Who’s Funding the Pro-Hamas Rallies? Taxpayers. We are literally funding the Muslim Brotherhood.

In the last 15 years, Islamic political interests have dug deep into New York City politics. What does that mean? Beyond the obvious, political power, money. That’s what the currency of power comes down to anyway. And that means government contracts going to so-called community groups. More Muslims living in NYC meant more money was going into Islamist organizations. And much like funding Hamas, that adds up to pro-Hamas rallies.

Big Apple taxpayers have shelled out nearly $9 million since 2010 — including $3.3 million the past two years — to four nonprofits that helped spearhead anti-Israel protests where demonstrators openly cheered Hamas’ terrorist attacks on the Jewish State.

…The biggest winner: The Arab American Association of New York, a Brooklyn-based group that helped plan a hate-filled “Flood Brooklyn for Palestine” protest in Bay Ridge on Oct. 21, where protestors called for the eradication of Israel and held a sign of the Israeli flag in a trash basket that read “Please keep the world clean!”

It’s received $6.8 million in Council pork and city contracts – including $3 million-plus the past two years – for criminal justice services, adult literacy programs, mental health aid through ex-First Lady Chirlane McCray’s failed ThriveNYC initiative and other services, records show.

That would be Linda Sarsour’s group.

The Muslim American Society of New York, another southern Brooklyn-based group that co-sponsored the Bay Ridge rally. It’s received more than $260,000 in city contracts and Council funding.

So taxpayers are literally funding the Muslim Brotherhood.

MAS, like the Muslim Brotherhood, wishes to see the United States governed by sharia, or Islamic law. “The message that all countries should be ruled by Islamic law,” writes Gartenstein-Ross, “is echoed throughout MAS’s membership curriculum. For example, MAS requires all its adjunct members to read Fathi Yakun’s book To Be a Muslim. In that volume, Yakun spells out his expansive agenda: ‘Until the nations of the world have functionally Islamic governments, every individual who is careless or lazy in working for Islam is sinful.’”

Hamas is an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood and taxpayer money is being directed to Brotherhood organizations. Who’s funding the pro-Hamas rallies? We are.

We are being made into fools that are funding every outsider and country and every rich culture and wars, but that which was the once affluent responsible USA. They are doing and robbing us and similarly to what they did to Venezuela and others.

I’ve had with these corrupt policies that screw every legacy American while making corrupt insiders and outsiders very rich on our debt. I do not care what country our politicians are in bed with, do not give them a dime of our treasury and increase our debt load.

College loans. How do we deal with Biden’s forgiving debtors who we can’t win over?
Demand 401k/IRA holders be allowed to take out the same amount tax-free. Shut them up.

Why do I bring it up here? We’re getting played with all these other topics.

"Who’s Funding the Pro-Hamas Rallies? Taxpayers. We are literally funding the Muslim Brotherhood."

Another reason to repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments.

"NonProfits" are the way liberals/commies/progressives wreck the country with their evil. It's time to say, 'If it's worth doing it doesn't need forced taxpayer support'. SAY NO TO NONPROFITS.

muslim brotherhood basically lived at the White House when hussein obama was president.

They almost overthrew Egypt but that failed. obama supported the arab spring.

obama is a disease to this nation. He’s opened the floodgates to these backwards 3rd worlders. We are living in obama’s 3rd term.

“Some of the comments that have been uttered about Islam do not reflect the sentiments of my government or the sentiments of most Americans. Islam, as practiced by the vast majority of people, is a peaceful religion, a religion that respects others. Ours is a country based upon tolerance and we welcome people of all faiths in America.” - George W. Bush

He really was stuck on stupid.

That is what Obozo and Soros want; American Tax Payers funding the Muslim Brotherhood and Biden is giving it to them.

They need to change the law so government can not fund these non profits. If taxpayers want money to to to a non profit then they should contribute and help raise money from their friends.
