The Terrorist Scarf... Why Dunkin Donut has a ... hole?

Did Dunkin' Donuts Buckle to Anti-Arab Fear Mongering!

By Eric L. Hinton. Date Posted: May 29, 2008
 
 

Every man, woman or child who wears a keffiyeh, a traditional Arab scarf often worn by Arab men, is apparently a terrorist.

 

At least, that's what conservative pundit Michelle Malkin would have you believe. That Malkin espouses this inane view is hardly surprising. Cut from the same cloth as her self-professed idol Ann Coulter, Malkin has defended the practice of racial profiling, has railed against undocumented immigrants and wrote a book defending the forced internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.

Where Alaa Al Aswany Is Writing From

Published: April 27, 2008

One evening last fall I joined a small crowd in a dusty room off busy Qasr-Al-Nil street in Cairo, facing a banner that read, “Welcome to the Cultural Salon of Dr. Alaa Al Aswany.” Many of those seated around me seemed to be simple celebrity spotters, there to see in the flesh the biggest-selling novelist in Arabic, Al Aswany, who is also an increasingly bold critic of President Hosni Mubarak’s regime, More =========================================================================================

The World according to Hillary...

Iran has the right to exist as long as it doesn't attack Israel... 

In response to a question on what she would do if the Islamic republic were to attack US ally Israel, Clinton told ABC News: "I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran. "In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them."

Blowback from the GOP's holy war

A new movie

Once, not long ago, a small Egyptian Police band arrived in Israel. They came to play at an initiation ceremony but, due to bureaucracy, bad luck, or for whatever reason,  they were left stranded at the airport. They tried to manage on their own, only to find themselves in a desolate, almost forgotten, small Israeli town,  somewhere in the heart of the desert. A lost band in a lost town.  Not many people remember this. It wasn’t that important. More

The FBI Falafel Watchlist

According to the article: The FBI sifted through customer data collected by San Francisco-area grocery stores in 2005 and 2006, hoping that sales records of Middle Eastern food would lead to Iranian terrorists. The idea was that a spike in, say, falafel sales, combined with other data, would lead to Iranian secret agents in the south San Francisco-San Jose area. The brainchild of top FBI counterterrorism officials Phil Mudd and Willie T. Hulon, according to well-informed sources, the project didn’t last long. It was torpedoed by the head of the FBI’s criminal investigations division, Michael A. Mason, who argued that putting somebody on a terrorist list for what they ate was ridiculous — and possibly illegal. More

Young Poet

Zarqa Nawaz and
FUNdamentalist Films

Her hijab (head scarf) is firmly in place, her slender frame encased in an ankle length skirt and a full-sleeved top. One is tempted to cast this mother of four as a "typical" Muslim woman. But listening to her, or viewing her films makes one realize that she is all about breaking stereotypes.

This 34-year-old filmmaker and journalist who describes herself as a Canadian Muslim has acquired a cult status with her films, which examine and demolish stereotypes associated with Muslims as terrorists, wife abusers and religious extremists. And that too with loads of wit. The name of her production company "FUNdamentalist Films" reflects her satirical bent of mind, and this streak is evident in her film trilogy - 'BBQ Muslims', 'Death Threat' and her first feature 'Real Terrorists Don't Belly Dance'

Conservatives Dominate The Airwaves


HOW BAD IS IT: According to the
new report, in the spring of 2007, 91 percent of the political talk radio

programming on the stations owned by the top five commercial station owners was conservative, and only

9 percent was progressive. Ninety-two percent of these stations (236 stations out of 257)

do not broadcast a single minute of progressive talk radio programming.
