While I agree with Anwar that there have been "vulgar and childish
insults" made by the people he mentioned, the article Anisa posted
was fortunately free of these defects.  For this reason, I regret
Anwar's bringing it up again.

Listen up, everyone!  Just because someone doesn't agree with
your political opinions does not mean he is a bad person.

To me this is a cheap shot.  There has never been resistance to
occupation without collaborators and to suggest that the Palestinian
Intifaada is defective because some non-collaborators may have been
punished wrongly is to ignore the intense pressure place on the
people by the Israelis.

If any of us was living in the West Bank, our odds of being arrested
and beaten by the Israelis would be much greater than being killed
by other Palestinians.

What does JLE know about Anwar to say these things about him?  If
you don't know about a thing (my personal life or Anwar's for example,
don't talk about it.)  If you do know something bad about me, don't
spread it all over the world, yaHfaZak allahu wa yasturak.

It is especially bad when the people who are making their
political arguments from an Islamic perspective display
unIslamic behavior.
