Islamic Center Burned, Defaced in Tennessee
2/10/08
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) yesterday called on the FBI and Tennessee law enforcement authorities to investigate a fire and hate graffiti at a mosque in that state as a possible bias-motivated crime.
An official of the Islamic Center of Columbia told CAIR that the fire was discovered Saturday morning and "pretty much destroyed" the mosque. Several Nazi swastikas and the phrases "white power" and "we run the world" were sprayed on the outside walls of the mosque. The center had been clearly identified as a mosque. Local, state and federal investigators are at the scene.
The Islamic Center of Columbia is located about 45 minutes south of Nashville, Tenn.

“Poison cake kills Iraqi children”
By Jim Muir
BBC News, Baghdad
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The UK government has flown antidote medicine to the Middle East after some Iraqis became seriously ill from eating cakes laced with the poison thallium.
Two of the victims, both children, died after eating cake delivered to a military club in Baghdad.
Others are being treated in hospital in the Jordanian capital, Amman.
It is the first time the deadly toxin has been used since the downfall of Saddam Hussein, whose regime used it to kill its opponents.
At least two of the poison victims, the secretary of the Iraqi air force club and his daughter, are critically ill in Amman.
They and half-a-dozen other patients suffering from thallium poisoning were flown from Baghdad to Amman as the necessary treatments and antidotes were not available in Iraq.
Britain responded to a request for help from the World Health Organization and medication was flown out.”
