Today's headline on MSNBC: "Nothing 'un-American' about Islam hearing, King says".
Good grief! What a WARPED view of a discussion that's in our national interest ... with respect to national security especially! The radical element present and growing in the world IS a serious threat. They DO blow up innocent civilians. They DO declare their intention to kill non-Muslims, especially Americans. In fact, they even kill each other within their religion, gather justification from the same religious text followed by those whom they kill. Theirs is a blind fanatical obsession to kill people simply because they don't think the way they do. It is sick. It absolutely IS an imminent danger. It must be dealt with before it gets worse. For our federal government NOT to look into this growing and IN PROCESS threat would be the irresponsible action.
This is NOT a hearing about Islam! Those running it have NOT proposed that it be. They've said they're committed that it NOT be that. They've promised that the hearings will be about radicalization of people, the result of which is a desire to attack and, usually, to kill mass quantities of Americans ... ALL Americans if they could in fact. Doesn't that sound serious to you? If not, what planet are you living on?
ALL of the attacks and thwarted attacks to cause harm via mass destruction in recent years have come from radicalized Muslims. Therefore, these hearings must include discussions about the PROCESS of radicalizing Muslims. There is NO chance of thwarting this if we're not allowed to talk about that people! Do you just want our government to sit on its hands while radicalized Muslims continue(!) to plan and carry out MORE mass killings here? It's suicidal to think that way because these radical elements are REAL, they REALLY want you dead and they have both the desire and capability to do just that. Do you prefer we stop them now or would you rather wait until they kill your family?
We keep hearing the TRUTH from The Media that we must NOT condemn all Muslims because of the actions of radical elements within the religion. Absolutely true! We're lectured incessantly to ensure we make that distinction so this committee has been careful to state as it's objective the investigation into that radicalized element that threatens our safety and security. If you've ever read the constitution, you know it's their DUTY to provide for our national safety and secuity! They SAY(!) their investigation is NOT about Islam. They attest to this distinction and have promised they'll respect it.
Because of the REAL threat to our safety and security we MUST let them do their constitutional duty. We must ALSO keep an eye on their progress to ensure they DO NOT wander off-course into an investigation into the religion OR Muslims FREELY(!) practicing it.
We Americans and the peers of those committee-persons should all help hold that committee accountable NOT to use this hearing as an excuse to investigate ANY religion apart from whatever associations exist with the teaching/indoctrination associated with radicalizing people. But we MUST NOT use a trumped-up fear of a possibility of overstepping into a religion investigation to prevent us from doing what we MUST DO for our safety and security.
Do you understand that the people we seek to prevent from blowing us up WILL use that argument ("they're going to investigate Islam") to try to keep us from stopping them? Wouldn't you do that if you were they? Of course, they'll use our very own Freedom of Religion rights against us for their dangerous purposes. Do NOT fall for it people! We need to protect our country against this very real threat. We must do it with resolve and respect but we MUST do it quickly.
It's is irresponsible journalism of the highest order for MSNBC to call it an "Islam hearing" when there is no evidence that this committee will or even wants to make it a hearing on Islam. MSNBC is practicing fearmongering and, by it, CAN bring danger upon the American people to the extent that they hinder this necessary investigation into radical elements. THIERS(!) is the only aspect of this so far where exists actual(!) irresponsible, unprofessional, unfair, and even dangerous behavior so far ... NOT this committee!
