	Oriana Fallaci \| Special reports \| Guardian Unlimited
		Oriana Fallaci, who has died of cancer aged 77, was a controversial Italian journalist and former war correspondent who, at her death, was facing charges of vilifying Islam under Italian law following the publication of her book, The Strength of Reason, one of three polemical works published since the September 11 attacks.
		Fallaci became a journalist at the age of 16 to help pay her way through medical school, but ill health forced her to give up her studies, and the day job developed into a dazzling career.
		Fallaci's diatribes prompted law suits in France and Switzerland, and last year a judge in the northern Italian city of Bergamo committed her for trial on charges of offending Islam.

	Oriana Fallaci - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fallaci received support from rightist political parties and movements such as the Lega Nord in Italy, where her books have sold over 1 million copies alone, but also from individuals and organisations in the rest of the world.
		On June 3, 2005, Fallaci published on the front page of the Italian daily newspaper a highly controversial article entitled "Noi Cannibali e i figli di Medea" ("We cannibals and Medea's offspring") inviting women not to vote for a public referendum about artificial insemination that was held on June 12 and 13, 2006.

	Rod Dreher on Oriana Fallaci & The Rage and the Pride on National Review Online
		Oriana Fallaci, the 72-year-old Italian semi-exile who was once the most famous journalist in the world, was one New Yorker who did not wrestle with her fury; rather, she let it erupt in a book-length screed published in Italy's leading newspaper 18 days after the attacks, under the title The Rage and the Pride.
		Fallaci and her blistering work were almost universally condemned as bigoted, hysterical propaganda, not only by Muslim leaders (which is understandable), but by politicians, churchmen, media figures, academics, and virtually the entire continental bien-pensant class.
		Fallaci, a lifelong Leftist, lacerates Europeans for cheap anti-Americanism, and holds up the confident and decent patriotism of American citizens as something that shames the faux-sophisticates of the continent, whose ancestors used to know what love of country was.

	Never Yet Melted » Oriana Fallaci
		Journalist and author Oriana Fallaci died yesterday at age 77 of cancer in Florence.
		Racked by cancer, Oriana Fallaci spends most of her time in one of the few jurisdictions in the western world where she is not in legal jeopardy - New York City, whence she pens magnificent screeds in the hope of rousing Europe to save itself.
		The trial of Oriana Fallaci for the crime of defaming Islam by statements made in her 2004 book The Force of Reason began today in Bergamo, and was adjourned until June 26.

		Fallaci then tells her public how, as if in a state of trance, she completed the text in two weeks during which time she did not eat or sleep and kept awake by drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes.
		Fallaci metaphorically stands on the mountaintop, shakes her finger at readers, and announces with great solemnity that the worst is yet to come.
		Fallaci was a subduer of Goliaths as she interviewed heads of state in Interview with History (1974).

		Fallaci only aggravates her lack of rigorous thinking by translating the work herself, resulting in a clumsy text that appears not to have been edited or proofread by a fluent English speaker.
		But Fallaci's love for America, her adopted home, and her critique of European intellectuals' perverse contempt for it, is laced with a bile that may lead readers to suspect her of anti-Arab bias-a possibility she is all to aware of, repeatedly defending herself against the charge of racism.
		With her well-known courage Oriana Fallaci faces the themes unchained by the Islamic terrorism: the contrast and, in her opinion, incompatibility between the Islamic world and the Western world; the global reality of the Jihad and the lack of response, the lenience of the West.

		But Smith has gone beyond CAIR in claiming that Fallaci is “distorting real historical facts and inventing others,” and “lying.” One good result of her trial would be the establishment in court that Fallaci was telling the truth all along.
		Fallaci: Muslims think that “biology is a shameless science because it is occupied with the human body and sex.” Here again Smith seems to have difficulty with the challenges that will come from living in a free society.
		Fallaci: Italians, resigned to their Islamization and thoroughly secularized, “are not offended when Islamic immigrants urinate on their monuments or soil the sacristies of their churches or toss their crucifixes out the window of a hospital.” They won’t be able to toss them out of schools — Adel Smith has made sure of that.

