Not the Kiwanis or Rotary Club

A Chicago-area Marriott has given the boot to a gathering of Hizb ut-Tahrir, an Islamic group known for its incendiary religious rhetoric.

For instance: "Speakers at previous conferences have denounced democracy and condoned the death penalty for people who leave Islam, said the interest group's founder, Jeffrey Imm (Jihadist critic). He said he contacted the Marriott corporation last month when he saw the conference on the Oak Brook hotel's calendar."

Guess this Marriott didn't want the hassle of securing extra security and dealing with negative publicity. However, it appears a contract was breached and remedies are in order.

That is the Western Civ way, after all.

For now.
