<\/a><\/p>\n(Paul Nehlen)<\/em><\/strong> – Liberals and the mainstream media are having a collective meltdown, verging on an aneurism, over Donald Trump responding to the political attack launched against him at the Democrats\u2019 convention last week by the father of a Muslim-American soldier who was killed in Iraq.<\/p>\n Without doubt, Khizr and Ghazala Khan\u2019s son \u2013 Captain Humayun Khan \u2013 is an American hero who gave his life in defense of the United States of America while serving in Iraq in 2004.\u00a0 Our nation owes Capt. Khan and his Gold Star parents a debt that can never be repaid.<\/p>\n However\u2026<\/p>\n Mr. and Mrs. Khan chose to politicize the death of their son when they appeared on-stage in support of Hillary Clinton at the Democrat National Convention in Philadelphia.\u00a0 Indeed, in his remarks Mr. Khan attacked, ridiculed and attempted to humiliate Mr. Trump and his positions on critical national security issues.<\/p>\n Did he really think his attack would go unanswered?<\/p>\n It\u2019s not my place to respond on behalf of Mr. Trump; however, there are facts related to this controversy that the media clearly \u2013 and intentionally, in my opinion \u2013 isn\u2019t telling the public about.\u00a0 So allow me\u2026<\/p>\n Mr. Khan charged that under Donald Trump\u2019s proposed TEMPORARY suspension of refugee resettlements from specific Muslim countries, Capt. Khan \u201cnever would have been in America.\u201d\u00a0 But this is comparing apples to oranges.<\/p>\n In fact, the Khans moved to the United States from Pakistan in the 1970s.\u00a0 That was long before the 9\/11 radical Muslim attacks on the Twin Towers and Pentagon changed everything in this country.<\/p>\n And Capt. Khan\u2019s death came years before the Ft. Hood shooting, the Boston Marathon bombing, the Chattanooga killings, the San Bernardino Christmas party mass murder and the Orlando nightclub massacre.<\/p>\n Circumstances have clearly and dramatically changed in the U.S. since Capt. Khan\u2019s death at the hands of a Muslim suicide bomber in Iraq.<\/p>\n In addition, just because Capt. Khan was a patriotic Muslim-American who loved and fought for his adopted country, that doesn\u2019t mean other Muslim-Americans don\u2019t hate the United States and wish our people deadly harm.<\/p>\n A research paper<\/a>, \u201cMuslim-American Involvement with Violent Extremism, 2015\u201d by Charles Kurzman of the Department of Sociology at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill details some facts Mr. Khan and his supporters in the media are overlooking\u2026<\/p>\n 1.)\u00a0 Muslim-Americans have been fighting on BOTH<\/u> sides of the war.\u00a0 In fact, more Muslim-Americans (20) have been killed since 9\/11 fighting for ISIS than have been killed fighting for America (14).<\/p>\n 2.)\u00a0 Since 9\/11, the number of Muslim-Americans who have been killed in action fighting for the U.S. is the same as the number of American soldiers who have been killed by fellow Muslim-American soldiers Major Nidal Hasan at Ft. Hood and Sgt. Hasan Akbar at Camp Pennsylvania in Kuwait.<\/p>\n 3.)\u00a0 Since 9\/11, the number of Muslim-Americans who have been killed fighting for terrorist organizations in Syria, Iraq, Somalia, Yemen, and Pakistan is almost three times the number of Muslim-Americans who have been killed in action fighting for the U.S.<\/p>\n In addition\u2026<\/p>\n\n
