I assume the readers of the net are wondering why I posted this last article.
Since Mr. Dodd feels that he is being censored, this should prove to him once
and for all that he is not, but that there is a problem with his being able
to post to this group.  He approached me with this concern a few days back,
and I replied to him almost immediately, this he cannot deny.  I explained
to him that several people had this trouble, in fact it was posted in 
soc.culture.arabic that this was happening, and that his best solution was 
to mail his articles directly to me, and I would post them.  The previous
letter was what I got in reponse to my efforts.

Maybe Mr. Dodd also didn't receive the articles in soc.culture.arabic
and talk.politics.mideast where I was the only non-Muslim to defend Islam
in a few occasions when the religion was attacked (as so frequently is)
by Joachim Martillo.  And maybe he forgets that the reason that I agreed
to take on co-moderatorship of this group is because of my respect for
Islam and its followers.  I may not be a Muslim, but that does not mean that
I am automatically going to be an attacker.  I think my past actions
have proven the opposite to be true.

If Mr. Dodd still feels the same about my actions as moderator of this group
after Behnam and I have explained to him that he is not being censored, then
I shall leave it up to you, the readers of the group, to decide.
