"Top Democrat Slams GOPs Islamophobia After Boston Bombing"
By Zack Beauchamp on Apr 21, 2013 at 10:20 am Think Progress
KING: Listen, the threat is coming from within the Muslim community in these cases. In New York. thats why Commissioner Kelly has 1,000 police officers out in the community. Unfortunately, he gets smeared by the New York Times and the Associated Press, but the fact is weve stopped 16 plots in New York because we know that al-Qaeda is shifting its tactics If you know a certain threat is coming from a certain community, thats where you have to look.
WALLACE: Senator Feinstein, your reaction to this?
FEINSTEIN: Thats exactly where they will look. I dont think all of this is very helpful. I think the important thing is to get the facts. Let the investigation proceed. The FBI has very good interrogators. They know what they are doing. I believe that they will put a case together that will be very strong. With respect to whether we are doing enough in the Muslim community, I think we should take a look at that, but I dont think we need to go and develop some real disdain and hatred on television about it.
Some slam!!!!!! How about starting of by Rep King you have made a career out of stoking fear at all levels in this country especially against the Muslim Community. Its kind of confusing to those of us who want to protect this country as you say you do, why you have never called for an investigation of right wing terror groups who on a regular basis have harmed or many law abiding Americans either through acts of violence against Mosques, Womans health facilities, or against Gay/transgender American Citizens...??"
