Let me modify my previous message to "media and CAIR" until I can substantiate the talking heads PORTION. Here is a good example: http://www.examiner.com/rnc-in-washington-dc/republican-leaders-responsible- for-anti-muslim-hate-crimes Also, Malkin has been reporting this hate crime meme since 2004.

Did anyone claim only Muslims faced hate crimes? Or that they were getting worse treatment than Jews?
