Rep. Peter King (R-NY) says, “Recent terror arrests make the case for even MORE hearings on Muslim radicalization”

Recent arrests of Muslim lone wolves plotting terror attacks in several states underscore the rationale for a series of congressional hearings on Muslim radicalization, the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee said.
HS TODAY Rep. Peter King (R-NY) has held four hearings on Muslim radicalization, one of which he co-chaired with Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) in the first-ever joint hearing of the Senate and House homeland security committees. That hearing, held Dec. 7, examined the threat radicals pose to the US military from inside and outside of it, particularly in the wake of the Fort Hood massacre of November 2009.
The arrests of the terror plotters in the past week demonstrated the extent of the problems associated with Muslim radicalization and thus the cause for the hearings, King contended. Authorities recently arrested Craig Baxam, a former US Army soldier, for supporting terrorist group Al Shabaab in Maryland, and Sami Osmakac, who conspired to attack military troops in Tampa, Fla., in two separate cases.
“As disturbing as these arrests are, they certainly do not come as a surprise,” King said in a statement. “Within the past year, I have convened two House Homeland Security Committee hearings, part of a series of radicalization hearings, to examine these very topics: radicalized Muslim Americans joining Al Qaeda affiliated Al Shabaab and the Islamist terror threat within and to the US military community.”
King continued, “At one of the hearings in December, the committee learned that the threat of radicalized military personnel becoming involved in terrorist activity is very serious, with radicalized soldiers launching two successful attacks on military targets and the recent disruption of at least five recent terror plots involving military insiders and 11 involving former military personnel or those who attempted to join a law enforcement or intelligence agency. At this same hearing, we heard testimony reinforcing that Al Qaeda, its affiliates and its adherents seek to target military personnel here in the homeland.”

On July 27, King convened a hearing on the efforts of Al Shabaab, based in Somalia, to recruit Muslim Americans. Testimony at that hearing indicated more than 40 Americans have joined Al Shabaab in recent years.
Commenting on the case of Baxam specifically attempting to join Al Shabaab, King expressed concern that the former solider was deployed to Korea working as a signals intelligence cryptographer. At the same time, Baxam was undergoing radicalization, which could have led to the exposure of sensitive data. Authorities have received information that Osmakac traveled to Kosovo in his plot to learn ways in which to attack military personnel.

In addition to the July 27 hearing on Al Shabaab, King convened a hearing on Muslim radicalization in US prisons on June 15 and a hearing on countering Muslim radicalization within Muslim-American communities on March 10. On Dec. 7, King held the fourth and latest hearing on Muslim radicalization, which focused on the radical threat to the US military, with Lieberman.

I don’t know where we would go if not for BNI? Even on my ultra Conservative sites, they just don’t touch down on this very real threat we are under from these Muslim head hunters! It’s either I’m a Southern racist, which by the way I am when it comes to these Muslims or I’m hateful and cold hearted, and I just don’t give a flying rats ass what they think. But one thing is for certain, we have and are getting less of a voice on this subject from our conservative leaders every day, it lessons. Without King and the few others who are thankfully keeping it up front and center on the floor, I don’t for a moment doubt that they would have sold us out to these Muslims already. So! Thank You BNI, God Bless You, for the hard work and most surely the sacrifices your making for all of us here. Your our one true champion and we are just adamantly thankful for you
Keep it up, your doing great! And God’s Speed <3
JH, now you know the reason I started this blog. Kept getting kicked out of discussion forums – CONSERVATIVE discussion forums.
I know it all to well BNI, and it’s disheartening. I’m watching fellow Christians complaining every day about this very thing, but when given the option to do something about it, they continue instead to whine, and they back away choosing to do nothing. I’m afraid I can be harsh when they do. I offered free of charge to email their elected state leaders a message they wanted to pass down concerning this very subject here 6 weeks ago, and not a one has sent me their message, I offered to send it every day until they heard back from them, where as they could then send me an email with a new subject? So with all the crying and moaning I see folks pouring out there, very few will do anything to back it up, and that infuriates me. I cannot stand this kind of complaining and moaning, that has absolutely no substance behind it…Sadddd!
like ive said before muslim men a so pissed off with the west because western men are so much better looking. these photos are proof that inbreeding is rife in these countrys. stop having sex with your sisters and mothers and you guys might have half a chance of looking normal. sorry i left grandma out of the equation.
and camels and sheep yet they have the audacity to call dogs a filthy animal.
camels and sheep are extremely dirty animals
We haven’t seen a Valentino (The Sheik) yet.
