Rep. Peter King warned of Al Qaeda bomb activity days ago

Maybe now that its transpired the so called bomber is actually a british agent ( but that could change again tomorrow lol) shall King have him whipped off on one of them rendition flights to one of those countries who don`t allow human rights groups or the rights in. They could refuel at the usual stop in Shannon. What ever happened the squad of SAS soldiers disguised as locals who were caught red handed planting a rather large bomb in an Afgan market place. Could they be in Morocco, turky or one of those other shitholes being interrogated. I don`t think so. Hope the American people will be demanding answers on this latest one. Oh thats right they`re not allowed to anymore in the interest of National Security.

A Manhattan a chara, Scríobhaim as dhá theanga de ghnáth toisc gur tábhachtach ceann acu agus is Sacsbhéarla an ceann eile. Ná bac leis an nGaeilge ach leis na fíricí. Ní athraíonn Gaeilge, mo thírghrá, do thírghrá, nó aon rud eile an fhíric gur amadán Peter King agus go bhfuil sé ag obair chun fanacht i gCongress, ní chun tusa nó mise a chosaint. Nó an smaoiníonn tusa i bhfírinne go bhfuil seisean níos fearr ag cosaint ár dtíre agus Nua-Eabhraic ná an FBI, CIA, NYPD, ár bhforsaí armtha, 7rl. /// Hi Manhattan, I write in two languages because one of them is important and the other is English. Don't bother with the Irish Language but with the facts. Irish Gaelic, your patriotism, or my patriotism can't change the fact that Peter King is a fool and he's working to stay in Congress, not to protect you or me. Or do you really believe that Peter King is better at protecting our country and New York than the FBI, CIA, NYPD,our armed forces, etc.?

(To know nothing of what happened before you were born is to remain forever a child. - Cicero) ## ( Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it. - George Santayana) ## (Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it. - Winston Churchill) To the poster I can no longer find you are correct, most quote churchill, and I do not dispute your characterization. as well.

BrianO, with all due respect. The pig Churchill did not coin the phrase "Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it." To be sure, that was George Santayana. Churchill had neither the brains nor the morals to come up with a quote like that. Churchill, who presumably is rotting in hell, was responsible for the Black and Tans.

911 all were muslim

King has no problem supporting IRA terrorists who have carried out far more bombings than any Muslims in the US. I also have heard no outrage from King about the continuing IRA terrorism activity in Northern Ireland.

Well said EphraimKibbey, one of yours carrying the bomb indeed and Republican Peter King of Nassau County,NY quickly using it to fire up anti-Muslim sentiment again. Shame on him and on those who elect him!

It's the enemy within EphraimKibbey that freedom loving individuals need to worry about. Keep your head on a swivel.

Well, it looks like we didn't even get the suicide bomber, he was one of ours and part of the black op. Good thing Peter didn't blow our guy's cover any earlier or he would have been dead and the bomb would have been gone. With "friends" like King, who needs enemies?

OLDPerfesser, their point was in defense of nation really one of the direct responsibilities of our current constitution. The barbary pirates were the adversary who regarded their religion as the over riding issue to justify their tyranny. Freedom of religion and observations of hostile forces using religion as their reason to be hostile are two different things.

@Byethbay, considering you're always telling Americans to butt out of Irish business, you should keep your nose out of ours. Since you're unable to ever be objective about anything concerning the U.S. or Americans, your posts are really boring. Ireland would be perfection, except that you and STEVENSTAR live there. Good news for us in America.

BrianO - yes, you certainly know your history. Both of those men went on to be President, and I'd like to see an example of how either of those men used this painful experience to dilute the Constitution's mandate for freedom of religion. Failing in that, I'm just going to have to stick with George W. Bush. "We learn from history that we've learned nothing from history." George Bernard Shaw.

Theoldperfessor,In 1786, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson met with Arab diplomats from Tunis, who were conducting terror raids and piracy against American ships. On March 28, 1786 Jefferson and Adams detailed what they saw as the main issue: “We took the liberty to make some inquiries concerning the Grounds of their pretensions to make war upon a Nation who had done them no Injury, and observed that we considered all mankind as our Friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation. The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise.” -- -----and let me add---"Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it"- Winston Churchill.

""America treasures the relationship we have with our many Muslim friends, and we respect the vibrant faith of Islam which inspires countless individuals to lead lives of honesty, integrity, and morality. This year, may Eid also be a time in which we recognize the values of progress, pluralism, and acceptance that bind us together as a Nation and a global community. By working together to advance mutual understanding, we point the way to a brighter future for all." George W. Bush

You got that right BrianO. God Bless America.
