Sayed said that the jury must not have been able to distinguish between the lectures Ali delivered and charges against him. "The government alleged Ali incited people to buy arms and take them overseas to fire against people, but they never presented anything at the trial to show any facts relevant to any evidence. They only relied on Ali's lectures."

The lectures are the evidence. Incitement is the crime, stupid.


"What he said was perhaps repugnant and inflammatory, but was it really his intent to have people go and take his words and translate that into going and killing other human beings, specifically Americans?" Bray asked.


That would be a great defense for mafia dons. When he said "someone should go kill Mario", was it really his intent that his capos should go kill Mario? The poor mob boss's 1st Amendment rights are being trampled!