The tree of liberty is nourished by the blood of patriots and tyrants. God Bless All.
Paine lived in France for most of the 1790s, becoming deeply involved in the French Revolution. He wrote the Rights of Man (1791), in part a defense of the French Revolution against its critics. His attacks on British writer Edmund Burke led to a trial and conviction in absentia for the crime of seditious libel. Despite not speaking French, he was elected to the French National Convention in 1792. The Girondists regarded him as an ally, so, the Montagnards, especially Robespierre, regarded him as an enemy. In December of 1793, he was arrested and imprisoned in Paris, then released in 1794. He became notorious because of The Age of Reason (1793–94), his book that advocates deism, promotes reason and freethinking, argues against institutionalized religion and Christian doctrines. He also wrote the pamphlet…
He spoke truth to power before it became popular.
Why Peter King is not running for the job of the president of the USA to restore respect and dignity to the office and bring some sense to the country’s image?!
He would be a strong leader which the country needs desperately.
When argument fails, there’s always the finger.
How true that statement is, lol. I would also like to include reason and logic to that equation. It sure does a helluva job towards defining the term “dhimmwitted” also.
muslimes can not stand it when the truth about them is exposed.
Same thing applies to the one in the w.h.
America needs more like King and one less highass usurping the Constitution.
Still have the gut feeling the self-annointed one and his murderhood brothers will come up with some way that will enable him to declare martial law and suspend the Nov. election.
you are not the only one who thinks that. and we cannot sit still fot that
I applaud Rep. King for holding these hearings. I wonder how long it will take him to understand that every Muslim is a potential terrorist?
he understands that. it’s getting others to understand it that is the problem
Sometimes I think only Alan West and Peter King are the only sane pols in the country!
michelle bachman, santorum and even ginrich are well aware of whats going on and any of the three would do a lot to put us back on a sane path. there are a lot of politicians mostly on the right that see the dangers but are outnumbered. i hope to help change that come election time. forget ron paul for he blames israel and us for 9-11.
As a soldier myself, I am appalled at not only the creeping inroads made by muslims into the US military community and other areas of national life, but also the creeping inroads made by political correctness into the highest levels of our leadership, resulting in some very insane, very dangerous, and downright stupid comments, actions, and policies such as the labelling of the FT. Hood massacre as an incident of “workplace violence.” If our military leadership is so enslaved to P/C, multi-culti norms and standards along with timidness in honestly informing our political leadership on important issues as opposed to telling them what they want to hear, how in hell can they be entrusted with conducting our nation’s national defense and have the trust of the rank and file soldiers they lead? Issues like this make me glad to have reached my 21 year milestone as a soldier. I can walk away from it all at my discretion if there is no end to this viral infection of P/C.
BTW, The bitch with the pink sign in the last photo can stick it where the sun don’t shine.
yea buddy
Better yet… Stick a broom handle up her (blank) were the sun doesn’t shine.
Well said Randy.
Kill political correctness before it kills us!
I just cannot understand why people just want to close their eyes to the truth and to reality. Then when something horrific, like 9-11 happens, they’re all like “why is this happening?” or “how come no one warned us?” Bunch of “bury your head in the sand” syndrome zombies! Sometimes, I just want to scream it from the tops of the mountains or shake them until they wake up! But no, even if they do listen, people like us are usually labeled alarmists or paranoid or something. Just makes me so darned angry sometimes!
RPB, there is some kind of report getting a lot of press in the muslim and left wing press about the threat of Islamic terrorism being “miniscule” in this country. As far as I can see, the whole thing is made up, based on blatant falsification of the facts from obscure sources.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest! It’s all part of their plan to go along with the “religion of peace” lie! It also goes hand in hand with those who blame 9-11 on the Bush administration and/or those who would try to convince people that Mossad and the Jews attacked us on 9-11. The sheer stupidity of people like that just amazes and confounds me!
MOSSAD attacked us? since when? i even heard in the days following that no Jews showed to work that day. i wonder where that came from
dragon, that false rumor came out of the Middle East. I happen to know a Jew who died in the North Tower that day.
