My Neighbor, the Hamas Leader
(PJ Media) Patrick Poole - In 2006, I wrote about discovering that an internationally known Hamas cleric was living in my hometown of Hilliard, Ohio. The Columbus Dispatch attacked me as a racist and a bigot after I had identified Salah Sultan's rabidly anti-Jewish remarks and his calls for violent jihad. Two weeks after the Dispatch article appeared defending Sultan as a well-respected Islamic scholar and local interfaith leader, he appeared on Al-Risala TV where he claimed that the 9/11 attacks were a U.S. government plot to victimize Muslims. He appeared last August on Al-Jazeera issuing a fatwa authorizing the assassination of any Israeli in Egypt.
