Who is Wafa Sultan?

She is a Muslim women who has immigrated to to the United States, become a psychiatrist, and is fiercely speaking out about the Muslim culture as it regards to women and religion. In an article in the International Herald Tribune, entitled A voice agains Muslim 'hostages' to terror, Sultan's views are quoted thus: "The world's Muslims, who she compares unfavorably to the Jews, have descended into a vortex of self-pity and violence."

A direct quote attributed to Wafa Sultan in the same article states: "I believe our people are hostages to our own beliefs and teachings..."

We create our reality through our alignment with particular beliefs. It seems that only when they become absolute truths to us and we attempt to convince others that war and conflict results. Is Wafa Sultan helping free Muslims or is he hurting them? Is she helping Muslim women? Is it necessary to oppose something in order to change it? Or can we simply accept these beliefs and learn to use different aspects of the same beliefs that are more positive? What does you, the reader, think?
