Anti-Muslim?

[t3a]

WASHINGTON - Anti-Muslim Internet traffic and radio broadcasts are fueling an atmosphere of hate and contributing to increased discrimination, the Council on American-Islamic Relations said Wednesday.

Hate crimes against Muslims rose 52 percent to 141 last year compared with 2003, and civil rights violations reported to the council jumped 49 percent to 1,522.

"Whenever there is a beheading or act of terrorism overseas that involves Muslims, we see a rise in reported incidents here," said Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the council.

The trend is toward "rising Islamophobic rhetoric in American society," said Arsalan Iftikhar, the council's legal director.

The organization has become so concerned about anti-Muslim talk that it has launched an awareness campaign so people can contact advertisers about their concerns and file complaints with the Federal Communications Commission.

It's rather easy to be cynical or negative when it comes to politics and politicians, wasteful government spending, and corruption.

The current administration provides plenty that fits in with the statement above.

Doc just sees things more as how they really are, and unlike the Bushie backers, he doesn't think gunpowder will disappear from Iraq in a week and be replaced with flowers and John Lennon songs.

Tough to be reality challenged if you actually look at the numbers and how long we've been over there......and some people still think its all going to end over there by lunchtime tomorrow.

But hey, It's only your grandkids future, just bury them deeper.
