Month: July 2007

Just how perverted does it get before we pull the plug on the vicious, insane distortion in the MSM? Here is some awful stuff from Libya, whose dictator Gaddafi is now being rewarded for terrorism blackmail and extortion:

From Spiegel Online:

Medic Recalls Eight Years in Libyan Jail

Palestinian-born Bulgarian doctor Ashraf al-Hazouz, 37, recalls his eight-year imprisonment in Libyan jails, describing his torture at the hands of Gadhafi’s thugs and the ordeals of the five nurses imprisoned with him.

Doctors blast Guantanamo treatment as unethical

How demented are these people?

CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) — Military doctors violate medical ethics when they approve the force-feeding of hunger strikers at the U.S. prison camp at Guantanamo Bay, according to a commentary in a prestigious medical journal.

Sarko Rewards Libyan Extortionist With Nuclear Reactor

Is Girac a whore and Sarkosy the prostitute or vice versa?

The French are bankrupt, morally and otherwise. Who would give a terrorist madman like Gaddafi the benefit of the doubt let alone nuclear technology?

Sarkozy: Trust Arab states with nuclear technology

TRIPOLI, Libya (Reuters) — After agreeing to nuclear cooperation with Libya, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said the West should trust Arab states to develop such technology for peaceful purposes or risk a war of civilizations.

France agreed on Wednesday to help Libya develop a nuclear reactor to supply drinking water from desalinated sea water. The reactor might be supplied by French atomic energy firm Areva.

Sarkozy told reporters in Libya that to consider the Arab world “is not sensible enough to use civilian nuclear power” would, in the long run, risk a “war of civilizations.”

“Nuclear power is the energy of the future,” he said. “If we don’t give the energy of the future to the countries of the southern Mediterranean, how will they develop themselves? And if they don’t develop, how will we fight terrorism and fanaticism?”

*How do you fight fanatical lunatics like Gaddafi after you provide them with nuclear weapons?

Many Middle Eastern countries, including some worried about Iran’s nuclear program, are interested in developing atomic energy resources.

* You bet they are.

Claude Gueant, Sarkozy’s chief of staff, noted the nuclear cooperation deal means “a country that respects international rules can obtain civilian nuclear energy.”

* Any evidence that Libya is a country ‘that respects international rules?’ 

Shoe bomber waiting for Allah to spring him

Shoe bomber Richard Reid sits and waits in his cell at the Suprmax prison in Colorado. The British terrorist says he has dreamed he will be spared from the life sentence he serves.
Failed shoe bomber Richard Reid fantasizes that Allah will free him from the Supermax prison cell where he lives in isolation – and in his socks.

“I had a couple of good dreams about my situation changing for the better in the not-so-distant future, so this is a blessing from Allah,” Reid wrote in letters obtained by a British newspaper.

“I place my trust in Allah that he will bring that into fruition and ask him to give me patience until the time when that occurs.”

Richard, put a bomb in your shoe…

Meanwhile, another genocidal lunatic whines about mistreatment:

Why’s Everybody Always Picking on Me?

Half-blind, hook-handed Abu Hamza, the infamous jihad-spewing cleric of the Finsbury Park Mosque in Britain, is apparently having a difficult time in prison: Jailed Hamza moans: Stop picking on me.

HATE preacher Abu Hamza has complained of the tough conditions behind bars, it was revealed yesterday.

An Islamic group has taken up the hook-handed preacher’s cause and is demanding human rights organisations help him.

Hamza’s “plight” at top security Belmarsh Prison in south-east London was revealed in a letter from his wife, Nagat Mostafa, to the al-Maqreze Centre for Historical Studies. In her letter written in May, shortly after her husband had surgery to remove an inch of bone from his infected left arm stump, she asked them to do all they could.

*

Just wondering: When are we going to treat the jihad freaks like they (would) treat us?

* Whatever it was, the Tuscan sun or the Chianti wine (or both) it seems to have affected the judgment of Australia’s ‘right wing’ columnist and blogger Andrew Bolt, who shows great sympathy for the Muslim doctor Haneef, who was trying to flee Australia after some of his close associates and relatives tried to blow up Glasgow airport and a London disco. Haneef, who couldn’t be tried (for lack of evidence) on a sim card he left behind with his co-religionists, took off with some 150 K from Australia’s 60 minute TV show, where he was interviewed by a dumb blonde who asked all the wrong questions. Haneef was sent off after being grilled for nearly 4 weeks and immigration minister Andrews revoked his visa, which the nutroots consider the ‘real’ crime. Haneef sports the Islamic beard and his wife wears the hijab, but political correctness would prevent us from looking at that at all.

