These so called christians never claimed to be murdering in the name of god nor were they instructed by their ministers that to die for god will get them into a preverted paradise…

One thing I agree with Klein on is “What King is doing is not launching a serious investigation. What King is doing is launching publi – publicity-hounding hearings. He is trying to make his name bigger,”
and Buchanan: “the Muslim community is particularly vulnerable to an approach from abroad to try to radicalize them and make them enemies of America. That’s legitimate”. The rest is a pile of hogwash….

The Washington Post’s Ezra Klein decried an upcoming congressional hearing on the threat of homegrown Islamic terrorism Monday, saying that Christians engage in violence as well but are not investigated by Congress. Klein lambasted the investigation, led by the chair of the House Homeland Security Committee Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), as an attention-grabbing ploy to demonize the American Muslim community.

“We’ve had school shootings from young Christians,” Klein claimed on Monday’s Morning Joe. He added that there are “neo-Nazis who claim they’re Christians. Is the Christian community in America so deeply vulnerable to neo-Nazis?”

Klein’s point was not that Christians in America deserve an investigation by Congress, but rather that the Muslim community should not be singled out for acts of terrorism, and that they are not so vulnerable to be influenced by extremism from abroad. However, he failed to provide a single instance of violence that was itself motivated by a radical strand of Christianity.

“We have not seen it yet,” Klein spoke of Muslim radicalization in America. “We have not seen it in America in a serious way yet. The Muslim community here is very different.”

Klein’s remarks of Christians echo another sentiment expressed by PBS’ Tavis Smiley, who infamously claimed last May that American Christians engage in terrorism daily. Smiley was trying to deflect public scrutiny away from American Muslims and toward extremists that claim to be “right-wing,” “anti-government,” and “anti-abortion.” Klein seemed to be trying to do the same during the brief but heated debate with MSNBC’s Pat Buchanan.

Buchanan pointed to the Fort Hood shooting as an example of radical Islamic terror within the United States – but Klein dismissed that claim. “There’s not a ton of evidence” that it was a radicalization of the American Muslim community, Klein stated. Buchanan countered that extremists abroad are sending messages to Muslim youth in the U.S., who are listening to their radical message.
