Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Muslim Brotherhood:
A front page article in the November-December 1991
Palestine Monitor called the trial of El-Sayyid Nosair, the
Egyptian convicted of crimes connected to the assassination
of Rabbi Meir Kahane as a "frame-up." Portraying Nosair as a
victim of the American legal system, the article weaves a
web of distortions around the facts leading to the violent
death of Rabbi Kahane. Appealing to its readers, the
Palestine Monitor characterized Nosair in the following
terms:
"Brother Nosair, facing life imprisonment if convicted
of these charges is in dire need of support of the Muslim
Community and all those interested in truth and justice. He
is a devout and religious person, committed to his family
and to Islam. He is being viciously portrayed as a terrorist
by the government, the JDL Jewish Defense League] and the
news media, when he is in fact an innocent victim of an
international political conspiracy." [48]
At the close of the article, the address of the
Brooklyn-based El Sayyid Nosair Defense Committee was
provided, along with a telephone number. The Palestine
Monitor warned its readers, "[I]f]f we don't stand up now,
in support of Brother Nosair, it will only happen again to
another one of us."[49]
