Charles Johnson decided to post another "Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid" item, this time from Tucson, AZ. The problem is, there's no problem at all. The report about Iraqis possibly sneaking into this country to attack a military base in Sierra Vista is 6 months old AND the FBI issued the following disclaimer:
"There is no information to state this is a credible threat. We remind people to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity to their local authorities."

Hey come on, what else do you expect from a tabloid-esque blog?
On a more serious note, why the hell would this report be issued in the first place if no information exists to support it?
"Oh my God, my house is on the same planet as terrorists, who knows when they'll be coming to get me!!" *tremble*
People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks.
You would think Charles would grasp this simple concept...but sadly, no. Instead he continues calling others hate-mongers while mongering hate non-stop himself.
But but but, don't you see?! The fact that no credible evidence of any nefarious plot exists, PROVES how sneaky and duplicitous teh Islamonazis really are!!!!1
up to now, there was no single real threat from iraqis, but still iraqis under constant suspicion , thanks to all this exaggerated reporting. and they tell you the media, well blogs also create stir and scares. at least media will refrain after receiving many complaints, opposite to blogs.
it was unfortunate from charles to post such article.

Charles isn't really interested in promoting healthier relations with Iraqi Muslims, or with any Muslims for that matter.
Is it irresponsible to speculate?--it would be irresponsible not to.
There's a rather broad line between speculation and fearmongering.
Can you imagine the uproar at LGF if Charles suddenly started posting things like, "how can we best solve the problem of terrorism without alienating every single Muslim on the face of the planet?"
Just imagining Babbazee's reaction makes me smile.

a BETTER question would be how can the MUSLIMS solve the problem of terrorism within their ranks. I dont see how WE (if you mean the west or non-muslims) can solve it, at best we can decide how we want to respond to it.

Agreed. I was using a wellworn phrase that mocks these people:

HMMM,the FBI should say yeah thers a threat ......that would be counter productive ....Once the liberal media and blogs like this got ahold of the story .....all comments approved ....How PC of you !there is ALWAYS 2 sides to an argument Keep up the groupthink ! alaskan hero !