* Which brings us back to Bolt’s strange affliction with Islamic terror sympathizers:

“The 60 Minutes interview with Haneef last night makes Haneef seem not just an innocent guy, but a lovely man”

*

Then, in an about face he attacks the nutroots over an interview with Alexander Downer, sort of:

*

Then comes the naked gun:

How to make 1 billion enemies

Has Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews really played safe or just made us more friendless by stripping Dr Mohamed Haneef of his visa?

Just see how India has welcomed Haneef back as a martyr following the collapse of the bungled terrorism case against him:

* A martyr? Perhaps our government prevented him from becoming one. You have a problem with that?

In Bangalore, a rapidly expanding city of more than five million inhabitants, and India’s boom IT town (not dissimilar in its robustness to the city of Brisbane he had been forced to leave behind), Dr Haneef needed the help of police to gain safe passage through a throng of waiting media and well-wishers at the airport. He became in that instant a new type of celebrity – one born of the war on terror.

* Hmm, wonder why that is? Could it be they have something in common?
Like the London suicide-bombers funeral in Pakistan that attracted more than 20.000? What does that tell you?

Heaven knows what Muslims in Australia think about it all

* Okay, lets ask the catmeat sheik Hilali. Or sheik Omran or Feiz Mohammed, they’ll tell you in unison: ‘ Its because of the Jooozzz…’

* Why should we care? Shouldn’t we show them that we are vigilant?

* So by interrogating and finally evicting a terrorist sympathizer we are making ‘a billion enemies?’ A strange view indeed. Islam has declared war on us. Since 1400 years Islam is waging war on the World, the global jihad rages in more than 30 theaters of war from Israel to Thailand and from Sulawesi to India and we are now ‘making enemies of a billion muslims’ because our government ships ONE out?

The Australian has a slightly different take:

Andrews documents Haneef suspicions

CHAT room conversations suggested to authorities that Mohamed Haneef may have had prior knowledge of the UK bombings, Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews said tonight.

Mr Andrews this evening detailed what he said was intelligence information gleaned from chat room conversations that Dr Haneef had with his brother in India to back his decision to cancel the doctor’s working visa.

He released advice from the solicitor-general which found information provided to him from the Australian Federal Police (AFP) was sufficient grounds to revoke Dr Haneef’s visa.

Christopher Hitchens: Why Are We So Scared of Offending Muslims?

* Hmm, why could that be? Because Muslims have a habit of throwing hissy fits, start beheadings and bomb embassies, buses and trains when they don’t fly jets into buildings?

This has to stop, and it has to stop right now. There can be no concession to sharia in the United States. When will we see someone detained, or even cautioned, for advocating the burning of books in the name of God? If the police are honestly interested in this sort of “hate crime,” I can help them identify those who spent much of last year uttering physical threats against the republication in this country of some Danish cartoons. In default of impartial prosecution, we have to insist that Muslims take their chance of being upset, just as we who do not subscribe to their arrogant certainties are revolted every day by the hideous behavior of the parties of God.

It is often said that resistance to jihadism only increases the recruitment to it. For all I know, this commonplace observation could be true. But, if so, it must cut both ways. How about reminding the Islamists that, by their mad policy in Kashmir and elsewhere, they have made deadly enemies of a billion Indian Hindus? Is there no danger that the massacre of Iraqi and Lebanese Christians, or the threatened murder of all Jews, will cause an equal and opposite response?

Update:

Evidence Haneef knew of bomb plot

By staff writers and AAP
05:45pm
MOHAMED Haneef was told “nothing has been found out about you yet” and advised to leave the country on a seemingly false pretence by his brother in an internet conversation on the weekend of the foiled terrorist attacks in Glasgow and London.

The internet chatroom conversation between the Gold Coast doctor and his brother in India showed he had an awareness of the terrorist plot, Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews said today.

Mr Andrews released advice from the federal solicitor-general which said information provided to him by the Australian Federal Police (AFP) was sufficient grounds to revoke Dr Haneef’s visa.

Mr Andrews said the solicitor-general’s advice covered matters such as contact between Dr Haneef and his cousins in the UK, who are accused of involvement in the failed plot to bomb central London and Glasgow airport.

