COLUMBUS, 18 March 2008 The FBI was interrogated for a change yesterday by members of the Muslim community at an event sponsored by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) at the Sunrise Academy in Columbus.
Officials engaged in the discourse as part of the FBIs so-called Community Relations Executive Seminar Training (CREST) program, which aims to improve relations with minority groups. Scheduled speakers at the event were special agents Kevin Bennett, Steve Flowers and Eric Thomas. The No. 1 concern in the audience was related to federal wiretapping, other forms of privacy invasion and the profiling of Muslims.

Still, he conceded that in the shadow of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the FBI views Islamic terrorist groups as the biggest threat to national security ands the groups most likely to instigate a massive terrorist act inside the United States.
Hind, a Saudi attendee wanted to know why the media singles out Muslims and Middle Easterners as terrorists and extremists and never used those terms for domestic terrorists. Flowers replied that the media do this because it is sensationalism to use language like that.
The head of CAIR in Ohio, Asma Mobin-uddin, tried to calm the attendees when emotions ran high and questions got more heated. She told the FBI agents that this was an indication of the frustrations that the Muslims felt.
Many are frustrated because they have filed immigration for their family members but because some people have a certain name, it seems their background checks take much longer, she said.
She also said that the Muslims also felt that they were singled out and targeted by the media. They were always nicknamed and labeled terrorists, extremists.

No, it's because comparatively speaking there are almost NO domestic terrorists inside the U.S. except Muslim sleeper cells and the occasional ELF/PETA/Code Pink fanatics.
CAIR can GTFO my country.
Because Muslim have flown planes in to our buildings and cut peoples heads off and stated their goal is to bring down America.
Go pork a pig.
It is simple...
Muslims who want to lose this cloud over their head need to speak out against and out the radicalism in their religion...
But we know they won’t do that now don’t we?...
You are where you are in life because you put yourself there...
Funny, I don’t recall them being available for interrogation by the KKK or the American NAZI Party.
This seems to be a first amendment violation. Some religions are more equal than others. The ACLU should investigate.
Apparently, the invitations were lost in the mail.

Maybe...just maybe...possibly...perhaps, this could be because the great majority of terrorist activity afoot in the world, today, is sponsored, supported, encouraged and funded by ISLAM...
There is a solution to your problem, though. Leave. Save the air fare and rejoin the family, elsewhere.
We should return the favor and grill a few Muslims. I understand they’re quite tasty wrapped in bacon.
That's as far as I got.
Did they also blow up buildings and chop off heads...you know, FOR A CHANGE?
Bwahahahaha! Other than being a decent toothpaste, this is total BS.

So true, but try telling that to Jerimiah Wright.
I think the post-baby boomers are WORSE! They have NO context.
You are so right about not procreating - they don’t want to be inconvenienced with children....very immature people.
No thanks... I got better things to do than end up being called a cracker... ;)
