There could be more to this yet.

Since he is obviously being punished for political expediency, using the excuse of his making the Mohammed video, the lie to Americans is that he is being punished for probation violation, but the lie to Muslims is that he is being punished for insulting Islam.

So the way someone could run with this is to take the lie to Muslims at face value, but then tell Muslims that “Muslims are outraged(tm) over his light punishment.”

“He is getting less than a year for *insulting the prophet*(tm)!”

“The Americans think insulting Islam(tm) is a petty offense!”

etc.

This would defeat the political expediency of tossing him in the jug for a year, and refocus things on his being imprisoned for his speech, defeating the other lie as well.

no, America isn't half black and half white. the Obots are a distinct minority and easily identified by appearance alone (97% of the time).

You won't see armed Obot gangs taking over your street. Not that they might not try but there simply not enough of them.

They just said on “the five” a trumped up charge that he used a different name was probation violation.

Why doesn’t obama just send a drone to kill this guy. He seems to be fond of that method.

Remember the judge in this case ruled that he was a public danger because he had a nearly million dollar Fatwa on his head. This made him a flight risk and general public risk.

In other words when ever Islam creates a Fatwa on someone in the US rather then protecting this guy this judge set the precedence to jail him. Sharia law enforced by our own judges.

That is why it is important to contact our reps and remind them that their duty is to us, the Constitution and not to John Boehner and Hussein.

Or O could have his Pakistani pals throw him in their jail for 33 years like the doc who fingered bin Laden for us.

Where was this guy’s due process? Sentenced to a year? Did he have an attorney?

Something like that. I’d be surprised if he gets out alive, frankly.

This is his “punishment for having offended Islam,” as Obama promised, and delivered on the day right after Obama’s reelection. But one year won’t be enough.