“Importantly, there was a computer room conversation, a chat room conversation, with Dr Haneef’s brother in India on the afternoon before his attempted hasty departure from Australia,” Mr Andrews said.

“In it, the brother of Haneef says `nothing has been found out about you’ and asked when Dr Haneef would be getting out, to which Haneef replied `today’.

“The brother asked whether he had permission to take leave and what he told the hospital.

“Dr Haneef said he told them his baby was born in an emergency caesarean. The brother told him to `tell them that you have to as you have a daughter born, do not tell them anything else’.

“The brother then said not to delay his departure and not to let anyone else use his number in Australia, nor to give it to anyone.”

Mr Andrews said the AFP had told him before he made his visa decision that police suspected the internet conversation may be evidence Dr Haneef had prior knowledge of the UK bomb plot.

“And secondly, the AFP consider Dr Haneef’s attempted urgent departure from Australia on a one-way ticket for a purpose which appears to be a false pretext to be highly suspicious and may reflect Haneef’s awareness of the conspiracy to plan and prepare the acts of terrorism in London and Glasgow.

Mr Andrews said Dr Haneef had not applied for leave from the Gold Coast hospital where he worked until after he had received two phone calls, including one from India, in which he was told there was an issue with his SIM card.

“The whole circumstances surrounding Haneef’s attempted hasty departure from Australia, including chat room conversations, when viewed against his clear prior association with the Ahmed brothers, led me to form a reasonable suspicion as required by the migration legislation,” Mr Andrews said.

He said he would not release the full, protected material because it prejudice or jeopardise further investigations.

* Guilty as sin. Don’t say I told you so.

And then there are the shysters:

Lawyers sap our will to combat terrorism

We lack the toughness of our European neighbours
Michael Burleigh/Times Online

While we agonise about 28 or 56 days custody, it is not uncommon for terrorist suspects in France to be held in preventive detention for four or five years before their case goes to court. The use of intelligence intercept evidence in courts is being debated here, but the Italian security services have long made transcripts of this material available, so revealing the lying cynicism with which, for example, Milan-based Arab jihadis regard European asylum laws. And then there is the internet, one of the key means of radicalising Muslims. Wolfgang Schäuble, the German Interior Minister, wheelchair-bound since a 1990 assassination attempt, has argued recently in favour of hacking into the computers of Islamist radicals.

* Scheuble has also called for the targeted assassination of known terrorists, which caused the nutroots to throw hissy fits…

Bomb suspect loaned Haneef cash

Evidence mounts that Haneef is dirty:

During questioning, Dr Haneef, a devout Muslim, allegedly told police he was travelling to India to see his wife, who experienced a complicated childbirth on June 26, but gave no particular reason for purchasing the one-way ticket.

He denied it was related to the Glasgow or London attacks and has so far refused to discuss his political views with police.

* What does that tell you?

He has admitted to maintaining contact with the Ahmeds via internet chat sites and said he had left his mobile phone and SIM card behind in the UK to “minimise excess baggage” and to allow Sabeel Ahmed to take advantage of the phone company’s “extra minute deal”.

Comment:

In case you were wondering whether a ‘fifth column’ was operating in Australia, I provide this as exhibit A:-

Peter Beattie says he’s unconvinced by information revealed by Kevin Andrews to justify cancelling Mohamed Haneef’s visa.

The Age

Andrews accused of inflaming suspicions against Indian doctor with selective details from ‘secret’ dossier.

*Fifth Column from Wikipedia:-
The term originated with a 1936 radio address by Emilio Mola, a nationalist general during the 1936-39 Spanish Civil War. As four of his army columns moved on Madrid, the general referred to his militant supporters within the capital as his “fifth column,” intent on undermining the Republican government from within.

Sounds like sections of the Australian media to me…….

You couldn’t make this s#*t up, its just too bizarre:

Free Pork for all! 

A group of Muslims have opposed plans for a pet food factory to be built as possible pork emissions will violate their religious rights.

Butchers Pet Care could shelve plans for a factory in Coton Park, near Rugby, because angry Asian families have complained to their residents’ association about pork smells drifting into their garden.

Muslim residents in the area also claim the pork will effectively “rain down” on their homes and gardens after the factory’s 100ft chimney has pumped the meat extracts into the atmosphere.

