Which is perhaps why Ezra Levant questioned his intellegence in the first place. After all, intelligence isn’t a measure of how smart you are at the outset; it’s about your ability to learn.

You would think that a guy who had his ass handed to him most efficiently by Mark Steyn and Maclean’s Magazine would run and lick his woulds quietly somewhere. But alas not. Kurrum Awan, lead sock puppet in Mohammed ElMasry’s grievance/shakedown against Macleans, has decided to sue Ezra Levant for libel.

Shakedown

Khurrum Awan admitted under oath he had tried to get Maclean’s to pay $10,000 in penance for running Mark Steyn’s book excerpt. I call that a shakedown, Al Sharpton-style.

Awan? He has it both ways; he claims the money would be for a charity, not for himself (again, I charge I never made). And then he denies it was a shakedown at all.

I think Awan is too used to writing logically incoherent letters to the editor. It will be fascinating to hear what a real judge thinks of Awan’s little scheme to liberate $10,000 from Maclean’s. Shakedown? Hell yes it was. And I’ll always be proud of Maclean’s that they didn’t pay.

His Notice of Service was charmingly riddled with typos, and since he wrote it himself, he couldn’t decide if he wanted to write it in first or third person - so he kept switching back and forth.

There is no mention of the two hot booty-call sock puppets this time. Which is a pity - not only were those girls attractive, but I think they were a hell of a lot smarter.

Kurrum Awan will probably never be a lawyer of any great standing. He is clearly too hot headed and possibly mildly retarded (in that Muslim cave-dwelling way). But he may have a brilliant future ahead of him as Canada’s Al Sharpton.

Good luck in your endeavors, Kurrum. Or, you know, not.
