   Let us be clear - the case of [1]Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury is
   important. Choudhury is a hero and deserves our support. Which is why
   in an otherwise important post, Michelle Malkin's rhetorical question,
   "where is CAIR" is so insulting. CAIR is an American civil rights
   grassroots organization. Choudhury is a Bangaldeshi journalist facing
   a sedition charge for his brave stance against fanatical Islamists.

   This is no different from the wierd blogger experience of being
   expected to answer every blog post or comment. Why is Malkin silent
   about issue XYZ? Why are moderate muslims silent about PDQ? It is
   tiresome. Why can't we work on the basis of what we actually say,
   rather than what we have not said?

   The fact that Malkin uses Choudhury as a slam against CAIR suggests
   that his real value to her is not as an emblem of the courageous stand
   we all need to take against a common enemy, but rather as yet another
   bludgeon against her perceived foes in the US. Which is a shame
   because they are actually her allies. That Malkin celebrates her
   allies in the fight against terror when they are located in Bangladesh
   is commendable; that she labels her allies as enemies when they reside
   in the US is tragic.
