I've always liked Bill Handel's radio show. He's on on the weekends here in Boston. Funny guy. His is the legal show where he "tells you you have absolutely no case," and he does.

Now, I would not have made the remarks he did about the Hajj deaths. It was inappropriate and in bad taste to say the least. I might feel differently if it had been a Hamas rally at which people were trampled, but the Hajj? No. That's not cool.

Nevertheless, he's a sometimes dopy, irreverent radio guy who is routinely tasteless and offensive to pretty much everyone.

So I am so glad to see Bill standing up to CAIR's bullying (via LGF: Handel Fires Back). You can listen to Bill's statement here.

I actually think Bill leaves CAIR too much wiggle-room. I don't think they'd have an trouble condemning Bin Laden, for instance, and gone are the days when CAIR spokemen appear on talk shows and state outright that groups like Hamas are freedom fighters -- they're way more slippery than that now.

Anyway, big thumbs up to Bill Handel for standing up to CAIR, and helping to expose what they really are and what they really stand for. They are tied to Hamas.

Joking about hajj deaths is in poor taste. Yet the hajj deaths are as predictable as clockwork. One year it was tent cities burning up, another year it's the stampedes, this year people were hit and trampled by zealous pilgrims throwing stones at the devil. 1,426 people were killed in a stampede in a tunnel in Mecca in 1990. Fortunately, those pilgrims are guaranted to go to Heaven, since their deaths happened during the hajj! Too bad CAIR can't channel some of their anger at the KSA, which allows this human carnage every year.
