It probably does not serve any purpose for these hearings FBI and home land security has already reasonable data complied on the radicalization with in US. Th

Relations between Muslims and Non Muslims are likely to get worse. There are several small anti-Muslims/Islam organizations have come into existence in the last five years. Several published new articles about Imams preaching hate, not necessary violence, against the society they are part off.

These anti-Muslims organizations show up at almost every Muslim event even though their numbers are small.

Then again its the the two nations theory (Us and them) being exported to the west.

It's all down to the media that keeps potraying negative views about Muslim people so a reaction is inevitable. There are plently of Christian extremists in the USA but not a word on them, Allah see's everything!
