EXCLUSIVE: US Representative Tom Tancredo in Response to U.S. Nuke Threat: We Could Nuke Mecca

Exclusive: US Representative Tom Tancredo in Response to U.S. Nuke Threat: We Could Nuke Mecca

15 July 2005: He is a no-nonsense House Representative from Colorado, a staunch critic of the federal government's lax immigration and border enforcement policies, and one who recognizes the clear and present threat posed by Islamic terrorists inside the United States. In an exclusive interview today with Pat Campbell, host of AM 540 WFLA said yesterday he would request a briefing from the Justice Department on information it has on plans revealed by WND this week for a nuclear attack on the U.S. by al-Qaeda. Responding to a question by Mr. Campbell about our possible response to such a threat, Representative Tancredo said that there are things that could be done to pre-empt a threat, and in response to an attack as well. One response would be to take out one of their holy cities with a nuclear bomb if it was clearly proven Islamic terrorists were behind such an attack.

Through the courtesy of AM 540 WFLA and Mr. Patrick Campbell, the Northeast Intelligence Network is offering the audio excerpt from this interview. Click on the link below to download the MP3 audio and listen from your computer. The Northeast Intelligence Network applauds Representative Tancredo for all of his anti-terrorism efforts to keep our country safe. We also applaud Mr. Campbell for asking the tough but necessary questions - AND getting the answers.

Here is the quote from Tancredo!    "What if you said, if something like this happened in the United States, (and it was the result of extremist Muslims) then we could take out their Holy Sites!"

"Tancredo's PAC deals primarily with border/imm issues."

Hey, that doesnt stop Dane from lumping the two together!!
After all...Dane says that Buchanan is a puppet of Tancredo!

LMAO!!!!

No problem there.

This is truly a "Big Tent" opportunity.

All participants are enthusiastically welcomed, including bunker busters, Daisy Cutters, MOAB's, clusters, etc.

Just watch out for secondaries when the caches in the basements go off...

Perhaps you are not aware of coalitions being built on particular issues. Buchanan agrees with Tancredo on immigration (as do most Americans according to most polls), not the war in Iraq.

Uh Aetius, pat and bay buchanan run tancredo's pac.

pat buchanan as shown in reply #68 of this thread has written an appeasment tome to the islamofascists.

this dog and pony show tancredo is running is full of manure.

Get back to me when tancredo doesn't suck off the buchanan milking machine.

Agree completely.

There is no "neat and clean" (painless) way to win this particular war. We must be prepared, and willing, to inflict maximum damage.

The problem is he's an elected official who just made the next recruiting video for Al Qaeda. There's a reason our elected leaders don't walk into a room and start hurling profanities at someone like the premiere of China.

That's right and we have a lot more weapons than they do and can sustain our campaign. Do as Truman promised "A rain of ruin that the likes the world has never seen" will befall them.

"Wouldn't a better strategy to stop terrorism in its tracks be to ban the importation of oil from any ME country that refuses to clamp down "

Oil is fungible. The price is the same world wide. The big problem is that our refineries were built to refine sweet crude.

As I said earlier, Tancredo isn't so full of himself to think he would actually get the nomination. He has said he would consider a run for the purpose of trying to inject conservative values into the debate over immigration and border control, which in turn would be for the purpose of holding the eventual nominee accountable on the issue.

Despite the issue at hand with the nuke remarks, all but the pro-open borders crowd shoud be able to appreciate that, because we've seen how horrible Bush is on these issues, and there is no reason to expect McCain to be any better. Maybe someoe else who has a shot at the nomination will take a position that at least resembles conservative values.

To answer your question about whether he would wait if he were President; yes, I do think he would, because he did not suggest preemptively nuking Muslim holy sites.


And lets be honest. The reason Tancredo elicits such passionate responses is because he has dared challenge Bush and the party on immigration. That makes him a hero to some, while others think of him as a traitor for daring to point out how bad Bush is on immigration. They apparently think he is going to scare away voters who in truth would never vote Republican anyway.

That he has supported Bush on just about everything else, including tax cuts, the war on terrorism, Soc Security reform, and judicial picks( though obviously he has no vote on them) apparently carries no weight with those who would tar and feather him for his immigration/borders dissent.

Again;

I guess this would be case of people being fickle about it and assuming that there could be a controlled nuclear exchange and whatnot.....

Thank you for reminding one of our resident quislings that, according to the polls, more Americans agree with Tom Tancredo's assessment of what needs to be done about the border than agree with the war in Iraq.

Aetius, I admire your desire to debate Dane. It's a lost cause, it seems as though he doesn't have too much going on upstairs. Please see my reply to him #161.

Yup. Our policy should be, you set off a bomb, we blow up one of the mosques we know you're using. Period, end of.

And btw, folks, nuking Mecca would be a mild response. It isn't that big a city. Nuking Damascus or Tehran, not that would be MAD, and that's where we should be aiming our invective.

yeah yeah yeah point to the ACU ratings.

At least Mike Pence isn't certifiable or talking about nuking people...

At least Mike Pence doesn't have the Buchanan's running his PAC.

At least Mike Pence is ELECTABLE. At least Mike Pence wouldnt set conservatism back 40 years.

the guy is a nut. He has shown himself as such.

And the One Million Dollar question is Who??? To tell you the truth I don't trust any politician at this point. We've been told that we must win the WOT (not faltering failing blah, blah) How can we win the WOT if NOBODY in Washington wants to close the damm borders? (end rant)Very frustrating to say the least...

"We can win without murdering millions of civilians."

Too bad their "civilians" are future terrorists.

Cook 'em.
