Four lawyers! You'd think one would do.
The American nightmare occurred on 9/11/01.
Only one desired to speak and they have FOUR lawyers? Hmmmmmmm???
Expel these twinks ASAP...'zero tolerance"!
They could start by apologizing to Eunice Stone and for calling her a liar. I want to know where these three "doctors" in up. I certainly want to avoid having them take care of my medical needs if they're so stupid as to pull this and then lie about it.
A far more nobler aspiration than being a lying Arab smarta$$.
Thank goodness Eunice Stone had already been on FOXNews, thank goodness law enforcement had already judged her to be credible. These students must realize the public has spoken...the public believes Eunice Stone.
I would assume they are from (or constitute) the same law firm.
...then they stated they were joking...
...now it's a, "mistake?"
I saw one of these guys on TV and he was smarmy, arrogant, smug, condescending and belligerent.
He called the lady a liar in those words.
He was sopping up the attention with a big circle of media around him.
NEWSFACTOR.com - NEWSFACTOR NETWORK: "FBI TERRORISM TASK FORCE RAIDS ARAB WEB HOSTING FIRM" (ARTICLE NOTE: The firm is identified as InfoCom Corporation. ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Arab leaders held a news conference to protest the FBI's actions, calling it an "anti-Muslim witch hunt." They insisted the task force, which also included the Secret Service and the U.S. Customs Service, acted on little evidence, but rather on political pressure and anti-Arab stereotypes. "While Muslims understand the FBI's mission to protect American citizens, we are concerned that the civil liberties of InfoCom's owners and their many important clients were violated by this unexpected raid," the Arab group said in a statement.") by Tim McDonald (SEPTEMBER 7, 2001)
stepping back in time...AHRAM.org.eg - AL-AHRAM Published Weekly in Cairo, Egypt: "ADDRESSING 'THE NATION', TARGETING AMERICA Diaa Rashwan* analyses the content of the video-taped statements released by Osama Bin Laden, Suleiman Abu Gheith and Ayman El-Zawahri" (The October 11-17, 2001 Issue)
MIAMI.com - THE MIAMI HERALD: "TRIO STOPPED AFTER GEORGIA WOMAN'S TIP" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "'Just because of the way we look, the way we choose to live our lives, we're persecuted,'' said Hana Gheith, his sister. Ayman Gheith was born in Jordan. The other two men are of Iranian and Lebanese descent. ''I don't think it's fair. It's very sad in this time, in this day and age, there is still this kind of discrimination,'' Hana Gheith said.") (091402)
TRADITIONAL VALUES.org: "MUSLIM GROUP'S EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN MAY AID EXTREMISTS" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "CAIR, however, may not be the kind of organization that should be supported by moderate Muslim-Americans or by public libraries. Middle East expert Daniel Pipes ( http://www.danielpipes.org ) has published several exposes on CAIR during the past few years. The most recent was published in April. According to Pipes, CAIR has at least one individual associated with international terrorism on its board of directors. Siraj Wahhaj was named in 1995 by U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White as an unindicted co-conspirator in the attempt by Muslim terrorists to blow up New York monuments. Wahhaj served as a character witness on behalf of convicted Muslim cleric/terrorist Omar Abdel Rahman who masterminded the New York terrorist plot. CAIR has also criticized President Bush's closing down of the Holy Land Foundation, a front group for Hamas terrorists. In 1998, the chairman of CAIR gave a speech to a group of California Muslims and told them: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth."") (091302)
I agree. I can forgive a$$hole comments when one "owns up" to them. I think, today, we have too many paranoid people, but in this case, I think this woman did the right thing, especially if she heard what she says she heard. I believe her.
Agreed that if they frankly admitted they were trying to mess with people's minds because they feel intimidated that I would have believed that. That would have been a cautionary tale to others who thought that such a prank would have any positive reesults. But to stonewall, change stories, call her a racist and liar, complain about their treatments and such, just tells me that these guys should be expelled and fined Further, if anything happens to Eunice or her family members the feds better know exactly where these guys are and swoop them up.
