Rep. Ellison: 'People Have to Step Up' Against Muslim Ban (Attacks Cruz, not Trump)
Newsmax ^ | December 9, 2015 | Cathy Burke

Muslim congressman Keith Ellison says he rejects Sen. Ted Cruz's refusal to denounce Donald Trump's call to ban Muslims from entering the United States, declaring "this is the moment where real integrity is on the line."

In an interview on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports," the Democratic House lawmaker from Minnesota declares "people have to step up."

"This is the moment we're in and I don't accept Sen. Cruz saying, 'Well, I'm not going to pile on, I don't really agree,'" Ellison said. "No, this is the moment where real integrity is on the line.

"And people have to step up and say that persecuting a religious minority and scapegoating them is absolutely unacceptable. That's the moment we're in."(continued)

Ellison is the poster boy as to why Trump is mostly right.

Oh, like Ellison does when mobs of blacks go around attacking innocent white people, beating them into comas or to death?

If I was interviewing Ellison, the first question I’d ask is:
As a Muslim, do you support sharia?

Actually, could be a highly entertaining opportunity. Figure out if Ellison is Shia or Sunni, then just get the other sect to whack him. More fun to play with the internal fault lines and watch them take each other out.

Precisely. Cruz is the one leading. Ellison knows Cruz is the real threat.

They are so close to destroying this country they can taste it. They are absolutely losing their minds at the resistance they are finally receiving.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

Rep. Ellison: 'People Have to Step Up' Against Muslim Ban

No Rep. Ellison, People have to demand our "Representatives" be sworn in using the Bible which doesn't permit lying, like the Quran does!

Islam Permits Lying to Deceive Unbelievers and Bring World Domination!

Better yet - as a Muslim, do you support taqiyya?
