Ziad Akir, who heads the Athens Islamic Center at 13 Stewart St., doesn't have "solid evidence" the center is being watched. But no one at the center knows who owns the black SUV that frequently has been seen parked in their lot.
"(One member) claims that there is strange equipment on the car with flashing indicators. I don't know for sure, but it may be a possibility," said Akir speculating on whether someone may be spying on the center.
Some may scoff at Akir's claim as a bout of paranoia during trying times for Arab Americans and those whose faith is Islam. Think again, advises another prominent Ohio Muslim, who contends he has heard of similiar complaints from nearly every mosque in the state.
"We hear of mosques being spied on, being watched, quite frequently," said Jad Humeidan, director of CAIR Ohio. CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) is considered one of Muslim America's most influential non-profits.
He said that the identity of whoever is conducting the surveillance remains a mystery. And if the mystery is nothing more than a perceived -- as opposed to real -- threat, it appears justified for Arab Americans during the post-9/11 era of fear.

I restated it in a more PC way later in the thread.
"Fine, send them back to the mideast and nuke much of it, and chem gas the rest that's not Israel."
Naaa.. Just nuke the whole middle East - Israel included - to complete your whole Nazi death camp analogy.
Note to Admin: The above post is sarcasm aimed at Kornev's 'send them to extermination camps' post made earlier that has no place in a civilized forum.
Yes, I think people have had enough of the politically correct, obsequious, deference to the crying of these groups. Terrible tragedy of course, in Russia. GWB has been right all along- it is a damn war. The sickness of the media is also evident.
My advice to these groups is "pipe down, shut up, drink your coffee, or whatever".

From Canada, across the border - bypass Detroit (too obvious) - shoot straight down I-75 - bypass Toledo (small front group Mosques there) - stop in Perrysburg (build the biggest fortress within 100 miles) - yes, establish your rural magnet in a corn field. It IS a fortress in suburbian/rural OH. I surely hope it is being watched.
You started out by breaking Godwin's law, tsk tsk.
"I restated it in a more PC way later in the thread."
A. To hell with PC.
B. Death camps are reserved for the likes of Hitler and Stalin, not G. W. Bush.
"You started out by breaking Godwin's law, tsk tsk."
Who cares? You're the one calling for genocide, you sociopath.
Quit your bitching, you sound like an islamic baby.
I'm not kidding myself. I've seen many Muslims.
I grew up just two blocks off of Woodward, and my grandparents lived in Dearborn.
I don't like them, as I have said. I trust them only as far as I could spit one through my teeth. I think Fallujah should have been made an example of.
I'm still not going to support death-camps, especially not in this country.
I heard that CAIR is taking up a collection for those children in Russia. NOT.
Good news if true.
Another claims to have sen two mysterious figures in the vicinity, as well.
Any good American male knows to walk behind a woman, to make sure she doesn't go wantering off.
There is only one way to solve the "Islamic" problem and its what the left calls "genocide".
It will be extremely difficult for these subhuman monsters to perpetrate anymore bestial acts if they are all dead.
It will be no loss to the human race and make the world a better place.
Eventuallty the ragheads will get what they have been asking for.
They will all be martyrs.
The only question is how many of us they will take with them before we do what needs to be done.
LMAO
Ziad Akir
What do you expect? After the FIRST World Trade Bombing, the Beirut bombing, the Kenya bombing, The Cole Bombing....etc.etc.
The time for us to turn the other cheek is looooong over.
Just get down on your prayer rug and pray to Allah until you rub a hole in it, thanking him that we AREN'T one of your brother MUSLIMS.
If we were, you wouldn't be worrying about loss of privacy and alot more worrying about losing your life. And the life of your wife...your children ... next of kin...friends...business associates....
But be thankful you're in America so its nothing to lose your HEAD about.
Well said!!!!!
Just saying it doesn't prove it. Give us some rock solid examples of the Muslim population contributing in a positive way to the general American population, not just to other Muslims, of whose charities have, more often than not, been proven to be front groups to redirect contributions of American made monies to terrorist organizations.
Muslims in America have not come here to adapt to and join American culture, but to isolate themselves while living off the fruits of our multicultural, bountiful, and peaceful land. Muslims have even gone so far as to sue for the 'right' of wearing a burqa, also called chador, while being photographed for a driving license, and while driving.
If this is an incorrect 'perception', than why is it that mosques are inaccessible to the general population? Would they feel that they were being spied upon if they were used to having many people visit, and being open to the public? Or do they feel that they are being spied upon because they do have something to hide from America's general population?
