Imam Elahi: Loyal U.S. Citizen or Friend of Radical Islam?

My story describing my December trip to Dearborn, Michigan--a heavily Arab and Muslim suburb of Detroit--aired yesterday on the 700 Club. My apologies for not promoting it on the blog--I was so wrapped it up in putting it all together (the story run over nine minutes) that I simply forgot. But judging from the feedback I've gotten thus far in counterterrorism circles, my description of the radicalism and anti-Semitism I found among prominent Dearborn Muslims is making some waves.

So far, the Counterterrorism Blog, Debbie Schlussel.com and jihadwatch.org--great sites all--all linked to and discussed the piece. Although it aired yesterday, you can still watch it here. Just go to the Tuesday, January 10 show and click Play. The story comes on about 15:45 into the show. And you can read a text version of it here.

I think you may be downright shocked by what you see and hear, and I think you'll have a feeling of profound disappointment in the FBI.  As always, direct any comments to erick.stakelbeck@cbn.org.
