Michael Savage replaced Phil Donohue during the buildup to the Iraq War. Good for the UK officials for recognizing a hate monger when they see one. Savage angrily rants against anything he dislikes and urges people to taunt those with different views. The US banned Yusaf, formerly known as Cat Stevens for security reasons. Who’s more likely to foster hate?
US ‘hate list’ DJ to sue Britain
A US radio talk show host says he will sue the British government for defamation after being placed on a list of people banned from entering the UK.
Conservative political commentator Michael Savage, real name Michael Alan Weiner, is one of 22 people barred for fostering extremism or hate.
He has described the Islamic holy book the Koran as “a book of hate” and questioned cases of autism.
Mr Weiner said he opposed violence and objected to being linked to murderers.
He told his radio audience that he was intending to sue British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith, who he described as the “lunatic … Home Secretary of England”.
“To link me up with skinheads who are killing people in Russia, to put me in league with Hamas murderers who kill people on buses is defamation,” he said.
