Last week, the FBI issued a bulletin about Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, the Egyptian cleric who is considered the spiritual leader for groups of militant Muslims. Abdel-Rahman, who has been serving a prison sentence for planning to blow up various NYC landmarks, was found to have a tumor on his liver. And considering that he's been in poor health, the FBI was prompted to remind authorities that "Rahman pleaded for followers to 'extract the most violent revenge' should he die in U.S. custody." Hmm.
Abdel-Rahman's lawyer Lynne Stewart was found guilty of carrying out his messages while he was in custody. She was sentenced to 28 months in prison.

We must not show fear when faced by the enemy. Since this enemy cannot be seen, exactly, it follows we should never show fear.
Got to love his fashionable Ray-Bans.
I'll take a crazed Muslim cleric over a crazed Texan a-hole who can't speak proper English ANY DAY.
I love that old time rock and roll!
Bring it, fundamentalists, it's Christmas time in Hollis Queens.
Tumor, eh? Maybe they'll wage a jihad against cancer, instead.
Cancer. It's the new infidel.
allah must be angry with the sheik's liver
damn you liver, damn you to hell!

Yeah, Ben. I'm sure they'll spare you because you said that. Maybe you'll get a bullet instead of a beheading.

Yeah you're by yourself there champ. I don't love the president but i'd prefer not being exploded.
Liberate occupied Atlantic Avenue and Bay Ridge. By any means necessary.
So you're just going to let that last statement about Lynne Stewart hang in the air, Jen? Come on, what's the implication?
Lynne Stewart was convicted over a press release about a cease-fire in Egypt. A dumb breach of protocol but we have no reason to think she's ever hurt a human being in her life.
And in your previous coverage of the case did you bother referencing Democracy Now or The Nation, who detailed how the Feds turned the trial into a witch hunt intended to scare off defense lawyers who think our judicial process is...you know, valuable? No! No you did not. You just linked to the tabs and the Sun. Now who's providing material support to the enemies of democracy?
As you love to say, Jen:
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Someone should put the sheik on the Fidel Castro health regimen; not only will he live to a ripe old age but his beard will grow nice and fluffy too.
Nervous? I think we should throw a party in Times Square to celebrate.
Speaking of parties, check out the party crash pics at Lynne Stewarts last soiree:

Ben, I blame you for the 2000 election loss. Thanks for voting green, it's because of you the dems lost.

He was actually a big fan of the Blues Brothers. Not sure about the Santa hat though :)
Just stick a needle in his arm and be done with it.
Can't we just tie some rocks to his ankles, and dump him in the river..?

but he's not in NYC. He's in Colorado. I say we freeze him in a block of ice and feed to the polar bears in the arctic.
I say we take his sunglasses and poke, poke, poke him in the eyeballs. Poke him in the eyeballs.
