When I heard the news about Cat Stevens being detained and deported, I thought it was odd. Mansoor Ijaz does an excellent job of showing why it is more than odd in “One way to alienate moderate Muslims: deport Cat” published in the Christian Science News Monitor.

This is a terrorist?
Facing 9/11
We haven’t posted anything in a long time. Oddly enough, the last post we posted said something like “we haven’t posted anything in a long time.” I’d rather not go into the details, other than to say the family medical challenges have continued. However, we don’t intend to stop publishing–we just took another break.
Here is a post that appears on “The Rude Pundit” that makes some interesting points about 9/11. Warning that the language is at least R-rated, but where it is used the bad language seems to fit. The basic idea: by declaring “war” on terrorism our administration gave Bin Laden a legitimacy he could never otherwise have achieved, and thus gave him far more aid than he could ever have demanded. Check it out–it’s an interesting read.
