In 2002-2003, Augusta National Golf Club was under heavy attack from feminists Martha Burk, USA Today columnist Christine Brennan, and other sagging former bra-burners. The Augusta National people saw me on CNN, sticking up for their right–as a private club–to admit whoever they wanted, whether or not that included any women. They liked my in-your-face style and funny lines. And, so, they got in touch with me and began referring TV bookers from CBS to ESPN to MSNBC and so on. I was quoted in several golf magazines, including Golf Digest, and I debated Burk several times . . . always kicking her ass. (Some highlights are on the video below). As a reward and because they needed me to respond to Burk’s planned protest at the Masters in April 2003, the Augusta people flew me–all expenses paid–to Georgia and gave me the rare Masters All-Access pass around the club that only members get (it’s supposed to be the most coveted ticket in all of sports). But the weather was unusually cold, it snowed two days in a row, and since I’m not the biggest golf fan, it was one of the most boring weeks of my life, but I took a bunch of matchboxes as souvenirs. (The highlight was meeting Fred Couples–he’s cool and super nice). And, so, today, I’m a little bit sad that Augusta National caved to the feminists and admitted two chicks–Condoleezza Rice a/k/a Condi Clueless and Darla Moore.

Don’t kid yourself: the club did this because of pressure, not because they wanted to. In addition to the club members’ private property rights and rights to association (or non-association), I’ve always believed that men need to have some place where they can just be men . . . without worrying what they say or do because women are around. It’s why men have man caves, go to bars, and have guys’ nights out. Everyone needs their space and alone time with their own gender, especially men. That was part of Augusta National’s raison d’etre. But after a decade of cajoling and screaming by ugly whining chicks, they let two women in. Augusta National leader Billy Paine always said the club members would admit women on their own timetable, but the fact that they did at all–no matter whose timetable it was, means the bra burners won. And the men caved . . . kind of like a guy ends up caving to his wife or girlfriend after he can no longer take the nagging. Read the rest of this entry »

Next thing you know, I’ll be arrested for eating matzoh ball soup. But, first, you bacon-eaters are the hate crime artists in New York:

An end of Ramadan celebration was tainted yesterday when guests discovered three packages of uncooked bacon in a Staten Island park in what police are saying is a possible bias incident.

The revelers gathered in New Dorp Beach Park for the Eid-ul-Fitr when the pork product was discovered near the football field at 7:30 a.m., police said.

“On a website associated with this celebration was some derogatory comments,” said Police Commissioner Ray Kelly in a press conference today.

“This has been determined to be a bias event,” Kelly said.

The statements were made by a person who identified himself as “007 Midland.”

“We are attempting to locate the individual who made the comments on the web site,” Kelly said.

This is absurd. A website in the United States of America cannot say anything truthful about Islam without Ray Kelly saying it’s a “bias event”? And then they investigate bacon in a park? Huh? What the heck happened to the First Amendment?

We Jews invented the prohibition on bacon, which Muslims stole from our religion (their religion is mostly shoplifted from Judaism and Christianity). But we don’t have any problem with everyone else consuming it to their heart’s content. Anything less would be un-American. The intolerance of Islam and its encroachment on American freedoms is growing because we allow it . . . and because organizations like the NYPD allow themselves to become bacon detectives. Pathetic. I wonder if my friend A. H. Killa knows he’s committed a hate crime for making this funny rap about bacon during Ramadan. Might offend the Muslims.

