On December 9, 2004 the Associated Press reported, "an Islamic civil rights group [CAIR] on Thursday asked federal authorities to step in and investigate whether two separate fires at U.S. mosques this week were hate crimes. In a letter to the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Department, the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations called on the government to investigate blazes at mosques in Arizona and Massachusetts."
