the society to Islam(Aqeedah+Shahriah), command the good, forbid
the evil and expose falsehood from every angle. Our struggle is
always intellectual & political non-violent means.To find

If you are unable to coordinate a delegation or go to the Prosecutor’s office yourself on Feb 26th, we encourage you to call the office instead on those dates. Please e-mail the defense committee as to what happens with your delegation.
SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS FOR DELEGATIONS , PHONE CAMPAIGN, AND LETTERS
1) Briefly state your concerns regarding the illegitimate arrest of Mr. Mehanna:
The FBI has targeted Tarek Mehanna for one reason only: because he refused to cooperate with the FBI in targeting other Muslims.
The FBI threatened Mr. Mehanna with terrorism charges if he refused to 'cooperate.'
Reassert your belief that this is a political arrest and an attempt to intimidate the Muslim community.
2) Ask why Tarek was arrested and detained in solitary confinement on new charges in the absence of any new evidence over the past year. He has not violated his parole.
3) How much longer do they intend to waste taxpayer’s money and drag out this illegitimate proceeding?
4) Demand that they end the illegitimate proceedings against Tarek Mehanna.
5) Point out that this month marks the one year anniversary of the legal proceedings against the federal prosecutor and assistant US attorney Suzanne Sullivan for misconduct and it is our sincere hope that Mr. Chakravarty does not plan to follow in her footsteps.
“It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion, clearly and courageously, a certain number of facts that are forgotten with time. The first of these is that there is no Zionism,colonialization or Jewish State without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands.” -Yoram Bar Porath, Yediot Aahronot, of 14 July 1972
