"...that black americans who change their religion should be investigated by the FBI ?" There was
far more to it than that.
First, from the article....."Muhammad was reportedly already under investigation by the FBI joint terrorism task force after he traveled to Yemen and was arrested there for using a Somali passport."
Second, the Obama administration hasn't issued a statement about this.
Here's my issue....the general media did everything possible to try to torch McCain and Palin. OK, fair enough, McCain was a flawed candidate and Palin is really an amateur. But they've given Obama A FREE RIDE.
No one in the major media wants to talk about how the Obama administration had no issue back in early April (as Tracy stated) investigating ex-military people who might feel disgruntled enough to instigate domestic violence (and reportedly going as far as listening for verbal statements that suggest violence)
but calls off investigations on an individual who posed a clear threat, for fear of political repurcussions. Dept of Homeland Security officially issued a document that lumped a ton of so-called "right-wng" extremists as potential domestic terrorists.
But when it comes to doing the same thing with those who represent the ideologies of those he's trying to kiss up to, he leaves them alone.
I'm going to take this even further - Obama is certainly responsible, as this occured under his adminstration. If he specificially executed this order, this is an actionable offense...
HE SHOULD BE EXPOSED AND IMPEACHED. If a Republican did this, with the underlying pretext of trying to gain alliance with a specific religion, he'd be TORCHED.
Defending one's country and taking action is now viewed as "war-mongering".
