#ProudSavage Mona Eltahawy Defends Jihad Massacres of Innocent Civilians
Excerpted from ATLAS SHRUGS: Mona Eltahawy sprayed our AFDI pro-freedom ad with spray paint because she objected to the word “savages” being used of Islamic jihadists who murder Israeli civilians and celebrate their murders by passing out candy. Eltahawy describes herself as a “liberal Muslim,” and everyone assumes that that means that she is worlds from the Muslims who commit such savagery, and only “Islamophobes” would consider them to be in the same camp. But now Eltahawy has retained Jewicidal leftist lawyer Stanley Cohen, who represents the Hamas savages, as her attorney in the criminal case against her for destroying my ad.
Six degrees of separation? This is no degree of separation. Eltahawy hates that I called the jihadis “savages” and then retains the savages’ lawyer. Cohen says: “If I don’t support the politics of political clients, I don’t take the case.” So Eltahawy is a “liberal Muslim” who is outraged that I called jihadi “savages,” and she has a lawyer who supports jihad terror against innocent Israeli civilians, the bloody murder of the Fogel family, the mass murders of Israeli civilians in buses and restaurants, etc.
Lawyer for Mona Eltahawy, an Egyptian-American writer busted for spray-painting pro-Israel subway ad, calls action free speech Janon Fisher and Pete Donahue, New York Daily News, September 26
A lawyer for an Egyptian-American columnist charged with spray-painting over a pro-Israel subway ad used an odd hypothetical example to argue his client was merely exercising her right to free speech.
“My client decided to take a stand based on principle,” Stanley Cohen said of Mona Eltahawy, who was arraigned on misdemeanor charges, including criminal mischief, in Manhattan Wednesday. The ad she defaced implies Muslims are savages.
“I wonder how New Yorkers would react to a poster with an oven that said, ‘Not enough Jews,’ ” Cohen reasoned.
Cohen “reasoned”? More like “Cohen viciously propagandized.” My ad doesn’t call for killing anyone. It doesn’t justify violence, it denounces violence. It never mentions Islam or Muslims. For Cohen to make this invidious comparison shows what he is all about.
But his true colors were abundantly clear already. Cohen has made other vile comparisons before, invoking the Holocaust to argue for giving jihad terrorists a break. He also attended the Al-Quds International Forum in Istanbul, where Hamas and Hizballah were also present, and speakers demanded that Jerusalem be seized from Israel by force. And here is more from Discover the Networks:
In his office today, Cohen displays a picture of himself alongside the late Sheik Ahmed Yassin, former spiritual leader of the terrorist group Hamas. In Cohen’s view, Hamas is an organization composed of freedom fighters and martyrs who nobly give their lives in the pursuit of liberty and justice.
