Charities For Terror (Debbie Schlussel Looks At Detroit Area Islamofascist Front Alert)
New York Post ^ | 09/19/06 | Debbie Schlussel

Posted on 09/19/2006 6:42:37 AM PDT by goldstategop

FBI agents yesterday raided the suburban Detroit headquarters of LIFE for Relief and Development (LRD), the largest Islamic charity in the country.

I first wrote about the group for The Post in 2003. Back then, FBI Director Robert Mueller was set to give an award to Imad Hamad, who heads the Midwest chapter of the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC). But, after my Post article pointed out that Hamad was a subject in over a dozen terrorism-related investigations, the FBI revoked the award.

One of those investigations concerned Hamad's close ties to LRD. Both the FBI and the then-U.S. Customs Service (now ICE) had been probing the charity for possibly laundering money for Hamas.

"Schaefer Ave...."

Like I said, you did not drive "thru" Dearborn, you drove "in" East Dearborn.

It's East Dearborn that has the stores whose names you cannot read. West Dearborn seems to be staying the same. There's a lot of new construction and it's upscale. The line is drawn at Schaefer.

I suppose that Detroit does not have the East Side or West Side either. It's not on the map.......

I doubt you lived in Dearborn for 48 years.

You must be a native. I've lived here in Dearborn for two years. It just isn't the same as it was the last time I lived here in the 80's. We used to come in from the west for great shopping and good dining. Now it's the other way around.

Then I'm not surprised by your lack of knowledge of Dearborn. I would never presume to guess all of the nuances of Macomb County.
