The Great Scholar Speaks

Bernard Lewis, in a brilliant interview in the Jerusalem Post.  It’s as good s it gets.  He calls our attention to two big things:  the women are the key to the future of the Middle East;  and in the Islamic world it’s not so much freedom/oppression that organizes thought and action, as justice/injustice.

He’s 96 years old;  he’s been thinking hard for a long time.  We should pay attention.
