some muslims. so it depends who decides what the muslims. >> christianity. >> absolutely. no different. >> what is a moderate muslim? >> that is somebody that george bush was looking for. because george bush divides into good and bad. >> here? >> i don't know what's fair. basically a good muslim according to the bush a ministration, somebody who followed our policies, somebody. and he did not contest the said. what has happened is there is a question in the muslim community. i think that a lot of americans are very apprehensive about the presence of muslims. will we call the phobia. sort of writing. the american society. i think that american society, the phobia. make a living. well, you have the governor, i mean, all list. a study recently this said that they have $30 million. so also muslims who make money out of demonizing. they become the in farmers. there's a whole list of them. then they go around saying, a muslim, know what ag. the give the money. so who decides what is? i don't know. somebody you demonizes islam, somebody who takes his religion seriously, according

history when waves of muslims came to the states? >> there is a short period of time by 1974 and 100 people from the middle east could come to the united states and they had to be relatives of people who were already there so between 1924 and the second world war is a period. that's why the second world war they have to go back because especially from bosnia and other places the united states has recruited them from coming and they train them with the idea of teaching them how to fight but then they didn't know what to do with them so they brought them to the united states. in the united states recruited people from the muslim world after 1952 because that's when the united states went into the business of communism in the muslim countries and so we have a lot of propaganda based on that and they've recruited students to come study for their masters degree or ph.d. in the united states and some of these people did not go that. then after 1965 we have the major immigration when the united states abolished the asia exclusion act and th

community muslim phrase like he said last majority of muslims i live with them across the across here in the united kingdom they lied by the law in this land they are happy to live in a christian majority country they have to follow the rule of law and yes the rule of law in this country and across europe allows the right for us to practice our faith according to our own wishes and that's freedom that's a liberal democracy something which looked seems to be immune according to kant from sweden. all right roger i'm going to live with i'm going to give roger the last word twenty seconds go ahead well last word i think we have to remember that liberal democracy it was a very long painful procrustes rich good process that grew out of a europe which was ripping itself apart in sectarian wars between different parts of christianity and now we have a chance to actually make it a genuinely multi-faith multi-cultural society but we've got to really address every maoris our lives know roger thank you very much and let's remember the victims are to lose ok many thanks to my yesterday in stockhol

well i think it's very dangerous for marine le pen to jump on this bandwagon of pima nineteen muslims and immigrants what we've got to be very clear is that as france consider to be a massacre in toulouse they've got to deal with this in a responsible way and it's up to call attention to him particularly presidents because the affronts us alone to behave responsibly to tone down the rhetoric and to not demonize the whole community and faith system i roger is right this person who's carried out this terrible terrible crime killing muslim christian soldiers and those beautiful children of the jewish school only a few days ago had one mission and that was to. divide french society and we should not succeed in that and the likes of. pain. so cozy and others on the far right have got to be very careful in the record that they use and i you know today president sarkozy give a speech which was very balanced and very thick you know it's very. very interesting it was louise very today ok but during the campaign it has been very balanced ok has a new business plan which very much on my part pet

no, the muslims didn't do it. and 90% of the muslims know that. they don't believe it. we don't believe it at all. >> the imam runs a private school in the mosque's basement. the children are taught all subjects, not just religion. private schools like this one are legal in the united states. there are more than 3 million muslims in the u.s. -- nearly 1% of the population -- and the vast majority want nothing to do with the radical mosques or their clergy. they have mostly the same dreams and ambitions as their fellow citizens: success, prosperity and social standing. after george w. bush left office, khan, now age 42, went to work for the private sector, representing a software corporation. >> other young muslim americans who're thinking about public service -- thinking about serving their country, were having second doubts and thoughts about it: 'why should i do that? maybe i should just go into the private sector, because there are those people out there who might start questioning my loyalty, questioning my patriotism. >> he may well be expressing his own doubts and

