Tennesee Pastor Kills UN Workers in Afghanistan
No wait, that was Islamic Fascists who decided death of whoever is closest was the penalty for someone half way around the world insulting their religion. Yet Harry Reid and Lindsey Graham decided to blame the Tennessee Pastor who burned a Koran. Now they want to "find a way to hold people accountable." No, not the murderers in Afghanistan, but the Americans in the US who excercised their right to free speeech.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says congressional lawmakers are discussing taking some action in response to the Koran burnings of a Tennessee pastor that led to killings at the U.N. facility in Afghanistan and sparked protests across the Middle East, Politico reports.
“Ten to 20 people have been killed," Reid said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “We’ll take a look at this of course. As to whether we need hearings or not, I don’t know.”
Sen. Lindsey Graham said Congress might need to explore the need to limit some forms of freedom of speech, in light of Tennessee pastor Terry Jones’ Quran burning, and how such actions result in enabling U.S. enemies.
"I wish we could find a way to hold people accountable. Free speech is a great idea, but we're in a war," Graham told CBS' Bob Schieffer on “Face the Nation” Sunday.
“During World War II, we had limits on what you could do if it inspired the enemy," Graham said, adding certain speech can “put our troops at risk.”
