Lynne Stewart gets 28 months in prison for aiding the jihad

Do you remember why Lynne Stewart decided to become a Useful Idiot for the jihadists? Here it is in her own words: "To rid ourselves of the entrenched, voracious type of capitalism that is in this country that perpetuates sexism and racism, I don't think that can come nonviolently."

Right. Omar Abdel Rahman, champion of the struggle against racism and sexism. It's beyond parody, folks, like so many things these days.

"Civil rights lawyer sentenced to prison," by Larry Neumeister for Associated Press:

NEW YORK - Civil rights lawyer Lynne Stewart was sentenced Monday to 28 months in prison on a terrorism charge for helping a client who plotted to blow up New York City landmarks communicate with his followers, a sentence far less than 30 years prosecutors wanted.

Stewart, 67, smiled as the judge announced he would send her to prison for less than 2 1/2 years.

"If you send her to prison, she's going to die. It's as simple as that," defense lawyer Elizabeth Fink had told the judge before the sentence was pronounced.

Stewart, who was treated last year for breast cancer, was convicted in 2005 of providing material support to terrorists. She had released a statement by Omar Abdel-Rahman, a blind Egyptian sheik sentenced to life in prison after he was convicted in plots to blow up five New York landmarks and assassinate Egypt's president.

Prosecutors have called the case a major victory in the war on terrorism. They said Stewart and other defendants carried messages between the sheik and senior members of an Egyptian-based terrorist organization, helping spread Abdel-Rahman's call to kill those who did not subscribe to his extremist interpretation of Islamic law.

In a letter to the judge before her hearing, Stewart proclaimed: "I am not a traitor."

"The end of my career truly is like a sword in my side," She said in court Monday. "Permit me to live out the rest of my life productively, lovingly, righteously."

In a pre-sentence document, prosecutors told U.S. District Judge John G. Koeltl that Stewart's "egregious, flagrant abuse of her profession, abuse that amounted to material support to a terrorist group, deserves to be severely punished."

Stewart, in her letter to the judge, said she did not intentionally enter into any plot or conspiracy to aid a terrorist organization. She believes the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks made her behavior intolerable in the eyes of the government and gave it an excuse to make an example out of her.

"The government's characterization of me and what occurred is inaccurate and untrue," she wrote. "It takes unfair advantage of the climate of urgency and hysteria that followed 9/11 and that was relived during the trial. I did not intentionally enter into any plot or conspiracy to aid a terrorist organization."

Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Dember argued at her sentencing that the case had nothing to with Sept. 11.

"What she was doing was smuggling terrorism messages and smuggling out Abdel-Rahman's responses," Dember said.

About 150 Stewart supporters who could not get inside the capacity-filled courtroom stood outside the courthouse, chanting "Free Lynne, Free Lynne." Some 200 others jammed the hallways outside the courtroom.

"It's not just Lynn Stewart who is a victim, it's the Bill of Rights that's the victim," said Al Dorfman, 72, a retired lawyer who joined the crowd outside.

Meanwhile, as the jihad's stooges nattered, one of Stewart's accomplices got 24 years:

Stewart was arrested six months after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, along with Mohamed Yousry, an Arabic interpreter, and Ahmed Abdel Sattar, a U.S. postal worker. The indictment against them was brought by former Attorney General John Ashcroft in 2002.

Koeltl sentenced Sattar to 24 years in prison. Convicted of conspiracy to kill and kidnap people in a foreign country, he could have been sentenced to life.

"I am not a violent person," Sattar said. "I am a human being. I am an America. I am a Muslim who practices and believes strongly in his religion."

I'm sure you are, Sattar.

Yes, it's beyond parody, but it's not beyond the sort of leftist mentality that Lynne Stewart possesses.

We speak here of a woman who is solely and entirely against. She hasn't yet learned that that's not enough -- and at her age, she's unlikely to learn it this side of the grass.

"egregious, flagrant abuse of her profession, abuse that amounted to material support to a terrorist group, deserves to be severely punished."

