UPDATE 7:46AM: I just made enough lucky guesses on the pictures to get back into the account. Thanks for your kind messages.

My ace tech wizard, and the man responsible for the site's sharp redesign last year, Charles Nolan, has fixed things so that Jihad Watch posts go up automatically on my Facebook page, and considerable numbers of people read them only there, and contact me there as well.

So this is a note to those of you who are Facebook Jihad Watch readers, and who may have sent me a message there that has gone unanswered: I can't get into my Facebook account. Last night I got in from Sweden, where I was invited by the pro-freedom Sweden Democratic Party to speak at the political festival Almedalen 2010. (It was there that I [1] picked up some handy Islamophobia pills -- take two, and the Twin Towers didn't go down, Aqsa Parvez didn't get strangled to death by her father and brother, and the Muslim Brotherhood has no plan of "eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within.")

I tried to access Facebook from Sweden, but got the notice that as I was logging in from an unfamiliar location -- a hotel in Sweden -- I would have to answer some questions to verify my identity. The questions, however, consisted solely of identifying photos of various of my Facebook "friends," of whom I have nearly 5,000 and most of whom I have never met, since they are not personal friends but Jihad Watch readers. Accordingly, I failed the test, repeatedly, and am locked out of my account.

Please note that this is not a content or censorship issue. I am not blocked or banned or anything of the sort. I'm just locked out of Facebook by a blind security procedure, and I can't figure out how to fix the problem. If anyone has any idea, or a contact at Facebook I could ask about this (I can't find one), please email me at director[at]jihadwatch.org. Also, if you have tried to contact me on Facebook and I haven't answered, email me at the same address -- although I beg your indulgence, as I get over 1,000 emails daily.

And in the meantime, Facebook Jihad Watchers, please read the site at www.jihadwatch.org.
