 LadyPredator rated 13 months ago- Message to PC police: We have a responsibility to monitor U.S. Mosques
I've been calling for this for years. It is good to see others calling for it also. By Douglas MacKinnon, a former White House and Pentagon official and author of the novel America's Last Days:
New York Republican Congressman Peter King has become the latest target of those who value political correctness and pandering over the national security of our nation.
For recently speaking his mind and worrying about the influence radical Islam has in this nation, Congressman King is being predictably attacked by the left-leaning media, by the Democratic National Committee, and certain Muslim organizations. What exactly did Congressman King say to incite the anger and rage now being directed at him? Only things that seem to be of concern to a great many Americans.
Among his statements, Congressman King said, There are too many people sympathetic to radical IslamWe should be looking at them more carefully and finding out how we can infiltrate themI think there has been a lack of full cooperation from too many people in the Muslim communitytoo many Mosques in this country do not cooperate with law enforcement85 percent of Mosques in this country are controlled by extremist leadership.
Did the Congressman say anything that is not true? Is what he said not verified by a recent Pew Center survey, by the U.S. government, and by a number of news accounts of homegrown Muslims being taken into custody for plotting against our nation. Do facts no longer matter when it comes to protecting the United States from within?
According to that recent Pew Center survey, a quarter of younger Muslim-Americans support suicide bombings in some circumstances. Thats right. They support suicide bombings. 25% of Muslim-Americans refused to give an answer when asked if they had a favorable or unfavorable view of Al-Qaeda. 5% of Muslim-Americans said they had a favorable view of the group that attacked the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and tried to attack the White House or Capitol building.
If we accept the Pew Centers estimate that there are 2.35 million Muslims in the United States, then 5% of that number would be 117,500 Muslim-Americans who have a favorable view of Al-Qaeda. A number that should not only send chills down our spines, but cries out for eternal vigilance.
