Hate Site Comments Suggest Violence Against Missouri Mosque

    FBI asked to probe posts: 'I suppose dynamite would be considered an
extreme response'

 WASHINGTON, Feb. 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Council on
American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today asked the St. Louis, Mo., office of
the FBI to investigate apparent threats against a local mosque posted on an
anti-Muslim Internet hate site.
 Threatening comments on the Little Green Footballs hate site about a
new minaret being built near that mosque included:

 1. "I suppose dynamite would be considered an extreme response."
 2. "The tower would make a nice target for lots of things... Perhaps
one could start by bombing the thing with pig s**t from a light plane."
 3. "Anyone got some RPGs to coat in pig fat?"
 4. "Would be a shame if it were to be vandalized or destroyed. Just a
shame I tell you....wink wink STL youth."
 "These types of violent comments should not be taken lightly and should
be investigated by state and federal law enforcement authorities," said
CAIR Civil Rights Manager Khadija Athman.
 The apparent threats come following an arson attack on a Tennessee
mosque allegedly by three members of the "Christian Identity" movement and
a fire-bomb attack on a Minnesota Muslim business.

CAIR, as the Council on American-Islamic Relations recently lobbied Congress to help strike its name from a list of co-conspirators in a federal terror case, however, WND has learned the Muslim group's ties to terrorism and extremism are far more extensive than first believed."

a review of federal criminal court documents, past IRS 990 tax records and Federal Election Commission records detailing donor occupations, reveals that Washington-based CAIR has been associated with a disturbing number of convicted terrorists or felons in terrorism probes, as well as suspected terrorists and active targets of terrorism investigations.

"Their offices have been a turnstile for terrorists and their supporters," said one FBI veteran familiar with recent and ongoing cases involving CAIR officials. WND

The Amicus brief filed by CAIR had an interesting post written about it at IPT and the actual membership of about 2,000.

Much has already been written about the amicus brief filed by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in the case against the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF), naming the CT blog (specifically this post) as part of an effort to defame the organization.

From pp. 36-37 of the brief:

Furthermore, the list of unindicted coconspirators has spread and gained notoriety through non-mainstream media, as well, including various "anti-terrorism" weblogs. These weblogs are often extremely biased and inaccurate in their reporting, leading to even more severe damage to the reputation of the unindicted coconspirators.

See, e.g., Feds Name CAIR in Plot to Fund Hamas, WorldNetDaily.com (June 4, 2007) (stating that CAIR, "which brands itself as a mainstream promoter of civil rights has been named with two other prominent U.S. Islamic groups as an ‘unindicted co-conspirator' in a plot to fund the terrorist group Hamas"); HLF Trial Update, Counterterrorismblog.org (June 29, 2007) (writing that "prosecutors have recently named [CAIR] and [ISNA] as Muslim Brotherhood front groups in addition to unindicted co-conspirators" and attaching the unindicted co-conspirator list to the article) (emphasis added)

Clearly, nothing the brief cites in its parenthetical about the post in question is either inaccurate or demonstrably biased. It is simply a recitation of facts and straight reporting.

And speaking of facts, CAIR has a history of refusing to address substantive concerns openly and honestly. Instead, CAIR official routinely obfuscate and deflect the issue at hand in the faint hope that the question or criticism will fade away, and this amicus brief is no exception. For example, on page 10, the brief states:

This negative reaction by the American public can be seen in the decline of membership rates and donations resulting from the government's publicizing of CAIR as an unindicted co-conspirator.
