20051231 - Chantal Carnes delivers a lecture during the Muslim
American Society of Tampa's youth retreat on Saturday. The retreat was
to be held at at Cedarkirk camp and conference center in Lithia this
weekend. There will be two speakers, one of whom was once questioned
by the government for hosting a terrorism-friendly website. But
Mohammed Moharram, the head of MASTampa, says his organization is
trying to promote "real" moderate Islam, not extremism. That doesn't
matter to right-wing bloggers, who found out about the event and
publicized it this week; Mohammed has been taking death threats and
abusive calls ever since. (Brian Cassella / St. Petersburg Times)
