Pentagon General Under Fire For Islam Comments In Churches
Summary: Lt. General William Boykin is being criticized for comments he made about
Islam in speeches he gave in churches.
Lt. General William Boykin, the undersecretary for intelligence at the Pentagon,
has agreed to cut back on his speeches after being criticized for having made
anti-Islamist remarks at church services.
In one speech at the Good Shepherd Church in Sandy, Oregon on June 21, 2003, Boykin
said: "Why do they [radical Muslims] hate us? Why do they hate us so much?
Ladies and gentlemen, the answer to that is because we're a Christian nation,
because our foundation and our roots are Judeo-Christian."
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has called for Boykin's reassignment
because of his remarks. A CAIR representative told CNSNews.com,
"We feel that a person in his position should not be able to be in that position
holding those views."
CAIR, of course, has ties to international Islamic terrorism, so its views are
suspect. Islamist expert Daniel Pipes has more details on CAIR at DanielPipes.org.