Dogs may soon also be a hate crime in America, because they offend Muslims. Already are a hate crime in Canada, where someone was arrested for walking his dog in the park near an anti-Semitic Muslim protest for “Al-Quds Day” (Al-Quds is the Muslim wishful thinking name for Jerusalem). The dog offended them. From Blazing Cat Fur: Read the rest of this entry »

Back in February, I told you about Candice Cohen-Ahnine, a French Jewish woman who stupidly had a sexual affair with a Saudi Muslim Prince. Predictably, the Saudi Prince, Sattam bin Nasser bin Khaled al-Saud, treated Cohen-Ahnine like yesterday’s trash and kidnapped the daughter they had together. Even though she won custody of her daughter in a French court, it was irrelevant, as her daughter was in the Prince’s possession in Saudi Arabia, never to be seen again. And now Ms. Cohen-Ahnine is dead (from mysterious circumstances) and no longer a problem for Prince Sattam. And this is despite the fact that she stupidly converted to Islam and married him under Islamic law, believing she would be accepted. Ça, c’est vraiment stupide, [That’s really stupid], woman!

Last week, Cohen-Ahnine was found dead, after she “jumped” from her fourth story apartment. No one believes this woman, who was fighting for her child and wrote a book about it, was ready to give up her life. This “suicide” was clearly a murder designed to look otherwise. Maybe the Prince was tired of her publicity campaign against him. Maybe he wanted to travel freely in Europe and couldn’t because of the judgment against him and Interpol (supposed to be) looking out for his arrival there. It sure looks like Al-Prince-Not-So-Charming and/or his Islamo-cronies had something to do with it. A lot to do with it.

As I’ve always said, this is what happens in interfaith relationships with Muslims–the non-Muslim woman is chattel and has no rights. I mean, we’ve heard enough stories, seen enough movies (and not just “Not Without My Daughter: The Betty Mahmoody Story”) to know this is the case. Anyone having such a relationship is living in fantasyland and in for a rude awakening. In this case, Candice Cohen-Ahnine got the rudest awakening of them all. This is Islam.

A French-Jewish mother in a high-profile custody battle with a Saudi prince has died after falling from a fourth-storey apartment, amid suspicions of foul play. Read the rest of this entry »

As I’ve noted several times on this site, the Islamic world doesn’t view the mentally disabled as human. In fact, Muslims regard mentally disabled fellow Muslims as damaged goods to be disposed of like an abortion. And, so, I am neither shocked nor surprised that a Pakistani girl with Down’s Syndrome may face a death sentence in a blasphemy trial. After all, Muslims in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority constantly send their mentally disabled with suicide bombs to blow themselves and Israeli soldiers up. Muslims in Iraq did this with a mentally disabled Muslim woman whom they tried to use as a bomb against American soldiers and other Iraqis. And I noted that Palestinian Muslims who wanted to get rid of their Down’s Syndrome boy sent him into a restricted area where they knew he’d be shot up by Israeli soldiers (the soldiers saved him from his horrid family). My own former Saudi Muslim neighbors (I’ll tell you about them another time) locked their empty apartment and left their Down’s Syndrome child to roam the parking lot helplessly (and she couldn’t speak English or communicate). So, this story is just consistent with how they treat those who are handicapped, either physically or mentally. That this girl in Pakistan is a Christian makes her doubly subhuman in their minds.

Greater Barbaria: How Muslims Treat The Mentally Disabled

A Christian girl with Down’s Syndrome has been arrested on blasphemy charges in Pakistan, accused of burning pages inscribed with verses from the Koran, police and activists said on Sunday.

Police arrested Rimsha, who is recognized by a single name, on Thursday after she was reported holding in public burnt pages which had Islamic text and Koranic verses on them, a police official told AFP.

A conviction for blasphemy is punishable by death in Pakistan. . . . Read the rest of this entry »

A number of media outlets are buzzing about a Politico report that the FBI investigated a year-old, privately-funded Republican Congressional trip to Israel, during which a number of Congressmen and their staffers went swimming in the Sea of Galilee and also consumed alcohol. One of the Congressmen, Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kansas), went skinny-dipping in the lake. Drinking and swimming during a Congressional junket–wow, that nevah evah happens. Yes, this idiot, Yoder, showed poor judgment to take off all of his clothes and possibly expose his unit and rear to the families of others on the beach nearby. He’s a moron, no doubt. But does this really need to literally become a “federal case”? If only the FBI were as eager to investigate leads on Islamic terrorism as they are this temporary boys-will-be-boys indiscretion, then we might be safer than we were before 9/11 (we aren’t).