Two and half years is hardly a sever punishment! Now wonder we are in such a mess in this War on Terror. This war should be called War on M-Terrorists. War on Terror does not convince me that we are fighting a real war.

This sounds like the Rosenberg situation all over again. Let's free her because she's innocent, blah blah blah. What a joke. Like the Rosenbergs she's guilty of aiding the enemy. It is regrettable that she does not get what they got-she can thank our PC corrupted society for that.

And yes, Ms Stewart, you are indeed a traitor.

of course the sentence is ridiculously light. Nor do I appreciate stewart's hypocritical claim that she didn't know she was aiding a terrorist group.
The prosecution should appeal the sentence but they are probably under orders from above not to do so.

Her defense lawyer is Elizabeth Fink?

"It's beyond parody, folks, like so many things these days."

You can say that again.

From Yahoo dictionary:

fink - slang

A contemptible person.
An informer.
A hired strikebreaker.

re islamforlosers' comment.
Actually stewart is worse. At the time that the Rosenberg's spied for the USSR, the USA and USSR were allies. Furthermore, the major atomic spies were other persons, and those of them who were convicted got sentences of a few years, not death.
Also, check out Harry Hopkins' role in supplying atomic info to the Soviets.

This is too sweet a deal for this traitor, regardless of her age. It is a travesty of justice that the old bag didn't get a life sentence or better yet, a good noose. It makes one wonder what that Adan the American (or whatever the miserable s.o.b. traitor is called) will get in our courts. It goes to show that the court system is not competent to deal with the islamic threat.

As for me, I'll keep my "powder" dry!

Only 2.5 years?!! That's a shame. Still, it's satisfying to see this commie traitor going to jail. Commie beeatch. ;)

Lawyer: "Ms Stewart can't do 28 months, she'll die in prison"

Pelayo: "Well, she can do however much she's able to do"

Incredible! What a light sentence, even for a multicultiwarmfuzzytouchyfeely Clinton appointee. The evidence of serious charges was clear.

I only hope that Lynne Stewart has the same prison doctor as Jim McDougal.

chsw

She has a good heart. They should rip it out of her chest and donate it to a human being.

To rid ourselves of the entrenched, voracious type of capitalism that is in this country that perpetuates sexism and racism, I don't think that can come nonviolently."

In case anybody here thinks that my constant ranting about the anti-western conspiracy of the Left is some manifestation of a brain tumor, let her quote stand as the penultimate expression of the Left.

She conspires with islam, not because she is islamic, or cares one whit about islam. She conspires with them because they are an enemy of her enemy - the west. And why does she hate the west? She hates the "capitalism", the "sexism", the "racism". So why is she defending islamic extremists? Because they are an enemy of the state she hates.

So they are comrades.

She is exactly like Marx in the sense that she wants to tear down the oppressive order that exists only in her twisted mind. Marx gave the world communism for that purpose.

What is the connection between her and communism? Let it be noted that it was a communist that was the founder of the ACLU. Not a libertarian, as they masquerade today. So it all comes full circle. From marxism to marxism.

The Left is in bed with islam, not out of any sympathy of the downtrodden. The Left does not care about the oppressed of the earth, never did. It was only a mantra used to gain power from the ignorant masses so that they could implement their plans to overthrow the West, which to them, meant capitalist Christian men and all that those words entail in their minds. They wanted to turn the whole world into a gulag. Just as islam wishes to do.

So when these islamics, these terrrorists, turned up in our society, this lawywer, this leftist soldier, took up the old cause. But few, so very few, have ever admitted what motivates them, in their heart of hearts. She did. She came right out and said it.

Read her quote again. I mean really read that. That is a rare look into their operating system.

So when you hear me say that the real threat comes from the Left, you will know where I'm coming from. Islam, or any enemy for that matter, can not hurt us unless we welcome them to. Externally, we are too powerful. This is where the Left comes into play. They are already amongst us. In our military, in our government, in our institutions of higher learning, in our schools, in our media, in our newspapers, in our entertainment sources.

That is why we call them the fifth column. They are a trojan horse. They will let the islamics in. Literally, let them in, to finish us off.

