One of my favorite cartoonists, the brilliant Johnny Hart, died yesterday–Holy Saturday. He was funny, fierce, and faithful:
Cartoonist Johnny Hart, whose award-winning “B.C.” comic strip appeared in more than 1,300 newspapers worldwide, died Saturday while working at his home in Endicott. He was 76.
“He had a stroke,” Hart’s wife, Bobby, said Sunday. “He died at [...]

House GOP strikes back at the litigious imams, reports the Washington Times in a web-only exclusive. Audrey Hudson writes:
House Republicans today surprised Democrats with a procedural vote to protect public-transportation passengers from being sued if they report suspicious activity — the first step by lawmakers to protect “John Doe” airline travelers already targeted in a [...]

Baron Bodissey issues a call to action:
Most of our readers are aware of Rep. John Conyers’ efforts to pass a congressional resolution against the desecration of the Koran. One of the highest priorities of Muslim interest groups in the United States is to get this legislation and similar initiatives passed. They are following multiple strategies [...]

My prediction: The Council on American-Islamic Relations will be hounding this American soldier and milking this incident for every last “Islamophobia”-mongering dime they can raise (via the AJC and hat tip: Laura Mansfield):
Spc. Craig Perkins’ uniform made him a target in Baghdad – and, he believes, again in an apartment complex near Clarkston.
Perkins, who returned [...]

Is our troops, according to the New York Times.

Item one: Frank Gaffney sounds the alarm again about jihadi-friendly figures in the conservative movement.
Item two: ABC reports, “Accused Terrorist Is Big GOP Donor,” while the National Republican Congressional Committee refuses to say what it will do with his $15,250 in donations.
Here, let me help: Give. It. Back. Duh.

“Obsession” is, of course, a documentary about radical Islam. You may have caught it on Fox News or Hot Air.
Students:
Michael Abdurakhmanov, president of Pace Hillel, said two deans warned that showing the documentary film would implicate club members as suspects in two hate crimes involving the desecration of the Koran at the university’s lower-Manhattan campus [...]

Andy McCarthy rightly excoriates the dhimmis in the Bush administration for pandering to CAIR:
On a weekend when the Bush administration achieved a new CAIR-friendly low, a prominent Democrat, following the lead of other prominent Democrats, distanced herself very publicly from the unsavory Council on American-Islamic Relations.
The Transportation Security Administration is the executive agency created after [...]

Talal “Ted” Ali Chammout sure has a funny way of showing his “love” of our country – via Fresno Bee (hat tip: reader Steve):
His attorney said Friday that Talal “Ted” Ali Chammout is a U.S. citizen who loves America, adores his children and is a respectable mini-mart owner in Porterville.

Shakedown target
Audrey Hudson at the Washington Times has the latest on the grievance-mongering flying imams and their attempted extortion:
A group of Muslim imams is seeking an out-of-court settlement with US Airways, saying they should not have been removed from a Minnesota-to-Phoenix flight last month and were not behaving suspiciously.
Five of the six Islamic religious leaders [...]

Well, well. Audrey Hudson at the Washington Times reports that an internal investigation by US Airways, plus two other probes, so far conclude there was no wrongdoing by the crew in its treatment of the six flying imams:
Three parallel investigations into the removal of six imams from a US Airways flight last month have so [...]

Bow down

In between breathless condemnations of the Bush administration for stifling its free speech, endless court filings demanding classified and sensitive information from the military and intelligence agencies, and self-pitying media industry confabs bemoaning their hemorrhaging circulations (with the exception of the New York Post), my colleagues in the American media don’t have much to time [...]

Yes, I’ve followed the case of the six praying imams removed from a US Airways flight at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport and questioned by police for several hours before being released.
As sure as the rooster crows, CAIR is screaming and the Muslim leaders of the Religion of Perpetual Outrage are calling for a boycott.
Robert Spencer [...]

Remember the cross-shaped beams pulled from the wreckage at the World Trade Center on 9/11?

The symbol of faith and hope that inspired rescue workers and 9/11 families is being moved from the site.
The 20-foot-tall artifact was discovered in the smoking ruins two weeks after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and became a symbol for [...]

Thanks to all the readers who have e-mailed their translations. Spread these far and wide. E-mail them to your friends. Post them on Egyptian online forums. [...]

For. Crying. Out. Loud:

Police have agreed to consult a panel of Muslim leaders before mounting counter-terrorist raids or arrests. Members of the panel will offer their assessment of whether information police have on a suspect is too flimsy and will also consider the consequences on [...]

The above phrase in Arabic is “lan astaslem.” It means “I will not surrender/I will not submit.” (Thanks to Rusty, Laura, and Daveed for translation help.) This is the last line of my 9/11 column and it’s my 9/11 anniversary message to the convert-or-die jihadists.
And yes, I’ve got t-shirts in the works as a [...]

A few arrests have been made; the BBC reports “no-one has claimed responsibility but suspicion will immediately turn to Sudan’s hardline Islamic groups.”
What did Taha do that cost him his life? [...]

Orders for conversion were decreed under all the early Islamic dynasties—Umayyads, Abbasids, Fatimids, and Mamluks. Additional extensive examples of forced conversion were recorded under both Seljuk [...]

Profiled: Better safe than sorry
I have two words for the Wal-Mart clerk who notified cops in Michigan after three young Arab men purchased 80 cell phones at 1:00am on August 11 in cash:
