" Self " absence of logic

Reader comment on item: On New York's "Khalil Gibran International Academy"

Submitted by Ynnatchkah (United States), Jul 10, 2008 at 02:42

Excuse-me "self"…Cantor (a public official that dares to swear to defend public interest as a whole and dares to say that he represents us as a whole) said:

"…"I won't allow Dan Pipes a free pass to smear Debbie Almontaser as an Islamist proselytizer who denies Muslim involvement in 9/11. It is a false picture and an ugly effort.""…

You said: "…To be fair, David Cantor was not addressing Daniel Pipes, he was sending an email, albeit in a professional capacity."…

  1. Cantor is a public servant. Cantor is there to defend public interest as whole (not some public interest), he is being paid for that.

Let me be clear in the way I understand: OUR taxes keep him and his family alive. What he is doing is nepotism and abuse of power, using our cash- not his.

Having lived in several countries, I learned to smell corruption and something just tells me that whether for financial support or simply fear and hunger to stay in power, many "public" officials stood to support terrorists, in order not to lose their status quo and perpetuate their infinite non wisdom at a cost of our money and lives.

Do you guarantee with proofs that Cantor is Kosher, or better "hallal"?

  1. Who is Cantor to allow or disallow freedom of speech to any citizen and when in power, who is he that thinks that his ABUSE OF POWER will pass clean?
  1. Cantor will not allow Dan Pipes; however the taxes that feed Cantor are very welcome, whether or not it comes from those that support Dr. Pipes' work, right!

So how spoiled he is- shocks any healthy mind.

  1. You said "…to be fair David Cantor was not addressing Daniel Pipes"...
  1. If Dan Pipes (Dan is a diminutive/pejorative form of Daniel in a negative form, or in a different circumstance, a caring expression of the name Daniel), so if Dan Pipes does not stand for Daniel Pipes, who is this "other" Dan Pipes that ALSO exposed to the world the heinous Islamism behind the Islam Fascist Queen Drama Almontasser, along with her abuse to the society, for what in her disgusting legacy she belongs to a superior kind?

...

So who is this other Dan Pipes, "self"?

Do you realize the absence of logic of your statement or you find yourself so wise and so superior like Islamists that you think we will buy- with no contestation whatsoever- your accusations/indoctrination against Sir Dr. Daniel Pipes….

In my opinion, I advise you now:

Please, run and buy a concave mirror, and please, position yourself in several positions of the radius to have a diferent perspective of your image and how ridiculous you have just portrayed yourself. ...

Dislike
