Aafia Siddiqui case goes to the jury
I will be interviewing Dr. Aafia Siddiqui’s lawyer Tina Foster this Saturday, February 6th, on Truth Jihad Radio. The details, and my take on the case, are here. Meanwhile, this just in from the Peace and Justice Foundation… -K.B. THE PEACE AND JUSTICE FOUNDATION11006 Veirs Mill Rd, STE L-15, PMB 298Silver Spring, MD. 20902 SAFAR 1431 A.H.(February 2, 2010) Assalaamu Alaikum (Greetings of Peace): Please feel free to forward. “Something very bad happened to Aafia Siddiqui.”– defense counsel Linda Moreno, in Monday’s closing arguments The whole thrust of the government’s closing argument against Dr. Aafia Siddiqui, yesterday, was simple:…
FULL ARTICLEAre American citizens fair game for extrajudicial assassination?
The Los Angeles Times says the CIA wants to kill a US citizen, Islamic scholar Anwar al-Awlaki, with a predator drone. They don’t want to, or can’t, produce any evidence that he has committed a crime. They just want to kill him. We all know that if al-Awlaki were an accused Jewish terrorist or animal-rights terrorist or anti-abortion terrorist, he would not be targeted for extrajudicial assassination. It is his Muslim identity that makes him fair game. The First Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees government neutrality in matters of religion. The Fourth Amendment guarantees that no person shall…
FULL ARTICLETired of Hate Week yet?
In George Orwell’s novel 1984, the people of Oceana spent one week each year being whipped into a purple froth of fury against a government-designated enemy. Our neocon rulers could teach Orwell’s Party a few lessons. In today’s USA, Hate Week has gone on for almost a decade. The enemy, of course, is Islam in general, and Muslims who dare to defend themselves and their religion in particular. Many of the brainwashed haters seem to take a devilish delight in slandering the Prophet Muhammad, peace upon him. The spiritual father of these people, I pointed out a while back, is…
FULL ARTICLEAsk a former Islamic terrorist
During my recent debate with evangelical Islamophobe Walid Shoebat (listen here) I noticed that he responds to all questions with pretty much the same set of stock answers. When asked about the Illuminati, the differences between the different monotheistic scriptures, or the definition of terrorism in general, Shoebat’s answer was always the same: “Blah blah blah Islamic terrorism.” Since Shoebat and his handlers are making so much money off this schtick, they might as well start an advice column. (Apologies to the Onion.) Ask a Former Islamic TerroristA new advice column I’m ghostwriting for Walid Shoebat Dear Former Islamic Terrorist,I…
FULL ARTICLEShowdown with Shoebat!
I debated Walid Shoebat, self-styled “ex-Muslim-terrorist” turned Evangelical Islamophobe, on the Power Hour with Joyce Riley today. Listen here. Walid’s schtick is beyond belief in more ways than one. Imagine what would happen if a Christian convert from Judaism went on a PR blitz with millions of dollars backing him, spreading imaginary stories about having slurped up Christian babies’ blood back when he was Jewish. Would he get away with it? If not, why is Shoebat getting away with spreading blood libels against Muslims? Jonathan Swift, where are you when we need you? Walid Shoebat’s Evil Twin: We Jews Want…

FULL ARTICLESteve Alten: My 9/11/2009 New York presentation “Hitler’s type of propaganda”
Bestselling author works his jaws, not his brain, in a fierce, primitive attack on yours truly My essay “The Myth of 9/11”, published in a book I co-edited with theologian John Cobb and Jewish Studies professor Sandra Lubarsky, compared 9/11 to Hitler’s Reichstag Fire. When an AP reporter called to ask if I was comparing Bush to Hitler, I said “No, that would be an insult to Hitler, who had 20 or 30 IQ points on Bush.” The reporter audibly gasped, then asked me to repeat the line, which I did. The next day my bon mot was a national…
FULL ARTICLEDavid Ray Griffin, Rowland Morgan rebut 9/11 cell phone misinfo
Some folks in the 9/11 truth movement (example) have been very slow to realize that there is no evidence than any actual hijackings took place on 9/11, and abundant evidence that no such hijackings occurred. (I’m talking about hijackings by human beings not acting as part of a drill–there may well have been remote-control “hijackings” or bogus hijackings by people acting in a drill.) Likewise there is no evidence against any of the 19 patsies, and abundant evidence of their innocence. David Ray Griffin’s new article Phone Calls from the 9/11 Airliners: Response to Questions Evoked by My Fifth Estate…