of these, ten are muslim.he largest of these are hui. ( man delivering sermon ) narrator: although the hui have their own autonomous region in ningxia, other autonomous regions like xizang, otibet, speak distinct languages. many in xinjiang, like the uighurs, speak turkic languages. many of these muslims feel oppressed by china for cultural and economic reasons. some seek a breakaway state of east turkistan. some have used violence, and the chinese government trie. hui are loyal chinese and are found throughout china. they speak the dominantanguages of thelaces where they live. now we getnto the issue of race and ethnicity. many people, uh, believe of tthat, uh, these are...e. this is a group of people that is really of han chinese race but islamic religion. the hui themselves don't see it that way. they see themselves as the descendants of the earliest muslims in china, who were arabs, persians, turks, some mongolian muslims and others. narrator: geographer chai yangwei grew up near here. he returned to china

but also as sam said, for muslims to criticize the muslim brotherhood. or to criticize openly, without fear of recrimination, an understanding of islam that they may consider to be simply false without being accused of blasphemy. or defamation of islam. so, in short, this is not just about minorities. it's also about the majority community and disfavored members of the majority community. >> that's a very, very difficult question. i don't know if i'll even begin to be able to address it in any way. but i think what i will agree with is that, you know, this idea of religious freedom isn't as simple as one might think. you know, because as you have done, you've kind of separated different dimensions of it. in fact, i have not even gone that far. what i have focused on or what i think is quite crucial at this moment, and maybe that's because i'm living in this particular moment with regard to the difficulties that are going on in egypt right now, are -- and this might not exactly be religious freedom, but ideas of equality without regard to religion. it's n

owned businesses muslim communities muslim community center is an islamic centers i think it's really interesting that you bring up some of these investigations by the associated press they've really stayed on this story the a.p. of course very far reaching and police commissioner their new your in new york ray kelly has kind of turned it around saying well it's the a.p. scott because they're targeting us and so he's trying to spin this and saying the police department being targeted by the a.p. as opposed to what the a.p. is saying that's going on which is that police are in a widespread way targeting. communities. there's also a crisis has no relationship to the community there would be no reason for them there are journalists there basically providing a poor investigative report based on secret documents that were leaked to them from the n.y.p.d. so they are reporters there are putting out information for new yorkers people in the united states and even internationally to make their own judgments about commissioner kelly and the n.y.p.d. and i remember the n.y.p.d. has been attacke

for its unveiling surveillance program some of the muslim population support the agency's moves we're going to host a debate to see what exactly it is that divides the community and for the for profit industry they're promising growth could be investors we're going to show you the troubling power point presentation we're going to have all that barfi tonight including a dose of happy hour but first take a look with mainstream media has decided it's. art so today i'm going to keep it brief but if you haven't noticed everybody is talking about the new budget for twenty thirteen the paul ryan released yesterday. i presented a paul ryan is chairman of the house budget committee and he released what he calls his path to prosperity plan for new fall congressman paul ryan's proposed budget for two thousand and thirteen and he's defending the vigorously the headline is lower tax rates and a total overhaul of medicare but there's some headline is if you believe any of those things are actually going to happen it's a ninety eight page budget which calls for spending cuts two tax brackets of ten

muslim students in universities across the northeast even sending an informant are rafting trip and it turns out the n.y.p.d. was stepping outside of its jurisdiction and conducting surveillance in new jersey without notifying notifying local law enforcement or the bet's something which is contributing to a growing rift between the f.b.i. and the n.y.p.d. now these are clear civil liberties violations if you go after somebody solely for their religion and the outcries called the justice department to look into it but there's a group of muslim journalists activists out there some people that not only support the thank the n.y.p.d. for their actions to talk about this division within the muslim community here to discuss that with me here is progress a journalist said jelani and a friend of mine author of standing alone an american woman's struggle for the soul of islam i want to thank you guys of both for joining me tonight and so also i'm going to start with you because i think that this is maybe the minority view or definitely the view that we hear a lot less up and so why is it tha

