It is absurd PoV to have half of an entry about this book devoted to the criticisms of a small and extreme Islamist group. The IHRC's criticisms amount to holocaust denial, and attempt to identify a clerical-fascist regime with all the world's Muslims. In both respects it is offensive as well as inappropriate.

I don't even think that the book itself really merits an article. If you look at previous versions, they were pretty promotional. I believe I have neutralized it, and part of this was adding criticism a from significant organization. I've tried to be fair by including the official lines on the book and the description given by its detractors. While you may understandably dislike the IHRC, your personal opinion does not have any bearing on the pertinence of their criticism to this article. I believe that what is written is enough for a rather insignificant book, and I think that adding more in one direction or the other would amount to promotion or smearing, respectively. Thanks, and feel free to ask more questions if something still bothers you. The Behnam 00:13, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
