This has got to be one of the stupidest article I've ever read. A Muslim was arrested for very good reason and the rest of the Muslims feel in danger? Even though no incidents are cited? It may be a little bit unpleasant for them but blame it on your Jihadist buddy! Not Americans who have done nothing so far.

Why do they always send in stupid female reporters for these ethnic sob stories? And this buffoon calls herself a war correspondent?

One of the hardest parts of being a war correspondent is not being able to relax, said Gwen Florio, national correspondent for the Denver Post. Florio spoke to UM journalism students in February about her assignment to cover the war on terrorism in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Africa.

you are right on target....

I live in Eastern Washington and I can tell you that Pullman-Moscow area is very safe, secure....crime is very low, and if you are looking for a peaceful place to live and teach, you couldn't find a better place, no matter who you are....

it always astounds me the way people "rush" to defend people when in reality they don't have a clue what's going on....

the Muslims in Moscow's sizable international community feel singled out in a way that exceeds even the fearful, suspicious days after Sept. 11, 2001.

Here's a quarter. Call somebody who cares.

This was supposed to be the safe place, the Idaho town that fought the state's stereotype as a haven for white- supremacist and anti-government groups.

"a very moderate place compared to what it could be, being in the middle of nowhere."

Although I'm not from Idaho I am from a town where the tallest building is the grain elevator. I am very offended and intimidated by these stereotypical statements in this hatchet job on a piece of fly-over country. When will a reporterette come to Iowa and do a sobby piece on how I feel threatened because the local rednecks are intolerant of anyone who may look different. (Of course, I am intolerant of those who funnel money to terrorist organizations , but that's just me.) What this Denver doofus doesn't realize is that she's in fly-over country too. I do wonder though why the Muslim's in this community feel threatened. When a white man is arrested in my neighborhood, I don't immediately get my panties in a bunch thinking that its some witch hunt.
