    The only reason I might seem obsessed is that I read Robert Spencer a lot, and he concentrates a lot on Islam. He is the best Islam critic I know.

    Besides, I don't consider Islam to be part of the Abrahamic traditions anyways.
    I regard Islam as an impostor faith that asserts truth claims over other religions and the world.

    I highly recommend the work of Robert Spencer. He has written several books about Islam and Jihad, from various angles. I would recommend the following books of his:

    - Religion of Peace, why Christianity is and Islam isn't
    - The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades
    - The Truth about Muhammad (a biography of Muhammad) - New York Times Best-seller
    - Did Muhammad Exist, an inquiry into Islam's obscure origins - New York Times Best-seller
