Credible Source on 9-11 Muslim Celebrations: FBI ( Stacks of "Happy Muslim Calls" )

One retired FBI agent says Donald Trump's claims of seeing Muslim celebrations following the attacks on 9-11 are absolutely plausible.

Jim Burkett was an assistant special agent in charge with the FBI's office in Boston during 9-11 and afterward. He says during that time the office received tons of phone calls from people who feared more attacks and others reporting suspicious activity.

Many of those calls, said Burkett, came from concerned and angry Americans reporting Muslim's celebrating over the destruction of the twin towers and damage to the Pentagon. The calls were logged, reports were made and there were "stacks and stacks" of them, he said.

Burkett says somebody in the office began labeling them "Happy Muslim Calls." Most of the calls he said were deemed unimportant and the agency didn't see fit to initiate investigations.

But the retired agent says even though video of celebrations following 9-11 is hard to find, he says it means Trump's claims are highly plausible.

“Wonder what the American reaction would have been to the Japanese acting that way on Dec 7”

Maybe that was part of what led to the internment camps?

I remember very well that day. I heard two things that to this day upset me greatly. First a heard a doctor in the McKeesport PA hospital ER was celebrating. I also heard that an apartment building in Greentree PA, just outside of Pittsburgh had a group of a few dozen on the lawn in front of the building dancing and cheering. I have no way to prove it, but I heard about it that day on 9/11 and have no reason to doubt it.

I remember seeing videos or pictures of Muslims celebrating 9/11. Why would I doubt Trump on this?
