C.D. - ISIS, Syria and How far Am I My Brother's Keeper?

As-Salaam-Alaikum (God's Peace be upon You)!

This Saturday, November 21, 2015, Critical Discourse will cover the ever-unfolding events that have captured the attention, fear and yet, determination of the public, to maintain a sense of normalcy and charity.

In wake of the attacks in Paris, the U.S. Congress voted to greatly restrict and regulate the influx of Syrian refugees. To the shock of many, enough democrats voted with republicans, to deny Barack Obama the veto power he'd promised to weld.

With emotions still raw, the very fibesr of human compassion and drive for self-preservation are being tested.

Are the governors, who vowed to pointedly refuse any additional entries of Syrian refugees into their states, guilty of hard-heartedness? 

Why should an entire group be judged so harshly, based on the depraved acts of a few?

Are those governors who have promised to allow the refugees, careless and naively optimistic that there are no plausible threats?

What of the future relationship between American Muslims and the general public? Will Muslims be looked upon with greater suspicion?

Given the range of reaction and comments from presidential candidates, how will these recent events (including Mali), affect the outcome of the 2016 presidential election?

Join us, to review these issues and more, right on your favorite talk-show (am I being a bit pretentious?) - Critical Discourse!
