Here is the predictable sidebar to the [1] ice cream jihad arrests in Lodi, California: now area Muslims are afraid of a backlash. But aren't they afraid that there might be more jihad terrorists among them? If they are, they aren't saying so here. "Probe expected to widen, FBI says; LODI REACTION: Muslims shaken, fearful of backlash as after 9/11," from the [2] San Francisco Chronicle, with thanks to [3] LGF:

After the arrest here this week of two Pakistani American men and the detention of two Pakistani Muslim religious leaders, Mohammed Shoaib, 53, a shopkeeper, fears another backlash.

"People don't know who's who and what's what," said Shoaib, who immigrated here as a child, following his father, who had followed his uncle, who arrived here in the 1930s.

Many Pakistani Americans were shaken Wednesday, some convinced that the arrests were the result of a misunderstanding and that the men who were being held would eventually be cleared....

Some in the community see the Farooqia Islamic Center as a threat to traditional Muslim values....

Why didn't they say so before the arrests?
