Terrorist Frontgroup Whines About Being Called Terrorist Frontgroup

This is just too funny.

Once they're out of the grievance-mongering business, perhaps they can do some standup at whatever federal penitentiary they're residing in.

CAIR Cites Counterterrorism Blog in HLF Legal Filing
In the case of United States versus Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF), et al, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) clearly doesn't like it when the Counterterrorism Blog and the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) is presenting the news on this subject.

In an Amicus Curiae brief by CAIR to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, CAIR complains about the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) postings on the Counterterrorism Blog with news in regards to the HLF case and CAIR.

In CAIR's Amicus Curiae brief, CAIR apparently believes that it can protect its first amendment rights by silencing the Counterterrorism Blog and other organizations reporting the news. Unfortunately, it does not understand that the first amendment to the U.S. Constitution applies to all Americans, even those that CAIR does not agree with or does not like.

In CAIR's Amicus Curiae brief, on page 36, CAIR states that "the list of unindicted coconspirators has spread and gained notoriety through non-mainstream media, as well, including various 'anti-terrorism' weblogs. These weblogs are often extremely biased and inaccurate in their reporting, leading to even more severe damage to the reputation of the unindicted coconspirators. "
Follow the PDF at the above link to p. 37 as well. They snivel about how being labeled unindicted co-conspirators is having an economic impact on them.

Well, duh!
