King's Hearings

This is how CNN introduced the congressional hearings that began today to explore the threat posed by radical Muslims within the United States:
Washington (CNN) -- Hearings on the alleged radicalization of Muslim Americans are neither "radical or un-American," congressman Peter King said in opening the controversial House Homeland Security Committee session Thursday.

King, a Republican from New York, said recruiting young American Muslims is part of al Qaeda's strategy to continue attacking the United States and called on Americans to reject The Council on American-Islamic Relations, a prominent Muslim American advocacy group in the United States.

What is "alleged" about the radicalization of Muslim Americans? It's happening every day! I know legalese urges caution when assigning guilt or when making formal declarations about blame, but this is getting ridiculous. On that point, read more from Representative Peter King HERE.
