But seems like the arab countries could use his electoral platform more than us.
Perhaps, but he's a US citizen and therefore one of us, not one of them.

The incumbent is Marge Roukema. Isn't she somewhat of a RINO?

One of the other Arabs in Congress is Dan Issa, a Republican from California (and a target of an alleged bomb plot by Irv Rubin of the JDL). Arabs and non-black Moslems seem to lean strongly Republican, we're idiots if we excoriate them for what wacko radical terrorists or nations do.

They might vote Republican, but how long before they make women wear that awful black sheet thing? People love to condemn the 'right wing Christian fundies' for their conservative beliefs regarding women but say *nothing* about the Muslim beliefs regarding women (which are even MORE extreme than any Christian fundie could imagine). Remember children, there has been no 'enlightened schism' in Islam as of yet.

You make the assumption that there is a big difference between the radicals and the 'moderates'. I did too, but no more. The only difference is means, not the goals - Worldwide islamic state.

I agree, but at the same time, we must hold those who have directly or indirectly supported or encouraged these murder-suicide bombers accountable, and we must win the war we are fighting right now.
