The prolific author, former FBI trainer in Jihad and top Islamicist who operates the Jihad Watch website, Robert Spencer gives a 40 minute presentation in Montreal on the gradual loss of free speech in the years since the Salman Rushdie affair.

Surprisingly though he ends on an extremely positive note: he is sure that the West will recover its confidence and turn the tide.
