LEWISTON, Maine — U.S. prosecutors are not pursuing charges against a man who rolled a pig's head into a mosque.
Brent Matthews faces a state misdemeanor charge of desecration of a place of worship. State prosecutors also won a court order requiring him to stay away from the mosque.
Matthews, 33, has insisted the July 3 incident was intended as a joke. The pig's head rolled into the mosque as about 40 people were praying. Many Muslims consider pork and pork products unclean and offensive.
FBI agents and federal prosecutors looked into federal hate crime charges but ultimately decided to let the matter rest with state prosecutors.
"We're not going forward with our prosecution," Assistant U.S. Attorney General Halsey Frank said.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations had contended the act was an insult upon Islam
Lewiston is home to more than 2,000 Somali refugees, who began moving there in 2001 for affordable housing.
Matthews could face up to a year in jail if he violates the court order requiring him to stay away from the mosque.

thats so random :-\
America has started attacking mogadishu.....its late news now but it has signs of becoming another major war crisis. Wow....there are al-qaeda militants everywhere. I don't believe there is a huge connection of underground militants called al-qaeda, just people who are inspired by them. Haha and in that case you'd have to be pyscho........
The US airstrikes which reportedly killed large numbers of people in southern Somalia on Sunday and Monday - whether they are jihadi militants or civilians is not yet known - were the first overt military action Washington has taken in the country since 1994, the year after bloody clashes between UN forces and warlords and the grim Black Hawk Down battle which left 18 US servicemen dead. What happened to militant Islamism in the intervening 13 years is instructive. Somalia provided all the right conditions in which it could thrive: a traditional Islamic nation, a failed state, complete freedom in which to develop, a plethora of Muslim associations under which it could hide. And yet the jihadis have failed repeatedly to take hold. As the respected analysts of the International Crisis Group concluded, this is not because of foreign counterterrorism, but because of Somali resistance.
Pentagon officials said the targets were al-Qaida members who organised the attacks on US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998. Top of the hit list was a Sudanese explosives expert called Abu Taha al-Sudani, thought to be the head of al-Qaida operations in east Africa. But the issue here is not Washington's right to strike back at its sworn enemies, but how many innocents are wiped out in the process. One of the instruments used was extremely blunt, an AC130 gunship which strafed a village near the Kenyan border. The tactic is well proven in Afghanistan and Iraq: kill everything that moves within given coordinates and then see who you have got afterwards. It's the military equivalent of drift-net fishing.
America is getting too much involved.....lol what happened to russia?
