Freedom in America
Posted by Tina
A recent discussion about supposed repression of our freedoms by the Bush administration prompted me to post this story out of New York City:
“U.S. Based Revolution Muslim Website Spreading Messages of Hate,” Fox News, by Staff
On any given day, log on to RevolutionMuslim.com and a host of startling images appear:
The Statue of Liberty, with an ax blade cutting through her side ** Video mocking the beheading of American journalist Daniel Pearl, entitled "Daniel Pearl I am Happy Your Dead :) " ** Video of a puppet show lampooning U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq ** The latest speech from Sheikh Abdullah Faisal, an extremist Muslim cleric convicted in the UK and later deported for soliciting the murder of non-Muslims.
Even more surprising is that RevolutionMuslim.com isn't being maintained in some remote safe house in Pakistan. Instead, Yousef al-Khattab, the Web site creator, runs it from his home in the New York City Borough of Queens. ** And, because al-Khattab enjoys the First Amendment right to freedom of speech, all the authorities can do is watch.
If the Bush Administration hasn't yet sicked the "Bush SS" on this anti-American lunatic, spreading his hateful propaganda on US soil, I think it's safe to say our “guest commenter’s" freedom worries are demonstrated to be completely unfounded.

Now lets say Congress had declared a war on Iraq and then along comes this guy Yousef al-Khattab and creates this hatefilled websight encouraging violence against Americans by our enemies. Then we could legally kick down his door and put him in handcuffs for treason.
However, that being said, give me his address and I will make some calls to the J-D-L; they don't care about legal, they just care about justice.
