| Savage lawsuit calls CAIR 'vehicle of international terrorism' |
| 2007-12-01 |
| Trend-setting radio talk show host Michael Savage has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against the Council on Islamic-American Relations, and has accused the organization of being a "political vehicle of international terrorism" that seeks to do "material harm to those voices who speak against the violent agenda of CAIR's clients." The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in California, seeks damages equal to the ongoing donations from CAIR supporters "who expect CAIR to act in this manner in exchange for continuing financial support" as well as "actual damages according to proof." A spokesman for Savage indicated the top-rated talk show host would have no further comment, saying the text of the lawsuit itself would answer questions. |

| #13 I am not a big fan of Mike Savge but I do find him imformative. He has been attacked RELENTLESSLY by the moonbats in San Fran and yet he still is on the air and making money. CAIR would do well to settle quick and quietly. |

| #12 "I'm not gonna put my wife in a hijab. And I'm not gonna put my daughter in a burqa. And I'm not getting' on my all-fours and braying to Mecca. And you could drop dead if you don't like it. You can shove it up your pipe. I don't wanna hear any more about Islam. I don't wanna hear one more word about Islam. Take your religion and shove it up your behind. I'm sick of you." A refreshing bit of candor if ever there was. If this message is finally reaching a large American audience it can only be a really good thing. There is good potential to be a new cottage industry in suing radical Muslim organizations in the US. Not just fronts like this, but really running the gamut from RICO to "hate speech" against "charities" that fund terrorism and mosques that preach hate. One can only hope that—pending judicial approval of the case—Horowitz will force CAIR to undergo proctological levels of discovery. This represents a golden opportunity in that CAIR will not be able to abruptly quit the case like they did in their Anti-CAIR lawsuit. Once Hooper, Awad, Ahmad and their cronies are thrust under the legal microscope, all of them need to be pinned down and dissected like the pustulent nematodes that they are. Savage's efforts amount to nothing less than a community service. |

| #9 Sounds like it's time to change our tactics, a flood of lawsuits could shut them down quick with only a few wins. Heaven knows they've played this game to their own ends more than a few times. Maybe this could be the thing that pulls their teeth. |

| #8 The link doesn't work for me, doc. McZoid, MEMRI is an apolitical group that only translates things with additional analysis, they don't use clips to support requests for money. CAIR explicitly plans to use the money raised by this method to support political lobbying. |

| #4 There is good potential to be a new cottage industry in suing radical Muslim organizations in the US. Not just fronts like this, but really running the gamut from RICO to "hate speech" against "charities" that fund terrorism and mosques that preach hate. A big bitch slap could come from Jewish organizations who could nail them for sermons or publications that advocate violence, which under many circumstances is a criminal act. The bottom line is that they routinely engage in behavior that is prohibited to others and get away with it. Once the light dawns that they can be sued for it, the flood gates will open. |

| #3 Unfortunately, CAIR is only aping Memri and other sites who use clipped material in exercise of freedom of expression. However, I have long advocating the banning of CAIR as a Muslim Brotherhood appendage. They are rear guard to the front line terrorists. They use money rather than guns, but its all jihad. |
