While Your Phone Calls Are Tracked & Stored – Obama’s Snooping Excludes Mosques
Posted by Jim Hoft on Thursday, June 13, 2013, 7:52 AM
While information on your emails and phone calls were stored en masse, the Obama administration restricted spying on mosques.
Investors.com reported:
The White House assures that tracking our every phone call and keystroke is to stop terrorists, and yet it won’t snoop in mosques, where the terrorists are.
That’s right, the government’s sweeping surveillance of our most private communications excludes the jihad factories where homegrown terrorists are radicalized.
Since October 2011, mosques have been off-limits to FBI agents. No more surveillance or undercover string operations without high-level approval from a special oversight body at the Justice Department dubbed the Sensitive Operations Review Committee.
Who makes up this body, and how do they decide requests? Nobody knows; the names of the chairman, members and staff are kept secret.
We do know the panel was set up under pressure from Islamist groups who complained about FBI stings at mosques. Just months before the panel’s formation, the Council on American-Islamic Relations teamed up with the ACLU to sue the FBI for allegedly violating the civil rights of Muslims in Los Angeles by hiring an undercover agent to infiltrate and monitor mosques there.

Not surprising to most of us...in the least.

The problem is, "most of us" is a relatively small group. The biased media and the stupid public are all in for this human piece of garbage.

I suspect CAIR approves of whomever sits on this panel.

Which, of course, is why they were clueless about the Boston Marathon jihadists.
