Ex-Muslim TV this week held a conference to consolidate the worldwide movement of ex-Muslims that has grown and thrived in recent years. At the conference, a Jordanian ex-Muslim warns that a "tsunami" of Islam is headed to the Western world and specifically England, and pleads that people support the counterforce that ex-Muslims struggle to establish: "Let me tell you something: Islam is very powerful; it's super-powerful.

That I have to live every day as a target, and be okay with it, and live with it - and if I say a word, if I say that Islam is bad, I'm an Islamophobe, and I should shut up. This is it? And yet we hear debating about whether it's okay to curse Islam or not. Is it okay to draw a cartoon or not. Or should we be more tolerant.
"Yeah, we can be more tolerant, but would the other side be more tolerant? Would the other side give us what they are claiming?
"If Islam is the most powerful force in England, will it give you the rights that you're giving them? And I'm not asking you to take away the rights of religion. But I'm asking you to face the tsunami that's coming to you, and to encourage that tsunami that we are doing, by facing them off and saying, no! 'No, I can leave'.

This video has been said to be an effective catalyst to pierce Muslim cognitive dissonance and has lead some to break free of the ideological chains that had bound them:
