religious practice is going to engender the suspicion of law enforcement and particularly to american muslim youth the muslim student associations that have been in america for a half century being the predominant vehicle for developing muslim activism. american muslim students are now afraid to even engage in the activities of these student groups in campus that are very important we're hearing of and the all daft uniquely report shows that american muslim teenagers are hearing from their parents to be careful not to engage to fully in a related activities and that not only is a tragedy for those american muslims but it's also not making anybody any safer the n.y.p.d. had of their muslim intelligence division has testified under oath that all of this nonsense all of this waste has not generated a single criminal lead and not only that it's made a commits it's shattered a community which. is just a terrible thing has this program been shut down it has not so the community is still of it absolutely so the n.y.p.d. has taken the position that what it's doing. his legal magic has filed a lawsui

over the past 24 hours, we have heard from many members of the american muslim community. we are here to share their gratitude for your bravery and your commitment to diversity and inclusion. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker. >>> the greatest miscarriage of justice was when jesus was killed. and when they came to the place which is called calvary, there they crucified him and the malefactors, one on the right hand and one on the left. then said jesus, forgive them for they know not what they do. then they parted his raiment and cast lots, isaiah, 750 years before the prophet said this would happen. and the people stood beholding and the rulers also with them derided him saying, he saved others. let him save himself if he be the christ, the chosen of god. and the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar. and saying, if god be the king of the jews, save yourself and a super description also was written over him and letters of greek, latin and hebrew. this is the king of the jews. pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross and the writing was, j

we go out to schools and other convenient tues and basically talk about what it means to be an american muslim. we have other related presentations that we do as well and a few years ago we also launched an interfaith speakers bureau where we take out representatives of the 5 major religions and do the same thing and we model in front of high school and middle school students how the faiths can sit down like we are sitting here today and have conversations about our commonalities but about our differences as well. many of the comments we get from students is, wow, you guys can sit up there and talk because most of the pictures our students see are the ones that have been playing across our screens the last 2 or 3 days. we hope by challenging that we can prevent bullying and harassment we've been seeing here today. >> thank you, amina stacy is manager of communications for the los angeles giants. >> if you think about what our mission is, you probably think our mission is to win the world series every year, which hopefully this year we're on the right track, but actually our mission statement,

worst sort of islamophobia lies at the same time as law enforcement agencies treat the entire american muslim community as a fifth column is just pure. crazy alert with the world cup a year away soccer fans all over are getting their tapes together in a last ditch effort to try and steal a spot on their national team check up the skills of this fifth. the cat lives in japan but we think you could give the american goalie the american military power to run for his money. the republican taliban has offered its budget taliban really television work well the way that the actual taliban works is they keep people stupid women are witches jews are another species westerners are degenerate all of the wise and powerful taliban leaders know what the koran really says because they're the only ones who can read write or tell anybody else what's real. there was a time when the muslim world was in white they invented the writing and math that we use today they were the center of the world for science but then in some places the taliban took over and don't for a minute think it's really all about religion r

they announced the development of the new political party and the prime minister in syria is an american muslim brotherhood and figure . so it was where they were wary about intervening with the muslim brotherhood and take over in damascus which is likely. that is a provocative comment from you. about the white house promoting the muslim brotherhood. >> maybe not in promoting them and they look like they are not interested in dissuading them in every way. you have the united states forking over $250 million to the muslim brotherhood . a number of very sophisticated fighter jets on the way to muslim brotherhood in egypt and we have an administration in the white house and in washington. interested in promoting the american values in the middle east it is advancing the muslim brotherhood and that is what we are seeing in egypt and libya and tunisia and perhaps now in syria. focusing on the number of jobs it will create and the chief washington correspondant is here with the argument, james. >> you may recall the chicago tribune endorsed president obama for election . they said enough dollying and

obama is addressing israeli students in jerusalem and really that's what myself and palestinian american muslim comedian dean obeidallah and i have been doing for the last ten years you know there's a lot of time wasted on blaming or making excuses what we do is we bring together jewish arab muslim and students from all backgrounds together first of foremost to laugh which we all need and to promote a dialogue for a peaceful political resolution is really healthy and conflict and that's what all parties need to do is sit down and talk there's no violent or military solution to the conflict there's no doubt i guess what you're saying it's a great day as well but of course practicalities do come in the way but a promise said in a speech to me just quote this he said it's not fair that a palestinian child cannot grow up in a state of their own of course how does that square with the u.s. senate voting against palestinian statehood kind of add up does it well i wish the u.s. had voted in favor of palestinian state and we should encourage and applaud when the palestinians move towards going through

i wonder if he would ever have the stereo types for african-americans and muslim americans?, you're allowed to make fun of white soutsouthners and christians. they don't need body guards because they live in multi-million dollar homes where there aren't drive-by shootings and rapes in the street. and i note he said body guards don't have a hundred round magazines, who has a hundred round magazine. i don't see the point of banning it if they jam. but a hundred ground magazine would be as tall as i am. do they have 30 round or ten round magazines, which isn't allowed in new york? their position is always, in fairness they think only they should have guns, but which is weird because my opinion is, in fairness, only i should have a gun. so, i think we could come to an agreement. >> sean: a couple of things here, he's a lear jet liberal with a bodyguard. >> like michael bloomberg, dianne feinstein, ed flynn, milwaukee chief of police having lots of problems with his own civil rights violations and he was screaming at the senators, i can't give you that information, we're chasing

administration, in that the white house under bush and obama listened to the wrong voices among american muslimsd other thinly disguised radical groups to keep telling them. everything will be fine. the muslim brotherhood is a peaceful organization, no such thing as violent jihad and they buy into the nonsense because it's the easiest way to go. there's no real effort even on the part of our intelligence community to differentiate between the different strands of muslim societies. there are secularists and moderates and those who aren't violent and then the violent who are slaughtering muslims and cleansing the middle east of christians and minorities, and we wind up pandering to the extremists because we hear the muslim voice ins washington saying, oh, these are good guys. they're not good guys and at some point i would like to hear the obama administration simply admit that there is such a thing as islamist terror. we still can't use that phrase, islamist terror in classified intelligence reports. we're self-deluded and as a result of which we're betraying the faiths the hopes and the trust in

he's not an american muslim. communities against each other including the most recent homophobic ads that are offensive here in the united states. >> this is not the first time ads have gone up. remember controversy over similar ads in new york. your organization sued the new york city transit agency when it tried to ban those ads. the issue first amendment freedom of speech. san francisco's transit authority is in the same boat. listen. >> this is again what we see. attacks, libels and defamation against me. they don't condemn statements in the ad. you have prime minister of turkey saying muslims are our soldiers. the quote i'm using are quotes from the leader of the muslim brotherhood in egypt calling for the death penalty for homosexuals. my calling attention to this makes me homophobic? no. not calling attention to the fight of gays is killing people. attack me but where is the condemnation of the actual statements that he's high profile muslims are making? we don't hear that at all. it's very interesting. it

it's still going on and that, you know, certainly after post-911 in relationship to arab and muslim americans, gee. but my response would be i don't think we have learned, unfortunately. . >> i think we have time for one more question. >> i think this is a great subject but because of the education, we have so much (inaudible) i think so many people have no idea of what happened in the internment and at least we're talking. >> well, you know what's interesting is the exhibit and the project that ruth was talking about, and that's upstairs and which i participated in, what made it so moving was the idea that you had young san francisco students who were not japanese american, who were african american, who were a variety of folks who were aware of the experience and in some way were making it part of their own life, exactly what we're talking about. how do you make something that happened 65 years ago relevant to young people today so that there is something to be learned from it, that there is something that can be taken from it. that's what's so interesting about the exhibition. it's called

anti-muslim sentiment in this country is at unprecedented levels. about two-thirds of americansve that muslims shouldn't have the same first amendment rights, as other americans. that's 100 million americans who believe that. now the important thing is, and jim will tell you this, this isn't christian or jewish-based islamophobia, it has much more to do with right-wing fringe groups that have entered into the mainstream. the tragedy is jews and catholics who have done with this bigotry in this country in the past haven't been the ground swell for standing up against muslims in this country. jim, of course, has been one of the leading voices condemning islamophobia. regardless of where you play or how you worship is that we have to recognize that all people in this country have a right to worship as they please, to believe as they please. and if we don't stand up for each other, then we are not actually being true to the values of our faith. >> jim, the search for common ground is about how we practice our politics. >> right. the largest affiliation now growing in the country is
