BARBARA'S TCHATZKAHS

Cross posted in support of HARRY's PLACE Last Friday, in the wake of a closely argued debate about whether Mohammed Sawalha, the President of the British Muslim Initiative, had used the phrase “Evil Jew” or “Jewish Lobby” in a speech, Harry’s Place received a letter . The letter is from Dean and Dean, a firm of solicitors who are acting for Mr Sawalha. Mr Sawalha has demanded that we take down certain articles from Harry’s Place, and publish an apology “in the attached wording”. The solicitors have failed to attach the apology that Mr Sawalha insists we publish. That omission matters little, as we have no intention of apologising to him at all, nor of taking down any article. We have responded to Mr Sawalha’s solicitors, through Mishcon de Reya, who are acting for us. Mr Sawalha claims that we have “chosen a malevolent interpretation of a meaningless word”.

And we need to say ENOUGH rather than continuing to pander and apologize while evil dulls our senses of morality, justice and good.

TRYING TO REASON WITH THEM, VIA BLOG I've been blogging over 4 years now and only in the last 6 months are so have I been out from under a repressing relationship to feel free to talk politics, among other things. I am alway's shocked when I see how many people do read my humble blog here. My other blog has had well over 200,000 hits - which is sad that people have to be looking up information on abuse that much. That said, looks like someone is trying the new voice of the people - blogging - to reach out to Muslims. Personally I think the Islamofascists are too brainwashed to get the critical thinking and too scared of retribution to appreciate what this guy is trying to do. At State Dept., Blog Team Joins Muslim Debate By NEIL MacFARQUHAR Walid Jawad was tired of all the chatter on Middle Eastern blogs and Internet forums in praise of gory attacks carried out by the “noble resistance” in Iraq. So Mr. Jawad, one of two Arabic-speaking members of what the State Departmen...
