No doubt, Islamopanderer Gov. Chris Christie, is upset, too. (see links below). The NJ chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations today expressed its disappointment with the decision of a federal judge to dismiss the lawsuit filed against the NYPD for widespread spying on Muslims in New Jersey.
AP/ABC In August of 2011, The Associated Press revealed an NYPD program developed in partnership with the CIA to target American Muslims with unprecedented monitoring, surveillance and alleged civil rights violations. As a result of these revelations, Muslim civil liberties groups filed two lawsuits challenging the legality of the NYPD’s indiscriminate monitoring of the Muslim community in New York City, New Jersey, and along the East Coast.
But the judge threw the lawsuit out, saying the New York Police Department’s intelligence unit didn’t discriminate against Muslims with far-reaching surveillance aimed at identifying “budding terrorist conspiracies” at Newark mosques and other locations in New Jersey, a federal judge ruled on Thursday.
In a written decision filed in federal court in Newark, U.S. District Judge William Martini dismissed a civil rights lawsuit brought in 2012 by eight Muslims who alleged the NYPD’s surveillance programs were unconstitutional because they focused on religion, national origin and race. The suit had accused the department of spying on ordinary people at several mosques, restaurants and grade schools in New Jersey since 2002.
The plaintiffs, including the former principal of a grade school for Muslim girls, “have not alleged facts from which it can be plausibly inferred that they were targeted solely because of their religion,” Martini wrote. “The more likely explanation for the surveillance was to locate budding terrorist conspiracies.”
The judge added: “The police could not have monitored New Jersey for Muslim terrorist activities without monitoring the Muslim community itself. … The motive for the program was not solely to discriminate against Muslims, but to find Muslim terrorists hiding among the ordinary law-abiding Muslims.”
The ruling also singled out The Associated Press, which sparked the suit with a series of stories based on confidential NYPD document showing how the department sought to infiltrate dozens of mosques and Muslim student groups and investigated hundreds in New York and elsewhere.
“Nowhere in the complaint do the plaintiffs allege that they suffered harm prior to the unauthorized release of documents by The Associated Press,” Martini wrote. “This confirms that plaintiffs’ alleged injuries flow from the Associated Press’s unauthorized disclosure of the documents. … The Associated Press covertly obtained the materials and published them without authorization. Thus the injury, if any existed, is not fairly traceable to the city.”
“Dismissal of the lawsuit further promotes the suspicion many Muslims already have, that they will be spied on and there is little they can do about it,” said CAIR-NJ Civil Rights Director Khurrum Ali. “This decision will weaken the belief that community members can protect their civil rights through the justice system.”
Below is the frivolous lawsuit the judge wisely threw out.
Can Ray Kelly now sue cair for defamation?
And why can’t the Justice Department charge The ASSociated Press with stealing or obtaining and then publishing a confidential police document? Is there not also a copyright issue in that document???
They should but they won’t. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Obama Regime were the ones who leaked the documents to the AP.
I agree. There’s enough Brotherhood & CAIR around him, they have access to everything. Nice to know there are still decent judges who don’t fall prey to that word ‘victim’.
I can’t wait for the day when a bold, high ranking politician, or big time celebrity, stands up and says to CAIR, et al., “We’re sick and tired of your distortions, lies, double standards, and hypocrisy. Shut your godammed mouths!”
Allen West pretty much did that when he sent them a letter that said only: “Nuts”
“NUTS”, huh? THAT’s special and I love it!!!
West could not have said more with an expose`…lol

