| #4 The ANTI-CAIR lawsuit proved for once and all that CAIR is a terrorist front. If our government is so monumentally stupid as to give them a single penny of financing then they must be voted out of office, one and all. This is an insult to the American people. The al-Hurrah fiasco is bad enough. CAIR must be banned immediately. How our politicians can ignore the subversive activities of this terrorist organization is simply beyond me. As if a large number of its executive members being convicted of making financial and material contributions to terrorist groups wasn't enough. |

| #3 I think this is the FY07UASI Nonprofit Security Grant Program The $25M is the total amont of funds available nationally. The due date for applications isn't until the end of June or so. According to the info at Grants.gov "The Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) Nonprofit Security Grant Program provides funding support for target hardening activities to nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of an international terrorist attack...." Thus CAIR would have to demonstrate it is at risk to attack from an international terrorism organization - not from a hypothetical American grown anti muslim org. |

| #2 CAIR should be called CON AIR. If Homeland Security gives CAIR these grants all of us will be less secure--not too bright to do this. |

| #1 I adamantly opposed to taxpayer money being funneled to any muslim school, center, mosque, for any reason. This pisses me off, but I can't say I'm all that surprised. if the muslims want added security they should pay for it themselves privately without contribution from the public. |