If a Democrat went skinny-dipping on a trip to, say, Lebanon, I wouldn’t want the FBI involved (but I would wanna know why they and Republicans like Darrell Issa keep visiting Hezbollah–something the FBI never investigates). The men and women of Famous But Incompetent should have better things to do. Sadly, they apparently think they don’t because, after all, Nidal Malik Hasan shooting up 13 lives at Fort Hood is a “workplace violence” incident unworthy of their time, whereas a guy from Kansas skinny dipping in Israel must go through an FBI proctology exam. Apparently, FBI agents were looking at photos, and you almost wonder if they were asking for, um, “measurements” (and Yoder should hope there aren’t photos of him naked, less because of public embarrassment and more because of this ridiculous FBI “investigation”). J. Edgar Hoover’s ghost is laughing. So are Al-Qaeda and other terrorist and organized crime outfits. They know the FBI has its “priorities.”

The FBI looked into whether any inappropriate behavior occurred, but the interviews do not appear to have resulted in any formal allegations of wrongdoing. . . .

Some of those present took photographs of the group right after the late-night swim, sources said.

After the lawmakers and staff returned to the United States, FBI agents questioned congressional staff about the trip, specifically about what happened in Tiberias.

If there’s anything that’s disturbing here, it isn’t the brief skinny dipping, it’s this–typical of what you find from AIPAC–the American Israel Public Affairs Committe, which bills itself as “the pro-Israel lobby” (but is really the lobby of liberal American Jews that pushes crap down Israel’s throat), which funded the trip and always seems to think it must be the pro-Muslim lobby, too. As in every trip in which they take public officials, reporters, and others, AIPAC always makes sure to have its traveling party meet with and hear the “side” of the Palestinians. Salam Fayyad is an open Jew-hater and supporter of Islamic terrorism and–no surprise–he made AIPAC’s cut as a favored speaker on the trip. As I’ve noted in the past, AIPAC constantly takes the position of Palestinians as being morally equivalent with Israel and not too long ago, financed a lobbyist for Yasser Arafat. None of this is new, as AIPAC has long pimped Israel into disasters like the Oslo Accord, the Wye Accord, the Gaza pull-out, etc., and it worked against various state legislators who wanted tough bills to boycott and sanction Iran. But it continues to be disgusting.

Patrick Dorton, a spokesman for AIEF, defended the group’s trip to Israel, saying it was substantive and rigorous.

“As part of the trip, and after of day of meetings including with the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority . . . .” Dorton said in an emailed statement. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s August, where movie studios send their non-straight-to-video duds to die a quick death in the movie pet cemetery. And true to that I didn’t really like any of the new movies out in theaters, this weekend.

* “Sparkle“: Even though I didn’t care for this that much, it’s the best of the new movies out today. The movie studio invited me to the Detroit premiere of this to meet and interview star Jordin Sparks (and Urethra, er . . . Aretha Franklin, who isn’t even in the movie). But I took a pass because I just didn’t care. What was I gonna ask her? The movie was filmed in Detroit and funded in part by the Michigan Film Tax Credit subsidy boondoggle, and it’s a less interesting rip-off of the far superior “Dream Girls” (which I did like–read my review). The best thing I can say about this movie is that the clothes, sets, and other period details are fabulous and beautiful. It’s so high-styled. And yet the script is just dull. And some period things I think the movie gets wrong. An Albino Black guy is shown in a tuxedo at a nightclub with cornrows. Did Blacks wear cornrows like that in the early ’60s, circa “Mad Men” to a fancy club like that? I doubt it. One character is shown trying to give CPR to her dead lover. Did they teach kids CPR in those days? I don’t think so. But I could be wrong. The movie has been repeatedly hyped with the claim, “It was going to be Whitney Houston’s comeback vehicle.” But I don’t see it. Houston looks heavy and haggard and has very few line and scenes. And her voice is hoarse throughout. If anyone shines in the movie, it’s Sparks, who does what she can with a milquetoast script and a faint plot. The movie is a remake of the 1976 film of the same name, starring then then-unknown Irene Cara.

