Approximately 100 armed federal agents, backed by a helicopter, 50 vehicles and sharpshooters, raided a Muslim meatpacking plant earlier this week but remain silent about the secret operation. Only half a dozen people work at the plant.
No one was arrested, but one eyewitness said the huge police force indicates that the raid may involve criminal activity other than hiring illegal immigrants. Terror-related activity has not been ruled, but officials have refused all comment on the case...

Illinois records show that the president of the plant is Tahawar Rana, who also owns another company that sells Halal food, prepared according to Muslim dietary laws. He also is listed as the director of the Canadian-based Macro Traders firm, an export and import agency. I wonder if the import/export biz has any connection?

I don't trust Muslims, so my first fleeting reaction is "Good!"
But we've seen large numbers of federal agents descend on people before, with sharpshooters stationed around the perimeter. Makes me wonder about this -- because I don't trust jack-booted thugs either. And I'm not sure that targeting Muslims is a sufficient excuse for tolerating jack-booted thugs.

You mean the JBThugs might just be *practicing* for future raids/interdictions?
Picking on groups that most Americans don't care about?

Moslem targets for this sort of huge raid are perfect for practice. The targets indicated by this administration in its warnings to local law enforcement agencies suggest that the possible real targets of this style of attack will not suspect what they might be but rather applaud them

Really a confusing article:
We learn from an Israeli source that U.S. law officers arrest a bunch of Mexican illegals at an Arab factory in Illinois.
Who was it who said the U.S. ain't the world's policeman?

Yeah, it's the practice aspect that bothers me. We all know that for a very long time our government has been extending its power, and eating into the rights which we are supposed to enjoy. Picking on unpopular groups is one way to advance that effort and have a lot of people nod their head and say "That just makes good sense."
Well, it isn't good sense. It really is "When they came for the Jews, I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew ..."
We're all Jews now.

Looks like a connection to a mosque in Canada.
The owner of the company that was raided is owned by Tahawar Rana who is listed as a contact for Masjid Bilal.
