Muslim Group Wants Lieberman Sacked from Homeland Security Committee, Upset Over Report he Compiled on Islamist Extremism.....

I see this as nothing less than a ringing endorsement for Joe Lieberman...

WASHINGTON (JTA)—An Arab-American group called on Senate Democrats not to return Sen. Joe Lieberman to his chairmanship of the Homeland Security Committee.

The letter from the Arab American Institute to U.S. Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.), the majority leader, cited in particular a report on Islamist extremism and the "Homegrown Terrorist Threat" completed in May under Lieberman’s watch.

"While this committee report appropriately observed the value of outreach and engagement with Arab Americans and American Muslims as vital to securing the freedom and safety of our nation, the overall findings of the report make the dangerous and unsubstantiated claim that the threat posed by violent extremists now comes ‘increasingly from within’ the United States and falsely characterizes Arabs and Muslims in America as ‘susceptible to radicalization,’ " said the letter from institute President James Zogby.

The letter also cites the reported involvement of Lieberman (I-Conn.) in a sequel to the controversial documentary "Obsession," a film that critics say unfairly tarnishes broad sectors of Muslim society as extremist.

And if the Arabs are successful, this will set the precedent for future witch hunts against Jews in politics.

hmmm, the film Obsession provides only passages from the Qur'an (those same passages that are preached in every mosque found on the globe)which guides the Muslims towards dominating the world and film clips showing Muslims carrying out these same instructions...

Muslim complaints of the film clearly shows their hypocricy....The fact of the matter is Muslims do not want the truth about Islam to reach Infidel eyes and ears....That is why they complain...
