I'm not a fan of Tancredo and I don't think he should have made the comments about nuking Mecca. But Hugh's comments have gone to the other extreme. Is Hugh really saying that if Al Qaeda took over Saudi Arabia (which is not an insignificant possibility) and declared Mecca to be the capital of Al Qaeda Arabia, that we shouldn't contemplate bombing Mecca?
As far as having CAIR on his show, Hugh made a similar mistake a couple of years ago when he had a spokesman for the PLO on his show. I'm still waiting for him to explain that one.
