This past Tuesday, July 17th, 2012, The Legal Project’s Director Sam Nunberg was interviewed on The Christian Broadcast Network’s “Stakelbeck on Terror” show by the CBN News Terrorism Analyst Erick Stakelbeck. The interview focused on the current status of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s Defamation of Religion initiative which is currently being promoted through the Istanbul Process. Highlighting the forces of Islamism that are working to silence both free expression and free speech in the United States and in Europe, Director Nunberg stressed that the Islamists’ ultimate goal is to codify the Koran’s anti-blasphemy laws internationally. Director Nunberg also stressed that the Obama Administration’s State Department has been both the Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s most consistent and significant partner in promoting an international framework for the Defamation of Religion initiative with little or no scrutiny from the American public.
