Dear Editor:
Americans are under attack by radical Islamic terrorists, call them ISIS or call them Al Qaeda, Americans are calling it “terrorist attacks.”
Ever since the massacre in Boston, and then San Bernardino, and now Orlando, Florida on 6/12, President Obama still refuses to call this enemy “Radical Islam” or “Islamic Terrorists” – he continues to carry the liberal banner that it’s a “criminal” offense, or “hate crime.”
Obama needs to treat this as a “Military” matter, not as a local police matter only – give the local police help from FBI, CIA, and military to kick ISIS where it hurts most –- in their own house – but Obama is not taking these massacres seriously!
Fact: There have been “86” Islamic terror plots in the US since 9/11 – an FBI fact. This was not a “Hate Crime” – the shooter was wearing a bullet-proof vest and made it a point to call 911during the attack and pledged allegiance to ISIS (and that he also referenced the Boston bombers on that phone call).
This was not a hate crime – but an act of terror!
The citizens of NJ 8th Congressional District need to communicate and get answers about security and solutions to fighting ISIS and radical Islam here and abroad from their representative in congress; but Rep. Albio Sires (NJ 8th) continues to take cover and refuse to answer emails, letters, faxes, and phone calls; Rep.. Sires will not hold town hall meetings. His constituents are worried, afraid, and unduly frightened by the massacres going on in our nation – Rep. Sires must come out from under his rock and talk to his constituents.
Thank you,
John Amato
