I just looked at the Hutaree site and it is important to really look at their wording on the site. I found some good clues as to what kind of site it is.LOL :

So, the Hutaree call an Islamic member of an associated militia for help? Doesn't make sense.
If they wanted to raid a cell of confirmed anti-American terrorists, they should have started with both house of the U.S. Congress, as well as the anti-American terrorist in the White House.
Dawud Walid, head of the Michigan branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said he was told that the Christian militia group may have been plotting against American Muslims.
"We salute the FBI for breaking up a militia that was seeking to harm American Muslims," Walid said.

Walid said he publicly announced the FBI raids at his group's 10th annual banquet today in Dearborn, which featured the Rev. Jesse Jackson as the keynote speaker.

I know, that line made my hair stand up, too. Apparently, the Hutaree were "planning violence against Muslim Americans," which is supposedly the reason for these multiple raids stretching from Ohio to Michigan. So, the Hutaree call an Islamic member of an associated militia for help? Doesn't make sense.
While they're obviously trying to keep details of the story under wraps, a couple of other stories reveal that it's another BATF operation, with alleged gun violations and seizures.
Here we go again.

I agree. People are jumping the gun on this story. We don't have all the facts like how come they needed so many officers, FBI, and helicopters to make 3 arrests or whatever they made. Why road blocks? Law enforcement does have a job to do. Violence is never the answer and if this is what this group was planning then the FBI is justified.
