British Muslim reformer Maajid Nawaz is suing the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) after the group denounced him in a report calling him an anti-Muslim extremist.
Earlier this year, Mr. Nawaz announced that he would be would be seeking damages from the SPLC along with several Christian groups after being put on a “hate list”. The list, referred to as a “Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Extremists” by the SPLC, put Nawaz and several conservative Christian groups along side extremists like the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) and members of actual neo-Nazi organisations.
In a video statement put out on YouTube in July. Nawaz said: “The Southern Poverty Law Center, or SPLC, who made their money suing the KKK, was set up to defend people like me but now have become the monster they have claimed they wanted to defeat.”

Maajid Nawaz the historical terroristic view holding Mr nobody, apparently has honed his skills to speak up against any such views he himself had.
Anti-muslim extremist! What is the world coming to.
Maybe I’m reading too much between the lines, Breitbart never has the desired default position of Takiyah, can’t say much about SPLC.
A bit Ironic that the confederate statue toppling person is named Takiyah (maybe her muslim name) Johnson (maybe her owners name).

Personally, I feel he is right to sue, he really doesn’t deserve to be included in a list made up of these people:
Ann Corcoran
Steven Emerson
Brigitte Gabriel
Frank Gaffney
Pamela Geller
John Guandolo
Ayaan Hirsi Ali
David Horowitz
Ryan Mauro
Maajid Nawaz
Robert Muise
Daniel Pipes
Walid Shoebat
Robert Spencer

How many of these have a fatwa out against them so must live with extreme security measures?

Why is it these ex extremists/islamists have carved a career as experts on Extremism and are pundits in the media? In addition to Majid Nawas we have Ed Hussain, Shiraz Maher and others.
How are these individuals qualified to tackle extremism when they themselves were extremists not that long ago?

It is something I have never understood.
We see something like it in someone like Mad Mel – Melanie Phillips who move from the far left to … where she is today.

There you go Reg, you couldn’t offer a decent argument as to why you qualify to diagnose Melanie Philips as ‘mad’ so you resort to playground spite. Why not reply to my question above or perhaps if you did answer it you would be giving yourself away…..
There is nothing mad about Melanie Philips that I have detected or are you adding psychoanalysis to your vast list of credentials…..
