An update to this story from the New York Times, with thanks to MB:
A New Jersey man has been charged with conspiring to help the terrorist group Hezbollah by allowing people to obtain satellite broadcasts of a Hezbollah television station, federal prosecutors said yesterday. The man, Saleh Elahwal, 53, of Matawan, N.J., was charged in an 11-count indictment unsealed yesterday in Federal District Court. The indictment also charged another man, Javed Iqbal of Staten Island, who was arrested in August. The indictment charges the men with helping people receive broadcasts of Al Manar, which features programming that promotes Hezbollah's positions, prosecutors said. Messages left for the men's lawyers were not returned yesterday. Mr. Iqbal's supporters have said he was exercising free speech.
free speech --yes Im sure it wasnt hate speech?
I wonder how much free speech there is in the middle east for us to speak? (I mean without getting killed)
If they want to watch Hezbollah TV so bad , maybe they go to Lebanon and watch all they want. perhaps they should be given a one way ticket? .
Ah yes, freedom of religion, freedom of speech. They all come here for that. And yet they want to take all this away from us with some of that old time sharia from the beloved but oppressive ummah.
GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE ALREADY!!!!!!
A Muslim exercising free speech? Right. I thought they wanted to do away with it when they were seething after the muhammed Cartoons.
