Wow, Pamela Is Doing a Great Job Covering the Rifqa Bary Case

Thank God for Pamela and Robert Spencer.

Check this out:

The coverage of Rifqa Bary's hearing in the decrepit mainstream media is appalling and dishonest, yet again but I could not help but laugh when I got a gander at today's column from one of our favorite low lives on the lower end of the media food chain: Michael "Lapdog" Kruse. His last column was low, but he managed to outdo even himself. He hits bottom and keeps on digging.

You remember my last Kruse fisk here. In that infinitely forgettable piece, he is calling for the arrest of the Christian Samaritans who took in a young girl running for her life. He would have been the better person and turned away a desperate child in fear of her life. Get it??

I am not going to fisk all the dreck he wrote, but a couple of things stand out. His tawdry lies about Rifqa and his denigration of her defenders is disgusting.

No abuse found, says attorney for Muslim family of runaway Christian teen Michael Kruse, St. Petersburg Times

[Rifqa Bary] was in court Thursday, wearing a brown sweater, a white dress and dark red nail polish. She said nothing, but did blow an occasional kiss to people she knew in the courtroom when she wasn't reading her Bible.

Kruse is a liar. I was sitting in the first row. I never took my eyes off her. She never blew a kiss to anyone. Depraved. And what about the "darkred nail polish"? I didn't see any "dark red nail polish", I can't say either way, but what is this perv looking at and looking for? Kruse is depicting this sweet, innocent little girl as some kind of .... trollop. Zsa Zsa Gabor. Kruse is evil and his hatred of Rifqa is the hatred of the good for being the good.

Thursday, the state Department of Children Families asked that Bary no longer be allowed to visit with Blake and Beverly Lorenz. The judge agreed, although he let her continue to visit with the Lorenzes' three children, who are in their 20s, and whom Bary considers "dear friends and spiritual advisers," according to John Stemberger, her attorney.

Note the contempt for anything "spiritual". Kruse is an empty vassal.

In court, Krista Bartholomew, Bary's guardian ad litem, said this case was "not a holy war," but that's what this has become over the last month.

Jamal Jivanjee, the Ohio pastor, compared Rifqa Bary to Anne Frank, the Jewish girl who was killed by Nazis in World War II and whose diary became what many consider one of the most important books of the 20th century.

Jamal Jivanjee, a righteous and brave soul. Kruse is not fit to lick his boots.

Robert Spencer, who writes on a blog called Jihad Watch, told reporters Islam was here to take over America.

Uh, a blogger? Spencer has written nine books, including two bestsellers, and briefed the FBI, JTTF, DHS, Central Command and intelligence community on Islamic jihad.

Pam [sic] Geller of the Atlas Shrugs blog dismissed the results of the Franklin County investigation by saying things were "corrupt in Ohio."

Rifqa went to school with bruises on her arms and legs. She told at least 20 adults of threats and fears (one cop admitted to that). Yet Sgt. Jerry Cupp of the missing-persons unit of the Columbus police special-victims bureau, ignored all that and disputed Rifqa's charge against Mohamed Bary. That's not corruption? There is a history of intimidation. Islam has a history of honor killings. Her father belongs to a radical mosque. And LE is saying there is no threat? If they are not corrupt, they are incomprehensibly stupid.

"Forget your political correctness!" she said.

If Phil Keating is not politically correct, then what is he? A misogynist? A convert?

Muslim businessman Mohammad Lutfi of Orlando yelled that Trento, Spencer and Geller were "conservative, right-wing militants" and "crusaders."

Check out "Muslim businessman". He was a CAIR plant, a vicious, lying agitator who tried to turn the hearing into a circus. But Spencer is a "blogger". Get it?

That was Kruse's take on the hearing today -- from the wonderful world of Disney.

UPDATE: At the first hearing the perv-ish Kruse wrote this:

In the courtroom, the girl with the twig-thin legs wore heavy rouge and spent most of the time reading her Bible, while her mother sat across the way in a blue and purple gown and head scarf wiping tears from her face

One. Sick. Puppy.

UPDATE: Kruse is on my video here. Spencer has him on record:

And now, a word from the cinematic classic Masked and Anonymous:

Editor: So, are you still a journalist or a novelist?
Tom Friend: Same thing out here....
Editor: Make something out of it. And if you can't do that, sir, then make it up!

Yesterday the journalist/novelist Michael Kruse of the St. Petersburg Times, who is very good at making things up, said this about me:

Robert Spencer, who writes on a blog called Jihad Watch, told reporters Islam was here to take over America.

In response, I pointed this out here:

Kruse didn't think it necessary to note that when I said that "Islam wasn't here to worship and get along but rather to become the dominant religion in America," I was referring to a statement of Omar Ahmad, cofounder and longtime board chairman of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, of which Mohammad Lutfi called himself an "honor member" (video coming soon). I attributed this statement to Ahmad. But by phrasing his report this way, as I am sure Kruse was aware, he made me sound like a nut, whereas if he had noted that it was a quote from the cofounder of CAIR, indicating that there are Muslims in America who say this sort of thing, his story would have taken on a substantially different cast.

[...]

You will see in this video that I refer to the statement by Omar Ahmad about Islam becoming dominant in the United States and the Koran being the only law in this country, mention Omar Ahmad by name and identify who he is, and all the while standing to my immediate left is none other than...MichaelKruse of the St. Petersburg Times. He is the one in the blue shirt with Seventies-style hair and a beard, taking notes with a blue pen.

So here it is on video: Michael Kruse was right there, he heard me attribute the statement properly, and then he made the decision to strip out the attribution and characterize the statement as if it were an out-of-the-blue assertion from a paranoid blogger.

Also click over to Pamela's site to see these important videos.

I admire Pamela for her relentless pursuit of the truth in this case, and especially for her ability to keep calm, clear, and concise when she is beseiged from every direction by people attacking her.

That is an ability I do not have.
