Orianna Fallaci's death

Two bits of news:
Orianna Fallaci died. I honor her memory!
“How do you swim in a chador?” she asked Ayatollah Khomeini in 1979, not long after he came to power in Iran. His reply, she wrote in The New York Times, was that she was not obliged to wear one, because it was a garment for proper Islamic women. She tore off her chador, and Ayatollah Khomeini stalked off.

The pope's comments which merit some attention. Finally something I can agree with. It it true. Look at the history of the spread of Islam and tell me if it isn't anything BUT violent.
