AG Eric Holder and Obama Pledge To Protect American Muslims
DOJ issues statement “to protect American Muslims;” silent on protecting Americans from jihadists
It’s a statement “to protect American Muslims.”
"Statement of Attorney General Eric Holder on Department of Justice’s Outreach and Enforcement Efforts to Protect American Muslims
Thursday, June 4, 2009
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder released the following statement relating to President Obama’s historic speech today in Cairo, Egypt:
“The President’s pledge for a new beginning between the United States and the Muslim community takes root here in the Justice Department where we are committed to using criminal and civil rights laws to protect Muslim Americans. A top priority of this Justice Department is a return to robust civil rights enforcement and outreach in defending religious freedoms and other fundamental rights of all of our fellow citizens in the workplace, in the housing market, in our schools and in the voting booth.
“There are those who will continue to want to divide by fear - to pit our national security against our civil liberties - but that is a false choice. We have a solemn responsibility to protect our people while we also protect our principles.”
Meanwhile, this:
The FBI confirmed Wednesday it was investigating the possibility an Atlanta Jewish site was among other planned targets of a Muslim convert accused of killing a soldier outside a Conway, Ark., recruiting center this week.
Stephen Emmett, spokesman for the Atlanta FBI office, said the investigation into the shooting turned up evidence to suggest Abdulhakim Muhammad, 23, of Little Rock, had plans for a “Jewish entity” in Atlanta. The Associated Press reported memos from the investigation showed Little Rock, as well as New York, Philadelphia, Louisville, Ky., and Memphis, were also on his list.
Emmett declined to say what specific site in Atlanta might have been in Muhammad’s plans, but “precautions were taken [in Atlanta] because of the serious nature of the Little Rock” shooting.
And this:
“The man accused of fatally shooting a soldier outside a recruiting center begged for FBI agents to free him from a Yemeni jail where he was ‘radicalized’ by Islamic terrorists, his lawyer told The Associated Press on Thursday. Lawyer Jim Hensley described Abdulhakim Muhammad as an impressionable youth driven to public service in an impoverished Middle Eastern country. But teachings by ‘hardened’ terrorists in Yemen and experiences with Afghan child refugees who were missing limbs drove him to become someone his parents didn’t recognize, Hensley said.”
And one more very interesting post you should read: An investigation by Blue Collar Republican into the Mephis mosque and imam under which the Arkansas jihadi shooter Abdulhakim Muhammad studied/worshiped.
And this one very important: Blue Collar Republican blog

Wild Thing's comment.......
Amazing. The racist/marxist/islamists are in control. It is more important to them to protect the American Muslims then making a grand sweep of protecting ALL Americans first of all and forget about Holder and Obama wanting to protect the NON Muslim Americans from terrorist attacks. How much more obvious do they have to be.
"...the Justice Department where we are committed to using criminal and civil rights laws to protect Muslim Americans"
... just damn ...
It's so nice to hear how the Obama Administration has its priorities in the right place.....NOT!
It took 3 days before Obama could even make a statement about the terrorist attack in Little Rock, the murder of a military recruiter by a jihadist on US soil at the recruiting center. And not only that but as of this morning I still do not see the statement listed at the White House website. So it was just a throw away statement and instead there are many statements about the late term abortion jerk being killed.
I hate being negative but when it comes to Obama and his people it is negative, negative against our country. I will never forgive those who voted for Obama and who put this blight upon our country.
The war this administration is trying to start will be everything except civil.

Then they better make sure they protect the rights of ALL religions, including those that are not mainstream. Additionally, if a radical muslim says that it is in their beliefs to kill infadels, and they do such an act, are they entited to immunity because of their religion?
What's next? Teaching about respecting Muslim religion in government mandated classes, so we can "understand" them and be more sensitive to their needs? Sorry, not interested.
The one thing that bothers me with all of this is Obama using one of the US quotes when he was in Egypt talking about America and Muslims, "E Pluribu unum", which means "Out of many, one". Looking at the context of his speech, is Obama implying that "Out of many religions, there is one?" I can not find a reasonable justification, such as the real meaning of the phrase, "Out of many people, one nation", or "Out of many nations (immigration), one nation" in his speech.
And, again, when was the last time Obama went to church? Instead, this weekend, again, we find him traveling on the taxpayers dime, treating his family to a trip in Paris, when his ass should be in the United States attending to OUR country's needs, and not pimping overseas.

I agree Steele. Once the muzzies have there Islamist rights we will be on a faster track to lose ours than we are now. They have the rights of everyone else, but they abuse those rights for the destruction of their host country.

This is why there is an ammunition and gun run. Fifty two % of the voters may be permanently mind locked in Disneyland, but there is a large number of Americans who see through the facade of Obama's strategy. He is in full support of the cancer of islam and they are now motivated. I expect they will pull a lot of stunts here in America and there will eventually be a major confrontation with them.

My opinion is this, bacon is my friend, and so is bacon fat. (Oooo.. did I go too far on that one?) ;D
My "religious" beliefs are not mainstream, and some would even consider them well... not Christian or even anti-Christian however, my opinion is that everyone is entitled to their own beliefs, as long as you don't try to shove it down my throat, preach to me and tell me my beliefs are wrong and try to "save" or "convert" me.
I am sorry, I can not listen to the rantings of a man who married an 8 year old wife, and a religion that believes in marrying children WAAAYYY under the age of consent. Here in the United States, that is illegal and sex with such a child is called stautory rape. How is this little fact of law here in the US going to be "discarded" for Muslims?
Peace is good, war is sometimes needed, but pedophiles are hell-bound.

Steele, ( about your first comment)
Obama is treading on very dangerous
ground. He is mixing religion and the many
various beliefs of all citizens with
government. If he keeps this up it will
backfire especially when government will
insist on teaching Islam in all schools
and brainwashing the children....they
they have taken prayer out of school
years ago. He can't have it both ways.
The thing with Islam too is they the so
called moderate Muslims say it is about
peace, but they are hand picking things
out of their Islamic faith and not using
all the quotes of how Muhammed wanted all
the people of the book ( Jews and Christians)
killed.

Tom, I agree so much. What you said
too in another comment that this is only
the beginning, I agree. We are going to
start to see a lot of terrorist attacks.
And Obama only wants to protect his
Muslims.

Steele, LOL I love bacon.
After 9-11 happened I read a lot about Islam
and Muhammad and like you said, he was a
pure evil and mentally sick, a thief, rapist,
and the list is very long all the things
about him.Their ALLAH they say is God, he is
not he was a moon god. Fine if they want to
worship a moon god but they need to be
honest about it and say what it is.
I don't want anyone pushing their beliefs
on me either I agree Steele. As for me
I am a Christian and at the same time I
don't want to push my own beliefs on any
other person either. Obama I really think
wants to do this exact thing. Little by
little he will just a gut feeling I have.
I sure don't want Islam pushed on me. I
will fight that till my last breath.
