"I think it’s appropriate for me to apologize on behalf of this country for discrimination you have faced."
What Muslim group has ever apologized for 9/11 itself? None of them. They all say it had nothing to do with them, and ignore how the 9/11 hijackers used the texts and teachings of Islam to justify the attacks.
In reality, no one is discriminating against Muslims. Some businesses have declined to change policies that have stood for decades in order to accommodate Muslim practices, and are duly being sued. And also in reality, hate crimes against Muslims are infrequent:
Anti-Jewish attacks 70% of hate crimes, anti-Muslim attacks 9% of hate crimes -- Senate to hold hearings on "anti-Muslim bigotry"
Just-released New York 2009 report: Hate crimes against Jews: 251. Hate crimes against Muslims: 11.
Backlash! Anti-Muslim hate crimes only eight percent of hate crimes, far less than those against Jews And so in order to deflect attention away from jihad activity and try to portray Muslims as victims, so as to shame non-Muslims into not investigating or even being suspicious of further jihad activity, Islamic supremacist groups have resorted to making it up. Hamas-linked CAIR and other Muslims have not hesitated to fabricate "hate crimes." CAIR and other groups like it want and need hate crimes against Muslims, because they can use them for political points and as weapons to intimidate people into remaining silent about the jihad threat.
And Quigley is playing right into the hands of Hamas-linked CAIR.

Rebel pundit was there: "He rambled on about the typical racism and discrimination that the liberal left is so convinced America is rampantly infected with.”
The apology comes around the 2:15 mark in the above video:
Quigley gave remarks to the primarily muslim audience. He rambled on about the typical racism and discrimination that the liberal left is so convinced America is rampantly infected with. As you can see in the video below, he proceeded in his congressional capacity to apologize on behalf of the country for discrimination against muslims’ faith.
Such asshattery is without equal. Perhaps he can persuade a few Jews to join him and they can apologize to the Germans, too.
We all should be fighting and defeating jihad. We should all be denouncing the sharia and the most extreme ideology on the face of the earth (that goes for Muslims, too). Apologizing after 911, 7/7, 3/11, Times Square, Fort Hood, Christmas tree lighting bomb plan, etc., is submission.
The college where this sick act took place is a hotbed for Islamic extremism. I posted the following on its opening back in May 2009, when a group of American Muslims led by two jihadist sought to establish the first four-year accredited Islamic college in the United States, calling it a "Muslim Georgetown."
Advisers to the project have scheduled a June vote to decide whether the proposed Zaytuna College can open in the fall of next year, a major step toward developing the faith in America.
Imam Zaid Shakir and Sheik Hamza Yusuf of California have spent years planning the school, which will offer a liberal arts education and training in Islamic scholarship.
Academic jihad. Another giant leap is galloping sharia in America. Here's some background information on Sheik Hamza Yusef, from Discover the Networks:
Anti-Semitic and anti-American Islamic scholar
“They [Americans] were ungrateful for the bounties of Allah, and so Allah caused them to taste fear and hunger.”
Born as Mark Hanson in 1959 to parents who were American academics, Hamza Yusuf converted to Islam at age seventeen. Today he may be the West’s most influential Islamic scholar. With a reputation for hostility toward the United States and Israel, he commonly appears as a guest speaker at events organized by various chapters of the Muslim Students Association of the U.S. and Canada.
On September 9, 2001 – just two days before the al Qaeda attacks against America – UCLA’s Al-Talib magazine co-sponsored a benefit dinner titled “Justice for Imam Jamil Al-Amin” (aka H. Rap Brown) at UC Irvine. Al-Amin had recently been convicted of murdering an Atlanta police officer who was attempting to arrest him. Among the speakers at this benefit was Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, who spoke about the fate he foresaw for America:
They [Americans] were ungrateful for the bounties of Allah, and so Allah caused them to taste fear and hunger. That is one reason and, I would say, that this country is facing a very terrible fate. The reason for that is that this country stands condemned. It stands condemned like Europe stood condemned for what it did. . . . This country [America] unfortunately has a great, a great tribulation coming to it. And much of it is already here, yet people are too to illiterate to read the writing on the wall.
At this same rally, Yusuf lamented that Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, the blind Egyptian cleric convicted of masterminding the 1993 World Trade Center bombing as well as unfulfilled plans to destroy various Manhattan bridges and tunnels, had been “unjustly tried” and “condemned against any standards of justice in any legal system.”

