“2) If Jasser says he has known 3 of the Flying Imams for a decade, then why has he waited so long to expose them?”
The article says that he’s been exposing them for years.
Check keyword ‘Jasser’ in FR’s search for more. He’s had an ongoing public and private battle in Arizona against the Wahhabi/CAIR types there.
“If Jasser is intelligent enough to be able to see through the motives of CAIR, why is he not intelligent enough to see the motives of Muhammed through an historical look at the man?”
I’m taking a wild guess that he’s studied islam more than you have. He’s come to his own decisions based on his faith, and recognizes a need for Islam to go through a revisionist period. He’s spoken on this a number of times, including this article.
You obviously have not read my previous post, either...unfortunately you are proving to be true. Why are you attacking me?
I’ve been reading him for a couple of years now. I’m not saying that he’s not a good guy . He is. But I do think there are ways he could have gotten his message out to the mainstream. If I mentioned Middle East Forum to most people, they would be clueless. The problem is that President Bush relied on various members of CAIR and other similar organizations to set policy, as did Clinton before him. That reliance on the wrong individuals may be changing somewhat. I hope so.
How long, do you think, has Jasser truly considered reform in Islam? I could probably go back through some of his stuff and figure it out, but maybe you have that information close at hand? I remember reading something a couple of years ago that defended Islam, but didn’t really espouse making changes in it.
