Whatever happened to the Lady of the Double AA?
On Jihad Watch today, Hugh Fitzgerald resurrects that old bugbear of Jihad Watch, Mustafa Akyol (who, being a Good Cop Muslim, is easy to attack -- unlike a Maajid Nawaz or a Zuhdi Jasser -- by Counter-Jihad Mainstreamers like Hugh).
I fondly recall voluminous Jihad Watch comments threads where a "friend" of Robert Spencer elaborated at great length defending Mustafa Akyol along with his patron, the sinister Fethullah Gulen. That friend called herself "Morgaan Sinclair" (and, of course, claimed it is her real name). She proceeded to devolve in subsequent comments fields so outrageously, she was apparently banned -- as was I, for understandably lashing back at her after too many of her flagrant defenses of Muslims (including among other things, her vilification of Serbians defending themselves against Islamic jihad) in tissues of maddening logic.
Here's one example of many of Morgaan Sinclair's shenanigans. Scroll down, and pop some popcorn to go along with your coffee. (Note: my handle back then was "remote control".)
So Hugh in the article linked above in my first paragraph is shining a harshly skeptical light on Mustafa Akyol's claims to be a Muslim "Reformer". Why is Mustafa Akyol any more suspect than any of the others in the long list of supposed Great Brown Hopes (i.e., Muslim Reformers) paraded before Jihad Watch readers recently by Robert Spencer's colleague, Christine Williams?
More importantly, why is this kind of question not asked on Jihad Watch by the Leadership and by the Civilians? Why is it only left to me on some obscure nook and/or cranny of the Internet to raise it?
