DETROIT (AP) -- A Michigan Muslim organization said Thursday it has asked U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate complaints alleging the FBI is asking followers of the faith to spy on Islamic leaders and congregations.

The Council of Islamic Organizations of Michigan sent a letter last week to Holder after mosques and other groups reported members of the community have been approached to monitor people coming to mosques and donations they make.

Sandra Berchtold, a spokeswoman in the FBI's Detroit office, had no immediate comment.

Dawud Walid, executive director of the Michigan chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said such complaints aren't new, but concerns grew after a recent revelation the FBI planted a spy in a Southern California mosque.

So the question is, to whom do you serve, the Islamic empire or the United States of America?

If the Islam of terorrists is NOT the Islam of the peaceful muslims, why not OUT the terrorist muslims?

[manc]

please don’t tell me the only plan for the FBI to get in on the inside of the muslims community and find out what is going on is to go door to door, or shop t shop asking if they can spy

Maybe they have a better thing to do like spy and do reports on those extremists who have right wing views

"If there was a specific imam who they felt was telling people to support Osama bin Laden, that's a different story — we wouldn't have a problem with that," he said. "Community members would be the first people to report to federal law enforcement if such things were being said."

Yeah, right.

Don’t worry to much. They are expending their effort on US Armed Forces veterans, 2nd amendment supporters, anti-abortion activists, anti-illegal-immigration activists, 10th amendment supporters and the such.

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.”
- CAIR chairman, Omar M. Ahmad, July 1998

“Once we are here, our mission in this country is to change it. There is no way for Muslims to be violent in America, no way. We have other means to do it.”
- Abdulrahman Alamoudi, 1996 at an Islamic conference in Chicago

Spying on Muslims, where do I sign up?

[freekitty]

Exactly

The FBI should be investigated only if they aren't trying to plant spies in mosques. Everything is getting turned upside down and bass-ackwards in this country....it's like the Screwtape Letters coming to life.

...barring that, the statement, "You're either with us, or you're against us" comes to mind (in fact it comes to mind every time I hear a CNN CIO/CAIR apologist). Nutroots all! Muzzies in the USA need to read up on the 'pendulum effect'!! Today Tea Parties, Tomorrow, Necktie Parties.... (note to self, this is really cathartic, and beats acting out)

Unrelated, but sort of related. My brother is doing some kind of “pre-census” canvassing for Big Government.

Ok, so he (and thousands of others) goes up to EVERY house in his area. They have this strange GPS hand-held thing that they punch the address to the co-ordinates.

Now why do they have to do this if it’s all on the GPS to begin with? I wonder what the hand-held “GPS” thing is.

Anyone else hear about this and any ideas what they are doing?

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

At least they are asking. Back in LaLa land they would be Forced to spy.

I agree, tea parties yesterday were the first shots across the bow.

According to liberals if you paint all Muslims as being Osama bin Laden, you're a hater.

If you paint all blacks at Willie Horton, you're a racist.

But if you paint all conservatives as Timothy McVeigh, you're an enlightened liberal?

Liberals are the narrow minded bigots.

The Left is Stalinist. They are intellectually dishonest. They are after absolute power by any means necessary.

Situational ethics permit them to lie to you about justifications to make you feel better.

It isn’t hypocrisy. It is Stalinist.

Welcome to the era of America’s Pravda Media.

Well put.