Hey! Thanks, Bonni!! I’m sure the reaction was similar to that of the receiving German commander at Bastogne… “was gibt “nussen”?…..lol
Right, forgot about good ‘ol Mr. West. He doesn’t hold any punches. He’s very articulate, and not emotionally overwrought. But, I think he’s not quite yet mainstream enough, i.e., you don’t see (I haven’t, anyway) much of anything on him in major newspapers and magazines, or on talk shows. I’d vote for him if he ran for president, but that ain’t gonna happen. Would love to see a debate between him and the woman in the above clip, or with any other jihadi from any islamic organization. He’d smoke ’em.
the term muslim american is an oxymoron they are muslims first Americans second.
maybe if they acted like civilized people there wouldn’t need to be any surveilling?
Oooh, yeah NYPD, why are you persecuting those poooooooor moslems?! Just because they have demonstrated a proclivity for hating America, NYC, and any of that western infidel stuff, AND show a tendency toward blowing up buildings and killing infidels; infidels being ANYONE who dares to question their demented demonic political ideology known as pislam, that they try to pass off as a “religion of peace?! ….Oh boo hoo, and –=-YOU too, moslem sh–s!!
Yeah, too freaking bad if you don’t like the NYPD using monitoring to keep our country safe. If you have nothing to hide, then you have no worries. Here’s an idea, start monitoring YOURSELVES. All mushits are not innocent. Stop condoning activities that put all of us in danger.
Mushits are the biggest bunch of complainers, whiners, enraged, shocked and untolerant people (if you can even call them that) on the face of the earth.
Aren’t we (non-mushits) really really tired of their incessant whining and demanding?
I know I am.
So nice to see some good news on a Friday morning.
Just in time for a communal weep in all mosques and saturated sajājīd (raisin raising rug).
Too bad the judge didn’t throw the muslim dirt bags out (of the country) too!
Deporting ALL muslims is the only way to make America a safer place.
….to the arctic. The polar bears are starving….
They should consider themselves fortunate that it’s the NYPD targeting them, my targeting involves crosshairs
Quran (3:151) – “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers”
Of course, the Muslim Fifth Column don’t want surveillance. The Quran WAR book commands Muslims to conquer all nations by any and all means.
MUSLIMS CALL THEIR MILITARY COMMAND CENTERS, MOSQUES:

40,000 Iran agents in Western Hemisphere
Now hidden in Latin America, awaiting ‘operations’ against U.S.
“We must get ready for global operation. … Our fellow fighters are present in all five continents of the world. … An international jihad must be provoked; we must fear no one.”
The Revolutionary Guards’ intelligence division runs operations out of mosques.
Those operations include recruitment, reconnaissance and transfer of arms and cash.
This source also verified then that all Imam Ali Mosques are controlled by regime intelligence operatives and that the cells are well placed in Europe and America for terrorist acts…

Quran (3:56) – “As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help.”
It is an act of terrible TREASON that Western leaders imported many millions of Muslims into our countries. Unless this frightening situation is REVERSED, the future consequences will be horrifying.
Quran (9:5) – “So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush.”

Winston Churchill: “If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

Tough shit! Don’t kill and rape people, indiscriminately, and they won’t need to “spy” on you. Better yet – go the hell back to the shit hole you came from.
Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan: “The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers….”
Terrorist supporters, Muslim Brotherhood front group CAIR and Muslims are furious. CAIR and Muslims demand the right for Muslim terrorists to have FULL FREEDOM to plot and carry out several 9/11’s against hated infidel Americans. 3,000 Americans murdered by Muslims whilst they shouted out praise and worship to their Muslim DEATH god was not enough murdered infidels for America’s Fifth Column.
Thank God ethical Judge Martini can’t be bought off with Arab oil money to betray our people! In addition to Muslims, New Jersey’s Governor Chris Christie will be VERY unhappy with ethical Judge Martini’s decision! Our Western nations are cursed with many traitors!

Huh not very msulim is a terrorist but gees it seems that every terrorist is a msulim
So gosh I guess we are gonna have to watch you all.
I really don’t care what CAIR or Governor Christie think. Muslims ARE DANGEROUS! They NEED to be monitored!
Never, ever trust a lying MUZ SCUM. Spy on them, dog their trail, make their life hell on earth and maybe, just maybe, they will GET THE HELL OUT OF THE U.S. and go back to the garbage dump they crawled away from.
Hasta la Vista, FILTH!
