Who Advised DHS & State Dept To Ban The Word Jihad?
Good luck finding out.
Steven Emerson of the Investigative Project tried to find out which Muslim groups were consulted by the DHS and influenced their decision—and the DHS refuses to reveal that information.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is refusing to identify the “influential Muslim Americans” and “leading U.S.-based scholars and commentators on Islam” who met with Secretary Michael Chertoff in helping shape a softer approach to government lexicon about terrorists and their ideological motivations.
“Our policy is we don’t comment on the Secretary’s private schedule,” spokeswoman Amy Kudwa told the IPT. Nor would she identify any of the participants’ organizational affiliation.
This is troubling, very troubling. Why are they refusing to say what groups requested this. Talk about dhimmitude dude.
