Eugene’s Muslims face added hostility; advocate for understanding

Eugene’s Muslims face added hostility; advocate for understanding: Haytham Abu Adel says Muslims in Eugene are miserable and scared — so much so that a local mosque, the Eugene Islamic Center, recently installed additional locks on its doors and a video surveillance system. The group is raising money to put up a fence around the mosque’s west Eugene property. The added safety measures are in response to a May 8 incident at the mosque just after prayers, when a Eugene man threatened to kill members of the Islamic Center.
