NMA: Peter King’s Muslim hearings irk Islamic communities

March 10, 2011 6:42 pm

Republican NY Congressman Peter King will open a hearing on Thursday that will investigate the so-called ‘radicalization’ of Muslims in America.

King suspects Al-Qaeda is recruiting terrorists within the US, and that Muslim citizens aren’t doing enough to report extremist behavior in their communities.
Though the threat of homegrown terrorism is real, critics feel King is unfairly vilifying Muslims, equating his hearings to modern-day McCarthyism.

The issue is even drawing attention among celebs. Kim Kardashian took to Twitter over the weekend to support protesters in Times Square.

But King still stands by his message, suggesting it doesn’t make sense to look for Islamic extremists any place else besides the Islamic community.

King should look at the evangelical community, too. Evangelicals have killed doctor's and blown up planned parenthood clinic for many years.

The right wing militia movements should also be scrutinized by his panel.

Peter King starts a Joe McCarthy style investigation

Imagine  if the Democratic Party wanted to investigate evangelical chruches when some of their brethren were blowing up Planned Parenthood clinics and killing doctors.

Rep. Peter king is the one full of bull

The bellicose Rep. Peter King, the hawkish, maverick Long Island Republican, blasted a "disgraceful" Eric Holder for opening an investigation of CIA interrogators and criticized his own party for what he described as a weak kneed response to the move.
 
"It’s bulls***. It’s disgraceful. You wonder which side they’re on," he said of the attorney general's move. He described the Holder investigation as a "declaration of war against the CIA, and against common sense."

King is the the ranking Republican on the House Committee on Homeland Security and a member of the House Select Committee on Intelligence.
King defended in detail the interrogation practices — threats to kill a detainee's family, and or to kill a detainee with a power drill — detailed in a CIA inspector general report released yesterday.

The reality is there have been a litany of other illegal practices the CIA has engaged in and some of them were authorized by Vice President Dick Cheney with bogus legal opinions penned by John Yoo.

"You're talking about threatening to kill a guy, threatening to attack his family, threatening to use an electric drill on him — but never doing it," King said. "You have that on the one hand — and on the other you have the [interrogator's] attempt to prevent thousands of Americans from being killed."

This is typical fascist talk that would appeal to the most hardened Nazi: the end justifies the means.
