They got a few homes on 9/11.

"They" being 19 individual adherents to a religious movement made up of loosely organized, decentralized sets of religious groups we call Al Qaeda as a short way of describing their movement.

Who exist in every country in the world, except maybe Iceland and Greenland.

Who for the most part fly under radar, do nothing to call attention to themselves, and go about their ordinary business and look and act just like ordinary people. Maybe not ordinary people in some parts of the world, but very ordinary people here in the DC metro area.

I've worked on dozens of cases involving Muslims and eat at Middle Eastern restaurants almost every week. I've got Arabs living three houses up the block, although I think they're Christian.

There are millions of Muslims in the United States, and millions of Arabs, most of those being Christian. I don't think of "them" as my enemy. None of them, until proven otherwise. They might be, but I give them the benefit of the doubt, and hope the FBI and the NSA and the police do their job.
