Oriana Fallaci died this past week. If you don't know who she is, this tribute by the Anchoress will help fill in the gaps. At the end of her tribute she provides links to additional articles and mini-biographies. Fallaci, one of the great journalists of the 20th century, and author of The Force of Reason (2006) and before that, The Rage and the Pride (2002), warned of the menace of Islam to Europe, and for that she suffered the ostracism and condemnation fated to all who step afoul of political correctness. As the Anchoress says in her annotated links, Michelle Malkin quotes Fallaci extensively. It would be a good idea, therefore, to include her article in one's reading.
UPDATE: 9/18/06 - Add this Daniel Pipes' tribute to the above references. This may be the most important of all. Pipes includes a link to a report of an address she gave about a year ago titled "The European Apocalypse: Islam and the West."
