Simone: I know you’re right, Pee-wee, but…

Pee-wee: Everyone I know has a big “But…” C’mon, Simone, let’s talk about *your* big ”But”.

Yaser El-Menshawy, chairman of the Majlis Ash-Shura of New Jersey, the state’s council of mosques, condemned the plot and said he is glad it was not carried out.

BUT he said the motivation of people who plot against the government “cannot be stopped simply by law enforcement or military means alone.”

He said U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, among other issues, needs to be examined dispassionately.

“We are going to have to take a look at it and see where we are right and where we are not right,” El-Menshawy said. “If that’s not the case, then I fear we are in for a very long and difficult period.”