since -- i mean i would love to see the reaction of the muslim brotherhood if a muslim in egypt now decided to convert to christianity. it would be very interesting to see it. as well for the selafist. so that's my question. >> very good. >> these are all excellent questions and i commend you for asking. what i would say is, i do not lump the selafist with the wasafia tendency and said explicitly in my talk, the wasatia presents itself as a critique. essentially wants to revert back to the rightly guided and the [ speaking in foreign language ] the pious founding fathers of the religion, which would mean you would adopt tradition institutions of [ speaking in foreign language ], the subject people and so on. but the muslim brotherhood here, there is debates within the organization, and this is not a unitary organization. there are many within the muslim brotherhood that have abandoned the traditional views that will, you know, found whether the islamic tradition or in the islamist movement and then there are those that hold on to them. look, let me get to your point. are these guys complete

define a muslim. for this reason it is important to defend religious freedom and to work on bringing religious freedom as an integral part of building a liberal democracy in the region. let me now move from this to the present and the future and the situation of religious freedom in egypt. religious freedom in egypt is hardly a happy story. there simply isn't that much of religious freedom in the country. certainly it is not saudi arabia. it is not iran. but the situation of religious freedom in egypt has been shaped by the dynamic relationship, interrelationship between the religious establishment, the state, the islamists and the general public. each of these has played a different factor or different role in the lack of religious freedom in the country. but it is how they operate together that creates this vacuum of freedom for -- whether religious minorities, intellectuals and others who think differently. that situation has, perhaps, worsened much more after the revolution. we've seen a dramatic

targeting muslims and monitor and muslim mosques muslim students anyone simply based on the fact that they are muslim but are not there is probable cause that they're related to any kind of terrorist activity so this shows that police are now profiling people based on religion so would you say that discrimination is now shifting toward the muslim population. let's assume that a right wing extremist killed china in my lower body. and compare it to the trayvon martin case then in both cases you would have citizens mimicking to some degree the behavior of law enforcement officials george zimmerman was essentially a vigilante who was trying to but want to be cop was trying to carry out police duties in his neighborhood and across the country the guy federal law enforcement using community relations with the muslim we need as a guys to monitor muslims in their mosques sending in informants in trapping people and convicting them on bogut with basically bogus convictions in new york the n.y.p.d. is not only monitoring muslims in new york we're monitoring muslims outside of new york and if we

there's a lot of attacks on muslims in terms of the f.b.i. has been actually sent there informants into muslim communities because for some reason the f.b.i. thinks that muslims are more suspicious they're a minority group they're easier to target us women particularly because they often wear his shop so they dress a little differently and. they're easy targets the issue of the f.b.i. i know that in actually at york city the new york city police department has been sending informants into muslim soon associations and i think this is an outrageous trial ration of civil liberties that we have this alleged entrapment case of the pittsburgh man he says he was a little worried and see me as comments and as you just mentioned the n.y.p.d. they have been accused of racial profiling muslims to what extent do you think racial profiling occurs within u.s. law enforcement well in terms of these cases or what we call them is a preemptive prosecution or prosecution without a crime it seems to me that we would be united states of america and that once word

nadarkhani says he was never a muslim. jordan sekulow has been meeting with church and government leaders. charlene israel asked him about his effort. >> jordan, what are they doing for him? >> they said we asked iran to put a halt and working to have him released. they are taking the information and demand the meeting with the ambassador. this is happening while we are on the ground. brazil is diplomatically engaging iran to save pastor yousef nadarkhani. they have a relationship. a key ally diplomatically for iran. they are getting responses western leaders couldn't get. we were in the newspaper. vice president said we have a duty as brazil to stand for human rights especially when we have a specific case where we know the name. >> you are meeting with church leaders, tell us about this. >> church leaders follow the christian news. they know about the aclj. they are very connected to the government. they have high profile contacts. when they contacted us. we contacted them. we saw the interview about brazil being able to

