During Hearing on Radical Islam, Democratic Congressman Al Green Calls for ‘Hearing on the Radicalization of Christians’
From Raw Story:
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.”
From Newser:
"People who see the hearings and never hear about the hearing on the radicalization of Christianity have to ask themselves, ‘Why is this missing?’" said Green. "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."
Long Island's King, meanwhile, remained unapologetic about singling out Muslims, notes the Star-Ledger. “To deny that there’s any correlation between the Muslim faith and the biggest threat to this country today defies credulity," said the chair of the Homeland Security panel at one point.
