The California Islamic Shura Council, CAIR and four other Islamic groups and 5 individuals can't see additional records of FBI inquiries into their activities because of "national security concerns" U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney ruled yesterday. The judge also concluded the government mislead the court the records existed in the first place. Judge Carney reached his decision after personally reviewing over 100 pages of documents.
CAIR and other activist organizations believed the FBI illegally targeted Muslims in Southern California and entered what turned out to be c;ose to a 5 year legal battle. The director of the Shura Council, Shakeel Syed, said he feels he has to constantly look over his shoulder. Why? Most Americans know they have nothing to fear or have the need to "look over their shoulder" because they are certain their actions and activities would never ever be under the scrunity of the FBI. Syed's statement is worrisome.
Judge Carney's orders were written to be made public but the federal government blocked (4th paragrpah from bottom) it.
