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!"

You do realize, don't you, that the only thing the militant Islamics respect is force? Everything else, they laugh at. If you don't realize this, you should Google Osama's declaration of war, and see, in print, how he laughed at Clinton for all his efforts at appeasement--not only laughed, but he made it clear those efforts utterly disgusted him. One of these days, we might have to take our gloves off. You just can't win by taking an etiquette book to a war on terror.

Nuking Mecca is WHAT the terrorists WANT..

Yep. That would be their greatest recruiting tool of all-time. And the strategic effect it would have on protecting America would be a big fat zero.

With this soundbite, Tancedo has not only given al-Jazeera a soundbite that will be played over and over to demonize America, he's also guaranteed that he ill never, ever be President of the United States. Tancredo supporters should be upset about this statement.

"I would rather he said something about overthrowing Iran or the Saudis."

Well, Al Queda wants to overthrow the Saudis too so we'd be helping them out there. As far as Iran goes, being a Shia regime, I doubt Al Queda would cry too many tears over that one either.

No, we should take it to the source. We all know what the source is: Mecca.

don't bring common sense into a Tancredo thread!!!

:)


Let the Tancredites have their little wet dream about nuking Mecca. It isn't as if Tancredo himself will ever have his finger on the button....

I agree Mr. Chamberlain, we should attempt to understand our enemies, not destroy them

Hmm tom tancredo's PAC bosses(pat and bay buchanan), say we should placate the islamofascists.

Why they hate us; It's our own fault by pat buchanan

We can win without murdering millions of civilians.

Even if it took a million to win, it would be worth it,
far more than a million American lives, lost because of
Islamic fanatics and backward guilty democrats.

Certainly, if the ChiComms can threaten us with nuclear
weapons over Taiwan, we can threaten Islam with the destruction of Mecca and Medina in the event that ISLAM
attacks us. For make no mistake, those who would attack us
are attacking in the name of Islam, for the goals of Islam.

Tancredo is among the most conservative member of Congress.

He's almost certainly more conservative than our President.

I see, genius.

So it is your belief that Churchill's intention was to randomly kill millions of German civilians and that Chamberlain's mistake was opposition to this mythical Churchillian program?

You are a bona fide moron and a bloodthirsty genocidal maniac to boot.

If that's the case, then he should apologize, and explain that he got carried away. I am 100% in favor of targeting Islamic leaders (whether religious or secular) who foster or condone terrorism, but it is stooping to the level of the terrorists to bomb a holy site (of any religion) as retaliation or to "send a message." If terrorist leaders or their aiders and abettors are hiding out in a holy site, it becomes a tough question, since we can't let them shield themselves with their religion, but bombing the shrine when it doesn't have any terrorists hiding there would be like the British bombing the Catholic shrines of Lourdes or Fatima as retaliation of an IRA bombing.

 

 

 

 

Just my response to your claim that an apology is in order.  Please rethink your logic.