	Oriana Fallaci: journalist, interviewer and author
		Fallaci denies her reputation as a brutal interrogator, insisting instead that she merely frames the questions other reporters lack the courage to ask.
		Fallaci's writing, both as a journalist and a novelist, indicate that the social and political state of Italy both before her birth and during her youth had a significant impact on her life.
		Fallaci's focus on power and the use and abuse of power is evident in her interviews with political officials throughout the world.

	Battle cry from a biased heart - smh.com.au
		The book, a passionate cry in which she accuses the West of being blind to the true threat of Islam, caused a scandal when it was published in Europe last year, but has raised barely a murmur in the US.
		Fallaci sued the author for slander and instigation to murder.
		The secret of her journalistic success, Fallaci says, is that she has never tried to be objective.

	From Orhan Pamuk to Oriana Fallaci \| The Brussels Journal
		Fallaci’s book, The Rage and the Pride, heavily criticizes many aspects of Islam and is vulgar, to say the least, in the manner in which it achieves its degrading criticism.
		For Fallaci, those who did not see the subsequent war in Iraq approaching are those who allowed Muslims, “the sons of Allah get away with a little too much.” The essay quite clearly labels Muslims, “birdbrains”, “scoundrels”, “terrorists”, inherently lazy people, welfarists and “idiots”.
		The author often confesses her ignorance at the understanding of the Islamic faith, in addition to claiming the West to have the hold on rationalism, and Islam (and its associated states) to have the claim on arbitrary womanizing and countless murdering and wars.

		Oriana Fallaci passed away from breast cancer at a private clinic in Florence, Italy, having returned to the Tuscan capital earlier this month from New York to spend her last days.
		Fallaci’s recent publications including the best-selling book “The Rage and The Pride,” which came out weeks after the Sept. 11 attacks drew accusations of racism and inciting hatred against Muslims.
		So Fallaci was totally correct in her interpretation of the Catholic church’s actions in response to terrorist acts and propaganda.

		At the time of her death Oriana Fallaci was facing a suit in Italy for daring to suggest that her country and culture were under threat from radical Islam.
		It is worth noting that while Oriana was from the other side of the political fence from you and most of your blog flock, she deserves to be honored for her own lifelong courageousness and not merely for having the cojones to speak about against Islamic fascism.

	Reason: Extremism and Bigotry: Oriana Fallaci could benefit from less rage and more reason (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Fallaci, who rose to fame with her fearless reportage from danger zones and her gutsy interviews of famous and infamous public figures, has more recently drawn attention—and, in the eyes of many people, become infamous herself—with two polemics against the Islamic threat, The Rage and the Pride and The Force of Reason.
		Fallaci, who is currently facing legal charges of defaming Islam in Italy, has many defenders who describe her as a passionate anti-Jihadist unfairly accused of racism.
		She is well aware, for instance, that Fallaci's concern about the deep-seated problems in much of Islamic culture today, including in some immigrant Muslim communities in Europe (the treatment of women, the resistance to modernization, the religious intolerance, and anti-Semitism), is amply justified.

		Oriana goes on and on explaining why war is the only means we have to defend our civilization.

		Fallaci describes herself, too, as "a revolutionary"--"because I do what conservatives in Europe don't do, which is that I don't accept to be treated like a delinquent." She professes to "cry, sometimes, because I'm not 20 years younger, and I'm not healthy.

		Those who, like Fallaci, speak the truth about the motives and goals of the jihadists are vilified and marginalized, while the purveyors of comforting half-truths, distortions and lies fill the nation’s airwaves and newsprint.
		In her speech Fallaci explained that it was to a great degree because “truth inspires fear.” When one hears the truth, one can only be silent or join the cause.
		Fallaci, who identified herself as an atheist (a “Catholic atheist”), was the first individual granted a private audience with the new Pope.
