It might be a “one prosecution at a time” situation.
Get these guys, then after a guilty verdict, use that to go after CAIR.
Not only will they skate, but, somehow, the taxpayers will pay their legal fees.
I pinged Michael on Post #8.

House Republicans Don't Want Muslim Group Using Capitol Conference Room [CAIR.........]
Doesn’t “Conservative” Grover Nordquist shill for CAIR? I know he arranges for questionable Muslim grouops to meet with Bush in the White House, and he has an Arab wife.
Have fun!
CAIR and Michael Graham, brings back a flood of memories.
CAIR’s HQ is just one block from the DNC and just across the street from the PEPCO powerpalnt the supllies Capitol Hill. Naturally the RNC is not too far away either.

Oh wow...
I don’t even know where to begin. The comments on this picture are so wrong primarily because SOME OF THE PEOPLE WITH CAPTIONS ARE NOT IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM MUSLIMS, jihadist or otherwise!!!!!!
The women next ot the girl in a white veil is wearing a traditional Indian dress and her head is not covered. She’s an Indian.
The turban guy? That’s a SIKH turban, not to be confused with an Arabic turban. This is pretty egregious because historically the Sikhs had more than their fair share of scrapes with Muslims, esp in the Kashmir region.
By all means bash CAIR, they deserve it. But it has to be done in a thoughtful intelligent manner. This would be a pretty good cartoon thingy IF ALL THE PEOPLE ARE FROM CAIR, which they most certainly are not. We don’t look like the “best and the brightest” when we mistake Indians, Hindus/Sikhs for Muslims.
Like Carlos Mencia said, we don’t want the “Bobbidi Bobbidi” guys, we want the “HAK” guys.
You're right... the cartoon thingy should have been done in a thoughtful intelligent manner with all of them (including the SWEDE) thinking "ALLAH AKBAR!"
We dont look like the best and the brightest when we mistake Indians, Hindus/Sikhs for people who can't be USED by CAIR.
I know about the Swede. At least the author didn’t give him an Islamofascist caption, although a case could be made that he should have a caption because there are white Muslims. In any case, having the two Indians speak like a Muslim indicates that the author couldn’t distinguish between Muslim and Indian. More fitting captions would be along the lines of them swallowing the lies or thinking hippy thoughts.
“You’re right... the cartoon thingy should have been done in a thoughtful intelligent manner with all of them (including the SWEDE) thinking “ALLAH AKBAR!”
No that wouldn’t be funny. There’s no punchline. And it still wouldn’t address the fact that the author couldn’t distinguish ethnicity.
“We dont look like the best and the brightest when we mistake Indians, Hindus/Sikhs for people who can’t be USED by CAIR.”
Of course they can be used by CAIR. That’s not the point. The point is the author can’t tell Indian and Sikh apart from Muslims and gave them IF captions. It’s like how some racist scumbags attack Sikhs thinking they are Muslims to “avenge” 9/11. It makes us look stupid. It’s the equivalent of taking a picture of Koreans and having them say something Chinese.
That about sum it up?
No, it doesn’t. I’m simply saying that it makes us look ignorant when we mistake one ethnicity for another. Go ahead, give them Dhimmi quotes. But don’t give them Islamofascist quotes because they aren’t Muslims.
What would you think if during the spy plane crisis someone took a picture of the South Korean government in session and posted Chicom propaganda captions. That’d make the person look pretty stupid wouldn’t it, not being able to tell Chinese apart from Korean.
That’s my point. The absolute LAST thing we need is to give legitimacy to the liberal claim that we are ignorant bigots who think “they all look alike”. It doesn’t matter if the claim is false, it’s the perception that the claim creates. You know, the whole “fake but accurate.”
