-->Tom Tancredo aus Colorado, Mitglied der Republikaner im Kongreß, hat in einem Interview den erstaunlichen Vorschlag gemacht, Mecca zu vernichten:

Rep. Tom Tancredo made the comment on July 14 in answer to a radio host's question about a possible response to any hypothetical nuclear terrorist attack on the United States.

"If this happens in the United States and we determine that it is the result of extremist fundamentalist Muslims, you could take out their holy sites," the Colorado Republican said.

"You're talking about bombing Mecca?" the host asked.

"Yeah," Tancredo responded, according to an audio excerpt posted online by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Washington-based group. A spokesman for the congressman confirmed the substance of Tancredo's remarks.

Habe das nur per Zufall im Frühstücksfernsehen gehört, deutsche Medien finden das sonst wohl nicht so berichtenswert. Selbst der Spiegel berichtet darüber ausschließlich in der englischen Ausgabe: http://service.spiegel.de/cache/international/0,1518,365992,00.html
