JERSEY CITY, N.J. -- The dirty looks and shouted slurs started in 1993 after Muslims living here helped plan the bombing of the World Trade Center. They intensified on Sept. 11, 2001, when Muslim hijackers brought down the twin towers just across the Hudson River.

Now a third wave of anti-Muslim sentiment is washing over New Jersey's second-largest city, sparked this time by reports that the murders of an Egyptian Christian man, his wife and two young daughters might have been carried out by Muslims angered over postings the man made in an Internet chat room.

I passed through Journal Square and have been inside the Mosque on Kennedy Blvd on a couple of occaisions. The are area is a powder keg . The media and police may be down playing this to prevent a riot. Tensions were high before this.

Note that the MSM once again is reluctant to call a spade a spade...

You wouldn't believe the answer. There is no attempt to weed out the moderates from the radicals.
Prior to 9-11 if you complained to the FBI you would be a crank.
I personally witnessed a coworker celebrating the Cole bombing.

Really? Maybe the good people who are feeling this 'bias' will attempt to do something about it.

[Jabba the Nutt]

There are the killers and there are additional Muslims who know who the killers are and are not turning them in. It's reasonable to blame the religion, when the religion is used to justify murder.

I don't want to hate Muslims but the sound of their prolonged silence on their evil Muslims brothers actions are too much to ignore....

If you don't condemn them, then you are with them.....

wise up, everyone.....wise up and be prepared....

[pepperdog]

Maybe they aren't biased, maybe they are just very, very wary.

I hope whoever perpetrated this crime is caught and punished to the full extent of the law. And if he(they) turn out to be Muslims, no whining from the Muslim community, please.

We Muslims living in America are getting sick of this crap,"

Quite right! Why don't you do something about it?

Let's see - are Christians flying planes into buildings? Are Christians brutally murdering entire Families in NJ? Are Christians taking hostages and beheading them?

Oh! then where do you think you should direct your outrage, you f**king moron?

[Ol' Sparky]

Anyone involved in a religion whose members murder tens of thouands of innocent people worldwide each year should be looked at with suspicion.

That's the million dollar question!!! Who is allowing these scumbags in the country in the first place. Let me see,
a blind sheik comes to the visa window and someone lets him
through????? Was he pretending to be a pilot too???

[sheik yerbouty]

They should return to their jihadistans.

[sheik yerbouty]

Ah.. but they are forbidden alcohol, yet have a great fondness for whine!

[Polyxene]

Maybe not all muslims are terrorists, but all of the terrorists on your list were muslim -- adding 9/11 to the list. And muslims shouldn't be profiled? Get real! Muslims want to see us ALL dead -- plain and simple!

[Alouette]

dirty looks and shouted slurs

Oh yes, that's so much worse than severed heads and slitted throats.
