Calling all Muslims to Debate

A few years ago I sent a letter to Robert Gates, then Secretary of Defense, voicing my concern about the potential for a “fifth column” of radicalized American Muslims; whose sole intent is overt and clandestine operations against Christians and Jews, our form of government and U.S. interests abroad. This went unanswered.

We now know that the Kenyan Interior Minister has pointed the finger of the current Kenya mall attack at American Muslims belonging to Al-Shabab!

I may not be politically correct nor am I "Islamaphobic"; but I for one am way beyond tired of hearing the hollow rhetoric from liberals, Muslims and their sympathizers about Islam being a peaceful religion.

In that respect I am issuing a challenge to American Muslim leaders to meet me in a public forum to debate the relationship between Islam, jihad and the rights and responsibilities of being an American citizen. I suggest a televised panel discussion of six - three from each side at BCTV.
