Texas Congressman calls for “hearing on the radicalization of Christians”

22

Subversion. I have been covering the jihad daily since 911, and I can tell you straight up that there has never been a terrorist attack by radical Christians screaming "Jesus akbar!" or invoking the name of Jesus at any time. Ever. But there have been thousands of jihadist attacks on the West (and in Muslim countries).

This is an attack on the good by the evil. The hatred of the good for being the good. The Muslim Brotherhood groups in America must be rubbing their hooves in glee. They have their tools doing their work for them.

I would equate this Congressman's call for hearings on the "radicalization of Christians" with the Third Reich calling on hearings on the "radicalization of the Jews."

Texas Congressman calls for "hearing on the radicalization of Christians" (Jihadwatch)

Recent jihad plotters include Naser Abdo, the would-be second Fort Hood jihad mass murderer; Khalid Aldawsari, the would-be jihad mass murderer in Lubbock, Texas; Muhammad Hussain, the would-be jihad bomber in Baltimore; Mohamed Mohamud, the would-be jihad bomber in Portland; Nidal Hasan, the successful Fort Hood jihad mass-murderer; Faisal Shahzad, the would-be Times Square jihad mass-murderer; Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, the Arkansas military recruiting station jihad murderer; Naveed Haq, the jihad mass murderer at the Jewish Community Center in Seattle; Mohammed Reza Taheri-Azar, the would-be jihad mass murderer in Chapel Hill, North Carolina; Ahmed Ferhani and Mohamed Mamdouh, who hatched a jihad plot to blow up a Manhattan synagogue; and Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the would-be Christmas airplane jihad bomber.

All of them and many others invoked the Qur'an and Sunnah to explain and justify their deeds.

Recent "radical Christian" acts of violence committed by people who invoked the Bible and Church teaching to explain and justify their deeds include, uh, gimme a minute…

"During anti-Muslim hearing, Dem calls for ‘hearing on the radicalization of Christians,’" by David Edwards for Raw Story, June 20:

Texas Congressman Al Green (D) says he wouldn’t mind Rep. Peter King (R-NY) repeatedly calling hearings on “radical Islam” if he would also conduct a “hearing on the radicalization of Christians.”

During a Wednesday House Homeland Security Committee hearing on “The Radicalization of Muslim-Americans,” Green wondered why the chairman had only focused on one religion.

“If you agree that radicalization exists within all religions to some extent, would you kindly extend a hand into the air,” Green, who is the grandson of a Christian minister, asked the witnesses testifying before the committee. He noted that “all the hands are raised.”

“I don’t think that most people oppose hearings on radicalization,” the congressman explained. “I do not, not — N-O-T — oppose hearings on radicalization. I do oppose hearings that don’t focus on the entirety of radicalization. And if you agree that we have Christians, as has been mentioned by more than one member, Christians who become radicalized, they become part of Islam and they become radicalized as is being said, why not have a hearing on the radicalization of Christians?”

He added: “I do think that it is a problem of perception. People who see the hearings and never hear about the hearing on the radicalization of Christianity have to ask themselves, ‘Why is this missing?’ Why don’t we go to the next step and ask, how is that a blue-eyed, blonde-haired, white female in the United States of America can become radicalized to the point of wanting to do harm to this country? We don’t have that type of hearing. That’s the problem.”

Green pointed out that he had often been mistaken for a Muslim because of his appearance.

“I do know what it feels like to look like a Muslim in the minds of some people and to be demeaned in a public venue,” he said. “I look forward to the day that we’ll have that hearing that deals with the radicalization of Christians in America.”

An analysis (PDF) by [the Hamas-linked] Council on American-Islamic Relations of King’s first four hearings on Islamic radicalization determined that the chairman had “failed to produce the promised evidence to support his stigmatization of America’s Muslims.”

“King’s record of leveling unsubstantiated allegations and biased attacks on the Muslim community and habit of naming people with records of anti-Muslim bias as potential witnesses and information sources denies him any current credibility in discussions about American Muslims and homeland security,” the [Hamas-linked] group concluded.

We must stop Christians from flying airliners loaded with passengers into tall buildings. Evil Christians have no boundaries and they must be stopped at all costs.

The guy is a dope if he is suggesting looking for “radicalized Christians” but he seems to be referring to the Christian born American woman Colleen Renee LaRose (born June 5, 1963), an American citizen charged with terrorism-related crimes, including conspiracy to commit murder and providing material support to terrorists AKA Jihad Jane, AKA Fatima LaRose.

The Congressman is suggesting we also investigate Christians who are converts to Islam as potential terrorists. That sounds like a good idea.

If Mr. Green is referring to groups like Westboro, he’s wasting his time! The Westboro nuts are a minor annoyance at best.

This “Democrat” looks and sounds like a very unplesent person indeed.
Perhaps he failed to notice that Christians didn’t fly those planes into buildings,
the other side did,and as Christians are the persecuted ones, our reactions are
proportional.
Any white person with few beliefs or a grudge can turn into a muslim, and eventually
a terrorist, but then they become a radical white muslim , like a Ottoman Janisary,
and just as deadly. The rabies that is islam corrupts all those who come under it’s shadow, unless they have the strength to escape.
He seems to need reminding, an evil Christian preacher is evil despite the teachings
of the gospels, an evil muslim is just being a faithful servant of an evil tyranny.

