This afternoon I addressed the Middle East Forum in New York City. As [1] she was last year, Pamela of Atlas Shrugs [2] was there, with her trusty video camera -- much appreciated, Pamela.

Raymond Ibrahim of Jihad Watch and the Middle East Forum was there:

Bob and Ray

Why is it that everyone I get my picture taken with is so much taller than I am? I am going to start carrying around a packing crate to stand on. Anyway, Raymond is much taller than I am, but we do have one thing in common:

[3] Raymond Ibrahim, the latest client of the "Islamophobia cash cow industry."

[4] Robert Spencer is "the principal leader…in the new academic field of Islam-bashing."

Tell you what, fellas: cut out the blowing stuff up, cut out the threats, cut out the genocidal bloodlust, and voila! No more "Islamophobia," no more "Islam-bashing." It'll work like a charm!
