[Dinah Lord]

Levin: now citing some obscure JTTF clause about sharing info and reporting to local authorities.

Also problems with follow up capabilities.

Here we go again with the loyal Muslims in the military and our society.

Diversity of our military and our nation is a great strength.

Citing the Muslim Public Affairs Council statement in the Huffington Post.

Levin is all over the dear Muslim Americans.

Now, he’s citing a statement by Pat Robertson? Is Pat Roberts being investigated here or the Ft Hood terrorist.

Levin wants to try Pat Robertson! The statement can be found here:

The panel is now going off on Pat Robertson.

[icwhatudo]

All the panelists now attacking Robertson.....even the woman. Sigh.

What about HASSAN??????????????????

[Dinah Lord]

I’m just listening as I type and when they went off on Pat Robertson with such venom I could only sit here with my mouth open.

You didn’t hear that kind of venom when they were talking about Hasan!

[Conservative Vermont Vet]

JUST SO MUCH MORE PC, B.S. IN INVESTIGATING, POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.

Just been watching about the last hour, but that's all is needed.

EVERYONE is tiptoeing around the fact about all the MODERATE Moozies there are and how they are "QUIETLY" co-operating with local LEA and Feebs to report the bad apples in their communities. BULL SHEEEET!

Most of the witnesses go on to say that the "MODERATE" Muslims are "concerned" about being "stigmatized" as engaging in "Non-Muslim" conduct and thereafter "ostracized" if they voice VOCAL opposition (WHICH WE ALL KNOW IS HAPPENING, DUE TO A DEARTH OF PUBLIC CONDEMNATION) to fellow radical Moozies.

NO ONE is willing to address that this is the problem.

IF--as we keep hearing, which is in itself more BS--that the MAJORITY of Muslims are "Moderate" then it should not be a problem (strength in numbers) for ALL of "Moderates" to come out and condemn ever act of Islamic Terrorism which occurs, not only here, but throughout the world.

WAITING............Tick tock, tick, tock. zzzzzzzzzzz!!!! Crickets chirping

And there lies the problem which no one will address; the majority are either NOT moderates, or at least they condone the action of the "radicals" through their complete lack of showing that their primary allegiance rests with support for the UNITED STATES, as opposed to Islam and Sharia.

I don't know if its possible (and I doubt it is) but until we can tackle what is being preached in the Thousands of Mosques and taught in the Hundreds of Muslim schools, it ain't ever gonna get better.

[Dinah Lord]

Now Lieberman is asking about the Ft Hood Jihadi, the four phases of radicalization, Al Awlaki and the concept of the ‘virtual spiritual sanction’ to commit jihad.

You can find his whole report here:

Now, they are talking about the emails from Hasan to Al-awlaki emails and the whole ‘they were research’

Is the US Military doing enough to protect it’s bases given the extremist fatwas to attack military posts. Is there more we should be doing?

General Keane: the fort hood incident is so different because it comes from within - not from without. It’s more for the organization within to stop the threat before they occur not the guard at the gate.

[Dinah Lord]

Senator Collins - what should the military do if they find a radical muslim in their midst?

What about counter messaging?

Do you see chances for the army to intervene in phase 1 of radicalization?

In short - yes.

[roses of sharon]

Thanks for the info Dinah.

Where are you listening/watching?

Thanks!

[Dinah Lord]

Collins believes there was a failure to connect the dots, share info and the results were a horrific terror attack in the Ft Hood case.

[Conservative Vermont Vet]

I don't know the credentials and experience of the witnesses, but I don't see anyone with the knowledge of Islam such as a Robert Spencer or Daniel Pipes.

While they claim this to be a serious "Inquiry", Lieberman et al, are themselves being PC, by not having a witness of their caliber & expertise of Islam who could and would, open their eyes about what is going on in the US including the Mosques, schools, CAIR, etc.

[Dinah Lord]

You are so welcome, roses of sharon.

I am listening/watching on FoxNews.com

It sounds like it’s winding up now.

[Robe]

PC is still at work in this committee, they are looking to devise “Guide Lines” in which to ID and to “Reform” perceived terror suspects.
What is needed is just the use of good old common sense.
This BS about his contacting the Yemen Imam for “Research” is absolutely absurd !!!
Do you think that during WWII that a Army Major communicating with a operative of Japan or Germany would be given a pass??
BS across the line ....

[Dinah Lord]

No, these were all counterterrorism experts.

Besides, don’t look for our congresscritters to investigate ISLAM. They are too blinded by their worship of diversity and political correctness.

What Pat Robertson said was the truth. “Islam is a violent, political system bent on the overthrow of the governments of the world and world domination.”

[Dinah Lord]

You got that right, Robe.

[Dinah Lord]

And there lies the problem which no one will address; the majority are either NOT moderates, or at least they condone the action of the "radicals" through their complete lack of showing that their primary allegiance rests with support for the UNITED STATES, as opposed to Islam and Sharia.

Straight up.

[JimSEA]

Expert witness Bernie Ward likely will testify that Hasan was, in fact, just doing research.

[Dinah Lord]

Expert witness Bernie Ward

Hahahahaha!

[La Enchiladita]

I am curious as to why this thread is listed only under the “Consipiracy” category....???? Was that the choice of the original poster who has not commented since??

[NowApproachingMidnight]

They were talking about whether it was isolated or a conspiracy (read many) actors.

[La Enchiladita]

Are you saying someone on the Senate committee was using the word “conspiracy?” I just wanted to clarify this, because the category “Conspiracy” here at FR is used in a derogatory sense, to ridicule a concept and consign discussion to the dustbin, so to speak. IOW, Coast to Coast A.M. type of stuff, which this is not.
