More Thoughts On Proctor Vs. CAIR


Aaron Proctor is back again writing for Examiner.Com albeit with the restriction that he not write about CAIR or Islam.

His loss of income, and pain and suffering from the incident strikes one as being rather demonstrable.

And that Mr. Proctor found himself in these circumstances as a result of this letter by CAIR-Pennsylvania (or is it CAIR-Philadelphia) Executive Director Moein Khawaja is quite undeniable.

So is it  defamatory to  tell Mr. Proctor’s employer that “as a precaution, CAIR-Philadelphia has taken steps to notify local police of the possibility that Mr. Proctor will be a security threat to our annual banquet  . . .We are particularly concerned as many families with children plan to attend.  We have forwarded his profile picture to police”

It certainly seems so unless Mr. Proctor had advocated violence which he does not appear to have done in the articles to which Mr. Khawaja objected.

Hope no greedy lawyer connects these dots. CAIR-Philadelphia could be on the receiving end of untold aggravation by some hungry quick-buck type looking to take advantage of Mr. Proctor’s plight and make a name for himself as per Ralph Nader and Morris Dees. We certainly wouldn’t want that to happen.



Proctor Returns To Examiner But Will Pursue CAIR On Web Radio


Aaron Proctor, the conservative-libertarian journalist suspended by Examiner.Com after a complaint from CAIR-Philadelphia, has been returned to duty.

Proctor had written articles about the controversial Islamic organization with regard to their looming March 12 banquet at the Springfield Country Club in Delaware County.

Proctor said, however, he has voluntarily removed his CAIR articles from the Examiner site and will not be writing about the organization or Islam for the publication.

He said, however, he will pursue the issue in other venues.

“This doesn’t mean I won’t be discussing the situation on my show tomorrow at blogtalkradio.com/proctorshow or in the future on ‘The Aaron Proctor Show,'” he said. “I am afforded a wonderful, weekly venue every Tuesday night at 8 p.m. that does not give me the constraints of my free speech like the ones instituted by Examiner.com.”



CAIR Articles Get Journalist Suspended

CAIR Articles Get Journalist Suspended — Aaron Proctor, who has been writing about libertarian matters for Examiner.Com since April, has been suspended from the organization due to  several articles he wrote critical of CAIR regarding CAIR-Philadelphia’s  March 12 banquet at the Springfield Country Club on Sproul Road.

CAIR Articles Get Journalist SuspendedIn a letter to Examiner Category Director Jay Keller, CAIR-Philadelphia Executive Director Mocin Khawaja implied Proctor made  statements that were “libelous and defamatory.” He  took special issue with Proctor pointing out that CAIR was an un-indicted co-conspirator in a terrorist case involving groups donating money to Hamas.

CAIR-Philadelphia and CAIR are legally distinct entities, Khawala said.

So there!

Mr. Khawala, for what it’s worth, the letterhead of your missive said CAIR Pennsylvania. If legalistic distinctions are your thing, maybe you ought to fix that.

One of the scheduled speakers at the event is Imam Johari Abdul-Malik. Is it “hate-speech” to point that out? Is it somehow more hateful to criticize CAIR — Philadelphia or otherwise — than it is to demean the murder of Fulton County, Georgia sheriff’s deputy Ricky Kinchen by the former H.Rap Brown in 2000 as Malik did?

Khawala, showing the tolerance and restraint for which CAIR — the legal entity separate from CAIR-Philadelphia —  is famous, told Keller that he believes Proctor is  a security threat and that he has forwarded his Examiner profile picture to police.

Perhaps the message budding journalists should take is that if they want to criticize a religion they should stick to the Catholic Church or Christian evangelicals.

CAIR Comes To Springfield

CAIR Comes To Springfield — CAIR Pennsylvania — the state affiliate of the Council on American-Islamic Relations —  has scheduled a banquet , 6:30 p.m., March 12 at the Springfield Country Club, which has been called the unofficial headquarters of the Springfield Republican Party.

It was the place, in fact, where John McCain kicked off his 2008 presidential campaign after officially becoming the GOP’s nominee.

The theme is “Advancing With Confidence” and the event is being called an “entertaining night out for the whole family.”

The entertainment is “world renowned” David Lucas and Ken Kaplin for the children, and a clown who will do balloon twisting.

Speakers are Dr. Umar Faruq Abdullah and Imam Johari Abdul-Malik.

Perhaps you have heard of Imam Adul-Malik. He came out in defense of Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin, aka H. Rap Brown, after he was convicted of murdering Fulon County, Ga. sheriff deputy Ricky Leon Kinchen in March 2002, saying the former Mr. Brown was framed.

That same month he said the raid in northern Virgina which netted Sami Al-Arian was a witch hunt. Al-Arian would be sentenced to 57 month in prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy to help a “specially designated terrorist” organization, which in this case was the Islamic Jihad.

He would then go on to support for other terrorists like Ahmed Omar Abu Ali and Ali al Timimi.

It sounds like an entertaining night out for the whole family.

0Care Taxes That You May Not Know About


Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the current tax deduction for Blue Cross/Blue Shield companies would only be allowed if 85 percent or more of premium revenues are spent on clinical services.

Under the act there will be a $50,000 per hospital excise tax on charitable hospitals that fail to  meet new “community health assessment needs,” “financial assistance,” and “billing and collection” rules set by Department of Health and Human Services.

Under the act, the tax deduction for employer-provided retirement prescription drug coverage will be ended.

