Text of press Release (Washington DC, 10/08/2001) 

The American Muslim Council supports our government’s action against world terrorism and reaffirms its condemnation of the terrorist attacks of September 11th against our country. The AMC appreciates the President’s leadership in reaffirming that this is a war against terrorism and not against the Afghan people, Muslims or Islam.

The AMC commends our President for his statement that our military campaign will take measures to protect the civilian population of Afghanistan. The AMC is particularly grateful for the President’s compassion and humanitarian efforts for the Afghani people along with other initiatives, and fully supports his efforts to deal with the causes of terrorism. “We support our brave men and women who are fighting to protect us from terrorism,” said Aly Abuzaakouk, executive director of AMC.
