NYC Cabbie Who Runs Anti-American Islamic Web Site Mocks GI Deaths, Calls for Shia Law In US
Fox News ^ | 7 April 2008 | Fox News

Posted on 04/07/2008 7:39:43 AM PDT by batter

A New York City cabbie who operates an extremist Islamic anti-American Web site that features violent images — including mocking the deaths of GIs in Iraq — says he’s doing the country a service by “exposing the truth.”

Yousef al-Khattab, who runs RevolutionMuslim.com from his home in Queens, told FOX News that he also wants the U.S. to embrace Islam and Sharia Law, which prohibits alcohol and can include stoning to death or severe flogging for pre-marital sex and adultery.

On any given day, log on to al-Khattab's site and a host of startling images appear:

— The Statue of Liberty, with an ax blade cutting through her side;

— Video mocking the beheading of American journalist Daniel Pearl, entitled "Daniel Pearl I am Happy Your Dead :) ";

— Video of a puppet show lampooning U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq;

— The latest speech from Sheikh Abdullah Faisal, an extremist Muslim cleric convicted in the UK and later deported for soliciting the murder of non-Muslims.

...Formerly known as Joseph Cohen, al-Khattab is an American-born Jew who converted to Islam after attending an Orthodox Rabbinical school, which he later described as a “racist cult.”

Seems like there's some severe mental issues there.

The Muslim Student Association at Columbia University in the wake of the Danish Mohammed cartoons declared that the right to free speech/press is not absolute.

Wonder what they would say about this.

I wonder if he makes women wear a hijab when they get in his cab? If he’s serious about his religious beliefs, I think he should carry a rental hijab...you know, charge $1 extra if you didn’t bring your own.

He should be charged with treason and at the very least tossed out of the country. And I bet this is far from an isolated incident.

All NYC cabs by law must display the driver's name and photo in the passenger compartment. I take cabs every day, and always check the name.

I have had 5 different guys named Mohammed Ali....

The peeing would be OK, as they revel in having this collection of odors about themselves, but as for the drunkenness, you would probably get stoned for that (literally).

Alcohol (in ANY form) is loathed and despised by Muslims everywhere, except to the corrupt top layer, as there are strong objections to its consumption. Somewhere in the scattered and poorly indexed rantings of the Prophet, is the admonition to “let not one drop of alcohol pass these lips”. These crafty Islamic elders dip one finger in the vessel in which the alcoholic potion is contained, lift out the finger, and let one drop fall off the fingertip, thus satisfying the letter of the law. They may readily gulp down the rest without fear of retaliation from Allah.

Shar’ia law is such a perversion of common sense, you might think it had been developed by a bunch of ACLU legal experts.

FBI is probably onto him. The DOJ is sourced at the article link and also includes the following statement:

Under the law FBI spokesman Richard Kolko said it is difficult to bring criminal charges against the operators of Web sites like RevolutionMuslim.com unless specific threats are made against an individual or individuals.

Oh, and predictably, the guy is a TRUTHER!

This is why the FBI, CIA, and NSA are completely frauds. They listen in and monitor everything, and won’t even bring a case against a guy in America with this kind of crap on his website? This isn’t a 1st Amendment issue where the federal government is trying to silence actual critism of it, it’s a guy defacing troops lost in battle among other things. Maybe this is just frustration speaking, but the War on Terror is a complete and total joke as long as it’s fought with a politically correct sword.

I wonder if the poor primitive little dumbasses are aware that the human body naturally produces alcohol? Maybe if they knew they're inherently "impure" as a result, we'd see mass suicides to placate allah, their giant invisible f(r)iend in the sky!

The FBI, CIA and NSA - wisely for a constitutional republic - operate under civilian oversight.

There is nothing fraudulent about them.

What are fraudulent are the claims to patriotism of their civilian overseers - like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

It is amusing that many - including many FReepers - criticize the PATRIOT Act has being fascist and repressive, while Youssef al-Khattab is able to skate on the bleeding edge of the First Amendment without being arrested.

of course he’ll be supporting Obama, no second thoughts on that

One thing for sure he won’t be wanting a republican as he knows repub;licans will protect us and not run away like a lib dem would
Infact Obama would probably invite him to the white house with the rest of the radical islamic groups, black panthers, nation of islam, black power groups and the far left

Well, if you think the Patriot Act (sec 804) is just for terrorists, you’ve got another thing coming. They use it to crack down on potheads and small time crap, yet turn a blind eye to a guy like this. 9/11 was the result of beurocrasy and blowback, and our response to it was amplified versions of both. But hey, I shouldn’t critisize the religion of peace while we bring democracy to them. </s>

I’d prefer due process, but the FBI appears to be right on this. Without a specific threat, he can spout his garbage all he wants. Hopefully, the FBI is keeping close tabs on him and ready to pounce when he crosses the line.

Two questions:

(1) Why do you think violent crime in NYC went into freefall in the mid 90s?

(2) Do you really believe that the smartest move by law enforcement is to automatically arrest Joey Cohen, instead of taking a deeper approach?

1. I’m sure NAzi Germany and the Soviet Union were “safe” places also. Ever hear the phrase “at least the train runs on time?”

So your bizarre answer to my simple question is that Nuremberg in 1938 and New York City in 2008 are basically indistinguishable?

A record application of Godwin's Law.

2. Who the hell is Joey Cohen?

So, in other words, you didn't even bother to read the article you are pontificating about.

Sorry chief, but I don’t trust such broad powers with a massive central government.

OK, hetman. Which powers are those, specifically?
