A Muslim civil-rights group says the FBI is letting animal shelters, private investigators and even a Midwestern megachurch have access to its watchlist of suspected terrorists. "Defendants share their list with anyone or anything that asks," CAIR's lawyers wrote in one of their legal briefs. Issues over the dissemination of the terrorist watchlist to private entities have come in a lawsuit CAIR filed challenging the watchlist's constitutionality. The broad terror watchlist contains hundreds of thousands of names; the much smaller no-fly list is culled from the watchlist. At Friday's hearing, Magistrate Judge John Anderson mulled making the list of private entities available to the public at large.