this triggered threats to other muslims that converted to christianity. that is why the house churches closed down. >> this didn't stop believers from going to church. they now worship as the only surviving christian church in the city. >> my neighbors warn me i should not go out. when my husband was alive, he said we should always be able to face death for the work of the lord. >> that is why he remains serving more than 30 years. even though church attendance has decreased by 70 percent. he believes the church will still prevail, even if the churches are driven underground. >> we make these people grow in the lord. fasting, bible studies, training, the work of the lord will go on. that is the promise of the lord. i will build my church. the gates of hell will not prevail against it. it includes the ministry among muslims. >> lucille talusan, cbn news, mindanao, philippines. >>> coming up, the safe helping haiti shadow children. >> hard to believe it has been two years after haiti's earthquake. hundreds of thousands are living in tent cities. >> stan jet

there were muslims. never really talking to the russian orthodox church, never trying to be sensitive about this, and it became less a peaceful competition than sort of a scrum. this has led, among other things, to the russian orthodox church said we don't like this religious freedom stuff. let's go back to that authoritarian mother russia so we will be the stakeholders, we'll be the religious representatives of russia, and the result of this was antidemocratic development. so it's a good question, because it tells you is that religious freedom requires a little sensitivity. you have to be sensitive the culture whether it's china or russia or pakistan. people feel very strongly about religion. if you don't take it into account you're not going to be successful. so, this is part of what american diplomats seem to be missing. i you're going out to rich as an american diplomat, what you ought to get for training, yolanthe russian language, russian history, the government, the economy and so forth. you ought

they outlawed the muslim brotherhood as a party. they allowed the islamists to take over the professional syndicates. egypt has an interesting history in terms if you look at the judiciary back to the 1920s. this developed a semblance of independence and they allowed the islamists to come in and take over. you look at all the professional syndicates, the lawyers or dock, to it was a muslim brotherhood who came to dominate. this was okay for mubarak's standpoint because in a sense, this was the way he lived and let live with the muslim brotherhood, he gave them a kind of outlet. and yet, by the same token, anybody who is under the rubric of secular and liberal, no possibility of emerging, no tolerance for them. you look at what happened. basically we're in a situation where you had one place that was seen as being completely authentic, and off limit, precisely because the regime didn't have legitimacy, which was the mosque. in the mosque you had freedom of speech, so people in the mosque would stand up and say things and you can mang

that this notion that muslims today to be truly muslims and revive their civilization they have to merge together once again and form a -- they argue that's not necessary and a lot of these guys get in trouble with other radical groups that insist on the formation of a unitary, argue this is not really the case. you can live with a modern nation state and that's fine. that's part of the [ speaking in foreign language ] the secondary issues. not part of the [ speaking in foreign language ] or the creed of islam. they believe that democratic participation and the compatibility of islam with democracy. so these guy, democrats and indeed more democratic than the regimes that often repress them on the -- the kennard that they are anti-democracy and come in and end democracy, at hosni mubarak and end their democratic regimes. so, you know, they take the examples of the rightly guided [ speaking in foreign language ] the first person to replace the prophet muhammad was elected by the consensus of the community. that, to them, is prima facie evidence that islam is for elections. they believe in

surveillance of muslims now the n.y.p.d. is traveling down into orleans to monitor protests and driving muslims all over the northeast that one can only imagine how they're reacting to the occupy movement they just last night we had we spoke with truthout jason leopold to discuss the department of homeland security's role in monitoring the movement and truthout was the first organization to file a formal request and they got. almost four hundred pages worth of material all there is no smoking gun from v.h.s. in terms of unconstitutional surveillance i wondered last night whether or not and other local police forces might be the ones that are really doing the heavy lifting aka the dirty work now we haven't seen the results but leopold so that he expected the department suppression of the occupy movement to surface faster than you can say for them in violation if and when those documents are disclosed that is. but you also try to go local to the n.y.p.d. has the freedom of information law in new york and do you think that that
