The US Department of Homeland Security is reviewing security grants awarded to Muslim organisations and places of worship. This action is based on a report from the pro-Israel Middle East Forum (MEF), which accuses the groups of having links to "radical" or terrorist-affiliated entities. The DHS has reportedly already cut $8 million in funding across dozens of projects based on these claims. Civil rights groups like CAIR have condemned the move, labeling the MEF report as politically motivated and unsubstantiated.
