Seems like every year 24 starts up, every year there is a group that is upset about the identification of Muslims as terrorists.

I’ve been waiting for a recap of Jill Carroll’s kidnapping and release while in Iraq; it’s kind of a no-brainer that this was coming. It’s being told in a 10 part story at the Christian Science Monitor as well as being summarized at CNN.
