Allen West: US congressman with his heart in the East ( interview )
Jerusalem Post ^ | HERB KEINON

Posted on 08/28/2011 7:28:50 AM PDT by ventanax5

You are meeting tomorrow with the Palestinian Authority leadership. What is your message to them?

There is one very simple question I would ask: Do you really believe you are a credible peace partner? Because I think with the reconciliation pact with Hamas, that is a very telling thing. The fact is that they are trying to back-door the process by going to the UN for a unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state, when we don’t have a firm recognition of Israel, we don’t have the renouncing of terrorism. I would also ask, what is a Palestinian state? It is something that never existed before.

And even the word Palestine.

You take it back to Palestina – which comes from Philistia – which was nothing but a declaration by Roman Emperor Hadrian in 73 AD.

This is a region, it is not anything tied to a certain group of people; it would be just the same as saying we should have an Appalachian state, separate from North Carolina. It’s those questions I’d like to ask.

And that’s not all- watch this short video wherein
Col West states eloquently why Muslims- all Muslims are a danger to America.

Everybody likes to talk about how smart or not smart various public figures are. THIS is what a smart person sounds like. Oh my! Impressive video.

Jonathan Pollard has been in prison now for 25 years. Back in my inner-city neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia, we had a saying when we played basketball: “No blood, no foul.” I think he has sat in the penalty box for long enough.

Kinda lost me there. I would point out to the Congressman that John Walker has been in prison for 2 years longer than Jonathan Pollard. Would Congressman West argue that he's been in long enough and should be released? "No blood, no foul" and all that?

Espionage is espionage regardless of who you are spying for. Those who commit it should not be pitied for the punishment that they get.
