Where is the line on sedition?

At a protest march in San Francisco, there were some interesting signs (pictures here):

  • Support Our Mutineers - Free Hasan Akbar1
  • Support Armed Resistance in Iraq & Everywhere
  • Avenge Yassin

One wonders what the last one has to do with Iraq - isn’t the anti-Bush faction’s claim that there’s no relationship between Palestinian terror and Iraq?


1 Akbar is the Muslim soldier on trial for rolling a grenade into an officers’ tent, then shooting people as they tried to escape. So doesn’t this sign implicitly claim that he’s guilty?
