In my think the debate was not fear because they have 7 person against Islam or non Muslims and 4 person are Muslim if they want debate on Islam they should have some one knowledgeable person from Islam and other Think when the imam want to explain they did not give time to him and the its not live they may cut some parts of debate any way even that people Will know more about real Islam
because false and lie is not equal as truth May ALLAH help us (Ameen)