The story: three Detroit sisters–two by one man and the other by another–are the daughters of a reformed drunk played by “Houston. They don’t know who their dads are, but they are all beautiful and can sing. Soon all three of them are in a singing group with an eager, hungry guy as their manager. But they must sneak out at night to perform because their mother, Houston, is one of those too-strict religious Christian archetypes Hollywood always imposes on us. All three of them conflict with their mother, but the prettiest one, “Sister,” leaves to marry a successful Black comedian who makes his money with racist jokes against Blacks that he performs on TV to White audiences. Sister is abused by the man and uses drugs, and everything becomes a mess. Read the rest of this entry »

DebbieSchlussel.com has learned that Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents at Metro Detroit Airport are outraged that they are being strongly “encouraged” to attend an event pushing Islam, Arabism, and special treatment of Arab Muslim airline passengers down their throats. They say that it’s implied that if they do not attend Monday’s session run by the pan-Muslim, openly anti-Israel Arab American National Museum in Dearbornistan, it will affect their work conditions and chances for promotions on the job. View the invitation to the event because YOU are paying for it. The event was dreamed up by the agents’ extremist Palestinian Muslim supervisor at the airport, who they say gives special treatment to suspicious Muslim passengers arriving at DTW (Detroit Metro Airport) from the Middle East. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents at the airport have told me this is an ongoing problem, especially because Royal Jordanian flights often contain passengers who are terror suspects seeking entry, and new daily flights from Dubai began recently. The CBP agents say the event is being called a “Family Heritage Month” event, but they say that there has never been a cultural awareness event for any other religion or ethnicity. Just this one for Arabs that is a cover for pimping Islam. The CBP inspectors do not want to attend this event, but they feel tremendous pressure to do so to protect their jobs.

DebbieSchlussel.com has also learned that the persons who dreamed up the event and are pressuring employees to attend is CBP Supervisory Chief Fadia Odeh, a Palestinian Muslim, and a CBP officer named Hammad, also a Palestinian Muslim (who is believed to be a relative of “former” Islamic terrorist Imad Hamad, a Hezbollah supporter and suspected HAMAS fundraiser with whom CBP officials have regular meetings). Agents have repeatedly complained that Odeh has sped Muslim alien passengers arriving at DTW through without adequate inspections. Odeh, as the day shift watch commander in charge of passenger operations, is third from the top at Customs and Border Protection at Metro Detroit Airport and wields significant power. The CBP inspectors tell me that their Muslim and minority bosses, including Ms. Odeh, insist they give special treatment to Muslim passengers and be extra nice to them, especially now that it is Ramadan. Agents say the CBP Diversity and Inclusion Committee that planned the event hasn’t had other such events pimping any other ethnic group or religion.

