Jibril Hough, who is presented as a victim in the Charlotte Observer piece attacking radio host Jeff Katz, which I discussed here, has an interesting background. Charles at LGF notes:
In October 2003, LGF had a post that featured Jibril Hough of the IPPA, after he wrote an editorial for the Charlotte Observer claiming that California was discovered by Muslims long before Columbus.
The web site of the IPPA at the time contained the following “press release” (which no longer seems to be there) blaming “Jews” for the 9/11 attacks:
But the biased western media would not cover this story, yet they also neglected to report that 4000 Jews employed at the World Trade Center were absent at WTC on 9/11. Nor did they report on the thousands who saw WTC Building Seven fall without a plane hitting it.
Everyday as more and more independent investigations are done, the evidence is proving that the September 11th may have been some great orchestration that caught our great nation totally unaware. And we the Muslims are left to believe the words of our president, which he later tried to change, that this is a “crusade, and you are either with them or with us.”
Both Islam and Christianity are the victims of this devious plot and all Americans must join together to help prevent evil ones from succeeding.
Three and a half years later, Hough is trying to shut down the free speech of radio hosts who blow the whistle on Islamists””and The Observer reports his claims of victimhood and insult without a single word about his history or true beliefs.
