News & World Report and the Washington Times during which time he was an editor for the Belgrade magazine Duga . In 1994–95 he acted as an unofficial spokesman for the Bosnian Serb government ( while preferring to describe himself as a Balkan affairs analyst with close links to the Bosnian Serbs ) .

In 2013 he testified on behalf of Radovan Karadžić . Trifković denied being a former spokesman for Karadžić at a time he was a journalist and analyst reporting on Karadžićs activities . He is also professor in Faculty of Political Science of University of Banja Luka in Bosnia and Herzegovina . Writings on Islam . Trifković is the author of Sword of the Prophet : The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam , a book about the history and tenets of Islam which identifies the rise of Islamic fundamentalism as the greatest danger to Western values since the end of the Cold War . According to James Bissett , former Canadian ambassador to Yugoslavia and a close associate of Trifković , Trifković sees the source of this threat in the absence of separation of church and state under Islam - because Islam is a way of life , Muslims are required to subordinate themselves to the teachings of Allah and live as members of the total Islamic community , calling into question their ability to give their political loyalty to a non-Muslim state . Trifković considers this to be a particularly important issue for the countries of Western Europe , with a population of over 50 million Muslims , and the United States ( approx . 3.3 million ) . Refusal of admission to Canada . In February 2011 , Canadian authorities refused to allow Trifković entry into Canada to address a meeting at the University of British Columbia at Vancouver . Trifković reported in the journal Chronicles that he was refused entry to Canada on 24 February 2011 on the transparently spurious grounds that he was inadmissible on grounds of violating human or international rights for being a proscribed senior official in the service of a government that , in the opinion of the minister , engages or has engaged in terrorism , systematic or gross human rights violations , or genocide , a war crime or a crime against humanity within the meaning of subsections 6 ( 3 ) to ( 5 ) of the Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act . He claimed his inadmissibility was due to contacts with the Bosnian Serb leaders in the early 1990s but claimed that the Canadian authorities grounds for refusing him admission were transparently spurious and they had in fact yielded to a Bosniak-inspired campaign against him . The Canadian Institute for the Research of Genocide alleged that Trifković was promoting hatred , antisemitism and Islamophobia and accused him of publicly denying what New American termed the alleged massacre of Bosniaks at Srebrenica in July 1995 , found by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia to be a crime of genocide .