While the seminar is being billed as an event about “Arabs,” Islam is a big part of the event’s agenda, as are “the do’s [sic] and don’ts” of how to treat Arabs. The Arab American National Museum (funded by your taxes), as I’ve written previously, heavily promotes Islam on the backs of Christian Arabs, and it’s chock full of temporary and permanent anti-Israel exhibits. The woman leading the event, Janice Freij, and her close relative, Maha Freij, are top executives at Muslim-dominated Arab welfare agency, ACCESS (Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services), which was raided by the FBI for engaging in Medicaid fraud–flying pregnant Muslim aliens to America, giving them phony Social Security numbers, and helping them commit Medicaid fraud for birthright citizenship for their babies. (The museum is a project of ACCESS.) Transcripts of interviews with Customs and Border Protections agents who questioned these women at the airport showed that the aliens’ entire trips were planned by ACCESS and ACCESS lawyered them up when they were caught lying to CBP officials about why they were here. ACCESS also lobbies for and provides cover and services to Muslim illegal aliens who fly into Detroit Metro and try to stay here, contrary to the wishes of CBP inspectors. So, it’s interesting that CBP officials would now welcome officials from this organization to “teach” them about anything. It’s like the FBI feting and partying with the Unabomber. And that’s not to mention ACCESS’ financing of the anti-Israel divestment conference at the University of Michigan. Clearly CBP and its parent agency, the Department of Homeland Security, don’t have a problem with that anti-Israel, anti-Semitic hate. Here is the agenda of the event:

On August 20, 2012 Port 3807 will be hosting an event for Family Heritage Month. We have decided to focus on an ethnic group that is not officially recognized as of yet. We would like to cordially invite you to attend this event; all are welcome! The celebration will commence at 1500 hours in the port conference room. The guest speaker will be Janice Freij. Ms. Freij is the Curator of Education at the Arab American National Museum. This event promises to be informative and fun!!!

Here are some the topics that will be covered during the presentation.

• Overview of the Arab world (explain what makes an Arab country Arab and what the differences are between Arab world and Middle East)
• Immigration to the U.S. (when Arabs came over and why)
• Demographics (where in the U.S. Arabs live)
• Diversity of Arab Americans (came at different times for different reasons, physical characteristics vary, practice different religions, etc) [DS: This is where the anti-Israel stuff will come in, as it does in the museum. “The evil Jews stole our land and made us go to America!” That’s a running theme in the museum.]
• Cultural characteristics (importance of family, hospitality)
• Cultural sensitivity (do’s [sic] and don’ts when dealing with Arabs)
• Islam (basic tenets of the faith, the hijab)
• Debkeh (brief dance demo)

We will be serving dessert and beverages please support the Diversity and Inclusion Committee by bringing a dessert to pass.

*** UPDATE, Sept 2, 2012: Suzanne Barr, ICE Chief of Staff, Resigns After Firestorm Started by Schlussel Story – Buh-Bye! ***

*** UPDATE, August 21, 2012: EXCLUSIVE: Explicit DHS/ICE Lawsuit Sexual Harassment Affidavits; More Harassment of Men @ Obama’s Homeland Security ***

Soon, I will be posting some exclusive updates to the Homeland Security/ICE/Suzy Barr scandal story I broke on this site. But for now, I must address something about which many readers have contacted me. They know what’s up–and so do I–about a certain ego-maniacal thief. Last night, as I was running on the treadmill at Powerhouse Gym, I was listening to the Sylvester song, “Do Ya Wanna Funk?” on my iPod. Then, I watched as plagiarist Michelle “I Am a Woman of Color” Malkin appeared on the gym TV screen with fellow plagiarist Sean Hannity and “Funked” me over for the zillionth time, with Fraudkin ripping off the details only I reported here on the story I broke about New York ICE SAIC Jim Hayes’ employment discrimination lawsuit against Homeland Security Chief Janet Napolitano. Plagiarism and rip-offs are Fraudkin’s style, and they have been ever since she first contacted me in a creepy, aggressive, excessively-“All About Eve” way, years ago.

