Allen West Rips CAIR, “They Have Nefarious Associations With the Muslim Brotherhood”…
Now back to the awesomeness that is Allen West.
Allen West Interview: Florida Tea Party Favorite Talks About Islam and Donald Trump — Broward Palm Beach New Times
During your campaign, you said, “A nation goes to war against an ideology. We are against something that is a totalitarian, theocratic, political ideology, and it is called Islam.” Could you explain? Are you talking about the religion of Islam?
I’m talking about an ideology; I’m not talking about a religion. I’m talking about an ideology that, if you study the evolution of it, is totalitarian in nature. I don’t think that you as a young lady have the exact same type freedoms that you have here in the United States of America. . . So I think that’s a very antithetical ideology to who we are and our freedoms and liberties. . .
This is one thing that’s very interesting, how the people on the left always talk about separation of church and state. When you look at the theocracies all across the Middle East, where we look at constitutions that are based upon the Qur’an, I don’t think you want to see that happening in the United States of America. So it is a theocratic political construct.
But you separate it from people who are Muslims?
I never talk about Muslims. I talk about an ideology.
In your mind, how are the two separate?
I think it is very separate because I’m talking about a thought process as opposed to an individual. I’m talking about something that people believe in as opposed to an individual making a decision. I’ve been in the Middle East for quite some time, and I worked very well with many Muslim individuals. But I think when you look at the Islamic terrorism that we are facing, there’s an ideology that propagates that. [pause] So is this going to be the basis of the interview?
No. I just have one more question about the Islam issue. You believe ordinary Muslims are separate from the ideology of Islam, so why did you tell a representative from the Council on American-Islamic Relations —
Because the Council on American-Islamic Relations is an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial. They have some very nefarious associations in this country that include the Muslim Brotherhood. And that is something that is well-known. The FBI has cut off all associations with CAIR, so I am not going to kowtow with an organization that has some very questionable associations.

This man impresses me more, each time I hear what he has to say. He is intelligent, and composed, very informed , and without fear.
America needs him. Contact his constituants in Florida and get permission for him to run for President. He is the polar opposite of Obama!!!!!!!!
Col. West, America needs you in a much higher capacity!
Religion is a contract. You can CHOOSE to follow it, or not follow it.
Anything that mandates a ‘moral code’ (Islamism, Socialism, Fascism, etc) is a political movement, and is a tyrannical one.
Any government is a compromise of personal freedom. It’s purpose should be to do only what is absolutely necessary. Acting on the behalf of ‘Good’ or ‘Evil’ should be the exclusive role of religion.
.
I still love West but has me bugged about wanting to leave Obamacare alone.
The Black Caucus must have got to him.
Libtards, Commies and Democrats have a way of charming conservatives into their web of deceit, lies and corruption.
Col. West, …America needs a great orator who will speak out against Islamofascism and pump us all full of fear of its rise, while we are crushed under the weight of AmericanFacism such as Obamacare. Thank you Sir.
This man has lost all my respect. He actually thinks we should implement obamacare fully. No way will I vote for this clown. I like his stance on the mus lims but I don’t want someone that supports ANY legislation put in place by the current admin…

All is forgiven. Carry on, soldier.
Sorry West groupies, he’s turned out to be another Colin Powell and JC Watts.
Talk about a nose dive, first the Obamacare veto
then this B.S.
You can’t have Islam without Muslims
and you can’t have Muslims without Islam.
The two are inseparable.
What D Austin said, he has changed quite a bit very quickly, at least he isn’t running for President.

——————————————————————————————–
Nonsense. He thinks congress should move on to other issues and that the repeal vote on Obamacare sent the message that Republicans are serious about getting rid of it ASAP. He does not see the point of pursuing legislation regarding Obamacare when there is no chance that any of it will pass a senate vote at this time. Whether you agree or not is up to you. Personally, I think house republicans should continue to chop away at Obamacare even if it is fruitless so people know they haven’t given up. He sees it another way. Nevertheless, he remains on record as being against the implementation of Obamacare.
Col West is merely stating a well-know fact. He’s saying the truth.
And that, my fellow WZ readers, is a rare trait nowadays!
You know I was reading BlackFive the other day and Jimbo made mention of an old military expression about following a true leader to hell with a gasoline soaked suit on…I’ve met a few leaders in the military that I would follow in that fashion. I’ve met none in the civilian world.
However, LtCol West is definitely one of those true leaders. I like the cut of his jib.

==========================
Allan West and Geert Wilders have the exact same view on islam and muslims.
muslims are the first victims of islam.. due to the apostate rule, many have no way to get out..
Get a grip.. these men are on the front lines against political islam.. they must give muslims who value reason over shariah a chance to make a choice..

Some people are so quick to jump all over the guy if his every action doesn’t meet their expectations. Christ alive, he’s a thinking human being not some poll watching political bot. You won’t always agree with anyone, even Congressman West. Everything I’ve seen or read about the guy tells me he’s a principled man of outstanding character.
Islam is a genocidal cult invented by the genocidal pedophile Mohammed. Islam does not = “all Muslims.”

Re: Obamacare- the house can pull all the funding, but it’s not likely.
