Fearing for safety, Tarek Fatah, communications director of the Muslim Canadian Congress, has resigned, citing concerns for his safety and that of his family.
Who would be threatening him you wonder? The KKK? The B'Nai Brith? The JDL? Peta? The Vatican? Stephen Harper? Tony Soprano? The Atheist Jew?
Wrong on all counts. It was fellow "Canadian" Muslims who have threatened Mr. Fateh's life.
"I'm physically drained and fatigued and disappointed by how much leverage these extremists have," he said.
'Fatah said he has been assaulted both verbally and physically, including an incident in which he was attacked at an Islamic conference in Toronto by dozens of young Muslim men.
He also said that an associate informed him of a discussion she overheard in which young men were discussing how Fatah should be killed.
Fatah said he's reported the threats he's received since 2003 to Toronto police, who are investigating the allegations.'
What a bad bad Muslim he is:
Aside from advocating for gay and women's rights, Fatah has also vigorously opposed the adoption of Shariah law, the legal code of Islam based on the Qur'an.
Last July, Fatah also fought against granting a visa to controversial British Muslim cleric Sheik Riyadh ul Haq.

Max says at Israpundit: "This is the effect of Terrorism. They are already in Canada and destroying our society. It’s not enough to make investigations into a few death threats. Terrorists and terrorist supporters must be rooted out and purged. Support of terrorism and Muslim Fundamentalism in any form must be punished by severe laws. We need to change our immigration and multicultural policy. We need to purge the devils we have already taken in before we start to pay a higher price for this. We are starting to have the same syndrome as England. We cannot tolerate the intolerant. We cannot allow them to use our freedoms to destroy us. We are already paying the price for this.
This is the Lebanonization of Canada."
I couldn't agree more. The governments of the US and Canada don't have the guts, but I think it would be more than sane to not permit anymore new Muslims to live in Canada or the US. This is getting out of hand. The moderate Muslims don't even have a chance to become a voice. It is evident with what has transpired with Mr. Fatah.
On a side note, it looks like Mr. Fatah's last piece for MCC was quite a whine. I'm Canadian, I voted for the PC's. And Harper and Mackay, are doing a wonderful job of speaking for Canadians like me. Canadians who were born here. Canadians who take too kindly to being threatened because we exist.
By the way, how about learning how to spell Peter Mackay's name correctly. It makes the whining more affective.
Even a moderate Muslim aint perfect.
A great piece can be found at Combs Spouts Off called Naming the War Properly. Here is a paragraph from it:
"As was the case with the first three world wars, we are at war not with terror or any other particular tactic, but with an idea, or rather, a large set of ideas, most or all of which are inimical to our culture, and to the civilization that is an outgrowth of the Enlightenment. There is no win-win outcome to this war. There are, in the words of divorce courts, irreconcilable differences between the West and the Jihadis. There is, ultimately, not room enough on this planet for both ideologies, because theirs demands submission of all to it."