It's an inside job.

It should have been 28 years, all of it spent scrubbing out FDNY toilets with a toothbrush. Die witch, die.

28 months? Shouldn't terror related charges carry a mandatory life sentence, if not death?

Lynne Steward, prototype of the unhinged lefty looney moon-bats, a commie-shill with a lawyers ticket, (how did she get it?) and the typically romantic idea that 'all revolution is good' as long as it destroys the system...

Why has she not been tried for treason? Why should anybody be concerned whether she dies in jail or that her punishment may not be good for her health?

People like her endanger everybody. They are a greater threat than Syphilis & AIDS, worse than rabies and the plague. You don't change the lunacy of such people and leniency should not be on the cards. Do your time Lynne, start seeing things from the 'inside..'

It is another classic case of the islamists using left-leaning liberals to advance their agenda.

This woman should be allowed to go free...and taken immediately to pakistan. There, she can live out her last years enjoying all their rights extended to women.

I guess the liberals would prefer Americans to be persecuted and oppressed as opposed to productve and prosperous. What a bunch of self-loathing, self-righteous jackasses.

I know this will sound bad, but we need an anti-islamic politician with Joseph McCarthy tactics. This will add some balance to the current "islam is peace" environment.

islam = barbaric death cult bent on world domination

And we stand by and watch them build mosques and schools in our country.

"I am not a traitor."

"Permit me to live out the rest of my life productively, lovingly, righteously."

One must accept the fact that if you are an American, then you are an American first. Don't try & twist civil rights and the constitution in such a manner where you believe you are protected from supporting or aiding terrorism. The constitution and rights were never designed to protect "traitors" in those ways.

I'm sick & tired of these people who think their "rights" emcompass all actions and associations!

*Well Said* Judge Pelayo !!

6 go on trial for allegedly plotting an attack against Dutch politicians
The Associated Press

Published: October 16, 2006


AMSTERDAM, Netherlands Six Muslims accused of plotting an attack against Dutch politicians went on trial Monday, including one man whose previous arrests and acquittal have underscored the difficulty of winning convictions in terrorism cases.

Samir Azzouz, now 20, has been arrested three times in anti-terrorism sweeps in the Netherlands. He was acquitted last year of an alleged terrorist conspiracy.

Months after his release, Azzouz was arrested again in a separate, alleged assassination plot.

After Azzouz's earlier acquittal, the government passed new laws outlawing membership in a terrorist organization or "recruiting" for a terrorist network. Azzouz is charged with both.

"The suspects were preparing to carry out attacks against one or more Dutch politicians," prosecutor Bart den Hartigh said in opening statements.

Evidence against Azzouz includes an apparent suicide message he recorded — leaked and broadcast on national television — in which he holds an automatic rifle and says he wants to punish the Dutch people for their government's support of the U.S.-led war on terrorism.

"You are considered warriors because you chose this government. Your possessions and blood are promised to us," he said on the video tape.

In court, Azzouz wore a red sweater with no head covering, and grinned and chatted with his co-defendants.

Defense lawyer Victor Koppe says Azzouz is innocent of any wrongdoing and his latest prosecution shows authorities are prejudiced against him and harassing him.

Other evidence in the current case includes automatic weapons, bomb-making manuals and a list of the home addresses of politicians, including Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende and former member of parliament Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

Azzouz has had several previous run-ins with authorities.

In June 2004, he was arrested in connection with the armed robbery of a grocery store. Police found bomb-making materials and detailed maps at his home of the Dutch parliament, Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport and a nuclear reactor.

They also found ammunition clips and a silencer for automatic weapons, night vision goggles and a bulletproof vest.

He was taken into custody, and the country was put on a nationwide terror alert that lasted for several weeks.

In the April 2005 verdict, judges ruled the bomb-making materials he had assembled were not capable of causing an explosion. He was convicted only on weapons possession charges and released with time served.

The Dutch secret service said then it considers him a terrorist, and the agency keeps him under constant surveillance.

Earlier, he was arrested in October 2003, along with four members of the Islamist group prosecutors now call the Hofstad Network. All were released when the judges found that evidence gathered by the secret service was improperly used as criminal evidence.

