The 'Anti-Profiling' Agenda And Its Dangerous Effects On Our Security

Topics: Understanding Islam

This morning in FrontPage, Robert Spencer explains how Nancy Pelosi, John Conyers, and Keith Ellison want to make us all less safe:

[...] Representative Keith Ellison (D-MN) has been named to the House Judiciary Committee. Ellison said in a statement: "I look forward to pursuing a progressive agenda in the committee, including the restoration of American citizen's civil liberties that have come under increasing attack over the past six years."

The American citizens Ellison, the nation's first Muslim congressman, has in mind are likely Muslims who charge that they have been subjected to unjust scrutiny and inconvenience in the aftermath of 9/11. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) shares this view: she has announced her intention to "correct the Patriot Act," and wants to criminalize scrutiny of Muslims at airports and elsewhere: "Since September 11, many Muslim Americans have been subjected to searches at airports and other locations based upon their religion and national origin. We must make it illegal." Helping make it illegal with Ellison on the House Judiciary Committee will be John Conyers (D-MI), the new chairman of that committee. "The policies of the Bush administration," he has declared, "have sent a wave of fear through our immigrant communities and targeted our Arab and Muslim neighbors."

[...] Pelosi, Conyers, and Ellison by all appearances seem less concerned about any wave of fear that may be sent through American non-Muslims by continued jihad terror activity on American soil. But just this week there have been numerous indications that that jihad activity is continuing:

Would we really all be safer if the one and only element that is common to all jihad attackers - a devout attachment to Islam - were ruled out of bounds as an object of consideration by law enforcement officials? The anti-profiling initiative that is sure to begin soon will necessarily be predicated on the proposition that there is no more reason to be concerned about devout Muslims than about devout Presbyterians or devout Amish.

Unfortunately, the evidence leads in exactly the opposite direction.

Read more here ..., and become better informed about what the Democrats are planning to do that defies logic and will drastically affect the government's ability to protect you and me - Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Simply put, Christians and Jews have not declared war against the West, only radical Islam has. If Christian groups were creating acts of terror, I would have no problem being profiled in order to keep myself, my family, and my countrymen safe. The Democrats and supporters of radical Islam, like Keith Ellison for example, have a different view.

Do not be fooled. The Dems' anti-profiling agenda is about only one thing; Muslim votes. We are not worried about devout Presbyterians or devout Amish, we are worried about devout followers of radical Islam.
