The FBI is confirming that this morning they began a number of "raids" against the homes of antiwar activists, claiming that they are "seeking evidence relating to activities concerning the material support of terrorism."

The growing trend is a challenge to the IRS from the churches, and may jeopardize their all-important tax-exempt status. But some pastors and church leaders said they are willing to defy the law to defending their right to freedom of speech.
