| Farrakhan sez there's not enough proof against Binny |
| 2001-10-30 |
In the wake of the unspeakable grief spawned by the September 11 mass murders, this same Louis Farrakhan has seen fit to charge that America has insufficient proof of bin Laden’s and al-Qaida’s culpability. "They [American government officials] have lied before," says the Nation of Islam kingpin, "and there’s no guarantee they’re not lying now." His next logical leap, of course, was to assert that if bin Laden is not to blame, then our military forces have no legitimate "reason to fight." Presumably neither bin Laden’s smug assurance that airliners would continue to "rain" down upon American cities, nor his advice that Muslims in the US should avoid airplanes and skyscrapers for the foreseeable future, nor his well-established involvement in past atrocities against our nation, arouse any suspicions in Mr. Farrakhan’s ostensibly fertile mind. For the True Disbeliever, there'll never be enough proof. If Binny's found standing over a slaughtered American with a knife in his hand and blood all over him, people like Farrakhan will say he's been framed. |
