All those Muslims dancing and laughing in the streets of Paterson, Brooklyn and Chicago were just celebrating their birthdays, which all happened to fall on September 11th.

Please cite your source for this information. I live in the Chicago area and there has been no mention of it here. Credible sources please.

I have a friend in Hoboken who drives through Paterson on his way to and from work; this is someone I trust; and he told me on 9/14 that there were crowds of Arabs celebrating on the streets of Paterson on the afternoon of 9/11. I have heard similar stories that I tend to dismiss, but I believe this one.

This was the same neighborhood that sheltered a number of the 1993 WTC bombing conspirators. Omar Abdul Rahman's mosque was there, IIRC.

Your guess is as good as mine why these things were not given much coverage in the media after the first week. For one thing, newscrews were otherwise occupied on 9/11. For another, just look at the furor that resulted when a few scenes of celebrations overseas were shown. It just didn't "suit" certain people to have the truth shown. That doesn't mean these local events did not happen.