The Coton Park Residential Association said they have received complaints from Muslims – who are directed to not eat pork by the Qur’an – and are taking the matter very seriously.
*

Muslim families are worried that the pet food factory will infect the air with pork emissions and violate their religious beliefs

One family who live less than 100 yards from the proposed factory, but who did not wish to be identified, said: “A significant proportion of meats used in the pet foods processes are pig meat.

“Our religion expressly forbids us to consume pig meat in any form.

“Because of the way in which this meat material will leave the factory and give that the area can be ‘rained upon’ we will be consuming pork via inhalation of this ‘rain’.

“Not only that but our clothes will be contaminated by pork.”

Another family from the Coton Park housing estate said: “The owners of the proposed factory do not dispute the claim that meat extracts of pork will be pumped into the atmosphere via a 100ft chimney.

“They have said there will not be any chemical treatment proposed to treat the meat extracts before they leave the factory.”

Association spokesperson Grant Scott said: “Several families have complained because of the smell of the pork, and also if the factory is cooking with it, pork particles and odour could rain down on them from the chimney at some point.

“It was something we hadn’t taken on board before but it’s definitely important and is a very delicate issue.

“If Muslims are unhappy about it, then Jews may complain for the same reason, and Hindus may complain because of their beliefs about cows being sacred animals.

“There is a significant Muslim element in our area, so there is a potential problem.”

Another Muslim family added: “A Muslim is obliged to be clean spiritually, mentally and physically.

“Abstention from eating flesh of swine is one of the obligations a Muslim must observe to attain purity of the soul and of the human nature.

“Therefore, we believe that not only will we be contaminated but also our faith by the owners of this proposed pet food plant.

“In this country we are allowed the right to follow our religion and religious beliefs. By allowing this plan to go ahead our religious rights are being swept to one side for what appears to be economic greed.

“We feel sure that there are other areas where this factory could be built that would not impact on us or others like us.”

The Environmental Health Agency are investigating the potential affects, with a decision about the factory’s future due in September.

The pet food company said there is an ‘almost 99% guarantee’ the smell of pork would not reach the Coton Meadows residential area.

A statement from Butchers Pet Care said: “The majority of our natural products are beef and poultry.

“Pork ingredients account for less than 10% of our range.

“At Coton Park we plan to introduce state-of-the-art odour extraction through the chimney stack.

“An environmental impact report has already concluded that emissions at the proposed Coton Park site should not have an adverse impact on air quality and odour levels.

“We would like to reiterate that we do not burn any animal materials.”

There is a way to solve this problem…..

Get your shoes and socks on, people: The soldiers of Allah are ready, are you?

Meanwhile, the sensitive new-age wankers from Al Bebeceera who have long practiced the art of deceiving the public by calling Muslims ‘Asians’ have put up up another puff piece:

Many Asians ‘do not feel British’

Since the effeminate sensitivities of the Al Bebeeceera crew somehow made them take off the niqabbed female in the original story we’ll give you three instead:

More than a third of British Asians do not feel British, a BBC poll suggests.
The research among the under-34s for the Asian Network found 38% of the UK residents of South Asian origin felt only slightly or not at all British.
More than a third agreed to get on in the UK they needed to be a “coconut”, a term for somebody who is “brown on the outside but white on the inside”.

Yet 84% were satisfied with life in Britain and almost half thought they have more opportunities here.

Half of the South Asians and nearly two-thirds of the white people interviewed agreed it was too easy for immigrants to settle in Britain.

We won’t bother to put up any more of this pathetic drivel, but some of the comments are good:

“all of your Britain is belong to us!”

Why can’t some Koreans or Chinese or Thais or somebody complain about this misuse of the term “Asian” for Jihad-supporting Muslims only? I would find it insulting if I were a non-Muslim Asian.

Oil doesn’t mix with water, so water must be racist.

Three-quarters feel their culture is being diluted by living in the UK
So their culture should be undiluted in the UK? See, that’s the trouble with the mentality of so many immigrant groups today. They go to other countries and have a problem with the fact that their culture isn’t the dominate one. Do they ever once stop to think that maybe the culture they are leaving has a bit to do with the reasons that they are leaving?

Thai Buddhist Monks to Spend Buddhist Lent in Violence-wrecked South

By Ambika Ahuja/AP Writer/Bangkok

Hundreds of yellow-robed Buddhist monks arrived in Muslim-dominated southern Thailand o n Wednesday at the start of Buddhist Lent in the hope their presence will promote peace in the insurgency-wracked region.

