A year ago this month, our columnist was booted off the air for claiming that "Islam is a terrorist organization." Was the punishment justified?
One year ago this month, I was fired from my talk radio job by ABC/Disney for saying on the air and in these pages that "Islam is a terrorist organization."
My argument was very simple. Any organization that allows terrorists to operate freely in its name; whose ideology is, rightly or wrongly, used to justify and promote terrorism; and whose membership includes, according to every international poll, hundreds of millions of devotees who support suicide bombing that organization has a unique problem with terrorism.
That's what I said. ABC ordered me to apologize for it. They insisted I perform community service as a form of penance for it. I told them I would never apologize for telling the truth, and they fired me.
One year later, I'm back on the air and I haven't changed a bit.
The problem is, neither has Islam.

...I guess my mantra is "listen", but certainly "verify" what the facts truly are. And that means investigating both sides.
...Otherwise, we're nothing more than sheep.
the terror came from the attorney general.....Janet Reno...

Yeah and let's give credit where credits due.The person ordered that slaughter was none other then Janet Reno !!!
Too bad he didn't say "Bush is Hitler". All he would have to do is "clarify" his remark.
Janet Reno and Wesley Clark..
When he was fired last year, his home station was WMAL in Washington, DC. Yesterday, Fred Grandy and Andy Parks discussed an incident in a KY classroom where a teacher burned two small US flags to demonstrate political/free speech. Fredy Grandy took up for the teacher, saying he had the right to do that and not suffer any consequences from the school board. I sent them an email stating - one - that it always seems to be some sort of desecration of American or Christian values where people demonstrate their freedom of speech. And - two - I did not notice Fred Grandy's defense of Michael Graham at the time of his firing for his right to free speech.
Does Disney have a Muslim Day at the theme parks? How much time do they need to make sure they are Judenrein?
What did one Islamic mother say to the other upon comparing pictures of their kids?
They blow up so fast.
I do not think that the people in Waco were terrorizing anyone. Yes, they were teaching lies, but terrorizing?
I do not think so. Who?
And how far we have fallen!
Waco had lots of terrorists. The govt goons...........
No the Davidians weren't terrorist. Mad as march hares yes. Terrorists no.
I lsten to him daily on WTKK in Boston. Michael Graham rocks.
Other Christians would be screaming and condemning the action at lightening speed.
True!!
And there's the problem. Islam is not an organization.
