New Obama Envoy [to Muslim World] Has History Of Engagement With U.S. Muslim Brotherhood
The Gobal Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report ^ | Feb. 14, 2010 | GlobalMB

Posted on 02/15/2010 5:22:05 AM PST by BIOCHEMKY

Rashad Hussein, White House official and President Obama’s newly appointed Special Envoy to the Organization of Islamic Conference, has a history of participation in events connected with the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood as well as support for Brotherhood causes, once having called prosecution of the U.S. leader of a Palestinian terrorist organization one of many “politically motivated persecutions.” Mr. Hussain’s official biography states:

Rashad Hussain is presently Deputy Associate Counsel to President Obama. His work at the White House focuses on national security, new media, and science and technology issues. Mr. Hussain has also worked with the National Security Staff in pursuing the New Beginning that President Obama outlined in his June 2009 address in Cairo, Egypt. Mr. Hussain previously served as a Trial Attorney at the U.S. Department of Justice. Earlier in his career, Mr. Hussain was a legislative assistant on the House Judiciary Committee, where he focused on national security-related issues. Mr. Hussain received his J.D. from Yale Law School, where he served as an editor of the Yale Law Journal. Upon graduation, he served as a Law Clerk to Damon J. Keith on the U.S. Court of Appeals. Mr. Hussain also earned his Master’s degrees in Public Administration (Kennedy School of Government) and Arabic and Islamic Studies from Harvard University. He attended college at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

However, in October 2000 Mr. Hussain spoke at a conference sponsored by the Association of Muslim Social Scientists (AMSS) and the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University (CMCU). The conference was titled “Islam, Pluralism, and Demoracy and featured many leaders of the global Muslim Brotherhood including former German diplomat Murad Hoffman, and International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) leaders Louay Safi, Jamal Barzinji, Hisham Al-Talib, and AbdulHamid Abusylayman. The AMSS was founded in 1972 as an outgrowth of the Muslim Student Association and has long been associated with the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood.

In June 2002, Mr. Hussain was listed as part of a Congressional Staffers panel at the American Muslim Council’s (AMC) 11th annual convention. The AMC was headed at that time headed by Abdurahman Alamoudi, a leader in the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood and currently imprisoned as part of a plot to assassinate the Saudi head of state, Crown Prince Abdullah. Other important leaders of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood such as Jamal Barzinji were also part of the AMC.

While at Yale Law School, Mr. Hussain was listed as part of the organizing committee for an April 2004 conference organized by a student organization known as the Critical Islamic Reflections (CIR) group. Among the CIR sponsors listed on the their web site was IIIT and the Fairfax Institute, the IIIT educational arm. IIIT is an important component of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood and three of the key IIIT/Fairfax leaders Jamal Barzinji, Hisham Al-Talib, and Yaqub Mirza; were also associated with what has been called the SAAR network (Safa Group), a network of Islamic organizations located in Northern Virginia that was raided by the Federal government in March 2002 and which, until at least mid 2007, had been the subject of an ongoing investigation. Also listed as a CIR sponsor was ALIM, most likely referring to the American Learning Institute for Muslims and whose list of instructors includes some of the most important leaders of the U.S./global Muslim Brotherhood including Tariq Ramadan, Jamal Badawi, and Taha Al-Alwani.

“mmm mmm mmm Add this to Obama black panther ties and maybe one day we’ll see the entire picture.”

Alot of the Black Panthers converted to Islam, case in point Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour a.k.a. Donald Warden.
al-Mansour was who raised funds to pay for Obama’s law school education at Harvard. The background on al-Mansour is as follows:

Mansour is an orthodox Muslim, a black nationalist, an outspoken enemy of Israel, and mentor to Black Panther Party founder Huey Newton and his cohort, Bobby Seale. At the time al-Mansour associate Percy Sutton was raising money for Obama’s education, al-Mansour was the top financial advisor to mega-billionaire Prince Al-Waleed (Al-Walid) bin Talal of the Saudi royal family. Percy Sutton was Malcolm X’s attorney and a New York (Manhattan) Assemblyman.

As of August 2009, Prince Al-Waleed Bin Talal’s net worth is estimated at US$16.3 billion, down from $21 billion. He is ranked by Forbes as the 22nd richest person in the world. He has been nicknamed by Time magazine as the Arabian Warren Buffett. Prince Al-Waleed now owns more than 5% of FOX news.

You forgot Rezko and his Nation of Islam ties. (First job was with Ali, the boxer)

OTOH Rezko is never the intiator, he’s just the “mule” used by others....for a good salary of course....Wonder why he hasn’t been sentenced yet????? Waiting the congress to become more conservative so IMPEACHment will become a fact instead of cover up by current legislation?

