The full transcript of the conversation: quote:
FATIMA AL-DHAHER: On September 14, 2001, you said that America should invade Muslim countries and convert them to Christianity. You also said that all the Muslims should boycott all the airlines. When asked what alternative modes of transportation were, you suggested flying carpet. (CROWD LAUGHS AND CHEERS) ANN COULTER: Hang on, she's reading my lines. Go on. AL-DHAHER: Question, first of all, as a seventeen-year-old student of this university, Muslim, should I be converted to Christianity? Second of all, since I don't have a magic carpet, what other modes do you suggest? COULTER: First, you dropped a line from the first quote. It was "invade all countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity." And, you know, by the way, this shows, I thought it was just, you know, American public schools that produced ignorant people. This is what America has done, after World War II, after the Korean War. After we won in World War II, the emperor went to MacArthur and said, "Okay, we're ready to convert." And MacArthur said, "Well, actually, we don't convert people forcibly." Also, as he's described, he said he didn't know whether to convert them to Protestantism or Catholicism. But he put out the call for Christian missionaries to come to Japan, and they poured in. And, you don't convert people forcibly, but missionaries have been operating throughout Japan for years, and we certainly have religious freedom in Japan, and I would add we haven't heard a peep out of them. (CHEERS AND BOOS FROM CROWD) After the Korean War, the exact same thing happened. A call was put out for Christian missionaries to go into South Korea. The Christian missionaries poured in, and this is one of the greatest success stories of Christianity. You'll see in at least on a American university campuses... CROWD: Answer the question. Answer the question. COULTER: What mode of transportation? Take a camel. HECKLER: Are you going to convert her now? COULTER: No, there are some people I'd just as soon not convert. I'm kind of a mean Christian. Read more: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2010/03/28/media-badly-misrepresent-ann-coulters-take-camel-line#ixzz0jaE9TN6X
