Fundamentalist islamist. but those are familiar words which means he was converted at some point. who converted him? some people are converted online. we know that. but others are converted by some very persuasive imam somewhere. its possible someone in the united states helped bring him across the line and helped convert him into being a terrorist. >> still so much we dont know. lets talk about your novel "sting of the drone." its interesting because as you read it theres an argument why drone ...

There was more controversy at the world trade center memorial. for a look at that, heres liz trottas saturday commentary. >> erecting monuments to the dead is a tricky business. from the drawingboards to the rebuilding of the skyscrapers, new york citys world trade center memorial has been marked by creative tan extremelies, greedy developers and all-around incompetence. and now a manhattan imam on the advisory council as quit in a religious huff. the sheikh says a seven-minute film about al qae...

Muslim terrorists shout "jihad" prior to an attack, usually preceded by a cry of "allah akbar" or allah is greater. the same words reportedly uttered by the 9/11 hijackers as they crashed two airliners into the twin towers. but wait. the imam also doesnt care for the use of the word islamist. in a letter to the museum director, he says that unsophisticated visitors might confuse al qaeda with all muslims and come away with a prejudiced view of this law. time for a footnote. all 19 of the 9/11 hi...

Mutilated as a result. shes been critical of islam p general. and critic reaction to her movie was fierce they wound up pressuring certain schools to cancel screenings and now, the one that revoked her degree, its president is explaining his decision to take away that intended honor. he wrote a select group, quote, outside groups played no role in the ultimate decision. that claim, however, is now being challenged as we have reported the council on american islamic relations played a big role in...

Point out that this bloodshed does not conflate all muslims with terrorists. but the facts of 9/11 speak volumes. the good news is that the sheikh has quit his post on the interfaith committee. why was there one in the first place? well, we are looking out for the muslim world, sensitive to the possibility of a backlash. against what? manhattan cab drivers? if anything indicates the cultural chasm in this struggle it is the imams objections to portions of the al qaeda film read in english with a...

Visitors who do not understand the difference between al-qaeda and muslims may come up short." fbi stats show that anti-muslim bashing is rare, it is not like they smear the muslims, they were also victims as well as the rescuers. what would the imam prefer us to say? that 9/11 was caused by men unhappy with tall buildings or that terrorists were really muslims to smear islam? my guess is they want to clear islam. you have to say 9/11 was done by islamic radicals and theyre still killing all ove...

One woman last night with megyn kelly said she is a human rights attorney and she said if we cant name the enemy, how are we then to defend against it? this right here, all this editing andç worrying, pathetic. >> we here in the west again, we are making deals with ourselves. and this is pathetic, especially after 14 years after 9/11 because if we cant tell the truth about the enemy that were facing -- by the way, even president obama says al qaeda is the enemy of the united states. if we cant...

Different middle eastern stories that are in the video himself, they used this kind of voice-over of broken english and a heavy middle eastern accent. it just felt to us unnecessary and a bit sensationalist. >> reverend, in march, the only imam who was in the interfaith advisory group resigned over this saying, quote, unsophisticated visitors who not understand the difference may come away with a prejudice view of islam leading to an tagnism and even confrontation toward muslim believer near the...

In jerusalem, thousands of christians, some carrying wooden crosses, packed the cobblestone alleyway of the old city. they traced the route they believed jesus walked. a town faces a tough choice between jobs and the environment. and a golfer winds up in a hornets hazard ,when the cbs evening news continues.

Earth. were at war at islam. this is one of their battle fields. they are doing this because they know this hurts us quite a bit. it hurts west, christians, and those are one of -- two of the their biggest targets. >> one of the things about this whole issue, i this think this small show here has done more on this issue than any other journalistic outlet. when obama tries to make a distinction between islamic radical and all the rest of the muslim faith of the. the problem i have is the rest don...
