    (ST. PAUL, MN, 11/2/2007) – The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MN) today thanked three companies in that state that have agreed to drop their advertisements from Michael Savage's nationally-syndicated radio program because of the host's recent anti-Muslim tirade.

Yesterday, CAIR reported that Savage, whose "The Savage Nation" airs on more than 300 radio stations nationwide, screamed attacks on Muslims, Islam and the Quran, Islam's revealed text, during his October 29, 2007, program.

The Washington-based Islamic civil rights and advocacy group called on radio listeners of all faiths to contact companies that advertise on Savage's program to express their concerns about the host's recent anti-Muslim bigotry.

Savage's shouted anti-Muslim attacks included: "I don't wanna hear anymore about Islam. I don't wanna hear one more word about Islam. Take your religion and shove it up your behind. I'm sick of you."

"What kind of religion is this? What kind of world are you living in when you let them in here with that throwback document in their hand, which is a book of hate. Don't tell me I need reeducation. They need deportation. I don't need reeducation. Deportation, not reeducation."

“Make no mistake about it, the Quran is not a document of freedom. The Quran is a document of slavery and chattel. It teaches you that you are a slave."

“We thank the Minnesota companies that refused to support Michael Savage’s bigotry and intolerance with their advertising dollars,” said CAIR-MN Executive Director Omar Merhi. “We call on all the other companies running ads on his program nationwide to follow Minnesota’s example.”

(WASHINGTON, D.C., 11/1/2007) - A prominent national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group today called on radio listeners of all faiths to contact companies that advertise on Michael Savage's nationally-syndicated radio program to express their concerns about the host's recent anti-Muslim tirade.

The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said Savage, whose "The Savage Nation" airs on more than 300 radio stations nationwide, screamed attacks on Muslims, Islam and the Quran, Islam's revealed text, during his October 29, 2007, program. A number of concerned listeners contacted CAIR about Savage's attacks on Islam.

Savage's shouted anti-Muslim attacks included:

"I'm not gonna put my wife in a hijab. And I'm not gonna put my daughter in a burqa. And I'm not gettin on my all-fours and braying to Mecca. And you could drop dead if you don't like it. You can shove it up your pipe. I don't wanna hear anymore about Islam. I don't wanna hear one more word about Islam. Take your religion and shove it up your behind. I'm sick of you."

"What kind of religion is this? What kind of world are you living in when you let them in here with that throwback document in their hand, which is a book of hate. Don't tell me I need reeducation. They need deportation. I don't need reeducation. Deportation, not reeducation. You can take C-A-I-R and throw 'em out of my country. I'd raise the American flag and I'd get out my trumpet if you did it. Without due process. You can take your due process and shove it."

"What sane nation that worships the U.S. constitution, which is the greatest document of freedom ever written, would bring in people who worship a book that tells them the exact opposite. Make no mistake about it, the Quran is not a document of freedom. The Quran is a document of slavery and chattel. It teaches you that you are a slave."

Michael Savage has a long history of rhetorical attacks on Muslims and other minorities. In 2004, Savage stated: "I think [Muslims] need to be forcibly converted to Christianity...It's the only thing that can probably turn them into human beings." In 2006, he called for a ban on Muslim immigration and recommended making "the construction of mosques illegal in America."

"Michael Savage obviously cares little about the safety or civil rights of American Muslims, but the stations that carry his hate-filled rants do care about listeners' attitudes toward advertisers who pay to air commercials during his program," said CAIR Communications Coordinator Amina Rubin. "Americans of all faiths should take a few minutes to contact any local station that broadcasts Savage's inflammatory tirades to say they will not buy the goods or services of his advertisers."

Rubin added that hate-filled words can and do lead to violent actions against American Muslims. She said there have been several recent apparently bias-related incidents targeting mosques, Islamic institutions and Muslim individuals nationwide.

In Ohio, Nazi swastikas and the phrase "white power" were spray-painted on a Toledo Islamic school and rocks were thrown at worshipers outside a Columbus mosque. In Texas, a shot was fired into a mosque. In New York, a Muslim woman was badly beaten in a bias attack. In California, arsonists torched one mosque and a group of men attacked another. In Maryland, vandals slashed the tires of vehicles owned by a Muslim activist.

