FBI Denies Monitoring Targeted Muslims

FBI Denies Monitoring Targeted Muslims

United Press International

The FBI denies it singled out Muslim private sites for radioactivity monitoring, saying it merely was following leads.

Assistant Director John Miller said in a statement that the agency does not target any group based on ethnicity, political or religious belief.

An unnamed federal official told the New York Times that monitoring was done in places that seemed likely terrorist targets.

If you can go drive a car into the parking lot near the shopping mall, we can go there, he said.

1. Too little, too late, and way too NOT FRICKING TRUE!
These FBI guys need to get their stories straight-
they have already ADMITTED that this particular
"radiation monitoring" program involved trespassing
on private property without a legally-required warrant.

Apparently the "unnamed official" who made the asinine 'parking lot' quote
didn't get the memo telling him that this particular cat is already out of the bag.

3. Following leads?
Hmmm, I'd say their leads must be of pretty low quality, given the number of dirty bombs they've turned up. "Unreliable" is one word that comes to mind.
