veiled4allah: right-wing lunacy watch 4

Update: David Neiwert has more on this case. Be sure to read it.

Thanks to Elayne Riggs for bringing this to my attention. The Flash animation being used by the Kucinich campaign that I mentioned in a previous post was created by Eric Blumrich. Here is what Eric has posted on his site:

UPDATE DAY - DECEMBER 11: NICEDOGGIE.NET ISSUES DEATH THREAT AGAINST BUSHFLASH.COM It's true- the news came via a Kucinich supporter, pointing me towards this site. When I first got the news, I was shocked, and then, I hapened to check my hit statistics. I noticed that my hits began to climb at a exponential rate, when these far-right idealogues began their diatribes.

When I noticed the publicity that this insanity was generating, I sent a kind e-mail to these folks, thanking them for the publicity.

Little did I know the extent to which these people held a grudge. They have since posted, via their site, my home address, my phone number, and elements of my own website that even I was unaware of.

It gets worse....

Further elements have been added to the site- a map of my neighborhood, with a red star over my (and my roommate's) building, has been added. In recent hours, a map from Fort Dix to my apartment has been featured, along with posts simply contaning the words "ROAD TRIP!!!!!"

Neither I, nor my Roommate felt that such a threat upon our personal safety and well being could be tolerated, without recourse to higher authorities.

Legal and Law enforcement resources against this offense are currently being executed, and legal recourse is being sought.

The Kucinich campaign has been contacted, in relation to these blatant threats, and Mr. Kucinich has stated that he "has asked for the FBI to investigate."

UPDATE

This issue has been publicized by The Mike Malloy show, as well as All-American Talk Radio. I have taken the position that the best way to put an end to this sorta nonsense is to expose these roaches to the brightest light I can bear.

The aforementioned doggie site is hosted by Hosting Matters. After several e-mails to this hosting provider, it has become apparent that they are unwilling to listen to reason. They have called this a "political dispute."

I must disagree. It has been brought to my attention that this site has issued similar fatwas in the past, including one against a high-level board member of Moveon.org.

And if that ain't enough to convince you- take a look at the site, again... You will notice that this guy has a nice little side-project- for every palestinian (called "Paleswinians") killed (or, as he puts it, "Iced") by the Israelis, he sends a Pizza to the Israeli Defense Forces. I got a phone call earlier today by a jewish friend of mine, after she had seen this, and she expressed her feelings about this in terms I really can't repeat, here.

Now, of course, I'm not inclined to start some big campaign about this, but I believe repeated death threats to individuals, and revolting racism are not things that a host such as Hosting Matters would want associated with their fine name.

I can't presume to ask any of you to do so- but if you wish to let these folks know that their willingness to turn a blind eye while criminal/racist activities are carried out, via their services, is not appreciated, I humbly offer the following:

Both my Rommate and I wish to extend to the Kucinich campaign generally, and to Representative Kucinich personally, our heartfelt thanks for his attention, and personal involvement in this matter.

Eric has some very strong views against the current Administration but the appropriate response for those who disagree with him is to speak out and argue against him, not to post threats or engage in intimidation tactics.