CAIR's latest annual report on the status of American Muslim civil rights showed a 25 percent increase in the total number of complaints of anti-Muslim bias from 2005 to 2006.

Savage advocated "kill[ing] 100 million" Muslims; called alleged Duke rape victim a "drunken slut stripping whore"
Summary: On April 17, Michael Savage called for "kill[ing] 100 million" Muslims and referred to the alleged Duke rape victim as a "drunken slut stripping whore."
 

On April 17, nationally syndicated radio host Michael Savage called for "kill[ing] 100 million" Muslims and referred to the woman who alleged she was raped by members of Duke University's lacrosse team as a "drunken slut stripping whore."

On his radio show, Savage told listeners that "intelligent people, wealthy people ... are very depressed by the weakness that America is showing to these psychotics in the Muslim world. They say, 'Oh, there's a billion of them.' " Savage continued: "I said, 'So, kill 100 million of them, then there'd be 900 million of them.' I mean ... would you rather us die than them?" Savage added: "Would you rather we disappear or we die? Or would you rather they disappear and they die? Because you're going to have to make that choice sooner rather than later."

Savage also referred to the alleged Duke rape victim as "a drunken slut stripping whore accusing men of raping her when there is absolutely no evidence of such a rape other than what comes out of that filthy mouth of hers." He later asked: "What kind of system do we have that anyone can scream rape and not have to show her face?" adding, "This is all the product of the out-of-control lesbian feminist movement." Echoing previous comments he has made about the alleged rape victim, Savage said, "The Durham dirt-bag case disgusts me to my core."

Savage has also previously referred to the alleged victim as a "dirty, verminous black stripper."

From the April 17 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:

SAVAGE: There are too many RDDBs [red-diaper doper babies, Savage's term for people supposedly raised by Marxist parents] in high places and in the media and in the courts for us to stand up to this fanatical enemy. And so unless the RDDB is reined in somehow or taken out of power, we're going to die as a nation. I swear to G-d that's what people are saying to me. And these are intelligent people, wealthy people. They are very depressed by the weakness that America is showing to these psychotics in the Muslim world. They say, "Oh, there's a billion of them." I said, "So, kill 100 million of them, then there'll be 900 million of them." I mean, would you rather die -- would you rather us die than them? I mean, what is it going to take for you people to wake up? Would you rather we disappear or we die? Or would you rather they disappear and they die? Because you're going to have to make that choice sooner rather than later.

[...]

SAVAGE: Now, we got the Durham dirt-bag case. The Durham dirt-bag case disgusts me to my core. Here, you have a drunken slut stripping whore accusing men of raping her when there is absolutely no evidence of such a rape other than what comes out of that filthy mouth of hers. And what really gets to me, here, is not only the piling on by the vermin in the media -- the spineless eunuchs in the media who are taking the side of an unknown accuser without ever having to ask her one question. What kind of system do we have that anyone can scream rape and not have to show her face, not answer to the public. And, yet, those she accuses are suddenly guilty until they're proven innocent. This is all the product of the out-of-control lesbian feminist movement.

Savage: To "save the United States," lawmakers should institute "outright ban on Muslim immigration" and on "the construction of mosques"
 

On the November 27 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, Michael Savage declared that in order to "save the United States," lawmakers should institute "an outright ban on Muslim immigration" into the country. Savage also recommended making "the construction of mosques illegal in America, and the speaking of English only in the streets of the United States the law."

Savage made the remarks while discussing a November 20 incident in which six imams were detained at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport after a passenger became alarmed that the imams were praying. The imams were cleared of any wrongdoing. Savage claimed that the imams' prayers in the airport -- and not the fact that they were asked to de-board the plane -- constituted a "complete and total assault upon our civil rights," adding that the Justice Department should "stand up to these imams and possibly throw them out of the country for having staged this attack at the airport against US Airways specifically to impose Muslim views on society through civil rights and diversity training." Savage also baselessly suggested that the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) planted the imams at the airport to incite the incident, saying that "there's an email trail about how to do this and it goes right into the ACLU and the other subversive organizations."

