MINNEAPOLIS - The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is blasting two high-profile leaders in the metro Somali community as anti-Muslim ahead of a conference with police departments to discuss Somali culture -- and the public spat is testing the limits of tolerance.
The controversial claim comes from a group that is no stranger to controversy itself, and the conflict centers over who speaks for the local Somali community, which is a complicated mesh of 15 separate groups with deep cultural and religious divides.
"I'm not anti-Muslim," said Omar Jamal. "I'm anti-Islamic terrorism."
Omar Jamal and Abdi Bihi were the first to blow the whistle on the effort to recruit Minnesotan Somalis for terrorism in Somalia. Three of the young men who disappeared from Minneapolis would later become suicide bombers in Kenya and Somalia for the terror group al-Shabaab.
That stance earned them a seat on CAIR's bad side, and the group recently sent a letter attacking both men's education and experience while asking local police departments to boycott a Thursday conference where the two will be keynote speakers.

"I'm not anti-Muslim," said Omar Jamal. "I'm anti-Islamic terrorism."

"I'm not anti-Muslim," said Omar Jamal. "I'm anti-Islamic terrorism." That seems contradictory. Jihad,which we perversely call Terrorism, is inherent in Islam. Read the Book.

I find it simply amazing that any law enforcement agency is talking with CAIR at all. They should be arresting everyone of the ba$tards and throwing them into Gitmo. They are terrorists or terrorist supporters and enablers.

"In a way, that invitation in light of the controversy is ironic because up until a few years ago, the FBI wouldn't even have contact with CAIR because it was considered by some to be a front for Hamas -- and in regards to the radicalization of young Minnesota men, the group's has never taken a public stance.

We don’t need Samali Communities in this country.
If you don’t come to America to be American, GTF out.
If you want to live in Samalia Go back to Samalia.
The same for Hispanic communities . When you come to America be American.

Of course, it couldn’t be that muzzies are murdering Somalis in their homeland, could it? Thant just may make it difficult to give them hugs here.

For CAIR to call people, including Muslims “anti-Muslim” is a call to murder these two.