Parliament later enacted legislation allowing the use of secret service evidence in criminal trials.

Nine members of the Hofstad group were convicted for membership in a terrorist organization earlier this year, including Mohammed Bouyeri, the radical already serving a life sentence for the November 2004 murder of filmmaker Theo van Gogh.

Bouyeri and Azzouz are both Dutch nationals of Moroccan ancestry, and grew up on the same block in a poor neighborhood of west Amsterdam.

The other suspects in the current case are Nouredine al Fatmi, serving a five-year sentence for his role in the Hofstad group, his wife Soumaya Sahla, Mohammed Chentouf, Mohammed Hamdi and Brahim Harhour.

Judge Dismisses Terror Charges Against Lawyer

MICHAEL WILSON

A federal judge yesterday dismissed charges that the lawyer Lynne F. Stewart supported terrorism by helping an imprisoned sheik direct terrorist operations in Egypt. But the judge let stand lesser charges that she lied to and defrauded the federal government.

Stewart was accused of helping Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, who was convicted of plotting to blow up New York landmarks, by helping him to pass messages to the Islamic Group, a terrorist group he once led. The charges were announced in April 2002 by Attorney General John Ashcroft, who called the case the first use of a new rule that allows the Bureau of Prisons to monitor conversations between lawyers and inmates who are threats to commit "future acts of violence or terrorism."

In his ruling yesterday, Judge John G. Koeltl of United States District Court called the terrorism counts against Ms. Stewart and a translator unconstitutionally vague. The judge said that the antiterrorism statute could not apply to a lawyer doing her job.

"The government fails to explain how a lawyer, acting as an agent of her client" who is an alleged leader of a terrorist organization "could avoid being subject to criminal prosecution as a 'quasi-employee,' " said Judge Koeltl, who was appointed by President Bill Clinton in 1994.

OH, that Judge Koeltl.

sorry for the double posting above!

Lynne Stewart's 9-page letter to the judge can be viewed at: http://www.lynnestewart.org/

It's 9 pages of pathetic downplaying and excuses for her actions; saying she was overly optimistic, naive, careless, too trusting...that she only wanted to be the best advocate for her client. The last page is especially nauseating as she plays the "victim card" and of course, doesn't forget to mention her breast cancer for extra victimhood points.

I couldn't see anywhere that she was "sorry" for either her actions or for the repercussions of her actions. Without remorse there can be no rehabilitation. I hope her license to practice law has been suspended for life.

They took her lawyer chit right?

August22,

They wanted to turn the whole world into a gulag. Just as islam wishes to do.

Precise, succint, and I fully agree.

The tragedy of the Western Left ever since the 1960's is it's been overrun by the Far Left, the world-dominating, totalitarian ideology spawned by Marx. The center-Left, the true Liberals, those of the FDR days, have been all but silenced, with only a few holdouts and revivalists to be found.

It wasn't thoughts about economics that made me leave the Left, it was their betrayal of their FDR-era predecessors. I'm on the Right because the Right still basically stands up for liberal (in the original sense of the word) values. There's an illiberal Far Right (David Duke's ilk), but it hasn't taken hold of the mainstream of the Right as the Far Left has done for the Left.

"To rid ourselves of the entrenched, voracious type of capitalism that is in this country that perpetuates sexism and racism, I don't think that can come nonviolently."

From the news story.

I agree with MP that this woman needs years and years of very hard time, but I have an even better way to give it to her than working for FDNY.

Since what seems to drive the soft spot that nearly the entire spectrum of the left has for Islam these days is an admiration for the vaguely non-property-rights-based ideology supposedly found in Islamic "economics" and social ethics, let's let her conduct an experiment to see if she can convert them to her brand of scientific socialism, based as it claims to be on scientific materialism and the values of the European enlightenment, and its ideological offshoots like radical feminism, sexual libertarianism, environmentalism, gay rights and animal rights.

