The Strange Case Of Dr. Mustafa Ahmed Abbasi

Patrick Poole of Pajamas Media asks this question: "Are Muslim Defendants Getting Special Treatment in Court?" Excerpt:
An otherwise unremarkable hearing in the Fairfax County, Virginia, general district court last Thursday marked an ominous trend with respect to the cherished American judicial principles of the rule of law and equality before the law. The hearing on four misdemeanor charges against Dr. Mustafa Ahmed Abbasi featured all of the usual players — judge, bailiff, clerks, prosecutors, police officers, criminal attorneys, and defendant — but with one notable addition to the judicial drama, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

CAIR’s intervention in the Abbasi case is a manifestation of a larger campaign against law enforcement to use political alliances and legal threats to intimidate police in cases involving Muslim defendants and to establish separate and preferable treatment for Muslims in the American legal system....
I know. So what else is new?

Nevertheless, read the Patricke Poole's entire article HERE. Is CAIR harassing the Fairfax County Police Department?

I will post an article on other salient points from this article.

Citizens should also request the Virginia licensing board and Kaiser Permanente to discipline Dr. Abassi.
