SPLC’s and CAIR’s involvement does stink. I don’t think we really know what these Hutaree people were doing. The allegation is that they were actively plotting to murder a police officer and then detonate a bomb at his funeral. We’ll see if they have enough evidence to support that allegation - that’s what trials are for.

I don’t know if those Islamic training camps involve actual terrorist plots, or, if they do, whether the feds know about them. I have a hard time believing that they’d look the other way if they did know, though. While I do know that American Islamic groups preach a lot of vile stuff, that’s not enough to constitute a criminal conspiracy. If there was evidence of an actual conspiracy or plot, I doubt even a hard-core leftist prosecutor would leave it alone.

Most federal prosecutors have political ambitions; that’s the nature of the job and the way they’re appointed. While I don’t doubt that some, if not many, sympathize with the likes of CAIR and the SPLC, their own careers come first. I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, being the guy who foiled a terrorist plot looks a hell of a lot better on your resume than being the guy who let a terrorist attack happen. If there’s a high-profile crime they think they can get a conviction on, they’re going to prosecute it.

I disagree with a couple of the things you’ve said.

1. The feds know about the Islamic training camps. How can I, a nonentity, know about them, and the feds not know? Come on.

2. Prosecutors are indeed politically motivated, just as juddges, defense attorneys and juries. To say they mostly are not and only career minded is a feeble excuse. And career minded includes politically minded.

Hard core leftist prosecuters or for instant AG Holder are stinking political animals who will do anything to further the leftist agenda and that includes coddling Muslim terrorists, breaking the law themselves, and lying whenever they get a chance.

It’s hard to believe you believe your own comments.
