @zizovid What Edward Said was..is the way Edward Said lived his life.

    Inside Academia..utterly. Repeating the formulas of Culural Marxism..to the tee.

    Spouting Leftist propaganda to gullible 19 year olds. He never lived in the hell of an

    Islamic country,..he lived a lie...and he seduced the stupid and the young into his madness

  • Said's points seem to have triumphed over Lewis' et al. views that Muslims hate democracy and freedom. Look at the Arab Spring in which young people were willing to die and brave torture to fight for secular values in Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, etc. Whether these victories might be stolen from the youth is yet to be seen, but the seed of liberalism is there and what it needs is time to germinate, not American strongmen or bombs.
