FWIW, I'm an enthusiastic fan of Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and have been for
about a decade and a half.
Author Jeff Robbins keeps talking about Ali being plagued by 'some on
the left', a phrase that he uses verbatim three times, yet he doesn't
name even a single one of these shadowy personages.
Gosh, innuendo much, Mr. Robbins?
I have no idea who's correct in her war of words with CAIR. I actually
don't think it particularly matters. If they're just doing public
relations, that's protected First Amendment speech, and violates no law.
If they're taking illegal actions like sending support to Hamas as some
alleged back a decade ago, then prosecution should settle the matter.
(Federal prosecutors made that charge in 2007 but filed no charges at
all, so evidently they had no case.)
I see that this article, appearing in 'observer.com' -- that's
the rag owned by Trump's son-in-law, right? -- refers to this abortive
no-action action by Federal prosecutors but fails to mention that this
was nine years ago and that the Feds decided to do absolutely nothing.