Put her on an deserted island with a large community of convicted Jihadists (same numbers of both sexes - equality of mean and women, after all), have her "educate" them and invite them to build a miniature "workers' paradise" and see what happens. Just like the Narodniks in pre-revolutionary Russia.

Would 7th century desert tribalism or "progress" win out? It could even be broadcast as a reality TV show, in which the audience gets to bet on how long before she's either wearing a burqa or carrying her head under her arm - courtesy of the women, most likely.

"I'm on the Right because the Right still basically stands up for liberal (in the original sense of the word) values.

Couldn't agree with you more, Zionist. I used to nearly always vote with a clear conscience for left of center parties even as I grew older I began to become more and more right of center. Not long after I left my teens I began to become a lot more interested in Christian social doctrine, which seemed to me to have a strong resemblance to some of the more sensible policies of the moderate Left, and a lot less in classic "socialism". Along this road I eventually came to think of myself as a "right wing social democrat", but I just can't stand where this soft Marxist (and not always so soft) approach is leading the left these days. We in Canada have a broader left than the U.S. does, so its even worse here.

Lynn Stewart should have been sentenced to 10 years in one of the following revolutionary
countries:

Algeria
Bangladesh
North Korea
Cuba
Laos
Libya
Mauretania
Sudan
Pakistan
Iran
Yemen
Syria

Perhaps China--as long as it's somewhere west of a line drawn from Lanzhou to Kunming--might also do.

I have a friend with a huge old oak tree in his yard that they used as a hanging tree long ago. I'm sure it could handle one more.

"Permit me to live out the rest of my life productively, lovingly, righteously."

Her living of life brings death.
Her productiveness is destructiveness.
Her love engenders hate.
Her righteousness is demonic.

Reap what you have sown.

"If you send her to prison, she's going to die. It's as simple as that."

I fail to see the downside of this.

To Lynne

It is a sin
to work with the devil.
You grow fat with his evil,
eaten within by his hate,
you are one of the near enemy,
and a harbinger of their fate.

Ah, let's not forget Mr Sattar:

"I am not a violent person," Sattar said. "I am a human being. I am an America. I am a Muslim who practices and believes strongly in his religion."

What a pip- a peaceful Muslim who believes strongly in his religion. Yeah, peaceful like the "peaceful 19" of 9/11. Didn't they believe strongly in their "religion" too?

Hopefully this man of peace will be in solitary,lest he contaminate other inmates with his strong religious beliefs.

I'm not surprised but am very disappointed at the slap on the wrist to Lynne Stewart. She has been an enemy to the U.S. since the sixties. She would probably sell her soul to the devil to go against her country. Maybe she did already.

Any one want to guess who appointed this judge???

None other than Slick Willy!!!

The legal system is high-class professional wrestling. The 28 months was a deal for one of their own.

The cancer of her soul will be her justice as she swims in the vomit of her last days.

Do not desicrate the ground of America,
that holds the brave men and women
who died to make us free,

Torch the residue of treason
Let her cinders turn to ashes
and fall to the earth of America
Fertilize the land that she hated
Purify the air that freedom lovers breath

Finally she will do some good.

(Sorry, Poetess, I am no match for you)

In her defense of Sheikh Omar she argued that issuing a fatwah to blow up the World Trade Center was merely part of the Sheikh's religious duties as a Muslim cleric. Personally, I can't think of anything more damning. Sheikh Omar got 65 years to life.

Her homepage has a big "Free Lynne" banner, and her lawyers talk about the injustice of her receiving *any* jail time because of her age and health, calling it a "death sentence". However, she's fine with other people being imprisoned, without due process or proceedural finding of guilt. Here are her words:

"I don't have any problem with Mao or Stalin or the Vietnamese leaders or certainly Fidel locking up people they see as dangerous. Because so often, dissidence has been used by the greater powers to undermine a people’s revolution."

Many of these people were sent to brutal gulags and "re-education camps" that constituted genuine death sentences. Che Guevara, Fidel's comrade, talked not only about the "Dictatorship of the Proletariat", but also the "Dictatorship of the Wall", meaning summary execution for anyone who was a perceived enemy. And of course we know with what tender mercies Jihadists treat their enemies.

