OMAHA, Neb. (AP) -- Supervisors at a meatpacking plant have fired or harassed dozens of Somali Muslim employees for trying to pray at sunset, violating civil rights laws, the workers and their advocates say.

The five- to 10-minute prayer, known as the maghrib, must be done within a 45-minute window around sunset, according to Muslim rules. The workers at the Swift & Co. plant in Grand Island say they quit, were fired or were verbally and physically harassed over the issue.

Clinton saw the bases populations were cut in half. So he ended the waste and consolidated the personnel. DAC, TAC, and MAC were reorganized and renamed.

Neo-cons seem mad at Clinton for being fiscally responsible. Why?

The posters on every subway train couldn't be more clear: "If you see something, say something."

No conditions, no fine print - and nothing about legal liability.

For good reason: No matter how useful the billions of dollars spent at all levels of government to prevent another terrorist attack, the nation's final line of defense is always the everyday vigilance of ordinary Americans.

But if Democratic leaders in Washington get their way, that defense will grow a lot weaker. They're trying their hardest - quietly, of course - to kill a measure that would protect vigilant citizens acting in good faith from being sued by people they report for acting suspiciously.

When you use the word 'Islamics', what you mean to say is 'extremist'.

a little education never hurt.

How can they say they "support" the troops while at same time send them to their deaths or maimings so heartlessly and nonsensically?

I heard this happened in the years leading up to the creation of the state of israel when the arabs were intimidated, had their villages razed, while others were bombed and murdered randomly. Is this true?
