What are your opinions on this case?
I read it and don't think she said anything that was out of line. It is apparent there's a systematic effort underway to silence any real scrutiny or questioning of the phenomena of an Islamic political system (including indoctrination and festering of terror cells) cleverly hiding behind its religion cover for protection as it increases it's geographic spread.
I did also note that she is claiming she didn't reference the word "terrorism" in her discussion, but I have to ask, what's wrong with that? If Islamic enabled terrorists walk like a Islamic terrorist duck...quack like an Islamic terrorist duck...explodes and kills people while shouting Allahu Akbar, etc then what are they? Dedicated yet angry Fuller Brush Salesmen committing random workplace violence?
It is what it is... people shouldn't be afraid or restricted to say so
Quebec author faces slander trial for ‘greatly tarnishing’ Muslim school
During a 2012 radio interview, Djemila Benhabib likened a private, Muslim school in Montréal to militant Islamic training camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
MONTREAL—A slander trial is set to begin next month pitting a fiercely secular, feminist author against a private, Muslim school in Montreal she likened to militant Islamic training camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Djemila Benhabib, an award-winning author and twice-failed Parti Québécois candidate, is claiming freedom of expression, while the school wants $95,000 from her for “greatly tarnishing” its reputation.
----excerpt 2
“(The school) resembles the kind of indoctrination similar to what goes on in a military camp in Afghanistan or Pakistan,” she told the radio host. Moreover, she added the school “models itself on a society different than ours. It’s a model where women have to lower their heads and walk behind men. Where kids are forced to learn Qur’anic verses and where, probably, men will commit honour crimes against their sisters.”

Benhabib was born in Ukraine to a Muslim-Algerian father and a Greek-Cypriot mother. She said she “suffered through an Islamic educational system” and has vowed to fight against what she calls “political Islam.”
