FBI launches probe on hate fliers
The FBI wants to know who is responsible for threatening fliers found in several Ada County neighborhoods and business districts.
The message is causing concern in Boise's Muslim community.
The fliers found in west Boise and Meridian earlier this month claim to be written by a Muslim angry with Americans -- but members of Boise's Muslim community say the message is poorly written -- and not believable.
They say the papers appear to be pieces of propaganda aimed at dividing cultures.
Jameel Almudahf is a Muslim who moved to the United States from Iraq more than a decade ago. He says these fliers -- with Arabic messages urging Muslims to unite -- are misleading.
“I think this is propaganda. That's it,” Almudahfr said. “This is not the picture of Islam. This is not the way to present Islam.”
The words read "death to America -- death to Israel" -- with images of president bush and al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden -- a man mainstream Muslims denounce. (snip)
