Rep. Peter King may be disappointing

Diana West points to an article on Politico where Rep. Peter King is trying to assure "nervous" Muslim community members they have nothing to worry about regarding the upcoming hearings on "radical Islam". I think the following sums it all up:
In a move that will come as a relief to Muslim leaders, King told POLITICO that he’s not planning to call as witnesses such Muslim community critics as the Investigative Project on Terrorism’s Steve Emerson and Jihad Watch’s Robert Spencer, who have large followings among conservatives but are viewed as antagonists by many Muslims.
I suppose he's not going to invite Frank Gaffney either? To be fair though:
Possible witnesses, according to King, include Dutch critic of Islam Ayaan Hirsi Ali
But that still doesn't excuse his failure to invite some of the experts on the Koran itself. So how can we be certain this'll be the powerhouse it ought to be?

Update: and now, both Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller explain why King WILL be a major disappointment. You know what? King is a disgrace. That he would cave in so badly, it's clear he's adding himself to a list of farcemongers who can only let down.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
