Rep. Peter King's Hearing on American Muslims: How Radical? How Dangerous?

You all should read the al quida manual I found on our own border patrol site. It states very clearly their own agenda to infiltrate our government secretly. Becoming our own Reps, and changing our laws.
This man is right to address this early, before its too late. He knows the enemy, do you really know them?

Let's be blunt. Muslim radicals -- more accurately called Islamo-Fascists -- are a fifth column. Their longterm goal is to undermine our government and society by imposing Sharia, Islamic law, on the country. It may seem like a monumental task, but little by little they are making progress.

In several Western countries, e.g., Britain, Muslims have introduced Sharia family law to resolve disputes. Although Sharia there does not carry any official weight, 20 years from now governments may yield to pressure to give Sharia official sanction.

However, political correctness -- taken to its extremes by the international leftist set -- poses the greatest danger. PC is the modern-day equivalent of appeasement. The leftists will urge Western governments to placate the Muslim community by officially recognizing Sharia. Well, that's the beginning of the end.

When Tony Blair asserted that Islam is a religion of peace, he was following in the footsteps of a predecessor, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain (1937-1940). We know how disastrous Chamberlian's appeasement policies turned out. Are we going to repeat the same mistakes with political correctness? Stay tuned and watch as history repeats itself.

We do not want any part of our country turned into the same situation as some communites in france. Where french police is not welcomed and are barred going into the muslin neighborhood to keep peace. Their thought is that they can do whatever they want. Their forum is too take a little now and spread as fast as they can to gain control of more neighborhoods. Check it out. Muslims in france.

WHEN DID THE USA LET A KNOWEN BAG MAN FOR SIEN FEIN JUD....WAIT JUST A SECOND WHAT ARE WE DOING THE FOX IS GARDEING THE HEN HOUSE

As a very liberal Democrat, I believe that the Muslim community here and around the world has not done enough to expose the terrorists. I do not not believe that decrying backlash against Muslims is the same as condenming the terrorists. However, holding hearings is just a stunt to get Mr. King some press. Either infiltrate the mosques or confron the leaders directly. Muslims in America need to step up and help prevent further terrorism.

Rep King is being totally unfair in his concerns about the Muslim community. The issue is not Islam, it is fundamentalism. Fundamentalism is a point of view taken to extremes. There are fundamentalists in EVERY religion. Timothy McVeigh's attack on the federal building is the result of long simmering frustrations, aided and abetted by extremist materials, including the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"--a notoriously anti-Semitic text. Within racial groups, there are a number of white supremicist groups, some whom claim to be "Christian" in their views, but they are NOTHING like true Christian faith. There are people training their kids to emulate Hitler, and others who have acted on Hitler's ideology, such as the attack on the Holocaust Memorial. There are Jewish extremists, too--some of which are being recruited right here in the US. Some of the most aggressive of the Israeli settler movement...the ones you see in images, heavily armed and beligerently demanding their "rights" in Israel, are originally from New York. The IRA claims to be Catholic, and except for a few deluded bishops whose ethnic loyalties supercedes their faith, have no claims to be Catholic. And so on, and so on. If we want to be safe, as a country, we must repudiate such extremism. Compassion, and the inclusion of all people into the mainstream of American life are the most effective anti-extremist tools we have. People of whatever persuasion who feel like they belong to the society in which they live are not fertile grounds for radicalization. Exclusion, scapegoating and isolating people are the true sources of radicalization. Rep King is playing right into the game plan of angry, disaffected people; his hearings will accomplish nothing beneficial, except name recognition for the congressman. Good job, congressman. I hope you feel it is worth it.

Talk to the Fort Hood survivors and the families of the ones that were killed.

Talk to the students of the Lubbock, TX college and their parents about the young Saudi Muslim just arrested last week for plotting Jihad.

It is an unfortunate reality, but this is our world today.

You would think that America could and probably is infiltrating into radical islamic groups to flush out those that pose a threat to America's safety and security. Lets have faith in Homeland security which is getting better each day it studies the challenges imposing the American way of prosperity

I listened to the testimonies on CSPAN yesterday, nothing in the mainstream media today of those fathers who lost their sons recruited here in the US. Its too bad everything has come down to the Democrats or Republicans. If Congressmen, especially one whose district was severely hit with deaths of Americans at 911, receive information and they can't hold hearings without offending someone then this country can kiss its rear goodbye. We need to speak out pro or con, we need to find the truth, whatever it is, and we need a sorely irresponsible media to get back on track.

Most seem to ignore that the greater threat is completely domestic, non-Muslim. Timothy McVey , Ted Kozinsky, those shooting abortion doctors or congress women had nothing to do with Islam. 100,000 Americans a year die from medical mistakes ranging from mis-labeled drugs to outright malpractice, and another 100,000 per year due to hospital contracted infections. That's 4,000 PER WEEK, equal to 200 airliners crashing EACH WEEK!! But we don't put the effort or money into changing this that we do the TSA and trying to prevent one airliner being attacked. Our fear of Islam is childish. Islam is not the threat. The threat is AlQuieda and our our own ineptitude. If we really wish to create a conflict with Islam, King's witch hunt/ crusade is surely the way to bring it about----get them as paranoid of us as most of use seem to be of them.
