Maxine Waters couldn’t find her own bum with a flashlight and a ten man working party. She’s a leading democrat.
“Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-Mont.), a former Navy SEAL Team Six commander and freshman in Congress, is slamming the Obama administration’s conference intended to counter violent extremism.
“I think it’s a slap in the face to Israel,” Zinke, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, said Wednesday during an interview on FOX News’s “On the Record.”
Zinke also accused the administration of inviting “a terrorist sympathizer” to speak at the conference, referring to Salam Al-Marayati, president of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, who said after 9/11 that Israel should be on the “suspect list” for the destruction of the World Trade Center.
He contrasted the invitation from the administration with House Speaker John Boehner’s (R-Ohio) request that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu address Congress.
“I think the contrast is clear. Israel has been our partner in the war on terrorism,” Zinke said. “And certainly, this is why our allies don’t trust us, and our enemies no longer fear us.”................................