Now there’s a real lady. She’s definately in denial. Where’s all the white radical Christians that make car bombs and expolsive vest? You just don’t see them do you? Media must be keeping it quiet, or maybe ther REALLY is something WRONG with the muslim religion.
I’d like to slap the shit of that dhimmi flipping the bird at the camera. Just my islamoloathia kicking in.
Pazuzu, “Islamoloathia?” I like that one.
I know what you mean. My hand was itching to slap her too and then break her frigging finger.
Let the witch try giving the finger to the “Allahmists” in Syria! Amazing what freedom of speech in America means to someone trying to destroy us.
All Hail Peter King!! He is about the only legislator with the backbone (I cleaned that up!) to call these thugs & killers what they are. I wish we could clone him.
me too who could use about 1000 of him
Thanks to Rep. King for standing up and speaking the truth!
Only idiots,traitors and terroists,”liberals and muzzies”, would argue against scrutiny of muscum. Like the whore in the picture flipping the finger, she needs a deport to sharia compliant Afganistan.
Forgot to add that with the deport to Afganistan that finger of hers would most likely be chopped off and stuffed up her ass.
SELF-DIRECTED, VIGILANTE JIHADISTS.
Memorize those words.
Self-directed, vigilante jihad is normative Islam thoroughly approved by Mohammed, rather than an aberration or ‘extremism’.
You heard it here.
Moslem roulette: find the jihadist in the crowd!
Which one has the bomb under his clothes?
Is it the blond fellow, the red head or the one that looks Pakistani? Or African?
Which one is the jihadist?
The one with the DEAD EYES and no soul!!!
well that about covers all of the photos.
just sent him a Thank You for all he has done and to tell him again that when he speaks all Real American Patriots listen.
the lady using her finger for freedom of expression should take a little vacation to egypt or pakistan and after she is gangraped and beaten maybe she will come back and join our awakening if she makes it back.
Shalom. I missed you. Very much. Very very much.
this is complete bullshit, you know and the sad thing is, Fox ‘the Fair and Balanced News’ station (unlike the liar news networks) is still and always has been, dishonest to us.
Because that is their purpose.
There is no such think as ‘Islamic Radicalization’. Islam is a criminal, terrorist religion to all – not only Infidels and Infidel nations, to their own people. Because that is the nature of satanism, the worship os Satan, of which Islam is only one (albeit Large) sect.
This is so depressing. But just because it is so, doesn’t mean we have to let it continue to be. We can change it.
Abraham Lincoln said we had that right, and he was right.
We should listen to Honest Abe, no one really really listened to him. He was not a Freemason, (reason he was assassinated probably, like JFK and Martin Luther King Jr.)
remember this quote from one of the award-winning journalists of his day, (and it’s only got worse since then, not better, the lies have flown thicker and more blatant).
“There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dare to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the street looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities, and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”
John Swinton, former chief of staff, The New York Times, in a 1953 speech before the New York Press Club
(ha ha…he got that much truth in when they weren’t ready for it, at his fete and toast!) Haha!….not a laughing matter is it
Isn’t she supposed to be pressing down on a TNT plunger?
I would like to know how “moderate” Muslims and their dhimmi Left cousins explain that there is no Jihad while the daily preponderance of evidence shows otherwise. CAIR, I know you’re reading this. Please take this opportunity to explain. You won’t. Because you can’t. Fact is this chronic denial is designed to stall the West’s awareness until hopefully (for them) they will be too entrenched to ne denied their prize.
I would like to wear that woman’s middle finger around my neck fer sure…Goes to show their willingness to debate on an open forum don’t it?
i wonder what the loser cafe latte “intellectual” throwing the middle finger with the completely nonsensical sign thinks about the saudi blogger that is going to be beheaded for blaspheming a pedophile? were do these people come from? oh yeah, academia!
We need hundreds of Representatives, and senators like King. Kick the rest out.
After King finishes investigating the Muslim propensity for violence, I’d like to see him delve into the reasons for a 65% increase in attacks on Jews in the U.S. It’s an outrageous statistic, but no one seems outraged by it. I think he’ll find that the increase in attacks on Jews matches the growth in Muslim immigration into the U.S.
The bitch that is flipping the bird is lucky that Joseph McCarthy is deceased.
This blows their “new found” possible law out of the lake — you know — the one about talking like the rag heads are dangerous and it being hate speech?
