The release of the film American Sniper has led to an increase in threats against Muslims in the US, according to an Arab-American civil rights group.
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) has written to director Clint Eastwood and star Bradley Cooper.
Their film is based on US soldier Chris Kyle's service in Iraq from 2003-09.
The ADC said a "majority of the violent threats we have seen over the past few days are result of how Arab and Muslims are depicted in American Sniper".
The organisation, which describes itself as the largest Arab civil rights organisation in the US, said it had collected "hundreds of violent messages targeting Arab and Muslim Americans from movie-goers", mainly from Facebook and Twitter.
The letter asked Eastwood and Cooper to speak out against such messages "in an effort to reduce the hateful rhetoric".
"Your visibility, influence, and connection to the film would be a tremendous force in drawing attention to and lessening the serious dangers facing the respective communities," ADC president Samer Khalaf wrote.

These goat-humpers play the ‘blowback card’ more often than blacks play the ‘race card’...
I remember when “Dumbo” was released. Circus violence tripled that year.
Anti muslim = self preservation
Of course any anti-muzzie threats would have absolutely nothing to do with muzzie murder of multitudes of innocents around the world and defiant muzzie immigrant non-assimilation into Western nations containing leftwing dhimmi politicians and leftwing dhimmi media.
anti selmite,,,,anti selmite...threats
I had an idea to create an alternative Five Pillars of Islam. So far I have at least six, and I wonder if I should pare them down, or just go past five. I’d give it an easily searchable title like “The Six True Pillars of Islam.” Or maybe I’ll make it five, with the warning about lying being permitted going last without a number. Anyway, it’s a work in progress, if you have any suggestions.
1. Islam is a war plan. Islam is a hostile, aggressive, predatory conquest strategy for invading and subjugating non-Muslim lands.
2. Islam enslaves all women. Under Sharia Law, Islam enslaves all women as the chattel property of a man. The degree of freedom enjoyed by a woman under Islam is entirely up to the man who owns her, and can be revoked at any time, with the woman held in bondage behind locked doors. Women who resist enslavement can be beaten into submission by their male owner.
3. Islam subjugates Christians and Jews. Under the Sharia, Islam formally treats Christians and Jews as second=class citizens or “dhimmis” who must pay a special tax and abide by harsh and bigoted rules in order to be allowed to live.
4. Islam murders homosexuals, atheists, apostates, “pagans,” and Christians or Jews who will not pay the dhimmi tax and who do not humble themselves before any Muslim.
5. So-called “moderate Muslims” who move to a non-Muslim land maintain self-apartheid and refuse to assimilate, creating Sharia Law no-go-zones, which are the beachheads for future violent jihad when the Muslim invaders have sufficient numbers to go on the attack.
6. Islam permits lying to non-Muslims, especially about the true pillars of Islam, so no Muslim can ever be believed when he denies the above listed truths.
Why is the guy who made the video that “caused Benghazi” still in jail? Why was he put in jail in the first place?
Someone please explain. I fail to see his crime.
7. Islam promotes human-goat intimate relationships.
Now the sheep will be upset to not be included.
Did you see the helo FLIR video of the two taliban taking turns on a goat?
When you’re catching flack...
Oh, what a crock!
Uh, what anti-Muslim threats?
Thank you for that link. Either you post this as a separate link or I will. Everyone needs to watch this.
Thank you again.
I can’t thank you enough for having posted Mr. Gingrich’s great speech on our need to face the Islamic threat.
He was an incredible speaker of the house and we sorely need someone of his caliber and conviction to conservative principles.
This video needs to be seen by everyone.
I will do it now.
Oh, threats like chopping the heads off women you formerly worked with, after being fired for harrassing them, threats like shooting up a military base, threats like murdering Canadian soldiers and attempting to murder MPs, threats like YouTube videos of beheading people...wait, whaaa?
Poor goat.
