Sultan is a Syrian-American psychiatrist (from an Alawi family). She resides in Los Angeles, California. She emigrated to the US in 1989, and is now a naturalized citizen. Although, I think she generalizes, maybe she's got a point there. Watch this 5 minutes video.
I really wish more Syrians thought in the way that she does.... I remember watching her speak at the Secular Islam Summit on the Glenn Beck Show. She makes some really good points.

She made some very valid points, but it still sounded at the end like she was naming religions rather than civilizations.
A very nice argument there.
