AMC Seeks Assistance From Law Enforcement Agencies To Protect All Americans
(WASHINGTON, DC - 9/11/2001) The American Muslim Council (AMC) is urging all
Muslims to come together in this time of tragedy. AMC today condemned the
cowardly terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington and expressed its
condolences to the families of innocent people killed. This horrific
violent incident disturbs American Muslims.
AMC wants all law enforcement officials to be cognizant of the fact that at
times like these, there are some acts of violence perpetrated against
Islamic Centers and Muslims of our communities. We are confident that
authorities will protect all men, women and children. We hope to prevent the
acts of violence directed towards Muslims and Islamic Centers.
American Muslims experienced violent attacks and verbal harassment in the
aftermath of the Oklahoma City Bombing when our fellow citizens rushed to
judgment about the perpetrators of the crime. We urge our fellow Americans
not to be quick to stereotype Muslims, who are also suffering at this
traumatic time. We, like all Americans, want to feel secure and want to see
the perpetrators brought to justice. Enough innocent lives have been killed
today.
