U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., told a CNN audience Sunday morning that he will “challenge the basic premise” of upcoming congressional hearings on domestic Islamic radicalization.
Ellison, appearing on CNN’s State of the Union with Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King, R-N.Y., said the hearings will fuel the idea that “America is at war with Islam.”
Ellison and King, who have been publicly sparring about the hearings for months, kept their debate civil with show host Candy Crowley. “He’s somebody you can talk to,” Ellison told Hot Dish earlier in the week.

Islam is at war with America.
The polite thing to do is to make war back.
It is hard to be at war when one side cannot name the enemy and is willfully blind.
Even if the community in question (Islam) is responsible for 99.9%+ of the violent radicalization? Come on, Keith. Americans know the score.
If nothing, I am polite.
The world is at war with Islam.
Or better put Islam is at war with the world.
The world isn’t at war with Islam because most stupid leaders feel Islam can be dealt with without war.
It cannot. Historically the only way to stop the rise of Islam is to kill enough of them off to the point where they cannot fight.
lol
In between the loony comments about radical right wingers, Ellison is actually taking a lot of heat in the comments section of the Red Star Tribune.
From another expert....
“And thirdly and more importantly,” Choudary said, “the Muslims don’t want democracy and freedom. Democracy and freedom are anathema to Islam and the Shariah.”
I am surprised that they are allowing comments on this article. They’ll probably shut it down if it really goes bad for Ellison.
Sure thing Keith, lets hold hearings on Amish terrorism. It shouldn’t take more than about 30 seconds.
islam is at war with America. islam is an evil cult of oppression and murder Mr Ellison an we will not allow it to destroy America and freedom and liberty
The first Muslim elected to the House, Rep. Keith Ellison, Minnesota Democrat, said that while it’s proper to investigate radicalization, he thinks it is wrong to single out one religion.Hey Keith, if you're a real Muslim, you lie through your teeth. Islam is not a religion, it is a political system. A system designed to rule the USA under Shariah law.“To say we’re going to investigate a religious minority, and a particular one, I think is the wrong course of action to take,” Mr. Ellison said. “I don’t want them to be able to stand up and claim, you know, see, we told you, America is at war with Islam. That’s one of their main recruiting arguments.”
If you really are a Muslim and believe in the Quran, you know that to be the truth.
Education is here. Go be shocked.
“The enemy within”
get about 1000 911 victims to do all the talking
They’ll be wiped clean by tomorrow.
