Yesterday, Congressman Kieth Ellison, Democrat of Minnesota, broke into tears as he told the story of one Muslim man who had been killed while trying to help at the WTC on 9-11 but who was wrongly accused of being part of the terrorist plot. Every news story about the hearings covered the weeping congressman and his tale of the bigotry to which this poor Muslim had been subjected. It was, however, all a lie, the kind of thing that one would expect from a congressman who was part of the Nation of Islam run by Louis Farrakhan.
The entire story is set forth at NRO. You can reach it by clicking on the title to this post. I strongly suggest that you read the whole thing. It is not very long, but it makes clear that not only was no one subjected to anti muslim bigotry as Ellison asserts, but rather the Muslim in question was honored by name by Congress, the mayor and the police chief of New York City.
