Greenberg has been under fire since last weekend when he posted on his personal Facebook page, "Very simple question...Name just ONE society in the developed world that has benefited in ANY WAY from the introduction of more Muslims. Just one. Asking for a friend."
The post was criticized by several Democratic candidates and Muslim leaders.
