FBI Wary of Investigating Extremist Muslim Leaders

Fearing charges of religious persecution, the FBI for years has hesitated to investigate radical Islamic clerics in the United States despite evidence that their mosques have been used to recruit and fund suspected terrorists, present and former law enforcement officials said.

Even after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, "the veil of religion that has been draped over mosques . . . will be tough to move off," an FBI official said last week. "The Arab American community can become enraged and beat on the FBI."

I guess in the view of the FBI, it is far better to investigate and harass certain Christian faiths comprised of American citizens than do the same to fanatical Muslim sects heavily comprised of foreigners that harbor terrorists. This kind of insanity is another reason why we are in the mess we are.
