FBI to probe Quran abuse on video AP via KnoxNews ^ \| 7-11-06 \| Statf knoxnews.com CHATTANOOGA - The FBI will look into an online video that shows two men shooting a Quran with a military rifle and then leaving the bullet-riddled holy book at a Chattanooga mosque, an agent said Monday. FBI agent Tim Burke said the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations asked the Justice Department to investigate the incident. He said no one from the local Muslim community had complained. Justice Department spokesman Eric Holland said the request would be reviewed carefully. Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the Islamic group, said the video may have been recorded in Chattanooga a year ago. The video titled "kill the koran" was posted on MySpace.com last month, Hooper said. It could still be seen on the Web site Monday. Abdul Raheem Kabah, who Hooper identified as the imam, or prayer leader, of the Chattanooga mosque, did not return telephone messages Monday seeking comment. A man on the Web site identifies himself as "mully88" and claims to live in Chattanooga. The author's profile lists as heroes "anybody that has killed a muslim or at least tried to kill a muslim." The site also contains slurs against Hispanics and blacks.
