Here's something you won't typically hear on the evening news. It's nice to see there's at least some sliver of sense in congress.

I like her! This guy is trying his best to be a biased idiot. Lol somehow it's different because christian militants don't have financial backing from other countries? No, an extremist is still an extremist no matter who's paying for it and which god he/she is killing in the name of.

I would argue that Christian fundamentalists pose a considerably greater threat to America, considering have have a lot of political power and unfortunate representation in government.

Exactly how I feel! I am christian, but still believe in separation of church and state. And honestly, the fact that these fundamentalists don't have foreign financial backing is scary because they are still able to do things like this. Basically, I think they have a much better position for fighting their cause than some foreign terror groups.

If you think Hezbollah is getting financed from Iran, it is so because Iran supports every Shiite group.
Did you know that each and every transacted note is monitored?

Not really, I was just assuming that they where because the guy in the video seemed to think there was a difference because the christain group was not funded. I don't pay a huge amount of attention to the news. Lol

So please, 1) to give advice, please know what you are talking about 2) don't just repeat a pre-packaged opinion. Think for yourself. That's all I have to say.

Lol got me there. Technically I'm following my own rules though, I am not giving any advice and I am thinking for myself.

Just look at our nation. The Pakistani military / ISI clearly and without a doubt supports Islamic fundamentalists (if it isn't full of them itself).