BRING IT ON!
I too want to know about the radicalized Christians and Jews! Where are they? We have plenty of evidence of Islamic fundamentalism. So they better have an equal amount of evidence.
Meanwhile, check out this videoclip of a Saudi University Study: 23% of Arab Children have been Raped; 46% of Arab Students are in Homosexual relations.

I bet most of these have never even read the Quran, nor do they know what it teaches (hate). This book is an abomination, and so are the killers/terrorists/jihadi’s/low life. God doesn’t “KILL” innocent people. In fact he doesn’t kill anyone. Wicked jihadi’s do. God said “Thou Shalt NOT Kill”. Whoever wrote the Quran (Muhammed) is a wicked wicked man, if that is what it promotes.

This baboon has clearly been slaving in the hot sun on the Marxist plantation too long, where he’s “learned” that Good vs Evil is tit for tat and fairness means, among other things, that if you want to investigate or punish evildoers you have to investigate or punish the good as well.
Sorry, Marxist baboon. Truth and logic won’t run and hide every time they smell you coming. Your rhetoric is the intellectual equivalent of swinging from branches with your ass hanging out and flinging poop at everyone who walks by.
The only reason you can chatter away from the floor of the U.S. Congress like you do is because other Marxist chattel in your Congressional district, who breed like mosquitoes, have decided to use you for a surrogate to steal things from people who work for a living and give it to them. They call it “voting” and consider such criminal enterprise the best part of “democracy”.
This is why democracy without principles is a catastrophe and why civilized men need to purge this nation of cultural saboteurs like your colorful constituents, the ones who think it’s just fine to vote my money into their pockets.
If I had my way they would all be chasing each other around with spears in a part of the world where they never have to worry about running into greedy white Capitalists. They could show the whole world what peace and prosperity look like without any impediment to their agenda. (I’m guessing it would look like a Tarzan movie without the hero.)
Tell your constituents not to waste their time using their angry tribal sex-drive to make voters and using their votes to club justice to death so they can rape, rob, and plunder without fear of consequences. Either they will become victims of their own “success” (when the sheep are gone and nothing but other wolves remain) or they will discover voting isn’t how we decide things anymore – once the animals have nearly taken over the farm. Ignorance plus majority vote will be quite useless then. Intelligent minority outrage (up range) will be the new currency of the new realm.

I wonder how long time ago Al Green got duped to convert to Islam? There are so many deluded blacks who has no grasp what Islam will do to them if it would run the land. Sadly so many blacks are being fooled to believe that Islam respects them, and Islamic societies are their secret promised land. Nothing can be further from truth. Over 140 million slaves got captured in the Muslim slave trade, and how many millions of blacks are slaves to this day under Sharia law is not officially known, but estimated to be in millions.

Rep Al Green represents part of Houston. I’ll bet he is a buddy of Sheila Jackson Lee, who also represents part of Houston. His statement that we should have a hearing on the “radicalization of Christians” is very Sheila-Jackson-Lee-esque.
I wonder if he came up with the idea after talking with her?

Apparently if you feel bad after a Muslim has done you wrong then you are biased.
Can’t have the truth coming out, now can we?

Al Green is a socialist with a safe seat. Texas legislature has packed his a Jackson-Lee’s district with 80% democrats.

This mr. Green character typifies the “democrat” progressives. Completely deluded, completely out of touch with reality, completely devoid of critical thinking and not able (and/or willing) to see facts.
He even looks like a very unpleasant person. In fact he looks like a typical Muslim fanatic, complete with hate-beard.
Maybe he is confused with all the hundreds of Anglican bishops with exploding underwear we hear about every day. Or all those Buddhist suicide bombers. Or maybe those masses of Kalashnikov-waving Zoroastrians. Or perhaps the Jews that slaughtered all these innocent Nazis.
If this guy was as tall as he’s stupid he could drink his coffee from the rain gutter.

Green’s bringing up Christian radicals is the typical bull crap you hear from the defenders of Islam. This makes me think that Green is either a secrete Muslim, or bought and paid for by the Muslim Brotherhood. Somebody should have asked This Islamic excuse maker how many terrorist attacks by by Muslims vs Radical Christians there have been over the last 20 years.

Al Green does not understand group dynamics, politics, and human behavior and he should not be a state representative. The reason why they have hearings on radical Muslims is because Muslims are plotting violence against Americans, are gaining ground in America, and are ideologically opposed to the concept of America. America was founded by Christian radicals, aka the Puritans. They came her for freedom to be Christian in their own way, which was opposed to the way of the Anglican church in England.
To be a Christian radical is to be a mainstream American. To be a Muslim radical is to want to desrtoy America, freedom and justice and enact Sharia law, where the only justice is to serve Allah, aka your own lusts fueled by demonic purpose. It would be like America turning full circle back to the oppression of zealous Christians now under the guise of Islam rather than Anglicanism or the Catholic church.
This makes me believe the theories that Islam was instigated by the Vatican as a way to conquer the Arab lands, much as they invented Catholicsm to conquer Europe and wherever else it took root, such as South America. Islam is taking root in Africa and Southeast Asia. It is looking to beocme a serious threat to Catholic dominance and yet, they seem like two peas in a pod, twisting holy scrpitures to suit money making entities of world conquest.

He is a new kind of Progressive, one who lives in a Fantasyland. He is too much of an idiot to get re-elected. His moronic remark should get him much notice in his district in Texas. In the next election he is a dead duck in the water!