The Americans for Tax Reform has a detailed list as to how this bureaucratic nightmare passed last March is going to make our lives our harder and why we must repeal it as promised by the newly elected House. It can be found here.

Oh, and did you know that there will be exemptions to Individual Mandate Excise Tax starting in 2014 to anyone not buying “qualifying” health insurance.

Those eligible for the exemptions are, according to ATR,  religious objectors, undocumented immigrants, prisoners, those earning less than the poverty line, members of Indian tribes, and hardship cases determined by HHS.

What religions could possibly be included? Will it be the one discussed at the link?

Lincoln Professor Kaukab Siddique And Antisemitism

Comments made at a Sept. 3 rally in Washington D.C. that were recorded then aired by the Christian Broadcasting Network are coming back to haunt Lincoln University professor Kaukab Siddique along with old emails dug by CBN investigative journalists.

At the rally, Siddique, who teaches English, literature and journalism, said “We must stand united to defeat, to destroy, to dismantle Israel, if possible by peaceful means. Perhaps, like Saladin, we will give them enough food and water to travel back to the lands from where they came to occupy other people.”

In the email exchanges Siddique was found to have said “The Holocaust is a hoax. Get over it.” and that there is “not one document to prove it happened.”

CBN says the record of Siddique’s hatred for Jews goes back at least a dozen years.

Lincoln in Oxford, Chester County, is the nation’s first degree-granting black college. Alumni include Thurgood Marshall, Langston Hughes and Cab Calloway. It is  part of Pennsylvania’s Commonwealth System of Higher Education along with Penn State, Temple and the University of Pittsburgh. These schools are independent of state management but still receive public money, which in Lincoln’s case is about $14 million per year.

Two state senators who represent parts of Delaware County, Daylin Leach of the 17th District and Anthony H. Williams of the 8th District , both Democrats, have written a letter to Lincoln University President Ivory V. Nelson expressing concern about the bizarre, hate-filled statements and noting that while “you are entitled to your own opinions, but you are not entitled to your own facts.”

They pointed out that the state has a no-tolerance policy regarding hate speech for state-supported institutions and  demanded to know the level of awareness held by Lincoln’s administration regarding Siddique’s comments and what steps the school was taking to keep Siddique from teaching false claims to his students.

Lincoln answered that Siddique has not made such claims to his students and that tenure keeps him from being fired.

The strange and sad thing is that one suspects that most Jews in Siddique’s home state of Maryland on Tuesday voted for the same candidates as Siddique did.

Soros Edition Or All Things Soros

Soros Edition Or All Things Soros — National Public Radio fired commentator Juan Williams last night after he said on The O’Reilly Factor two nights earlier that “. . .when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.

So much for the principle of speaking one’s mind without fear.

NPR does not, however, have to worry about funding for a replacement. The night Williams was speaking truth to power it was reported Nazi collaborator and big-time Democrat Party supporter George Soros had made a $1.8 million contribution to the organization.

NPR is non-profit membership media syndicator. Despite its non-profit status it had net income of $18.9 million last year . Public funding accounts for about 16 percent of its member stations’ income albeit some stations in rural areas get 70 percent of its revenue from taxpayers.

In Fall 2008, NPR programming reached  27.5 million people weekly with Morning Edition and the afternoon All Things Considered. Five years ago the Harris Poll showed it to be the must trusted source for news.

Are Muslims Exempt From Obamacare? II


Back in March, we investigated claims that Muslims are exempt from the Obamacare mandate to buy health insurance — which is basically the heart of the law — and concluded “maybe” but that you couldn’t really tell from the garbage that was passed.

It turns out Snopes has also investigated the claims and has arrived at the same conclusion.

“The bottom line is that the health insurance  provision of (the law) doesn’t kick in until the year 2014, and between then and now many challenges will likely be launched regarding who might be exempt from it,” it said.

That’s a more polite way of saying “this was one badly written bill” but it means the same thing.

This is the sanest Supreme Court in the last 60 years. Hopefully, it will find from these challenges that the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” is unconstitutional.

Still to  provide insurance in case the court should fail, as we have become almost conditioned to expect, it is vital to vote Nov. 2 to throw out the Democrat fools who voted for this nation-killing, senior-citizen-killing, baby-killing monstrosity and put people in who will repeal it, and actually read the laws they pass.

So Maybe Obama Is A Muslim

President Obama is coming to Philly, Sept. 20, to raise money for Joe Sestak’s campaign to be senator from Pennsylvania.

So Joe, you couldn’t get Mel Gibson ? The President is not a bad replacement choice. He seem to share the same warm feelings towards Israel and Jewish people as the Oscar-winning actor. And Chuck Hagel. And CAIR .

Hey, maybe the President is a Muslim after all.

Oh, I’m just joshing. The President likes his booze way too much and no Muslim could ever be such a fanatic supporter of unrestricted abortion.

But he really ought to haul Michelle with him the next time he visits Saudi Arabia. They never did take that Indonesian trip.

 

The Mosque

I think they should build the mosque.  Bill and I hardly ever disagree but in this case I say build that mosque and Community Center there so kids can meet, community groups can rent office space at a low rate, people can work out and they can bring a vibrant socially responsive environment to that area.  We should build some Freedom of Speech Zones for the protestors that are about a mile away like the zones at the Democratic Convention and let them stand out in some field somewhere and holler as much as they want.  Better yet, let them write letters to their Representatives and see how much that does.  If Pat Roberston is against it, I’m for it.
