That's probably Nakoula
Basseley Nakoula to the right, the man who says he served as
"logistics manager" behind The Innocence of Muslims, the
short trailer/movie/whatever that some folks still believe is the
reason that various American citizens, soliders, diplomats,
embassies, and consulates have been attacked throughout the Middle
East over the past week.
[ to watch the 13 minute video, which most recently served
up an anti-Mitt Romney ad for me before running!]
He's being helped into a car by Los Angeles Country sheriffs.
This is from early Saturday morning when, as the
writes, he was "taken in for a voluntary
interview with probation officials and has not been arrested or
detained." And there's this:
On Friday, U.S. courts spokeswoman Karen Redmond said the Office
of Probation in the Central District of California was reviewing
whether Nakoula [a.k.a. Sam Bacile], who has been convicted on bank
fraud charges, violated terms of his probation in relation to the
video and its uploading onto the Internet.
He had been ordered not to own or use devices with access to the
Internet without approval from his probation officer -– and any
approved computers were to be used for work only. "Defendant shall
not access a computer for any other purpose," the terms read.
Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit
WHY BARACK OBAMA SHOULD RESIGN. Just for the record, this is
what it looked like for a man who made a film that made the Obama
Administration uncomfortable.
When taking office, the President does not swear to create jobs.
He does not swear to “grow the economy.” He does not swear to
institute “fairness.” The only oath the President takes is this
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully
execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to
the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the
Constitution of the United States.
By sending — literally — brownshirted enforcers to engage in —
literally — a midnight knock at the door of a man for the non-crime
of embarrassing the President of the United States and his
administration, President Obama violated that oath. You can try to
pretty this up (It’s just about possible probation
violations!&Sure.), or make excuses or draw
distinctions, but that’s what’s happened. It is a betrayal of his
duties as President, and a disgrace.
Reynolds doesn't seriously think Obama will resign, of course,
but he argues that "Obama’s behavior — and that of his enablers in
the press — has laid down a marker for those who are paying
attention." Which is to say, the focus on the film and the larger
notion of free expression as the real problem is pretty goddman
Recall, for instance, Obama's spokesman &the recent deadly attacks on
American people and property throughout the Muslim world are a
response not to United States policy, not to, obviously, the
Administration, not the to the American people. It is in response
to a video, a film, that we have judged to be reprehensible
and&disgusting.
administration also leaned on Google, owner of YouTube, to pull the
video (Google has thankfully and rightly , although it has reportedly blocked it in
Egypt and other countries). Mitt Romney, whose fumbled response to
the attacks in Egypt and Libya last week bizarrely became a bigger
story than the attacks themselves, has also castigated the
As Matt Welch has noted, it shouldn't be difficult for the
president of the United States - and the press more generally - to
conjure up a specifically American response to situations like
As important - maybe more important, really - there is dwindling
reason to think that The Innocence of Muslims movie or trailer or
whatever it is should be accorded any major role in the recent
attacks. As , extremist Arabs
and Muslims can always conjure up a pretext for whatever they want
to do and there are strong indications that the attacks in Egypt
and Libya were planned long before this film ever drifted into
My colleague Tim Cavanaugh is right, I think, when he focuses
not on the putative cause of actions, : "The purpose of the attacks in
Egypt and Libya was for the Sunni leadership to show it can unleash
mob attacks against American diplomatic assets. (There may be some
historical exceptions, but it's more or less axiomatic than mob
attacks cannot happen without government approval.) That point has
been received by everybody except&U.S. State Department
employees."
There are really two large points in all of this which should be
kept front and center.
First is the one related to free expression. As I suggested
during the Mohammed cartoon controversy -
that was completely ginned up by religious fanatics who
counterfeited drawings and toured the Muslim world stoking outrage
that simply did not exist - "No one should be beaten or killed or
imprisoned simply for speaking their mind or praying to one god as
opposed to the other or none at all or getting on with the small
business of living their life in peaceful fashion. If we cannot or
will not defend that principle with a full throat, then we deserve
to choke on&whatever jihadists of all stripes can force down
our throats."