If you saw her faux-indignant ranting, last night, on Vannity’s FOX News show, you’ll note–as many readers did in e-mails to me–that every single talking point was ripped verbatim from this website, and was reported nowhere else. I’m the only one who reported that Janet Napolitano has an intimate, lesbian relationship with Dora Schriro, the woman who was suddenly inserted at the top of Homeland Security’s immigration policy because of with whom she was sleeping. I’m the only one who reported Schriro’s and serial sexual harasser Suzanne “Stripper Pole” Barr’s absolute lack of law enforcement experience (Barr graduated from ASU’s law school just six years ago). And that’s why Fraudkin read and lifted the info from this site, which she regularly reads. Yet, she still got the story wrong, which is the hallmark of plagiarists. They steal the details but aren’t familiar with the story and get it wrong. Malkin said that the ICE official who filed the suit is a “former” ICE official. Um, no, moron, he’s the sitting Special Agent in Charge of ICE for New York, which is why the case is such a big deal. He’s risking his job and career future by filing it, as the SAIC of probably the second biggest ICE office (next to Los Angeles’s ICE office) in the country. Any former ICE employee can file such a suit and it won’t necessarily mean much more than diddly squat. But Malkin doesn’t do her homework. She just cribs it from others. Her best selling book on Obama administration, for example, is a hodge podge of the real investigative journalism of others. Shoddy imitation is her sincerest form of robbery.

Let me tell you a little about the unbalanced, egomaniacal Fraudkin. When I first met Michelle Malkin in 1999, it was through extremely creepy, overly solicitous “All About Eve” e-mails and overtures she sent to me. I found it weird, annoying, and so saccharine NutraSweet fake, it creeped me out, big-time. Think Jennifer Jason Leigh in “Single White Female” (except with her it is “I Am a Woman of Color Female”). I didn’t know the woman, didn’t ask to hear from her, and yet she was repeatedly sending me e-mails inviting me to stay at her Germantown, Maryland home where she then lived. Um, no thanks. I made the mistake of meeting her for coffee once in Washington, DC, and her fake, uber-fawning demeanor made me ill. She repeatedly e-mailed me that she read my columns religiously, tried to imitate my style, but that her editors at Creators Syndicate, where they heavily edit and then distribute her columns, wouldn’t let her. Get your own style, witch. At the time, we both had columns running on the Jewish World Review site, I was doing a lot of national television appearances, and she couldn’t get arrested. She was like an ant urinating on the sidewalk. No one noticed . . . or cared. No one read her bland, boring crap, spoonfed to her by her peckerless guru hubby, Jesse (the Mr. Mom who tells her what to say and do and reportedly ghostwrites for her). Soon, I got e-mails from Malkin about my FOX News appearances (she got no TV gigs at the time and wasn’t a FOX News Contributor as she is now), with her giving me critiques I didn’t ask for and didn’t want.

One of them was during the Chandra Levy scandal in the news, after I’d written a column about the Congressman for whom I once worked, Donald E. “Buzz” Lukens, who’d had affairs with interns and prostitutes when I worked for him. I did my third appearance on the “O’Reilly Factor” because of it and spoke of my experience (I did not sleep with the boss, FYI). Like clockwork, that night, Malkin sent me one of her creepy, suck-up e-mails that reeked of jealousy and bizarre obsession. The next week, Malkin’s syndicated column was comprised of a made-up story she suddenly “remembered” about how she had been propositioned by a Congressman (whom she refused to name because the dude didn’t exist) to live with him during the summer and that the Congressman’s wife then called her. The story was absurd and obviously completely fabricated. Uh, how’d they get your number, Michelle? Malkin claimed the Congressman got her number from her college, which she claimed gave it out, trying to find her housing. Her story was so fraudulent and obviously phony, it didn’t add up to anyone with a functioning brain. Everyone with a modicum of common sense knew she MADE. IT. UP. And it was neither the first nor the last time that she’d do that. But it worked. The fraudulent column coupled with her “I Am a Woman of Color” act got her a meeting at FOX News, where her husband negotiated her deal. And she went on Bryan Lamb’s C-SPAN interview show, where she refused to name the fictional Congressman who allegedly found her name and dorm phone number at random on a list sent out by her college and, sight unseen, wanted her to live with him for the summer (after which his make-believe wife also found the number and called her, too). If you believe that story, I have some land in the Sahara Desert to sell you. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m not that into Elvis, but today is the 35th anniversary of the death of Elvis Aron Presley, back in 1977. Yes, the guy had a lot of talent and sang some good songs. But, ultimately, he was a bloated drug addict who left a daughter without a dad after dying on a toilet from years of drug abuse and overeating. Still, in his professional life, he’s a an American icon and his legend, we are told, is the epitome of cool. As a proud Jewish-American, my main interest in Elvis, aside from his place in American pop culture, is that he symbolizes the Jewish heritage of America, our contribution to America even before it gained independence, and the fact that many gentile Americans today descend from Jews who were here on American soil long ago. Yes, as I’ve noted on this site before, Elvis was Jewish. Judaism is determined by matrilineal descent, and Elvis’ great-grandmother, Martha Tackett, was Jewish, as was her daughter, and her daughter’s daughter, who was Elvis mother, Gladys Love Smith.

