To the Council on American-Islamic Relations: Say it like it is: "ISLAMic-Fascists"

According to Reuters, US Muslim groups believe that the term President Bush used in his reference to a "war with Islamic fascists," could inflame anti-Muslim tensions.

"We believe this is an ill-advised term and we believe that it is counter-productive to associate Islam or Muslims with fascism," said Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations advocacy group.

We also believe that it is very sad to associate the term Islam and/or Muslim with terrorism but it has become evident in the past five years that in the name of Islam horrendous acts have been committed.

We ask and call for the Council on American-Islamic Relations to denounce these acts of terrorism and support wholeheartedly their fellow citizens by announcing that they will cooperate with law enforcement authorities, even if it means ranting on the fascists in their faith !!!!!
