Newsweek says it'a a "conspiracy theory" that CAIR is trying to spread jihad

I saw this article and my JAW DROPPED.

Did this reporter even READ Gaubatz's book???

Does this reporter even KNOW how to check facts???

Amazing.

To write for Newsweek and all the other leftist PC rags , is it a corporate requirement to be a numb skull?

Par for the course. NEWSWEEK is worthless.

Richard Nixon was an unindicted co-conspirator. Perhaps the august scholar Robert Spencer may try a new tactic to shame the already useless CAIR. It's like watching to mangy dogs bark at each other.

Newsweek has long since jumped the shark, going way beyond even the soft-peddling of Jihad by much of the MSM.

This, from 2007, advises readers that Muslims are "one of America's greatest strengths":

Their only real problem is "Islamophobic" Americans.

Here, from 2009, is Newsweek telling those concerned about Eurabia that there is nothing to worry about:

"Why Fears Of A Muslim Takeover Are All Wrong"

http://www.newsweek.com/id/206230

Also from 2009 is Fareed Zakaria's infamous cover story, "Learning to Live With Radical Islam"

The article is subtitled: "We don't have to accept the stoning of criminals. But it's time to stop treating all Islamists as potential terrorists."

http://www.newsweek.com/id/187093

At this point, it's not just "living with Islam", but "living with radical Islam". Go back to sleep, you Islamophobes—everything is juuuuuust fine...

What is an "unindicted" co-conspirator?

Here's a definition from Wikepedia -- maybe lawyers out there can comment.

An unindicted co-conspirator is a person or entity that is alleged in an indictment to have engaged in conspiracy, but who is not charged in the same indictment. Prosecutors choose to name persons as unindicted co-conspirators for a variety of reasons including grants of immunity, pragmatic considerations, and evidentiary concerns.

The United States Attorneys' Manual generally recommends against naming unindicted co-conspirators, although their use is not generally prohibited by law or policy.[1] Some commentators have raised due process concerns over the use of unindicted co-conspirators.[2] Although there have been few cases on the subject, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals addressed these concerns in United States v. Briggs.[3]

The term unindicted co-conspirator was familiarized in 1974 when then president Richard Nixon was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in indictments stemming from the Watergate Investigation.

The definition leaves more questions than it answers.

Who owns Newsweep? Who hired Fareed Zakaria?

Meanwhile, Fox is full of Tiger BS, I guess that's really important.

With all the dirt on CAIR that Chris Gaubatz provided the FBI last year, there should be plenty to turn that un-indicted co-conspirator into an indicted one. ; )

With a Muslim editor/columnist since 2000, it is obligatory for NW to regularly sing "Islam means peace" lullabies to put the Infidels back to sleep, whenever there's a danger of their waking up. Seems to have worked well, so far.

Always nice when the rags that are supposed to be keeping an eye on the government let us know that government duplicity is just a big 'conspiracy theory'.

Kind of like stories of the government training Nicaraguan terrorists to kill civilians and peasants, or the government covertly trading with Iran. Silly stuff. Except for that whole Iran-contra scandal. Oops!

Does CAIR ever give it a rest.

To say that something is a "conspiracy" implies there is some secrecy involved in whatever the group is planning. Yet CAIR's advocacy of sharia law in North America is a matter of public record. There is no conspiracy to this aspect of their activities. Their efforts to establish sharia in North America must, from an Islamic perspective, literally be regarded as "struggle" or jihad, since effort expended by Muslims for the cause of Islam is considered a righteous jihad. In addition, CAIR's propaganda campaign against public critics of Islam is itself evidence of their jihads of tongue and pen. (Why do they spend so much time going after Islam critics, while spending no time on reducing tendencies toward intolerant and militant views within Muslim communities in North America?). CAIR shares the goal of Al-Qaeda et al., which is to establish Islamic sharia law and rule. CAIR and Al-Qaeda are part of the same larger project.

"Kernel of Truth? CAIR has tried to place interns on Capitol Hill, but as it points out, that's standard practice for advocacy groups of all types and allegiances. There's no proof of sinister motives or an effort to encourage international jihad." --from the Newsweek article, emphasis added.

Note that the author of this Newsweek article cites CAIR itself as providing the kernel of truth.

Don't the good people over at CAIR already have a reputation for stating they want America to be "transformed" into an Islamic society where sharia rules?

What part of that can't the good people over at Newsweek understand?

Well, it is OK for Newsweek to present their view and their facts and arguments, but what I object to is that they try to go against others who also present their views, facts, arguments. People like them are forever on the brakes, denigrating true whistle-blowers, wishing us to avoid the subject, like a hot potatoe.

The topic of Democracy & Islam is hugely important for mankinds future. And there are people who want to dismiss, stop the discussion based on the idea that talking about it is mostly unnecessary fear-spreading, hate-inspiring.

But, I would plead for as many people as possible being reasonably to highly knowledgeable about both Democracy and Islam. And for discussing the matter long enough and good enough. Why not work it out properly and extensively, enabling a majority of people, responsible people, to make a really well-informed choice?

And you know what; I think that that really would replace fear and hate with understanding, respect and some love.

And I think that the ex-Muslims, the Democracy-minded people are often just as or even more informed about both Democracy and Islam than Muslims and their defenders-on-the-ground-of-not-spreading-fear & hate. Who in my opinion effectively shut themselves off on much important relevant information in order to "behave hush-hush".

Be fair; if Newsweek didn't exist, half the country's incompetent pc journalists would be unemployed.

If Jihad succeeds in USA, all our achievements in science, technology, medicine, social norms, constitution, education ... you name it - will be destroyed and buried never to be found again. This is what they did to the Egyptian civilization. We are discovering its greatness through archaelogy. Islam had destroyed and buried it, ostensibly for ever. I do not know where the muslim apologists among us get the idea that islam is harmless. Quite the contrary, it is harmful in the most horribly imaginable way.

Is anyone really surprised at Newsweek? Its just another rag whose reporters are all bleeding heart liberals. Radical muslims love these guys. These fools, along with the ACLU, believe everything they are told, instead of doing research. CAIR has been exposed,, but it doesnt fit into their liberal minds so its called "Islamaphobia". These radicals and their liberal "friends" are using our own system and rights AGAINST us to further their cause. Wake up people, these radicals will behead you on national tv without the blink of an eye, but hey..isnt that their right?

The chief editor at Newsweek is a muslim.
As a muslim it is his duty to engage in taquiyya and kitman to throw smart non-muslim people off the scent of true motives of islam.
And he is doing just that.
He is a good muslim.
His imam and his mosque-brothers must be happy.

Speaking of unindicted co-conspirators, a favorite retort I hear sometimes goes like this: "A good prosecutor could get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich." You might want to prepare yourself to respond to this bon mot in over-the-board conversation.
