Note: The Northeast Intelligence Network is part of a group that investigates radical Muslim “compounds” in the U.S., etc.
This is from a Thursday press release:
Next week, investigative journalist and author Dr. Paul L. Williams will be tried in a foreign court for his investigative work on reports of al Qaeda terrorists at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.
But he broke no American statute and his alleged violation of Canadian law took place not in Canada, but at his home in Pennsylvania.Williams got into a legal jam with the Canadians while discussing his book The Dunces of Doomsday on the nationally syndicated “Coast-to-Coast AM” radio program with George Noory.
The case is significant since it represents the first time an American journalist is being forced to submit to Canadian law.Williams has been stripped of his Constitutional rights and forced to deplete his financial savings to pay for his Canadian lawyers.
“The matter would have gone away if I simply signed an apology,” Williams said, “but what kind of journalist would I be if I apologized for telling the truth?”
He estimates that the cost of the lawsuit already has topped $500,000...

Of course, the burden of proof is on Williams. We’ll see what happens.
He’s not in trouble for just doing an interview with someone, but for making the jaw-dropping claim that nuclear materials were stolen from McMaster by radical Muslims.
That’s very different from just saying, “A bunch of Muslims work there.”
