If you believe the hype, the United States has a valu able new ally in the War on Terror: American Muslim leaders. Alas, it's called "hype" for a reason.
Yes, some American Muslim groups are making a show of undertaking a sincere campaign to oppose terror, purge jihadis, help disrupt networks and thwart plots.
At Christmas Day bomber Umar Abdulmutallab's arraignment this month, some 50 Muslims rallied outside the court, carrying placards that read "Not in the Name of Islam," chanting "We are Americans" and waving US flags. Majed Moughni, who organized the protest, vowed to "take our religion back" from terrorists like Abdulmutallab.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, a leading American Muslim group, (coincidentally?) uses almost verbatim language in its "anti-terror" campaigns. (Check out CAIR's Web site -- its anti-extremism rhetoric could've been written by Dick Cheney.)

“I know of no investigations” in which Muslims have been helpful, Rep. Peter King (R-LI), the ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee, tells me.
Imagine that?
Muzzies being “helpful” to Federal investigations. Didn’t the cAIR recently instruct it’s muzzie brethren to approach them first with information to see if it was relevant to an investigation, and they would forward it to the Fed’s (after they warned the terrorists/good muzzies of the info)?
Wouldn’t that make them complicit in any further investigations if evidence was withheld by their terrorist supporting group?
Just wondering....
