CBS News:
Muslim event in Oregon canceled due to threats
PORTLAND, Ore. - A Monday evening rally to celebrate the death of Osama Bin Laden has been cancelled due to security concerns, reports CBS affiliate KOIN.
"Just the reaction of last nights' news has been different, in different communities and we have been getting emails. Some have been supportive - sending best wishes and there are really 'out there' emails," said Salma Ahmad, President of the Islamic Society of Greater Portland.
A bit more:
Ahmed says news of Bin Laden's death has brought a sense of closure.
"He has become such a symbol that has hurt the image of American Muslins. He has hurt lots of different lives around the world," she said.
I find it sad that we are held hostage to a few thousand bullies and do not stand up to them and knock them down. They only fear real power and yet we acquiesce to their every demand.
