Unreal!
RADICAL RIGHT -- REP. KING: THERE ARE 'TOO MANY MOSQUES' IN AMERICA, WE SHOULD 'INFILTRATE' ISLAM. In 2006, President Bush appeared alongside then-House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King (R-NY) and heaped praise on the Congressman, calling him a "strong, strong chairman" who was "doing a fine job to help us protect this country." The Politico reported yesterday that King, now ranking member on the Committee, is now directly attacking Muslims. In a recent interview, King said: "Unfortunately, we have too many mosques in this country. There are too many people who are sympathetic to radical Islam. ... We should be finding out how we can infiltrate." Throughout his tenure in Congress, King has regularly stereotyped and launched racist attacks at Muslim-Americans. You "could say that 80-85 percent of mosques in this country are controlled by Islamic fundamentalists," he said in 2004. Muslims are "an enemy living amongst us," he added. "They won't tell what's going on in the mosques. They won't come forward and cooperate with the police." Gen. John Abizaid recently stated, "the battle of words is meaningful, especially in the Middle East to people." With members of Congress like Peter King, we continue to lose that battle.
