The Associated Press issues a fawning, highly misleading obituary for the Danish Islamic supremacist who kicked off the Cartoon Jihad by touring the Middle East and inciting violence: Controversial Danish imam Abu Laban dies. (Hat tip: Sugiero.)
A Palestinian immigrant who became Denmark’s leading imam, Abu Laban was thrust into the international spotlight during the firestorm over the prophet cartoons, when he accused Denmark of being disrespectful of Islam and Muslim immigrants.
Notice how the Associated Press refers to Mohammed simply as “the prophet.”
Agora has a good post on this terror-supporting, jihad-preaching cleric, with the information that the Associated Press doesn’t think you need to know: Danish Imam Abu Laban knew about planned Martyr operation.
