Muslims Grill FBI Agents on Key Issues

Yes, that is the actual headline of the story in the Arab News today. And who was doing the grilling? Why none other then our good friends from CAIR.
The FBI was interrogated for a change yesterday by members of the Muslim community at an event sponsored by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) at the Sunrise Academy in Columbus.
How pathetic is this? Of course it is a gubmint program complete with acronyms and everything.
Officials engaged in the discourse as part of the FBI’s so-called Community Relations Executive Seminar Training (CREST) program, which aims to improve relations with minority groups.

Scheduled speakers at the event were special agents Kevin Bennett, Steve Flowers and Eric Thomas. The No. 1 concern in the audience was related to federal wiretapping, other forms of privacy invasion and the profiling of Muslims.
Do you feel the outrage? Can you sense the seething? Isn't the Islamophobia palpable?
Hind, a Saudi attendee wanted to know why the media singles out Muslims and Middle Easterners as “terrorists and extremists” and never used those terms for domestic terrorists.
Actually, a domestic act of terrorism is more likely to get that name applied to it then any of the acts carried out by the various "insurgents", "supporters", "militants", and what ever other euphemism the mass market media wish to apply to those followers of a certain religion who seem to spontaneously explode in bright sunlight.
