I think you're being borderline intolerant. What is an "Islamist" exactly?
If they merely have Islamist sympathies, etc etc. Meanwhile, we have openly
Bush-supporting, pro-Iraq war, pro-gun etc editors. Banning Yin without
banning Yang (particularly when we have far more Yang than Yin) isn't going
to help our NPOV problem, nor our systemic bias.