The other "scholar," Imam Zaid Shakir, wrote of Israel in July 2006:
BOYCOTT ISRAEL:
The following essay, Islam: Religion or Ideology, was written three weeks ago, before the government of Israel began its brutal, murderous assault on the civilian population of Lebanon, allegedly in response to the capture of two Israeli soldiers by fighters affiliated with the Lebanese Islamic organization, Hizbollah. This latest Israeli campaign only underscores the price the people of the Middle East have paid owing to the triumph of Zionism. That price has been high indeed, and as Lebanon is reduced to bloodstained rubble, the price only escalates.
[...] However, in my opinion, the greater price lies in how the triumph of Zionism threatens to transform mainstream Judaism from a religion characterized by the loftiest of moral codes, to one that is willing to sacrifice its morality on the altar of political expediency.
[...]
The following is part of an effort by this writer to warn Muslims against allowing the reduction of our religion by similar political imperatives. We should never hope to see the day when, if possessing the requisite firepower, Muslims would visit upon the civilian population of Israel the sort of savage violence we see decimating the innocent civilians of Gaza and Lebanon.
Islam: Religion or Ideology?
And then there's this chatter on an Islamic forum back in 2006:
Shakir

I would like to point out that Zaid Shakir is a confirmed wahhabi. Do not purchase or read any books written by the wahhabi Zaid Shakir or listen to any lectures by the wahhabi Zaid Shakir.
Come to Connecticut USA and visit Masjid Al-Islam in New Haven and see for yourself the wahhabi legacy left by Zaid Shakir at this place. He single handedly did a lot to promote wahhabism in the USA and especially Connecticut, and thus far he has not yet recanted any of it.
His wahhabi influenced writings are still published in a local deobandi wahhabi monthly publication titled "Iqraa".
Zaid Shakir may be trying to "turn a new page" and come off a sufi or something, but he has yet to do work to reverse the wahhabi ideas that he worked hard to spread.
And the notoriously Jewicidal, leftopathic magazine, Tikkun, ran Zaid Shakir's "review" of the movie Obsession:
Imam Zaid Shakir’s Response to “Obsession” - Tikkun Magazine: Obsessed with Defamation and Slander
This past September, 28 million copies of the anti-Islamic propaganda documentary Obsession were distributed free of charge in what were considered the “swing” states in the past presidential election campaign. This effort was clearly designed to leverage the idea in the minds of some Americans that Senator Barack Obama is a Muslim (he is not), seeking to identify him with the images and statements of Muslims portrayed in the video. These portrayals give the impression that Islam is a fanatical, bloodthirsty religion, whose adherents are hell-bent on destroying America. By implying a connection between Senator Obama and “radical” Islam, the film sought to prove that Obama was too anti-American to be seriously considered for the highest office in this land.
The film is propaganda that relies in some instances on distorting the truth and in others on blatant lies or vile innuendos. The film points to some extreme doctrines that the overwhelming majority of Muslims readily condemn, implying that “radical” Islam is the new fascism and that it poses an existential threat to the United States. This allegation is false and dangerous. To support this allegation, the film’s producers juxtapose scenes of Nazi marches and other forms of political imagery with corresponding Muslim images. I have previously discussed the exaggerated nature of the Islamic threat (see newislamicdirections.com). There I wrote (in September 2008):
In recent days, surrogates of one of my opponents have been distributing, free of charge, a disturbing DVD entitled Obsession. This film attempts to portray the maniacal rants of a minuscule fringe of deluded Muslim fanatics as an existential threat to the United States that must be combated by the full might of the United States’ military and society. It tries to deceive you into believing that “Radical Islam” and “Islamo-Fascism” is the twenty-first-century equivalent of Hitler’s Germany. Both history and contemporary reality belie that claim. Nazi Germany was an industrialized state that had military means that rivaled or surpassed those of America. Had circumstances proved more favorable for the Germans, they could have well developed an atomic bomb before America. Similarly, under more fortuitous circumstances, Germany’s ballistic missile program, which produced the deadly V2 Rocket, and its fighter aircraft program, which introduced the Messerschmitt 262, the world’s first tactical jet fighter, could have given Germany a tactical advantage that could have turned the tide of the war in Hitler’s favor.
