(MIAMI, FL, 5/2/07) - The executive director of the South Florida chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-SFL) said today that he has received a death threat, apparently from the same person who threatened Muslims in the Detroit area.
Altaf Ali said the letter, which contained the same violent pro-Israel and Islamophobic rhetoric and imagery sent to CAIR’s Michigan office, stated in part: “Altaf Ali - is a walking Dead Man.”
Ali met today with a local FBI official about the threat.
