| Bonior: McCarthyism against Arabs in Michigan |
| 2001-10-24 |
Michigan's Rep. David Bonior, angling for Arab-American votes in the governor's race, is attacking the FBI over a Michigan State Police report on alleged terrorist activity in the Wolverine State. (Newsweek obtained a copy of the report, and we noted it Monday.) Says Bonior: "I'm often skeptical of the FBI pointing fingers. They have a history of doing this and not being correct. This insinuation, this kind of character assassination of a community, is the kind of thing that went on during the McCarthy era." Ah well, national unity was nice while it lasted. |
