What does Johnny Taliban have to do with this?

Yes, he is a muslim, and yes, he fought against America. But it has nothing to do with the cult of Black Islam, which is its own peculiar breed of Black Nationalism.

The fact that Colin Powell is black, or Thomas Sowell, or Walter Williams, or anyone else is not material, as we are not discussing black men in general.

I'm afraid I don't understand what your point is here...

Johnny Taliban was no different than this guy. I'm not sure the NOI has anything to do with this case ---if this guy waits until he's in Iraq before he starts attacking Americans, his gripe may have nothing to do with his race. I didn't see any evidence that the way he attacked had any black supremacy motives. For all we know those he meant to kill were also black.
