Napolitano's New Homeland Security Adviser: Identifying Radicalization Hotbeds Is "Un-American"

Here's the official release from the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, announcing the confirmation of ADC National Executive Director Kareem Shora to the Homeland Security Advisory Council. I'm not sure that the ADC's generic apologism for jihad should necessarily disqualify him, if only because most of those statements didn't come from Shora himself.

But here's a link to an old story on LGF - hardly a bastion of "Obama is a Muslim" Manchurian Candidate nonsense - where Shora castigated the NYPD as "un-American" for pursuing terrorists in the interests of homeland security:

The New York Police Department's report on the radicalization of US Muslims has enraged the Saudi-funded unindicted co-conspirators calling themselves the Council on American Islamic Relations; they'd prefer that no one ever investigate these matters... "The report lists sites that are likely to be visited by any American Muslim as radicalization 'incubators.' The sites listed include mosques, cafes, cab driver hangouts, student associations, nongovernmental organizations, butcher shops, and bookstores."

Also getting into the act: the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, who are calling the NYPD "un-American:" Kareem Shora, legal adviser for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, called the findings faulty and inflammatory. "The report is at odds with federal law enforcement findings, including those of the recently released National Intelligence Estimate, and uses unfortunate stereotyping of entire communities," Shora said in a statement. "The use of such language by the NYPD is un-American and goes against everything for which we stand."

Given how the FBI concluded that Muslim organizations like CAIR were indeed supporting terrorism, doesn't that make Shora's take on the controversy inapt? It just seems like, given the choice between an homeland security adviser who tried to chill domestic terror investigations and one who didn't - ya know? (h/t: MR reader Holly)