Buddhist Lent—a three-month period—marks the beginning of the rainy season in Thailand, a time when villagers present offerings of food and flowers to monks who must remain o n temple grounds. The age-old practice is traditionally to prevent them from trampling new plants and insects.

“The 346 monks will spend this time in various temples in the area to boost morale among the Buddhist population there and to bring a message of peace to a place torn apart by the insurgency,” said Air Force Commander Chalit Pukbhasuk who saw the monks off from Bangkok.

The monks traveled by air force plane to the south and will be spending their time at temples in Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat, Thailand’s three southernmost provinces where 2,300 have been killed since an Islamic insurgency flared in January 2004.

Bombings and drive-by shootings are a near-daily occurrence in the region, and while initially Buddhists were the main targets, Muslims are also coming under attack.

Authorities will provide security for the monks with 24-hour patrolling of temple grounds and surrounding areas, said army spokesman Col Akara Thiprote.

Last year, Buddhist monks in Narathiwat halted their alms-seeking rituals after coming under fire, and some Buddhist temples became military barracks and heavily guarded fortresses.

* The question is not whether the monks will be attacked, simply how many will be killed…

Khudayr Taher: Europe and America Should Deport All Muslims – Including Myself

Khudayr Taher, an Iraqi Shi’ite writer living in the U.S. and a regular contributor to the liberal Elaph website, had a quite illiberal suggestion – he asked why Europe and America shouldn’t deport their Muslim populations. He wrote:

“Countries have the right to defend themselves and assure their citizens’ safety from terrorism. Likewise, it is clear that the source of the terrorist crimes in Europe and America is the Muslims who live in these countries.

“The security services cannot know people’s intentions and sort out who is the noble immigrant and who is a terrorist criminal. [But] wherever there are Muslims, their presence has produced crimes of terrorism and murder.

“Among those Muslims in Europe and America who do not practice terrorism, most of them do not have loyalty and sincere attachment to these countries that have offered them all of the means of life in dignity – housing, studies, work, and citizenship…

“The legitimate question is this: Since the security services cannot sort out the good immigrant from the bad terrorist… why don’t these countries deport all Muslims, of all races, from Europe and America, and [thus] find rest from the danger of terrorism, and protect their peoples?

“I, as an Arab Muslim immigrant, sincerely call on the countries of Europe and America to deport all Muslims from their territories – including myself, despite my love and my sincere attachment to the U.S…” [4]

From the Bolt Blog:

The handling of the case of Dr Mohamed Haneef, investigated for suspected links to British terrorists, gets even more farcical:

When the case against Haneef collapsed, Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews nevertheless ruled he wouldn’t reinstate the visa of Haneef, who had to leave Australia:

* Not necessarily a bad thing. Why take a chance?

Sure, Haneef is innocent until proven guilty. Yes, he was not proven guilty and that’s why he was released. Does that mean he is not a terrorist? This guy lived for years with the Glasgow perps and is closely related to them, he shares their belief-system and the Koran taught him to hate infidels and Jews and that terror made Muhammad victorious.

Haneef believes that his prophet Muhammad was the perfect man, uswa hasana, al insan al kamil, for all mankind, for all time, to be emulated by every true believer. Muhammad said ‘strike terror in the hearts of the enemy’ and ‘terror made me victorious’- a believing Muhammedan is by nature a terrorist, the Koran teaches to terrorize infidels and Jews.

Haneef knows more, much more than what he wants us to know. The sympathies from Australia’s left are as predictable as they are undeserved from the right. What surprises is that even the perceived ‘right wing’ journo Andrew Bolt gives Dr Haneef kudo’s:

‘…the 60 Minutes interview with Haneef last night makes Haneef seem not just an innocent guy, but a lovely man.’

Hardly.

Terrorism not in my nature: Haneef

By ninemsn staff and wires

Mohamed Haneef has been interviewed for the first time since his controversial detention, telling the Nine Network’s 60 Minutes that he is innocent of supporting a terrorist organisation.

Asked if he has ever been a member of a terror organisation, Dr Haneef said “no”, expressing surprise at the prospect that anyone would think he would be linked with terrorism.

* Surely he would tell the truth to a few dumb journo’s from a far left TV channel after keeping his mouth shut under interrogation

It is “not in my nature to ever support such activities”, he said.

* Right. Hitler loved dogs, Mohammed Atta had a father and OBL has a mother who thinks a great deal of him.

