“Nearly a week after the death of the “blind sheik” Omar Abdel Rahman in a U.S. prison, the New York Times published an interview with his lawyer, Lynne Stewart, in which she remembered Rahman not as a terrorist but as the ‘personification of an American hero.’“
Hairy faced commie. Die already. Please.
Trump has it right, that what they call main stream media, is an enemy of freedom, American and Canadian and European. From this sludge to the “globull warming” sludge they have been purveying for 25 years, these useful idiots have done their part for Marxism and a socialist wet dream to a tee. The sad part is there are so many idiots that refuse to look past the Justys and the Hilldabeests.
Lynne Stewart was punished for NOT providing the prosecution Lawyers with her clients privileged information.. The BIG lie that a defense Lawyer does not give up all information… That is why a defendant needs a PR expert between themselves & their Lawyer….Perverted Justice
BTW: The Blind piece of crap should have been chemically castrated.
As an integral part of the institutional left, the MSM is, by definition, the enemy of liberty, reason, and civil society. I’m somewhat surprised that this particular Lawyer had not been discovered by the Obama Administration and put into a key Cabinet post. Perhaps there are so many to choose from that she was out-classed by the tens of thousands from the ranks of the professoriate alone. That, and the fear that she may have cracked all the mirrors in the White House.
Lynne Stewart, Jihadi Lawyer:
“On January 17, 1996, a federal court in New York sentenced Abdel Rahman to life in prison. In April 1997, the government blocked his access to the outside world because of fears that his terrorist connections remained active. Stewart signed an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice not to pass information to or from her client, except that which was legally necessary. Since the sheikh had already been convicted and had exhausted his appeals, Stewart’s role should have been limited to assuring his humane treatment in prison.”
Fast-forward eight years. On February 10, 2005, another New York court found Stewart, now 66, as well as the sheikh’s court-appointed translator, Mohammad Yousry, 48, and his former paralegal, Ahmed Sattar, 46, guilty of conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government for their part in enabling communications between the imprisoned sheikh and his network.”
Stewart and her coconspirators flouted their agreement with the Justice Department and helped the sheikh circumvent the communications ban. According to government recordings of their prison visits, Yousry, who also served as an adjunct lecturer in Middle East studies at York College of the City University of New York, conveyed messages to and from the sheikh while Stewart created what the prosecution called “covering noises.” On some surveillance videos, Stewart could be seen shaking a water jar or tapping on the table while Yousry and the sheikh exchanged communications that were then later disseminated to the sheikh’s followers via the former paralegal.”
I understand her original sentence was increased to ten years. She deserves every minute of it.

She as also convicted on charges of conspiracy and providing material support to terrorists… But didn’t she get off on compassionate grounds re an alleged terminal disease (apart from stupidity and malice, I mean)?!
Seems that was bogus, too… I’d wop her ugly hide straight back to prison, with no further excuses accepted…