As Media Matters for America has extensively documented, Savage has previously described Arabs as "non-humans" and "racist, fascist bigots," advocated "kill[ing] 100 million" Muslims, and claimed that there is no difference between "radical Islam and the rest of Islam over there."

From the November 27 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:

SAVAGE: The Islamists smell weakness in the West and are attacking us on several fronts at once: one, through outright war; two, through immigration; three, through their propaganda disseminated through the liberal media and four, through the liberal courts. Only a devastating military blow against the hearts of Islamic terror coupled with an outright ban on Muslim immigration, laws making the dissemination of enemy propaganda illegal, and the uncoupling of the liberal ACLU can save the United States. I would also make the construction of mosques illegal in America and the speaking of English only in the streets of the United States the law.

[...]

SAVAGE: Now, this thing at the airport last week was a complete and total assault upon our civil rights and those who did it used the Trojan horse of civil rights. These so-called imams, if you want to call them that -- I don't know what they're imams of -- but the so-called scholars who put that stunt on used the Trojan horse of civil rights in order to assault our civil rights. Make no mistake about it. We have to get rid of these kind of Islamic radicals. There is no question in my mind that this was an illegitimate assault upon our civil rights and upon our own survival.

Now, we need the FBI to be strong against them. We need the Justice Department to stand up to these imams and possibly throw them out of the country for having staged this attack at the airport against US Airways specifically to impose Muslim views on society through civil rights and diversity training. I know exactly what I am talking about. I know exactly who these people are and I am not going to be bowed by these radicals. I want the FBI to investigate the planning for this assault upon US Airways. How about you?

[...]

SAVAGE: Right, this was a Trojan horse assault upon our defenses. They were using religion as a Trojan horse to overthrow our civil rights and to penetrate us for a future attack. That's how I look at it. If I was the FBI, I would investigate their fingernails for any trail of a conspiracy to do this and I'd slap those imams into irons if I had to, once I found out that that's what they were doing. I can guarantee you there's an email trail about how to do this and it goes right into the ACLU and the other subversive organizations.

Savage accused "ordinary Muslim" caller of using phone from "bomb factory in the Gaza strip"
Summary: In a discussion with a caller he later described as an "ordinary Muslim," Michael Savage declared that, based on the caller's views about the war in Iraq and fading phone signal, he must have been using a cell phone "made over there in a bomb factory in the Gaza strip."
 

In a discussion with a caller he later described as an "ordinary Muslim," on the April 24 edition of his nationally syndicated radio program, Michael Savage declared that, based on the caller's views about the war in Iraq and fading phone signal, he must have been using a cell phone "made over there in a bomb factory in the Gaza strip." Savage also said that "[a]ll Aljazeera outlets should be blown up in the United States of America by the federal government." He later asked, "How come you don't hear about there's a billion Christians that could be marshaled to defend Western civilization?" Savage concluded that Christians are failing to "stand up" because "liberalism has perverted Christianity."

From the April 24 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:

SAVAGE: Chicago, [caller], you're on The Savage Nation. Go ahead, please.

CALLER: Hi Michael, I just want to say you don't indict a global faith for the actions of some individuals.

SAVAGE: Now, I've heard that homily before, so, perhaps, you could help me and those listening to this show by answering this question. Why is it that your faith of Islam is so easily misinterpreted to permit suicide bombings and other acts that are outside the can of human behavior?

CALLER: You see, it's not misinterpreted, it's actually, some individuals who, in their minds, are righting a wrong, which we all agree about, and the --

SAVAGE: Wait, what do you mean righting a wrong with which we all agree about? So, you agree with them?

CALLER: No, I don't agree with them, of course, but, I do agree that some things, for instance, you know, the Iraq war, the Afghanistan, so many other things --

SAVAGE: So, you were in favor of the Taliban in Afghanistan, I see.

CALLER: I am not.

SAVAGE: You like the Taliban blowing up Buddhist statues that are 1,300 years old and keeping women out of jobs. Is that your idea of an Islamic state?

CALLER: No, you are missing my point, Michael.

