The Telegraph: Mario Vargas Llosa was that rare thing, a freedom-loving literary genius of the right
Mario Vargas Llosa was that rare thing, a freedom-loving literary genius of the right
Mario Vargas Llosa, a prominent Peruvian novelist and political figure, initially opposed the nationalization of Peru's banks in 1987. His experiences with socialism, particularly in Cuba, shaped his views against dictatorship and bullying in politics. Despite losing the 1990 presidential election, he remained a significant voice for individual dignity and liberal values.

Vargas Llosa's literary works, including "The Time of the Hero" and "The Feast of the Goat," reflect his commitment to humane principles and critique of authoritarianism. His legacy serves as a reminder of the importance of liberal democracy in a time of political retreat.

A proposed development by the East Plano Islamic Center in Texas, featuring a mosque and school, has faced backlash from Governor Greg Abbott and local officials who express concerns about "Shariah law." The project's leaders assert these fears are unfounded and emphasize inclusivity.

Abbott has stated that Shariah law is not permitted in Texas, prompting investigations into the project. The EPIC community insists they will operate within U.S. laws and have clarified misunderstandings regarding Shariah. A cease-and-desist letter was sent to the mosque over licensing issues related to a funeral home.