She's damn lucky she went on trial here, and not in one of her beloved anti-Western utopias.

She certainly doesn't dress to impress but considering her contempt for the establishment, why would she? She's a hardcore feminist; her brilliant mind more than compensates for her biotic countenance.

Her androgynous mystique will definitely be an asset in prison.

"To rid ourselves of the entrenched, voracious type of capitalism that is in this country that perpetuates sexism and racism, I don't think that can come nonviolently."

Is this a joke? That's her excuse for betraying her own country? Yeah Spencer, you're right, this is indeed beyond parody.

So, let's see, the holy war not withstanding, the "Everything for the Cause" feminist, butch, femdom, "Down with Men" FemiNazi wants special treatment because of her bout with Breast Cancer...last year? At the end of Breast Cancer Month? Hmm.
Rise up Western World! Rise Up!
Better Dead than Mo Ham Med!

Anybody know anything about this judge Koeltl? Having just given a wrist slap to a Jihad war terrorist, one would think voters in NY, of all places, would rise up to impeach and remove his worthless ass.

* 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 ** 33:21 *

It's not just Lynn Stewart who is a victim, it's the Bill of Rights that's the victim...
--- pompous NYC lawyer

Unbelievable. Literally.

In addition to some hard time, how about some sort of work furlough helping women who were raped\slated for honor killings? Think that might knock some of the bats out of her belfry? We wouldn't look so sexist then, would we? Of course the traitor would be heavily supervised so she couldn't try anything.

Guilt and the realization you backed the wrong team can be wonderful weapons. If nothing else we could get some labor out of the troll. If my tax dollars house her I want something GOOD to show for it.

Support for Islamic fanatics and mass murderers by Communists [Bolsheviks, Soviet-oriented socialists] goes back at least to the early months of the Soviet regime in the former Russian Empire, in 1917. See link:
http://ziontruth.blogspot.com/2005/10/bolsheviks-for-jihad-genocide-stalins.html

However, Kaiser Wilhelm, the German emperor, had declared himself a Defender of Islam around 1900.

I agree with most of what August wrote, however, the ACLU --a hateful, contemptible body-- was not founded by Communists. It was founded during World War One by Quakers and socialists [not Communists] who opposed the war. The Bolsheviks had not yet taken over the Russian Empire. I welcome any corrections or additions to this account.

Now, to fully comprehend stewart's madness and absurdity, let's note that staunch, pious Muslims are not merely sexists, like most men [by the women's libbers' definition], but they are arch-sexists. They tend to be racist too [see Bernard Lewis' book on Race and Slavery in Islam; and Lewis' Semites and Anti-Semites]. Moreover, the main bankrollers of Islamic terrorism are the super-rich Saudis, although we wouldn't want to forget the Sultan of Brunei and Mahathir Muhammad, pm of Malaysia. The super rich Muslim oil potentates are also major holders of stock in Western capitalist corporations, even in Fox news, and major owners of valuable commercial real estate in Western countries [including stewart's own New York city]. The absurdity of her position is exponentially compounded when we note that the messages that she transmitted for sheik omar abdul-rahman led to deaths of people in Egypt, some of them tourists [if I recall rightly] and some of them native Egyptians, good 3rd Worlders all of them, hyper-deserving of lynn stewart's revolutionary sympathies as a loyal anti-imperialist. So how supporting Islamic mass murderers [euphemistically labelled "terrorists"] can help the 3RD WORLD or the WOMEN or the oppressed races is not at all clear to me. Indeed, what she has done has helped to cause immense suffering in 3rd World Egypt. Yes, she is mad. But August22 is wrong to take her opposition to "capitalism" & "racism" & "sexism" at face value. Meanwhile, it seems that "capitalist" George Soros' support for her represents a sickness on his part, going to prove that you don't have to be sane to make a lot of money.

Truly she is the poster child (she never grew up) for the fifth column, the enemy within which must be confronted and exposed.

The miniscule penalty delivered by a leftist toady is a travesty.

The comments here are great.

