Robert Spencer of JIhad Watch reminds of the importance of this election.
If the Democrats win control of the House as expected, Charles Rangel
(D-NY) will become the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee.
Here is the text of a Dhimmi Watch post from February 2005:
Ranking House Dhimmicrat Charlie Rangel repeats what by now are well-worn pieties re Islam. From NewsMax, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist: Top House Democrat Charlie Rangel said Tuesday that it was an act of discrimination to label groups like Hezbollah "Islamic terrorists."
Asked about the refusal by some European governments to declare Hezbollah an Islamic terror group, Rangel told WWRL's Steve Malzberg and Karen Hunter, "To call it Islamic terror is discriminating, it's bigoted, it is not the right thing to say." Read more.
Wait, there's more...
If the Democrats capture control of the House as expected, John Conyers (D-MI) will chair the Judiciary Committee.
John Conyers introduced H. Res. 288 in May 2005. While it speaks of all three "Abrahamic" faiths, it is clearly designed, under the guise of "tolerance" and condemnation of "bigotry," to stifle free discussion of the elements of Islam that give rise to violence and the supremacist impulse that we see all over the world today. Here is the text:
Text of My Resolution Regarding Religious Intolerance
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives condemning bigotry and religious intolerance, and recognizing that holy books of every religion should be treated with dignity and respect.
Whereas believers of all religions, including the Abrahamic faiths of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, should be treated with respect and dignity;
Whereas the word Islam comes from the Arabic root word meaning “peace” and “submission”;
Conyers also did CAIR's bidding in working to deny an Indian official's entry into the US.
And then there's Khaled Saffuri.
