"The narrative that al-Qaeda uses to recruit suicide bombers is that the United States and the West are not fighting terrorism but trying to destroy Islam. Peter King, with his little hearings, is about to make it harder to refute the jihadists' big lie." -- The Kaplan Daily's Eugene Robinson, commenting on New York Rethug Congressman Peter "Right Wing" King's upcoming "hearings" to, let's be honest, question the American Muslim community's loyalty.
Two things should be pointed out. A study by University of North Carolina terrorism expert Charles Kurzman found that in 48 of 120 cases exposing terrorist plots, the largest single source of information was from the Muslim community. Second, Right Wing King's own record as a longtime vocal champion of Provisional IRA terrorists until recently qualifies him as a supporter of terrorism. Ironically, in its heyday, the IRA received much of its weaponry from Muammar Gaddafi. Got that, Right Wing?
