But MOST terrorists are MUSLIM!

And ALL terrorists sympathize with the Muslims, even the IRA or ETA.

Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) became heavily emotional as he spoke about a 23-year-old New York Police Department cadet and paramedic named Mohammed Salman Hamdani.

That's nice.

Where are his tears for the other almost 3,000 innocents?

““Mohammed Salman Hamdani was a fellow American who gave his life for other Americans. His life should not be just a member of an ethnic group or just a member of a religion, but as an American who gave everything for his fellow Americans.” “

And in Iran, he would have been shot for doing that.

What’s your point?

Unless ‘American’ muslims stand up and openly condemn the terrorist acts perpetrated by their fellow muslims all over the world, we can only assume that these are nothing but taqiyya tears.

We have failed to recognize the threat since 1979.

Not to quibble, but more like 1968 with Sirhan Sirhan or 1972 in Munich with the Olympics. More interesting perhaps, is that given a multiple choice quiz as to who assassinated Bobby Kennedy, 1) Right wing extemists tied to Timothy McVeigh, 2) A white supremist who used an illegal automatic weapon while standing on a grassy knoll in Memphis or a Palestinian who was making a political statement, MOST Americans would NOT choose #3.

I was thinking, he’s giving one example of one Muslim that was trying to help Americans,

but that proves nothing, because multiple counter examples can be provided showing Muslims as terrorists.

Both are irrelevant to the question at hand - are mosques in America preaching radical [real] Islam to their attendees and inspiring them to attack America.

Ellison began pulling up his socks when attention was directed his way.

*tsk, tsk* He isn't making good sock choices.

If he had chosen his socks properly, he wouldn't have to pull them up.

Then again, he didn't choose the proper party, either, so this is not surprising.

Ellison’s masters in Saudi Arabia could not have been pleased by this!

How embarrassing it must be to all the Democrat financiers in the middle east to see their hired Democrat lackeys $$$ in Congress embarrassing themselves with all this blubbering. Crying over of extremist islam! Totally bizarre!

It brings to mind the question, to the Nazis, a Jew didn't have to believe in Judaism, to be considered a "Jew."

It's the same, do we consider an Arab a "Muslim" just because he's a Arab, even if he doesn't really believe in Islam?

Here's Naveed Haq, who killed one and wounded 8 in a shooting spree at The Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle.

My wife was CFO there until about a year before the shooting. If she had still been working, she would have been shot. Her friend is dead.

"Prosecutors also introduced as evidence audio recordings from 10 phone calls that Haq placed to his family after his arrest. In the calls, recorded by the King County Jail, Haq told his mother he was “a soldier of Islam.”

Here is the you tube of Ellison.

I think the guy sitting to his left (behind him) is texting during Ellison's statement, guess the statement was not all that riviting to those in attendance.

Fake tears, fake god, false prophet....total BS non-religion. Mohammedanism means living a lie and living idiocy. Means being impoverished unless you have oil fields the infidels developed for your sorry asses

They’ll have to do that at the next State of the Union address.

When will they start banning burqas like they already do in France and Holland? Will we have to wait until one of them blows up and takes a number of innocent bystanders with her/him?

My thoughts on it exactly, if he is that weak he needs to be out of the office he holds!

What kind of muslim name is Keith Ellison? Meet my new al-quida friend Jason Wilson. This congressman needs to resign. He’s not stable enough to be a congressman or intelligent enough.

Actual Muslims tend to regard the Nation of Islam as some sort of whacked-out blasphemous cult. The way typical Christians view the Westboro Baptist Church.

It is hard to believe some of the unemployable trash that blue districts oftimes elect to the House of Representatives.
