9-11 Senate hearing makes no mention of Islam
It appears political correctness has invaded this year's 9-11 Memorial hearings on Capitol Hill:
No mention of radical Islam was made by any senators during Monday’s Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing — uniquely held at the National 9/11 Memorial & Museum in New York City, NY — days before the 18th anniversary of the Islamic terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.And what was brought up instead?
Post-9/11 domestic instances of Islamic terrorism were also ignored, including but not limited to the attacks in Chattanooga, Fort Hood, Orlando, and San Bernardino. The only references to ideological dimensions of Islamic terrorism were made by former Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff, who referred to “jihadi terrorists” in three instances.
“Climate change poses an existential threat” to America and Earth, declared Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI), ranking member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. He linked “climate change” to 9/11 in his opening remarks [...]This same Democratic senator also used another diversionary tactic to water down the serious issue of Islamofascism:
Peters also singled out “white supremacist violence” as a national security threat, with Chertoff similarly warning of “white supremacists.” “A rise in violence driven by racism, religious discrimination, and other hateful ideologies has altered our perception of domestic terrorism,” said Peters.I'm sure he's not talking about radical leftists either. Even gun control was turned into an absurd issue by Democrats. But what's really disturbing is if no Republican senators showed the guts to bring up the challenging issues of Islamic jihadism. Coming as this news is just before 9-11, it's very disturbing indeed, and does nothing to help combat the continuing crisis around the world.

Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan said this
1982 June 18 at a rally at the United Nations:
“Much of the world has chosen to view
Israel’s actions in Lebanon through
the prism of selective morality.
Many were silent when Syrian troops
and armed radical bands occupied the
country. They were silent when Syrian
missiles were placed in Lebanon.
They were silent when death and destruction
rained down on Israeli settlements.
They were even silent when they Syrian regime
destroyed one of its own cities in response
to entrenched political and religious opposition.”
“But the world finds its collective voice
when Israel sets out to liberate Lebanon from
those who would use her as a pawn in their
political machinations; and let us never forget
that the introduction of foreign troops in
Lebanon would never have been possible without
the provision of weapons by the Soviet Union.”