Second: U.S. foreign policy is part of our problem with the
wider world. It's not the whole problem and it doesn't sanction
anything done by al Qaeda or the PLO or Iran or the despotic Syrian
government or anything else (even as it might help explain and
predict where, why, and how those actions take place). But when
idiots like Jay Carney and large chunks of Congress and the
president and his main rival for office and so many others continue
to insist that the way the U.S. has acted over the past five, 10,
and 50 years has no bearing on foreign attitudes toward America,
its people, and its interests, you've just got to wonder how these
people tie their shoes in the morning. Are they really that stupid
or are they just totally convincing as actors?
At least since the end of the
Cold War, the United States has drifted along without anything
resembling a coherent or sustained conversation about foreign
policy, much less working to hash out a consensus position that
reflects our body politic. In the 1990s,
lurching from action to action. He
ordered 25 major troop deployments over eight years, twice as many
as Ronald Reagan. George W. Bush entered office promising a
"humble" foreign policy that repudiated "nation building" and then
embraced a disastrous "region building" approach from which we have
yet to extricate ourselves. Barack Obama tripled troops in
Afghanistan without bothering to clarify our mission there and
unilaterally decided to drop bombs in Libya. Congress has acted the
role of helpless bystander in foreign policy for going on the last
20 years at least (for god's sake, far more members supported the
second invasion of Iraq than the first!).
The predictable result is a foreign policy that is completely
unpredictable and unprincipled. There are simply no clear rules
governing when and how America will act militarily, what we stand
for, and what we stand against. Or, as Obama's bizarre phrasing of
our relationship with non-enemy Egypt (which receives billions of
dollars in aid from us), even who are allies are.
And we wonder why things aren't going our way around the

10 Extreme Examples of Gender Inequality
November 20, 2008
The human rights of women throughout the Middle East and North Africa are systematically denied by each of the countries in the region, despite the diversity of their political systems. Many governments routinely suppress civil society by restricting freedom of the press, expression, and assembly. These restrictions adversely affec however, women are subject to a host of additional gender-specific human rights violations. For example, family, penal, and citizenship laws throughout the region relegate women to a subordinate status compared to their male counterparts. This legal discrimination undermines women’s full personhood and equal participation in society and puts women at an increased risk for violence.
Family matters in countries as diverse as Iran, Egypt, Israel, Lebanon, and Saudi Arabia are governed by religion-based personal status codes. Many of these laws treat women essentially as legal minors under the eternal guardianship of their male family members. Family decision-making is thought to be the exclusive domain of men, who enjoy by default the legal status of “head of household.” These notions are supported by family courts in the region that often reinforce the primacy of male decision-making power.
Here are ten of the most extreme examples of gender inequality you can find currently practiced, often state-sanctioned, in the world today.
In Saudi Arabia, women aren’t allowed to drive, or even ride bikes, and men aren’t allowed to drive women they’re not closely related to. The kingdom is currently dealing with the dilemma of how to get 367,000 girls to school on buses that can only be driven by men. The logical question at this point is this: If no men are allowed to come in contact with schoolgirls, and women aren’t allowed to drive, who will be driving the school buses? The Ministry of Education is currently recruiting “Al-Ameen” or trustworthy men for this initiative. It may be hard for some to take this term seriously considering the way Saudi Arabia’s religious police infamously broke the trust of 15 girls’ parents in 2002 when a girls’ school was on fire. The police forbade them from leaving the building, and in some cases beat them to keep them from leaving, because the girls’ heads weren’t properly veiled. The girls all died in the fire. One has to wonder how the Ministry of Education plans to handle school-bus breakdowns near similarly inclined men.
