This ticks me off for all kinds of reasons. And the father thinks the kid has some kind of due-process right to BE IN OUR COUNTRY AND THREATEN PEOPLE? Bridges of understanding indeed. And our taxes paid to bring the little punk here in the first place.

The teen's father is a lawyer. He told the Daily News he was looking into hiring an American lawyer to defend his son...

And I bet a bunch of Jewish lawyers will be fighting to take the case too. We are our own worst enemies. Somehow, liberal Jews believe if they're nice to Muslims they won't cut their heads off. Of course they will.

The little punk was unfortunate enough to be in one of the most conservative areas of the country.

A 15-year-old student was dismissed from his foreign exchange program after reportedly writing “Death to Americans” in Arabic on a classroom board during a discussion in November with classmates.

. . .

The student’s father, Khaled Kasab Mahameed, said the words were not written as a threat or with any malicious intent.

Of course not.

How could anybody possibly interpret that as a threat or having malicious intent.

That's exactly the kind of thing that anybody who advocates a message of peace would write or say, isn't it?

Ignorant savages...

Quite honestly, I work in this industry and the YES program is one of great succes and huge importance. Clearly, a 15 year old can do something immensely stupid...a 15 year old from anywhere in the world. But, much good comes from this Department of State sponsored program. I have worked with kids from Israel, Lebanon, Northern Afica,Iraq, Jordan...who have come here hearing nothing but propaganda their whole lives and seen their eyes open to so much...

So, this kid did something ridiculously stupid...and, if he truly meant what he wrote, something bad...but it is a program with great merit and presents the opportunity to truly change hearts and minds. All hearts and minds, maybe not...but it is making a difference.

An obvious case of profiling. Just because little Mohammad wrote "Death to Americans" doesn't mean he was calling for the death of Americans. He was just informing the other students that Joos are calling for the death of Americans, in between bouts of eating kittens.

CAIR will get right on this injustice.

الموت لأميركا ، بل يعني أنه في طريقة لطيفة.

Death to Americans, but I mean that in a nice way?

Really? An American lawyer duly admitted to the Bar? Somehow I doubt that.

No, not at all. It was just routine stuff. Like they routinely blow up innocent people without malice. It is actually an act of love - love for 72 virgins and 28 boys promised in Islamic books.
