Tancredo and the ADC attack

I recieved this email to attack Mr Tancredo for statements he made, if we are attacked, Mecca and Medina will be attacked if he becomes President. I applaud Mr Tancredo for being couragous enough to take on these bullies, The Islamists. While the rest of the candidates, republican and democrat, cowtow to get their votes, Mr Tancredo understands we are in a global war with these Islamists. Please email his office to support him in this matter, to stand up to those who will nuke us when given half a chance. Email contact info is at the end of the Islamists email.

ADC Condemns Comments from Congressman Tancredo

ADC Press Release: ADC Condemns Comments from Congressman Tancredo Washington, DC | August 3, 2007 | www.adc.org | The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) is shocked and appalled by recent comments made by Republican presidential candidate Congressman Tom Tancredo of Colorado. While speaking to a group of voters in Iowa, Tancredo said "If it is up to me, we are going to explain that an attack on this homeland…would be followed by an attack on the holy sites in Mecca and Medina; that is the only thing I can think of that might deter somebody from doing what they would otherwise do. If I am wrong, fine, tell me, and I would be happy to do something else. But you had better find a deterrent, or you will find an attack." Unfortunately, this is not the first time that Congressman Tancredo has made such ignorant and hate-filled remarks. On a radio show in 2005, Tancredo suggested dropping nuclear bombs on the holy city of Mecca in retaliation for any terrorist attack directed against the homeland of the United States. Tancredo's comments serve only to encourage hatred towards Muslims of all ethnic backgrounds. His views are not shared by the US government; Deputy Spokesman Tom Casey of the State Department called Tancredo's recent comments "reprehensible" and "absolutely crazy". ADC asks our members to contact Congressman Tancredo concerning his remarks. Washington, DC Office 1131 Longworth HOB Washington, DC 20515 Phone: 202.225.7882 Fax: 202.226.4623 Email: http://tancredo.house.gov/contact_tom.html Website: http://tancredo.house.gov/default.aspx Main District Office 6099 S. Quebec St., Suite 200 Centennial, Colorado 80111 Phone: 720.283.9772 Fax: 720.283.9776

I have also emailed Tom also expressing support.  What some are overlooking is his statement that IF our homeland is attacked and IF we are sure it were perpetuated by the Islamic Jihadists, this is what they can expect from us.

Those opposing Tom are behaving like he would support a FIRST STRIKE.  If they will leave America alone, they will have nothing to worry about with Tom Tancredo sitting in the Oval Office.

Well so far, the media hates Tom, the dems hate Tom, the government hates Tom. He still sounds like my candidate.

I don't know about anyone else, but the above statement scares the socks off me!

The statement scares me too, however, he did say it would be in response!

If holy sites of muslims are bombed...I can guarantee they will take out the Vatican in retaliation. I agree with Al- Idaho...take out Tehran and the existing nuclear facilities.

It's the same as Israel telling Syria, if they ever attack them again, their city of Damacus will cease to exist.

A nice soft glow on the horizion, gives you a warm fuzzy feeling doesn't it?