Elvis Wearing Jewish “Chai” (“Life”) Necklace)

No, Elvis didn’t publicly self-identify as a Jew . . . well, not exactly. But he knew he was Jewish. It’s just that his parents told him to keep it quiet. It wouldn’t be good for business. But his Jewish identity is indicated by several stark cues in his life. He regularly wore a “Chai” necklace. Chai is the Hebrew word for life and is good luck because the Hebrew letters stand for the number 18, which is a Jewish good luck number. And when he first buried his mother, he had a Jewish Star (Star of David) put on her gravestone. He also donated lots of money to Jewish charities and carried a yarmulke–the Jewish religious skullcap. Not that this is any indication of being Jewish, but Elvis also got a nose job (for the record, neither I nor anyone in my immediate family has had one, despite rumors to the contrary) and regularly hung out with his rabbi neighbor when he was growing up in Memphis. While he was outwardly a practicing Christian, “The King” was clearly proud of his heritage in Judaism.

I’m reposting, below, an excerpt of a Jewish Week article on Elvis’ Jewish heritage, which was reposted on Jeff Swope’s my space page. The original, to which I used to link, is no longer online.

Elvis Presley has Jewish Heritage through direct descent from the Jewess Martha Tacket. Read the rest of this entry »

**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATES #1 & #2 ****

Late last night, it was as if I saw a ghost. I came across a breaking news story about an Iraqi Muslim immigrant I had briefly helped and who is now one of five Iraqi Muslim immigrant suspects in a brutal gang rape of a 53-year-old woman in Colorado. More info here. I hope the allegations of his involvement are just that. One report says, “Two of the suspects were arrested for sexual assault and accessory to a crime, while the other three were arrested for just accessory.” The seasoned police detective investigating the case says it is one of the most violent rapes he’s ever seen, with blood on the walls and massive internal injuries to the victim, as a result of blunt force. The story sends chills up and down my spine.

Jasim Mohammed Hassin Ramadon Now . . .

Jasim Ramadon Then – 8 Years Ago on Oprah . . .

Eight years ago, I was very touched when I read a front-page Wall Street Journal story about a brave Iraqi boy who turned in his own Islamic terrorist father to U.S. troops in Iraq. At age 12 or 13, he showed tremendous courage and helped save American soldiers’ lives, begging them to arrest him. When they did, he turned in not only his own father, but 40 Islamic terrorists and their plots to kill American men. He also refused his father’s demand that he kill Americans. Because of his actions, his mother–who urged him to help the American troops–was murdered by terrorists. The story said that the soldiers in his unit promised him they would protect him, even after they were sent home from Iraq. They promised to bring him to the United States to shield him from a certain death sentence. But they needed help to do it. I contacted the soldier who headed the unit and offered my pro bono legal services to the extent I could offer them (as I am not licensed to practice law in Colorado and couldn’t do any work there). Although I’ve never written about it at length here, the fact that I did some legal work was public, well-known by many third parties, and not confidential or privileged. And the soldiers involved encouraged me to speak with then-FOX News reporter Heather Nauert for a report she did on the boy.
