JERUSALEM A top U.S. radio talk show host has become the subject of an Islamist Internet death threat, WND has learned.
Rusty Humphries, whose show is broadcast on over 250 stations through Talk Radio Network, was the target of the tirade, posted on a blog powered by Google entitled, "The Jew Report." Humphries is an outspoken critic of Islamic terrorism and a strong supporter of the U.S.-led war on terror.
The author of the online threat apparently confused Humphries for Rusty Shackleford, the pseudonym used by the proprietor of the popular My Pet JAWA Report website, which focuses on exposing online support of Islamic terrorism.
Alongside a dated picture of Humphries posing with commentator and star blogger Michelle Malkin, the threat begins: "Yes this Fat descusting (sic) pig you are looking at is the boss of the website Jawareport.com but their are many fat kafirs like him you might ask why are we talking about him here's why."
The blog claimed Muslims in Florida are being "harassed" because of Humphries, while his "work," seemingly as Shackleford, led to the raiding of mosques and police interrogations of Muslims.
Humphries immediately reported the threat to local and federal law enforcement agencies, which initiated investigations.
The talk host was taken aback that he could be confused for Shackleford, especially since he's interviewed Shackleford several times on his live, three-hour daily show.
"If I was going to have a fake identity, I'd come up with something a lot more creative than simply changing my last name," Humphries quipped.

The actual article title is “Islamic death threat targets U.S. radio host”.
Death threats! That’s almost as bad as being insulted, defamed and denied entry to the UK.
We’ve all been targeted by Islamic death threats, courtesy of Al Qaeda.
Anyone who denies that they are ALL a threat is living in fantasyland.
