Muslim-Americans Respond To Terrorism

On Sunday, here in Los Angeles, Muslim American leaders began a nation-wide campaign of town-hall meetings for Muslim Americans. The forums are designed to create a dialogue within Muslim American communities across the United States--to educate Muslims that Islam provides no place for terrorist activity, as stated in the Qur'an, and to create a sense of accountability at mosques around the nation. The meetings also kick off a partnership between law enforcement and Muslim Americans, with representatives from the FBI offering advice on how to spot potential terrorists. Joining Host Larry Mantle is Dr. Maher Hathout, senior advisor of MPAC, and Matt McLaughlin, supervisory special agent with the Office of Public and Congressional Affairs in the Los Angeles division of the FBI.