SAVAGE: Well, you just said that it's -- that we -- we did something wrong in Afghanistan. How? By liberating the Afghanistan -- the Afghani people? Please interpret for me what you just said because it makes no sense.

CALLER: OK, this is just what I'm trying to tell you here. The invasion of Iraq, OK? You have so many Americans, including myself, who are, you know, against it --

SAVAGE: What do you mean? You keep saying, "you know." I don't know. What? Because you suddenly found the voice in [Sen.] Ted Kennedy [D-MA] and the liberals who hate Bush, you think that everybody in America thinks it was a mistake to topple Saddam Hussein? So, you were a fan of Saddam Hussein?

CALLER: You see, you're putting, you know, putting words --

SAVAGE: You can't have it both ways. You cannot have it both ways. You tell me that you are a -- you hate America because we invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. That's what you just said. But you're telling me on the other hand, you don't agree with those who are chanting, "Zionists, you will pay. The wrath of Allah is on its way. The mushroom cloud is on its way. The real holocaust is on its way." You like those words?

CALLER: Michael, if I -- somebody came here and --

SAVAGE: I just, wait -- wait -- wait. No. Answer my question. Don't play Philadelphia lawyer with me. Do you want a mushroom cloud here in America? Do you want a holocaust in America?

CALLER: I don't, Michael. You see --

SAVAGE: How would I know that? Why do you say it with such a patronizing pained "Michael"? How would I know that? You were -- suddenly, you shifted gears pretty quick. Two minutes ago, you were sympathetic, saying that we all agree with the wrongs that have been done to the Muslim world. I am so sick of hearing about wrongs done to the Muslim world! Don't you understand it's a bunch of crap!

CALLER: Let me tell you. This is some of the wrong. If -- if someone tries to come here and overthrow our government, would you -- would you agree to that? Of course, you wouldn't. If someone came and killed half of your family members --

SAVAGE: You're breaking up, I'm afraid you'll have to use an American cell phone, not the one given to you by your controller made over there in a bomb factory in the Gaza strip. So, there we have another one, a fellow traveler, and let's assume that he's just another ordinary Muslim.

[...]

SAVAGE: Today, of course, three bombings hit the Egyptian beach resort popular with foreigners killing at least 21, wounding 60 -- that means probably 100 people are going to die over time. Now, this is a day after OBL [Osama bin Laden] issued a tape warning against Westerners which was disseminated by the hate filled Aljazeera, which should be, as far as I'm concerned, blown up. All Aljazeera outlets should be blown up in the United States of America by the federal government. The FBI should immediately get warrants go in there and rip the wiring out of their facilities and arrest everybody in Aljazeera. You know, this is like saying, we're in the pre-stages of war with Nazi Germany -- it's 1939 -- and the Nazis have an outlet in America called Deutschland ueber Alles [German national anthem] and they have a network that they can disseminate Hitler's ideas to America and we're sitting here saying, "Well, it's freedom of speech. We're a nation of immigrants. It's freedom of religion" -- all of the shibboleths of the left.

[...]

SAVAGE: I had a long talk with a friend that I admire very much yesterday. He's a very deep conservative, gives a lot of money to conservative causes, but he's very -- he's very frustrated. He looks ahead and he says, "They're going to win." I say, what do you mean they're going to win? I said we know what nations are the nation state sponsors of these suicide bombers. We know they're Iran, we know they're Syria, we know they're Saudi Arabia. We all know that. I said, there's (sic) very simple solutions.

You got to wipe the nests out at the top. Take the head of the snake out, and suddenly, the bombs stop. He says but there's a billion some odd -- 100 million of them. I said, yeah, well there's (sic) over a billion Christians. How come you don't hear about there's (sic) a billion Christians that could be marshaled to defend Western civilization? Why is nobody telling the Christians to stand up and survive, or they're going to disappear, or their children will become slaves, or be forcibly converted? Why? Well, there's (sic) a million answers. The number one answer is because liberalism has perverted Christianity. Liberalism has perverted every religion on this planet. Liberalism is a cancer. Liberalism is a virus. Liberalism is a mental disorder. We are at war and we know it.