Zero G - Great photo! She looks like Michael Moore's mother after working a two day shift on the parking lot of a Turkish truckstop.

A good picture of Ms. Stewart.
Remember, she is an attorney.
She doesn't even make sure she doesn't have unsightly chin hair.

I see Zero-G already posted the pic, while I was fooling with signing in again.
Why can't the sign-in last all day? Or even 1 hour? Why not Typekey?


The Brief History of the ACLU’s Communist founding and Agenda.

The ACLU was founded on January 19, 1920. It grew out of a previous group, The National Civil Liberties Bureau which had grown out of the American Union Against Militarism, and a party that was held in New York City and attended by just about every radical from New York, such as Socialist Party notable Norman Thomas, future Communist Party chairman Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, and Soviet agent Agnes Smedley.
Roger Nash Baldwin was the founder and director of ACLU. At the time of the founding, he was deeply involved in the communist movement. In late 1935, he gave a speech that said his political goal was communism.

Not to worry: this b*tch will do something else that will land her behind bars sooner or later.

Or, maybe, one of her jihadist 'buddies' will rape and/or kill her--which is how jihadists typically treat non-Islamic women and (Ms. Stewart ought to know this, as she's spent enough time with these people).

xero G:And did you notice how UGLY her LIPSTICK looked?????

XeroG: Prime candidate for a burka then?

i would say don't bend over for the soap, lynne but by the looks of her i don't think she showers much...probably so her stench matches that of the killers she supports...

if soros comes to jail to visit her, they should lock him up too...

this misquided cow needs to spend time in saudi arabia, pakistan, where they can sick on the real evil people.she needs to see how women and minorities are treated, l think she will die of shock!

You took the wind out of my sails Zena. Its' striking how many people hate this country yet love islam, but won't defect to one of those hell holes. I feel sorry for her. She's a lost soul.

Carolyn2, I'm not sure but I believe multible sign-in is required because of the shut down several weeks ago caused by multiple postings from some Troll. I noticed that after JW/DW cam back on line my sign-in would "expire."

What they’re saying about Robert Spencer
“My comrade-in-arms, my pal, my buddy.”
Oriana Fallaci

“Robert Spencer incarnates intellectual courage when, all over the world, governments, intellectuals, churches, universities and media crawl under a hegemonic Universal Caliphate’s New Order. His achievement in the battle for the survival of free speech and dignity of man will remain as a fundamental monument to the love of, and the self-sacrifice for, liberty.”
Bat Ye’or

“Robert Spencer is indefatigable. He is keeping up the good fight long after many have already given up. I do not know what we would do without him. I appreciate all the intelligence and courage it takes to keep going despite the appeasement of the West.”
Ibn Warraq

“America's most informed, fearless, and compelling voice on modern jihadism.”
Andrew C. McCarthy, Senior Fellow at National Review Institute

“Robert Spencer is the leading voice of scholarship and reason in a world gone mad. If the West is to be saved, we will owe Robert Spencer an incalculable debt.”
Pamela Geller, Atlas Shrugs

“Over the years, we have become friends, and I have received his assistance on several pieces of legislation I proposed.”
Former Congressman Tom Tancredo

Raymond Ibrahim

Kathy Shaidle, Five Feet of Fury

Neal Boortz

“Robert Spencer is the Stephen King of Jihad.”
Chris Gaubatz, Muslim Mafia

“Armed with facts and fearlessness, Spencer stands up for Western civilization.”
Michelle Malkin

“Widely read in conservative foreign policy circles.”
New York Times

“Widely read in many quarters in Washington.”
Washington Post

“A canny operative who likely has the inside track on the State Department’s Middle East affairs desk should the tea party win the White House.”
New York Magazine

Karen Armstrong

Salon Magazine

“Robert Spencer is an Edward Said turned upside down.”
Stephen Suleyman Schwartz

“One of the nation's most notorious Islamophobes.”

Heidi Beirach, Southern Poverty Law Center

“Satanic ignoramus.”
Khaleel Mohammed

“The Likud anti-Christ.”
Dar al-Hayat newspaper (Saudi Arabia)