“ISNA Approves Of Meeting With DHS Secretary; U.S. Muslim Brotherhood Likely In Attendance”

http://globalmbreport.com/?p=2104

Excerpts:

The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) has expressed its approval of a meeting held last week between “Muslim, Arab, Sikh and South Asian American community leaders” and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. According to an ISNA press release:

In a meeting with Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano yesterday to discuss joint efforts against domestic violent extremists, Muslim, Arab, Sikh and South Asian American community leaders welcomed commitments by the Secretary to promote meaningful, positive and authentic dialogue. Leaders from national and local organizations representing these communities expressed concern about DHS policies, such as racial, ethnic, and religious profiling at airports and the border, that have eroded the government’s trust and credibility with the communities. The commitments Secretary Napolitano made to these community leaders include:

-Education and training for DHS leadership to promote understanding of the Muslim, Arab, Sikh & South Asian American communities and their concerns;

-Rescinding a new Transportation Security Administration (TSA) directive targeting travelers from or through 13 predominantly Muslim nations, plus Cuba.-

-Revising a TSA directive on religious headwear, such as turbans and headscarves.-Setting limits on interrogations and searches by Customs and Border Protection agents that probe an American’s faith, politics, finances or associations, as well as cell phones, laptops and electronic devices, without any evidence of wrongdoing.

Although it is not confirmed, the press release contains a list of media contacts including leaders from ISNA, the Muslim Public Affair Council (MPAC) and the Muslim American Society (MAS) suggesting that the Muslim “community leaders” were in fact representatives of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood.

A report by the Hudson Institute has identified ISNA as a major part of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood. The organization has a long history of fundamentalism, anti-semitism, and support for terrorism and during the recent Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing trial, ISNA was named as an unindicted co-conspirator. Although recently ISNA has issued condemnations of terrorism which for the first time identify Hamas and Hezbollah by name, there is no indication that the organization has ever addressed or acknowledged its history.

MPAC was established initially in 1986 as the Political Action Committee of the Islamic Center of Southern California whose key leaders likely had their origins in the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. Since that time, MPAC has functioned as the political lobbying arm of the U.S. Brotherhood. MPAC has opposed virtually every count-terror initiative undertaken or proposed by the U.S. government. At times this opposition was said to be on civil-rights grounds but, just as often, MPAC claimed that U.S. counter-terror efforts were aimed at the U.S. Muslim community itself. MPAC has constructed and consistently espoused an elaborate ideology defending the use of violence by Islamists and Islamist organizations.

The MAS was identified in the Hudson Institute report as a part of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood and closely tied to the Egyptian organization. The organization is notable for its extensive grassroots organization and its ties to far-left organizations.

Thanks for the info on Rezko re: Muhammed Ali.

Yes, I think the American people are willing to wait for the midterm elections and see if the congress becomes more conservative so IMPEACHment will become a fact instead of a dream. If that doesn’t ahppen, however, or if no one moves toward impeachment and Obama continues with the executive orders at the same pace, I believe the people will lose patience and there is likely to be widespread social unrest and non-election-oriented political upheaval.

Yep, it’s like America is a sherman tank and the terrorists have figured out that if they get close enough to be part of the tank, the tank cannot shoot at them. Therefore, they remain unhurt even though there are loyal soldiers in the tank and the terrorists can even attempt to adjust the direction the turret and gun are pointing to suit their own agenda. Also, if the loyal soldiers attempt to crawl out of the tank to engage the enemy directly the enemy will just set off grenades and take everybody out; the terrorists are happy to serve as suicide bombers.

And let's not forget our current Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's cozy relationship with several of the slimeballs mentioned in this article. Remember this?

During her 2000 Senate campaign, Clinton took $1000 from Alamoudi when he was head of the American Muslim Council. She was forced to return the money when news got out that he voiced support for Palestinian terrorists. (She listed his group as the "American Museum Council" in her donor report to the FEC, an attempt critics say to disguise Alamoudi as a curator rather than a terrorist supporter. As first lady, Hillary had hosted Alamoudi at the White House.

Hillary takes cash from terror suspects

To: concerned about politics

Wonder where Zero gets his belief in Lying constantly:

2. DECEPTION- In order to defend Islam (Islamism) from charges that it is inherently violent/terroristic, the Brotherhood deceives the public about the nature of Jihad. This is necessary because Jihad plays an important role for Islamism and the Brotherhood and if the connection between Islam and violence is to be denied, Jihad must be explained away. Again, the Brotherhood represents the “Jihadism” of the Islamists as opposed to the “classical Jihad” of Islam but since that distinction is also lost on the public, the Brotherhood defends Jihad. It does so usually in one of two ways, sometimes employing both deceptions. First, the Brotherhood claims that Jihad has little or no connection to violence and warfare (i.e. there is no “Holy War”), and is instead akin to various forms of inner struggle or self-improvement. Second, the Brotherhood suggests that Jihad is a form of “freedom fighting”, even comparing Jihad to the American Revolution. Lately, there has been a suggestion that Jihad should be replaced with the term “Hirabah” which, if successful, would represent a victory for the Brotherhood deception strategy
