I guess we are supposed to get used to the crazy warmongering rhetoric from those who want to see Iran destroyed.

It has been repeated (not nearly enough) that the "propaganda against Iran today is similar to Iraq" and Americans will not fall for it again. But why do I sense that this is not enough to stop the saber-rattling? (Maybe because despite NIE reports that say otherwise, 85% of Americans believe Iran is developing nukes. Furthermore, the American public is relatively supportive of military action against Iran).

We also hear that Obama's administration doesn't want war and is counseling Israel against it. But why do I sense that whether we want to or not we may end up in war anyway? (Maybe because history tells us that sometimes whether you want war or not you will get it!)

We also hear that all this talk about "war" may be a blessing in disguise because who will start a war by eliminating their "surprise" tactic from the arsenal? And of course when Israel attacks it doesn't tell anyone it just kills you. Surprisingly this gives me no comfort. (Maybe because Netanyahu has told his cabinet to put a lid on the "chitchat" about attacking Iran.)

I was unfamiliar with Eric Allen Bell until recently when he published an article on Daily Kos whose main thesis claimed that Loonwatch.com was a terrorist supporting site, "Loonwatch.com and Radical Islam".

I have been a follower of Loonwatch since first learning about it over two years ago. To me it provides a necessary correction to the over abundance of hate and bigotry directed at Muslims on the web, and it does so in the most entertaining, engaging and analytical manner that I have witnessed. So imagine my surprise when I read an article claiming Loonwatch was a front for radical Islam!

After reading the article I realized it was nothing but smears, and that loonwatch was being targeted by the same gutter sniping conspiracies that they have been exposing.

Robert "Obama may be a Muslim" Spencer, director of JihadWatch, a David Horowitz funded project, founder of the Orwellian organization SIOA (Stop the Islamization of America), and one of the leaders in the Right-wing (along with Pamela Geller) opposing the Cordoba Islamic Center near Ground Zero is suffering from a serious malady.

He seems to be stuck on the fact that no one wants to debate him...because...well...he's an all around bigot.

DailyKos diarist, Daisy Cutter, broke a story about John Joseph Jay, Board member in Stop the Islamization of America (SIOA), the organization spear-heading opposition to the Islamic cultural center that is to be built two blocks away from Ground Zero.

In the story he reveals and exposes John Joseph Jay's genocidal statements against liberals and Muslims, such as "kill all your liberal relatives and Muslims." The story was picked up by Loonwatch, and then some Dutch websites and newspapers and also the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).

Daniel Pipes, was once nominated by George W. Bush to head the board of the Institute of Peace, which didn't quite work out as his long standing anti-Muslim views came to light. Views that included him making statements like,

Western European societies are unprepared for the massive immigration of brown-skinned peoples cooking strange foods and maintaining different standards of hygiene...All immigrants bring exotic customs and attitudes, but Muslim customs are more troublesome than most. (National Review, 11/19/90)

However, he didn't allow that to stop him, he has made a comfortable living with such David Horowitz funded projects as the Middle East Forum, and Campus Watch. He runs a popular personal blog and also pontificates regularly on Jerusalem Post, where you can usually find him whitewashing and apologizing for Israeli policy.

I am a new contributor to DailyKos, after my first post I went on vacation; away from the keyboard. I didn't know my first post was going to create such a firestorm. My first post was about LoonWatch, a site that tracks and exposes anti-Muslim wackos (i.e. loons). It seems some of the anti-Muslims were hurt by the fact that a DailyKos contributor would describe them for what they are; full of hate.

Robert Spencer, surmised from my diary that there was a Leftist-Islamic Supremacist alliance afoot working against Western Civilization. Is he referring to LoonWatch as Islamic Supremacist? DailyKos readers should parse through the site as it has been nothing but consistent in adhering to its goal of exposing Islamophobes and make up their own mind.

The anti-Muslim blogosphere is a cesspool of some of the most vile hatred and misinformation on the internet. The anti-Muslims cover a wide spectrum though most can be found slithering in the Right-Wing. They range from academics such as Daniel Pipes, self-declared scholars like Robert Spencer and his JihadWatch, to open racists such as Debbie Schlussel, Pamela Geller and the blog Gates of Vienna.
