Wednesday Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) and Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.)
opened a hearing to examine the emerging threat to the military from
homegrown terrorists within the U.S. and named the armed services as the
"most sought-after" target for radical Islamist extremist groups.
Rep.
Dan Lungren (R.-Calif.) asked Paul Stockton, assistant defense
secretary for homeland defense, whether "we are at war with violent
Islamist extremism."
