Excerpt:
An Orthodox rabbi in New York is leading a coordinated public relations campaign against a House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee hearing on the "radicalization of the Muslim community in the U.S." that commenced on Thursday.
The controversial hearing that has stirred public debate in the pages of newspapers and television talk shows is the initiative of Congressman Peter King, a Republican that represents Long Island, New York and chairs the House Homeland Security Committee.
Rabbi Marc Schneier spoke to Haaretz about his objections to the hearing. "As I attended the hearing in Washington, I witnessed injustice, Muslims were singled out as the source of home-grown terrorism."
