Richard Dawkins - Desperate For Attention Calls Ahmed a Fraud

Dr. Richard Dawkins like Republican presidential candidate hopeful Donald Trump and James Woods is known for trolling Twitter and tweeting tweets that cause controversy. Last year Dawkins stirred up the net with his complaints against airport security for not allowing his jar of honey to go through and his defense of "mild pedophilia."  This year, he is whining about Ahmed, the young 14 year old boy who was arrested for bringing in a clock he assembled which was thought to be a hoax bomb by authorities.

Dawkins tweeted several messages attacking the young Muslim boy insinuating that he is a fraud. The narrative is that the boy possibly made this "clock device" in order to get a gofundme and attention in support of Muslims. Dawkins was immediately attacked for his tweets.  Many of his own followers attacked him. If you view his tweets you can see many atheists attacking him and attacking each other. Dawkins even posted a You Tube video of a man making his case that what Ahmed made was not a clock and in fact was just an alarm clock that he disassembled.

It seems Dawkins is desperate for attention and is causing a big uproar over nothing. Ironically, he is behaving like a typical paranoid islamophobic American "Christian conservative."  The latter have not rested in their attacks against Ahmed, Muslims in general and the Migrants from the Middle East who are seeking asylum in Europe. Dawkins is no stranger to islamophobia. He has made many xenophobic remarks in the past.  To suggest that young Ahmed made this "clock" just to get attention makes no sense.  What kid wants to get arrested?  His parents are now struggling to get the incident removed from his record so it makes no sense for them to do this if their intention was to use  Ahmed as a "sacrificial lamb" to garner pity.  Luckily many atheists are realizing that this guy is nothing but a reactionary and troll who abuses his role as a biologist in order to push atheism and ignorance. Only time will tell what the mendacious bigot will tweet next.

This man seems to know what he's talking about. https://t.co/LtOFAAmVxK If he's right, Ahmed didn't build a (cont) http://t.co/5ylV1bUbNW

If this is true, what was his motive? Whether or not he wanted the police to arrest him, they shouldn’t have done so https://t.co/LtOFAAmVxK

If the reassembled components did something more than the original clock, that’s creative. If not, it looks like hoax http://t.co/bBcaWoJpbd

It's fine to disassemble & reassemble a clock. http://t.co/bBcaWoJpbd But don't claim it's your INVENTION. https://t.co/fZFF59vV0n

OK, fraudulent claiming of an "invention" is not heinous. And he certainly should not have been arrested by the police.

Sorry if I go a bit over the top in my passion for truth. Not just over a boy's alleged "invention" but also media lies about J Corbyn.

It's not relevant to the undoubted wrongfulness of his arrest. It is relevant to the mistaken adulation he received. https://t.co/oO2dg17QHD

If the authorities really thought it might be a bomb, why did they not evacuate the building? Casts doubt on their motive for arresting him.

I'm not putting down the child. I'm putting down myself & the rest of us for being fooled. And the police for arresting him for nothing.

— Richard Dawkins (@RichardDawkins) September 20, 2015

My mistake. He was arrested on (v implausible) suspicion of a bomb HOAX. Like people at airports arrested for making jokes about bombs.
