Usual suspects condemn raids on Muslim "charities"
2002-03-25
  • The A.N.S.W.E.R. coalition, which is organizing the April 20 March on Washington against War and Racism, condemns in the strongest terms the US government's raids on over 24 mainstream Muslim organizations and homes in Virginia and Georgia. "These raids have nothing to do with keeping people safe from 'terrorism.' Instead they are part of an ongoing campaign of anti-Arab racism and anti-Muslim bigotry Bush has whipped up in the US to complement his non-stop war policies in the Middle East," said Larry Holmes, a co-director of the International Action Center, one of the members of the A.N.S.W.E.R. coalition.

    "More and more this campaign is beginning to resemble mass hysteria and internment campaigns organized against Japanese Americans during World War II," added Mara Verheyden-Hilliard of the Partnership for Civil Justice LDEF, also with A.N.S.W.E.R. "Already well over 1,200 Middle Eastern people have been the target of mass sweeps and held in isolation and detention centers for over six months. Thousands of others have been interrogated, questioned, and threatened."
    ANSWER is Ramsey Clark's antiantiterror Kiddie Klub. They're so anti-American they're boring. I wonder why Arab News never carries any content from blogs? Hmmm?