In 2001 a militant group called Lashkar-e-Jabar demanded that Muslim women in Kashmir wear burqas, head to toe garments that cover their clothes, or risk being attacked. Men threw acid in the faces of two women for not covering up in public. The group also demanded that Hindu and Sikh women dress so as to identify themselves: they said that Hindu women should wear a bindi (the traditional colored dot) on their foreheads, and Sikh women should cover their heads with saffron-colored cloth.
In many countries, while husbands can divorce their spouses easily (often instantaneously through oral repudiation), wives’ access to divorce is often extremely limited, and they frequently confront near insurmountable legal and financial obstacles. In Lebanon, battered women cannot file for divorce on the basis of abuse without the testimony of an eyewitness. A medical certificate from a doctor documenting physical abuse is simply not good enough. Although women in Egypt can now legally initiate a divorce without cause, they must agree not only to renounce all rights to the couple’s finances, but must also repay their dowries. Essentially, they have to buy their freedom. In Israel, a man must grant his wife a get, a Jewish divorce writ that can only be given by a man to his wife – never the other way around.
In many areas of Afghanistan, girls are often taken out of school when they hit puberty. Cultural factors related to the ‘correctness’ of sending girls to school, reluctance to send girls and boys to the same school after third grade, as well as the perceived and real security threats related to girls walking to school and attending classes all contribute to slowing down the enrollment of girls in schools. Likewise, the enormous lack of female teachers, who are fundamental in a country where girls cannot be taught by a man after a certain age, is having a negative impact on girls’ education. While progress has been made since the fall of the Taliban, women are still struggling to see their rights fulfilled. Literacy rates among young Afghan women are disturbingly low: only 18 per cent of women between 15 and 24 can read. While the total number of children enrolled in primary schools is increasing tremendously, the percentage of female students is not.
Husbands in Egypt and Bahrain can file an official complaint at the airport to forbid their wives from leaving the country for any reason. In Syria, a husband can prevent his wife from leaving the country. In Iraq, Libya, Jordan, Morocco, Oman and Yemen, married women must have their husband’s written permission to travel abroad, and they may be prevented from doing so for any reason. In Saudi Arabia, women must obtain written permission from their closest male relative to leave the country or travel on public transportation between different parts of the kingdom.
Women’s unequal legal rights increase their vulnerability to violence. In many countries in the region, no specific laws or provisions exist to penalize domestic violence, even though domestic violence is a widespread problem. Domestic violence is generally considered to be a private matter outside the state’s jurisdiction. Battered women are told to go home if they attempt to file a complaint with the police. Few shelters exist to protect women who fear for their lives. Spousal rape has n husbands have an absolute right to their wives’ bodies at all times. Penal codes in several countries in the region also contain provisions that authorize the police and judges to drop charges against a rapist if he agrees to marry his victim.
In Bahrain, where family law is not codified, judges have complete power to deny women custody of their children for the most arbitrary reasons. Bahraini women who have been courageous enough to expose and challenge these violations in 2003 were sued for slander by eleven family court judges.
Most countries in the region-with the exception of Iran, Tunisia, Israel, and to a limited extent Egypt-have permitted only fathers to pass citizenship on to their children. Women married to non-nationals are denied this fundamental right.
Many countries criminalize adult, consensual sex outside of marriage. In Morocco, women are much more likely to be charged with having violated penal code prohibitions on sexual relations outside of marriage than men. Unmarried pregnant women are particularly at risk of prosecution. The Moroccan penal code also considers the rape of a virgin as an aggravating circumstance of assault. The message is clear: the degree of punishment of the perpetrator is determined by the sexual experience of the victim.
China’s one child policy has heightened the disdai abortion, neglect, abandonment, and infanticide have been known to occur to female infants. The result of such family planning has been the disparate ratio of 114 males for every 100 females among babies from birth through children four years of age. Normally, 105 males are naturally born for every 100 females.
Similarly, the number of girls born and surviving in India is significantly less compared with the number of boys, due to the disproportionate numbers of female fetuses being aborted and baby girls deliberately neglected and left to die. The normal ratio of births should be 950 girls for every 1000 boys, however in some regions the number is as low as 300.
