Allen West Confronted by Koran-Wielding CAIR Executive

At a townhall meeting hosted by Congressman Allen West on Monday evening in Pompano Beach, the Q&A segment of the meeting featured a Koran wielding Nezar Hamze, Executive Director of the Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR). Hamze confronted Congressman West and asked him to point out where in the Koran does it give marching orders to Muslims “to carry out attacks against Americans and innocent people”. West quickly pointed out that the Koran was written long before America even existed and that it does indeed tell believers to kill infidels, and then proceeded to chronicle a lengthy list of historical Muslim acts of aggression. Congressman West closed his retort by referencing the Fort Hood shootings and 9-11 attacks, saying that his first hand experiences on the battlefield has given him insight into the tactics that Islamists use before telling Hamze not to “try to blow sunshine up my butt” with his criticism of him. West took offense to Hamze’s amateurish criticism of his stance on radical Islam and concluded by telling Mr. Hamze to “put the microphone down and go home.”

Wish I could have understood what he was saying on the video.

Lousy filming job, IMHO.

May Col. West live long and prosper!

>>>I can’t wait for Allen West to get a few years under his belt<<<
How many years did Obumer have under his belt? just sayin’

LTC West is a true student of history. He knows what it says and what it means. He is a major league threat to everything Libs believe in. They will soon begin working overtime to destroy him.

“Moslems think they’re fooling someone.”

CAIR, and other radicals, try to use our freedoms to eventually take away our freedoms, or they would, if they could.

Sharia Law in our country is their goal.

I'll see your Palin / West 2012 and raise you Cain / West 2012. That is if the Palin thing doesn't work out. LOL

Lousy filming job, IMHO.

El Sharko filmed it and he had to move up from the back to the room to the front to get the shot. There's something more to the story. Right before the CAIR guy, Joe Kaufman of www.AmericansAgainstHate.org (anti-Sharia warriors) mentioned CAIR's efforts in fund raising for terrorist groups. Sharko moved forward to get Hamze's reply and people were also going nuts around it. Don't assume something based on a few minutes of taping. It was INSANE in there.

With a US government made up of people like Allen West there is nothing that we as a nation could not accomplish. In the end it all comes down to leadership and vision.

That was surprisingly impressive. The facts just rolled off his tongue.

West is class all the way. He handled that insipid rodent like a pro and just left him spinning around trying to get back to his talking points. This guy is pure gold.

How many years did Dwight Eisenhower have under his belt? Granted, he did hold higher command, but no previous political office. He apparently did ok. Served two terms.

Oh...My...GAWD!!!!

Sorry Sarah, I think I have a new candidate.

[ArmyTeach]

He is a hero - bona fide!

[max americana]

Go to his victory speeches on Youtube right after he won the election. Hands-down the most un-pc, rightwing, pro-America speech I have ever heard in regards to elections.

How many politicians will say “peace..through superior American firepower’ in their victory speeches?

[samtheman]

In any case, West should be on the ticket. Maybe even the top, who knows. Too soon for him for that?
