  • HOLOCAUST DENIAL IS a FORM of HATE SPEECH Raphael Cohen
    HOLOCAUST DENIAL IS A FORM OF HATE SPEECH ∗∗∗ Raphael Cohen-Almagor Introduction Recently Facebook confirmed that it has disabled a group called ‘I Hate Muslims in Oz.’ Barry Schnitt explained: “We disabled the ‘I Hate Muslims in Oz’ group… because it contained an explicit statement of hate. Where Holocaust-denial groups have done this and been reported, we’ve taken the same action”.1 Facebook distinguishes between ‘explicit statement of hate’ and Holocaust denial. Its directors believe that Holocaust denial is not hateful per se and does not therefore contravene the company’s terms of service. The terms of service say: “You will not post content that is hateful, threatening, pornographic, or that contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence”. 2 Schnitt said: “We’re always discussing and evaluating our policies on reported content, but have no plans to change this policy at this time. In addition to discussing it internally, we continue to engage with third-party experts on the issue”.3 In this short piece I wish to take issue with the assertion that Holocaust denial is not hateful per se . My aim is to show that it is, and therefore that Facebook should reconsider its position. All Internet providers and web- hosting companies whose terms of service disallow hateful messages on their servers should not host or provide forums for such hate-mongering. This is of urgent need as Holocaust denial is prevalent in Europe, the United States (USA) and across the Arab and Muslim parts of the world. Iran’s regime, under the disputed leadership of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has made questioning the Holocaust one of the centerpieces of its radical ∗ Educator, researcher and human rights activist.

  • The Suffocation of Free Speech Under the Gravity of Danger of Terrorism
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by bepress Legal Repository First Amendment Tim Davis Prof. Raskin The Suffocation of Free Speech under the Gravity of Danger of Terrorism I. Introduction Ali al -Timimi (“al- Timimi”) is an outspoken Muslim scholar who is well respected in the worldwide Muslim community. In his fervent support of Muslims everywhere, he has openly proclaimed that America is one of the chief enemies of the Muslim populace. 1 He has proclaimed that the explosion of the space shuttle Columbia was a sign for Muslims to take action.2 He has urged young Muslim men to jihad, to wage armed conflict with the enemies of Islam. 3 It is safe to say that al -Timimi has made numerous speeches that most Americans would find highly objectionable. On September 23, 2004, the Federal government charged al -Timimi with a six -co unt indictment4, which was later superceded by the present ten -count indictment. 5 During the trial in April 2005, the prosecution introduced over 250 evidentiary exhibits 6, testimony from several expert witnesses on radical Islamism 7, and testimony from various government agents.

No. 06-4997 ALI ASAD CHANDIA, a/k/a Abu Qatada, Defendant-Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Claude M. Hilton, Senior District Judge. (1:05-cr-00401-CMH-1) Argued: October 30, 2007 Decided: January 23, 2008 Before MICHAEL, MOTZ, and KING, Circuit Judges. Affirmed in part, vacated in part, and remanded by published opinion. Judge Michael wrote the opinion, in which Judge Motz and Judge King joined. COUNSEL ARGUED: Marvin David Miller, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appel- lant. John T. Gibbs, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUS- TICE, Washington, D.C., for Appellee. ON BRIEF: Chuck Rosenberg, United States Attorney, David H. Laufman, Assistant United States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee. Appeal: 06-4997 Doc: 71 Filed: 01/23/2008 Pg: 2 of 14 2 UNITED STATES v. CHANDIA OPINION MICHAEL, Circuit Judge: Ali Asad Chandia appeals from his conviction, after a jury trial, on three counts of providing material support to terrorists or terrorist organizations. See 18 U.S.C. §§ 2339A, 2339B. Chandia challenges his convictions on several grounds, although he does not contest the sufficiency of the evidence. He also argues that the district court erred in sentencing when it applied the terrorism enhancement under U.S.S.G. §3A1.4. We affirm Chandia’s convictions but, because the district court failed to make the factual findings necessary to impose the §3A1.4 enhancement, we vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing.

  • Expert Report: U.S. V. Hassan Abu Jihaad
    Expert Report: U.S. v. Hassan Abu Jihaad Evan F. Kohlmann ([email protected]) August 2007 INTRODUCTION My full name is Evan Francois Kohlmann. I am an International Terrorism Consultant who specializes in tracking Al-Qaida and other contemporary terrorist movements. I hold a degree in International Politics from the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service (Georgetown University), and a Juris Doctor (professional law degree) from the University of Pennsylvania Law School. I am also the recipient of a certificate in Islamic studies from the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding (CMCU) at Georgetown University. I currently work as an investigator with the Nine Eleven Finding Answers (NEFA) Foundation and as an on-air analyst for NBC News in the United States. I also run an Internet website Globalterroralert.com that provides information to the general public relating to international terrorism. I am author of the book Al-Qaida’s Jihad in Europe: the Afghan-Bosnian Network (Berg/Oxford International Press, London, 2004) which has been used as a teaching text in graduate- level terrorism courses offered at such educational institutions as Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government and the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). As part of my research beginning in approximately 1997, I have traveled overseas to interview known terrorist recruiters and organizers (such as Abu Hamza al-Masri) and to attend underground conferences and rallies; I have reviewed thousands of open source documents; and, I have amassed one of the largest digital collections of terrorist multimedia and propaganda in the world.
