Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

January 5, 2011

New York Congressman Peter King spent decades raising money on behalf of the Irish Republican Army, one of the world?s most violent terrorist organizations. Some of the money he raised went to purchase weapons used to carry out robberies, extortion, kidnappings, and bombings.

Several years ago, Rep. King intervened on behalf of Malachy McAllister, who served three years in a British prison for his role in the ambush and attempted murder of a policeman. McAllister fled to New York with his family after they were nearly killed in a reprisal raid by a Loyalist gang.

In 2003, the Homeland Security Department, citing McAllister?s terrorist background, tried to deport him. King used his influence to prevent the deportation, despite the fact that McAllister was a member of a hyper-violent Marxist terrorist cell within the Irish Republican movement.

It is at once infuriating and strangely appropriate to our times that King, a long-time terrorist ally, is the incoming Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
