Islam's on trial. Innocent victims are guilty of being Muslims in America at the wrong time. They're maliciously vilified, targeted, and persecuted.
City University of New York School of Law's CLEAR project addresses "unmet legal needs of Muslim, Arab, South Asian, and other communities." It does so in the greater New York area.
Of particular importance are issues relating to national security and counterterrorism. American Muslims are unfairly treated.
CLEAR explained. Its new report is titled " Mapping Muslims: NYPD Spying and Its Impact on American Muslims ." Muslim civil liberties groups prepared it.
They include the Muslim American Civil Liberties Coalition, Creating Law Enforcement Accountability and Responsibility, and Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund.
Their work is comprehensive, revealing and damning. Covert spying is official NYPD policy. It's ongoing throughout the Northeast. It "spread outrage throughout the nation." It did for good reason.
Muslims are America's enemy of choice. They're vilified for praying to the wrong God. They're considered fifth column threats unjustly. They're targeted, victimized and persecuted. Many are prosecuted and imprisoned. They languish in gulag hell.
Since 2002, NYPD conducted lawless spying. It monitors American Muslims throughout the Northeast. It spies on communities, places of worship, and nonviolent organizations.
