#4 If you put CAIR and Anti-CAIR together, is it like a matter-antimatter reaction?

#5 Private parties seem to have been more successful in court with CAIR than the DoJ has been with the terrs. hmmmm.

#6 Tort law vs. criminal law, Nimble Spemble. The level of proof is different. That, and the Court was about to require CAIR to open its records on donation lists, membership, links to terror groups, and old speeches made by the leadership. The moment those kinds of things are revealed, CAIR will be toast, and no doubt all its officers and employees go to jail. They couldn't maintain the bluff.

#7 The level of proof is different. That, and the Court was about to require CAIR to open its records on donation lists, membership, links to terror groups, and old speeches made by the leadership.

A similar thing just happened recently in Boston where an "Islamic Center" was suing everybody and their mother over unflattering (i.e. truthful) reporting about its activities and funding. The suit was dropped like a hot potato when they discovered that the discovery process cuts both ways. Here's a little background.

#8 Let this be a lesson to all of us. Outfits like CAIR will use every tool to undermine the US, its culture, and its institutions, just like the ACLU. The only way to stop them is to confront them. Andrew Whitehead showed a great deal of courage in exposing CAIR. I would like to see the same courage in our government against organizations like CAIR.

#9 Let it be so, AAP. Maybe you should issue a fatwa?

#10 No need to, BA. Mr. Whitehead is doing well without a fatwa, thankyouverymuch, heh.
