Muslims angered by FBI radiation checks at mosques [Right to bear nuclear bombs under attack]

WASHINGTON — Federal law-enforcement officials said Friday that FBI agents have secretly monitored radiation levels at Islamic mosques, businesses and homes for several years in large cities to determine whether nuclear or chemical bombs were being assembled.

The officials said no suspicious radiation levels have been found.

The disclosure, after the revelation last week that the government has secretly spied on U.S. citizens without court permission, angered a number of U.S. Muslim leaders. They cited a Supreme Court ruling three months before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in which the justices rejected such government monitoring.

"All Americans should be concerned about the apparent trend toward a two-tiered system of justice, with full rights for most citizens and another diminished set for Muslims," said Nihad Award, an official of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation's largest Muslim civil-liberties group.

But Justice Department officials said the monitoring was lawful. They said that investigators used special equipment to gauge radiation levels at homes, warehouses and religious centers of Muslim groups, and that the testing was done in or near parking lots and driveways, areas the government views as public property.

They said the testing was still taking place. It was first reported Friday by U.S. News & World Report...

Is there a law which says that the government cannot check for radiation?

Aren't most of those suppose to be blue states?

I lost that map of the red and blue states.  So, I can't say for sure if the states with the Mosque's are mostly Libs or what.

Just pretend we're searching for cigarette smoke and the liberals will be fine with it.

LOL!

I guess, in order to avoid any bias or profiling, radiation levels have to be monitored near the churches. Amish villages also should be watched.

Your post was pretty unclear.

Go ahead, tell us how you REALLY feel. ;-)

There is a small possibility that this was leaked to get the bad guys to move something or some one.

From Sun Tzu

All warfare is based on deception.

When capable feign incapacity, when active, feign inactivity.

When near make it appear that you are far away, when far away make it appear that you are near.

Offer the enemy bait to lure him; feign disorder and strike him.

We have the last point down to a science, let us hope it is a tactic and not the reality.
