But what's embarrassing is that this is transparently political ass-covering on the part of the FBI. There aren't any religious freedom issues here. They just don't want to be denounced by "Arab-Americans."

This is like the article in the Wash. Post or the Times yesterday, in which an unnamed FBI official said the High Alert warning was issued so that the gov wouldn't be "blamed" if something does occur.

Is the Justice Dept. run by a bunch of tort lawyers???

Disgusting behavior.
