Given the reactions of those "patriotic" Americans in NY City when Muslims tried to build a Community Center,
and the "watch lists" created by the F.B.I of people sending $ to other countries,
I'm not surprised if there may a reluctance on the part of American Muslims to draw attention to themselves.
Can you imagine the reaction to a parade down Main Street
of a large number of men and women carrying flags and placards saying... أنا لست أسامة بن لادن
For now, if I were Muslim, I'm not sure I'd want those neighbors down the street to know it.
