The Council on American Islamic Relations has criticized the book as one-sided, only portraying Muslims as either “extremists” or “terrorists. ”

Bell was asked to explain the absence of patriotic Muslim Americans in the book who were also opposed to the attacks. Publisher Calls FBI Over Muslim Backlash From 9/11 Coloring Book

“Well, I don’t know, I mean this is what our research showed us,” Bell said, “Every time we mention one of the hijackers we call them what they are. And that’s what parents wanted. Radical, Islamic, Muslim Extremists. And every time we mention one of the hijackers like the three guys that drove the plane into the Pentagon, there’s nothing else you can call them. I mean, what do think, they’re having a bad hair day?”

The book has been selling briskly, so fast that Bell said he had no extra copies for reporters to take with them today. Bell declined to disclose how many copies have sold, except to say “a lot.”

When asked about whether he has had any threats because of the book, Bell stopped short of saying he had.

“That’s our C.O.O., ” Bell said, pointing to a co-worker, “He’s talked to the Clayton police department, a sergeant at the Clayton police department and the FBI, regarding your question. That’s the answer to your question. And so, it’s really good to be aware of your surroundings. We’ll put it that way.

The book features images of Osama Bin Laden and Islamic terrorists. It also shows American citizens upset by the attacks, including a woman with a cross around her neck. But it shows no Muslim Americans mourning the attacks.

So in other words, it's an accurate representation.

BTW folks, learn the truth about Islam, the stuff they don't want you to know!

But the politicians (both sides) keep telling us how peaceful islam is and that muslims in American are good citizens and want to get along with everybody. BS

Wish there was a way to kick every single muslim out of America.

Because they didn't. They danced and partied in the streets. Why lie to the kids?

All the more reason for them to include a page of that fat "Palestinian" bich swirling around and trilling.

I bet 0 bummer and the wookie were even cheering the events of 9/11. Maybe not outwardly, but that is what those two want - knock down America a notch or two.

Everyone knows that Islam is responsible for the 911 attacks.

When the so-called mainstream muzzies start doing something about the radical muzzies, then I might pay attention to their “bad American” chants.

Until then, if you don’t like America then go back to where you came from.

I would ask CAIR for the names of real Muslims who came out to unequivocally condemn the attacks.

By that I mean no nonsense like:

"Obviously the attacks are a tragedy, but the American policy of intervention brings these things out in the poor Islamic people of the world."

There was a group of Muslims in America that stood up and condemned the 9/11 attacks. I never heard much more about them after a small flurry of news about them.

That is a problem.