Bedlam in Bangalore as Dr Haneef is greeted by a massive media pack.

The exclusive interview, made before Dr Haneef caught a flight out of Australia, offered an insight into the Indian doctor’s detention without charge and his explanation for the apparently suspicious events that led to his arrest.

“I never imagined, even in the remotest corner of my brain, that I would be labelled [a terrorist],” he said.

“I had my plans prior [to leaving]. These were all circumstantial things,” he said. “All my friends knew I was going … everything here was left over.”

He denied having any knowledge that his cousins in the UK were involved in terrorism or Islamic extremism, and said he felt most for the parents of the accused men.

Australian authorities victimised me: Haneef

Sure.

* Have we ever seen ONE Muhammedan who was not, -somehow- victimized?

Amrit Dhillon in Bangalore

Dr Mohamed Haneef, who returned home to pandemonium in India today after a terrorism-related charge against him was dropped, says he was “victimized” by the Australian authorities.

And Dr Haneef’s wife and lawyers lashed out at Australian Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews for his “shocking” remark that the former Gold Coast doctor’s rapid departure from Australia heightened suspicions about him.

Making sense: A comment from the Bolt blog 

Re Dr Mohamed Haneef: Before everyone gets too carried away in defending this fellow who clearly does have some sort of connection to Islamic terrorists who have proved time & again their desire to kill the very same type of people defending him who are so critical of our AFP & Govt for doing their job, let them consider these few points.

1) It was the UK authorities who alerted the AFP to Dr Haneef’s sim card in the first place.

2) Haneef was alerted to this by someone & arranged to have a one way ticket to be purchased in India which costs about the same as a return ticket purchased here. Why do this if he intended to return?

3) The rent on his Gold Coast apartment which bore all the signs of a hasty departure was not paid ahead. This too goes against his statement saying he intended to return there after he had visited his wife and child.

4) He attempted to change his appearance before leaving by shaving off his beard which goes against his religious belief.

5) The reasons for the Federal DPP dropping the charges against Haneef is that there isn’t sufficient evidence at the present time to be sure of a conviction in our Courts It doesn’t mean or imply that a person is innocent, it merely says there is insufficient evidence to obtain a conviction on the basis of; “ Beyond Reasonable Doubt”.
Hannef and his cousins etc were refused entry into Western Australia as Doctors under the sect 457 work permits Visa’s & the visual media are now calling Haneef’s Visa a business Visa.If that was the case he would have had to put up $500,000 and actually prove that he was investing in a business here which of course he wasn’t. I doubt we have heard the end of this matter yet, El-Ninyo will keep an open mind as to guilt or not until all the facts are revealed.

PS: Most of the questions asked of Dr Haneef on 60 Mins did not get a direct answer and the questions that should have been asked were not. No wonder this guy is happy, first class air fares back to India and $150K tax free as well. Shame on you Channel Nine. Not too shabby for a couple of weeks in the pokey and given a heroes welcolm home eh?

Pace University Qur’an desecrator facing two felony charges

Spencer from JW:

Outrageous. Beyond outrageous. A book is placed in a toilet, which is a plumbing issue more than anything else and a vandalism issue at best, and a man is charged with two felonies.

LGF has the details, via an email from the defendant.

“Disrespect for the holy Koran is not now, nor has it ever been, nor will it ever be, tolerated by the United States ”

Condoleezza Rice

Who could argue with such wisdom?

This is about Stanislav Shmulevich, who has been arrested in New York for putting a Koran in a toilet at Pace University. And his case is even more outrageous than we first reported.

First, Shmulevich was arrested and jailed for 24 hours. Second, he’s not facing misdemeanor charges—he’s being charged with two felonies, criminal mischief and aggravated harassment.

Felonies. For putting a book in a toilet.

Third, his income is on a borderline that disqualifies him for a public defender, so he stands to suffer incredible financial hardship as well.

Fourth, his name and photograph were published in several newspapers in New York, and he and his mother were ambushed outside the court by reporters. In a case like this, clearly with the potential to enrage radical Muslims, this is so irresponsible of the media that it borders on criminal.

Do we still live in a country that values free speech? This case is pretty good evidence that we do not. Mr. Shmulevich is caught in a Kafkaesque nightmare right out of the Soviet Union, and it’s all happening at the demand of the Muslim Student Association and the Council on American Islamic Relations.

Stay tuned. This is not over.
