FALLS CHURCH, Va. — A Muslim civil rights group on Friday asked the FBI to investigate a series of threatening posts on an anti-Islam website.
The threats posted by visitors to the Bare Naked Islam website include a post from one person who urges Christians to “kill every Muslim twice” and mentions that he routinely drives by a specific northern Virginia mosque. Another recommends blowing up mosques.
In making the request, Council for American-Islamic Relations spokesman Ibrahim Hooper said the Internet is replete with hateful commentary about Muslims. But he said these comments differ because they routinely contain explicit calls for violence.
“The Internet is a cesspool of bigoted speech, but this is something else entirely,” Hooper said.
The Bare Naked Islam site depicts flames superimposed over a mosque and declares: “It isn’t Islamophobia when they really ARE trying to kill you.” In an email, the site’s author, who identified herself as a New York City resident named Bonni, said she tries to delete comments that call for genocide against Muslims. But she said she does not consider a threat to be explicit unless it targets a specific individual.
“Wishing for all mosques to be blown up is not a threat in my opinion. Certainly not any different than you see all over the signs at Occupy Wall Street where they call for the killing of all bankers and Jews. Nobody stops them and the media defend those threats as Free Speech...
Yes, Bonnie but do you really think anyone in power will see the hypocrisy of their own words?

ONE person threatens to kill Muslims, and CAIR comes unglued.
Islam in general and individual Muslims living in the United States (and throughout the world), tell us on a daily basis that their sole mission in life is to destroy all non believers and Western civilization. Than they actually carry out their threats of violence and mayhem, but somehow that murderous rage is ALWAYS overlooked. Overlooked by Muslims, overlooked by Islam, and overlooked by our own government.
The Blind Sheik once said in NYC to an adoring crowd of his supporters, that that Islam would destroy America by using our own laws against us. They are doing a good job.
So a nut said "Islam would destroy America by using our own laws against us". But Jewish supremacists like the Anti-Defamation League and AIPAC are actually doing it. They use democracy and the media to manipulate America into supporting Israel, rather than taking a neutral position on Middle East conflicts.
Christian woman - where the hell did you 'live under Shariah' anyway?
