>      We heartily commend U.S. Rep. Peter King, incoming Chairman of the 
> House Homeland Security Committee, for taking on political correctness and 
> announcing that he will hold hearings on the radicalization of American 
> Muslims.
>
>      One of the points Rep. King recently made (see New York Observer 
> article below), is that there are many Muslim leaders who do not cooperate 
> with law enforcement in the effort to combat Islamic terrorism.
>
>      Right on cue, CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) denounced 
> Rep. King's plan for hearings.
>
>      Have you signed our Citizen Appeal to the new Congress? We need to 
> send a message that we support leaders like Rep. King. We will deliver the 
> petition to the new Congress in February. Please add your name today.

>      Long Island Congressman Peter King appeared in the friendly confines 
> of Fox News this afternoon to defend his plan to hold hearings on the 
> radicalization of American Muslims under his new role as chairman of the 
> Homeland Security Committee.
>
>      "We have to break through this politically-correct nonsense which 
> keeps us from debating and discussing what I think is one of the most 
> vital issues in this country, that we are under siege by Muslim 
> terrorists," King said. "And yet there are Muslim leaders in this country 
> who do not cooperate with law enforcement. We have the reality that 
> Al-Qaeda is trying to recruit Muslim American and yet we have people in 
> the Muslim community who refuse to face up to this and will not cooperate 
> with the FBI or the police."
>
>      The Council on American Islamic Relations has denounced King's plan 
> to hold hearings, but King pointed to the example of Najibullah Zazi, who 
> planned to detonate an explosive in the New York City subway system, Times 
> Square bomber Faisal Shahzad, and Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan as proof 
> that such inquiries are necessary. He also cited the rise of 
> radicalization among Muslims born in European countries.
>
>      "The American media, American politicians, the inside elite refuse to 
> discuss this issue. When someone like myself says, 'Let's raise this 
> issue' I am immediately denounced as a bigot, as a McCarthyite," he said, 
> adding, "Liberals wanted to believe that George Bush was the cause of 
> terrorism."
>
>      King said that he is in close contact with Muslim leaders and said, 
> "They are good people but they just don't seem to appreciate the necessity 
> of why they should be coming forward."
