Last Sunday we featured a MEMRI TV video of Salah Sultan, preaching Islamic supremacism and anti-rational conspiracy theories on Al-Risala TV.

Salah Sultan lives in Columbus, Ohio, and lectures at the area’s Islamic school, the Sunrise Academy. Today at FrontPage, Patrick Poole relates the story of what happened to him when he tried to expose this freak to the local newspaper, the Columbus Dispatch: Hometown Jihad: Blowback.

Last month FrontPageMag.com published my article, Hometown Jihad, concerning my return to my hometown, Hilliard, Ohio, following a decade-long absence, only to find that one of my new neighbors was none other than Salah Sultan, a well-known international terror apologist and anti-Semite, and that he was a regular speaker at the local Islamic school here in Hilliard, Sunrise Academy.

When the article came out, I harbored no illusions that I would be offered the key to the city, have a public school named in my honor, or be invited to be grand marshal of the July 4th parade for the public service I had rendered to our community by exposing this immediate terrorist threat. Thus far, none of that has happened, nor do I expect such to be forthcoming.
 
What I couldn’t anticipate, however, was that Salah Sultan’s supporters in the Islamic and “interfaith community” here in the Columbus area would enlist the services of the local paper, the Columbus Dispatch, to airbrush Sultan’s record and defend the Islamic school he is associated with, while simultaneously launching an attack on FrontPage Magazine and myself, likening us to neo-Nazis, and accusing me of “inciting violence against the children of the school” and engaging in “hate speech”.

Read the whole thing to get a rather alarming sense of how deeply radical Islam has rooted itself in the Columbus area.
