Thank-you, CNN

Like many others, I rolled my eyes at the thought of CNN launching a show featuring former Governor of New York Eliot Spitzer and conservative-turned-moderate-enough-for-CNN Kathleen Parker. However, they might have done us a huge favor by broadcasting the views of Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary to an American audience.

Choudary puts the lie to the myths of Islamophobia. I can compliment Choudary, if for nothing else, for his honesty as he explains in this clip that he does support the imposition of shari'a law. It's actually refreshing to see him throw it out there without pretense.

Since Christiane Amanpour was not present to interrupt and make him look better, Choudary was captured saying, "They may say one thing to you in front of CNN. But I can assure you behind your backs, in every masjid [mosque] and every community center, they are standing with their Muslim brothers and sisters saying, We hope the Americans and British are pushed out of our countries, and we can implement the Sharia."

You mean to say that these folks actually LIE to CNN? Who would do such a thing?

This was too much even for a Democrat: Spitzer is either hamming it up or genuinely incredulous as he points out that Choudary should be arrested.

My question is why the British haven't expelled him and his followers from the U.K. Are they afraid to lance that boil and face the burning cars which have become a part of French life?

Watch the whole thing and see the real beliefs of Muslim radicals.
