• CAIR,  Day By Day,  Hamas

    Day By Day April 23, 2011 – Beer Goggles

    Day By Day by Chris Muir

    Patrick Poole’s original piece is here.

    During the House Homeland Security hearing last month on the topic of radicalization in the American Muslim community, one exchange between L.A. County Sheriff Lee Baca and Rep. Chip Cravaack (R-MN) concerned the relationship between the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department and Hamas terrorist front the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Sheriff Baca told the congressman:

    We don’t play around with criminals in my world. If CAIR is an organization that is a quote “criminal organization,” prosecute them. Hold them accountable and bring them to trial.

    But according to a high-ranking source within the Department of Justice, who spoke exclusively to Pajamas Media on the condition of anonymity, Sheriff Baca, a long-time supporter of CAIR, was probably already in on the joke.

    The joke is that a number of leaders of Islamic organizations (all of whom publicly opposed the King hearings on Muslim radicalization) were about to be indicted on terror finance support charges by the U.S. attorney’s office in Dallas, which had been investigating the case for most of the past decade.

    But those indictments were scuttled last year at the direction of top-level political appointees within the Department of Justice (DOJ) — and possibly even the White House.

    Included in those indictments was at least one of the co-founders of CAIR, based on “Declination of Prosecution of Omar Ahmad,” a March 31 DOJ legal memo from Assistant Attorney General David Kris to Acting Deputy Attorney General Gary Grindler. A second DOJ official familiar with the investigation independently confirmed these details. Omar Ahmad is one of CAIR’s co-founders and its chairman emeritus. He was personally named, along with CAIR itself, as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terror finance trial in 2007 and 2008. During the trial FBI Agent Lara Burns testified that both Omar Ahmad and current CAIR executive director Nihad Awad were caught on FBI wiretaps attending a 1993 meeting of Hamas leaders in Philadelphia.

    Dean Boyd, public affairs representative for the DOJ National Security Division, declined to provide me a copy of the March 31, 2010, memo dropping the Omar Ahmad prosecution. Directing me to submit a FOIA request, Boyd did say that “as a general rule, internal DOJ deliberation memos spelling out arguments for or against potential prosecution of any particular suspect are not public.”

    Pajamas Media will be filing a FOIA request for all the related documents in this case.

    Read it all and be prepared to be pissed off with your government.

    An updated post is here.

    On the heels of last week’s article by Patrick Poole, Rep. Peter King (R-NY) has sent a letter to Eric Holder this morning demanding answers as to why the Department of Justice decided not to prosecute CAIR, its co-founder Omar Ahmad, and others regarding the Holy Land Foundation case.

    These investigations are not going away anytime soon.

    Israel Bombs Hamas and Obama Plays Golf

    Obama-playing-golf-while-Ga

    This is change Americans can believe in, right? “The One” was nebulous about Israel during his campaign and why not let President Bush clean up his own Middle East mess? You know the doctrine of having one President at a time.

    But the enlightened European press may be losing patience with the “Messiah” who was to deliver miracles to a waiting public.

    Barack Obama remained silent over the violence in Gaza as Israel today threatened to continue its attacks for weeks.

    Instead, the President-elect is continuing his 12-day Christmas holiday in Hawaii and was seen enjoying a round of golf.

    He joined a group of friends at a private club near his £6million rented, beach-front holiday home yesterday.

    Meanwhile, 9,000 miles away in the Middle East, Israel today rejected any truce with Hamas and said it was ready for ‘long weeks of action’ in the Gaza Strip.

    Obama will be President soon enough and will actually have to make decisions.

    Flap is not optimistic that he can rise to the challenge. A good speech with a teleprompter does not a good President make.

    The domestic and foreign terrorism connections that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have are stark and startling. For them “soft on terrorism” has reached the level of acceptance of their views as mainstream and for use as political advanatage/expedience.

    Barack Obama on Weather Underground bomber William Ayers:

    • “This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood, who’s a professor of English in Chicago, who I know and who I have not received an official endorsement from,” Obama said. “He’s not somebody who I exchange ideas with on a regular basis.”
    • “The notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8 years old, somehow reflects on me and my values doesn’t make much sense.”

    But, the relationship of Obama with domestic terrorists/bombers Bill Ayers and his wife Bernardine Dorn is deeper. Read about the details here. And, Billy Ayers is NOT a simple Professor of English and Obama is lying about their relationship.

    Then, there is Hillary and Bill Clinton’s involvement with FALN.

    The FALN clemencies provide a disturbing example of how the abuse or misuse of presidential prerogative, under the guise of policy, can be put in service of the personal and private activities of the president’s spouse — and beyond the reach of meaningful congressional oversight.

    Got it?

    Michael Ramirez on Jimmy Carter negotiating with Hamas

    News Item: Carter: Hamas is willing to accept Israel as its neighbor

    Hamas, a militant Islamic group that both the U.S. and Israel consider a terrorist organization, calls in its charter for Israel’s destruction. It has also traditionally opposed peace negotiations with the Jewish state.

    Sami Abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman, later said Carter’s comments “do not mean that Hamas is going to accept the result of the referendum.”

    Carter’s comments came after his much criticized meetings with the top Hamas leaders in Syria in last week.

    Former President Jimmy Carter has NO standing or credibility in these “talks” with the terrorist organization Hamas.

    Shouldn’t Hillary and Obama repudiate him as Israel has?

    Hamas accuses West of playing politics with aid

    US and Israeli leaders pledged Tuesday to support the emergency Palestinian cabinet in the
    West Bank, as Hamas accused the West of playing politics with aid after the Islamist group ousted its rivals from Gaza.

    US President George W. Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert both gave strong backing to the cabinet appointed by moderate president Mahmud Abbas after Hamas’s takeover of Gaza as they held their third Washington talks in barely a year.

    Bush said he hoped Abbas and his new US-educated prime minister Salam Fayyad “will be strengthened to the point where they can lead the Palestinians in a different direction.”

    Olmert said: “I want to strengthen the moderates and cooperate” with Abbas, and raised the prospect of an easing of security controls in the occupied West Bank as well as the release of hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenues owed to the Palestinian Authority.

    Hamas still refuses to recognize Abbas’s dismissal of the national unity government it led until last Thursday and accused the West of trying to manipulate Palestinian public opinion.

    “By announcing their political and financial support for the Palestinian Authority, the West is backing an illegitimate government,” Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri charged.

    Western support for Fayyad’s government was “an attempt to manipulate the Palestinian people and distance it from Hamas,” he said, adding that the strategy would not work.

    Hamas’s seizure of Gaza after vicious street battles with Fatah loyalists that left more than 110 people dead has driven a deep wedge in Palestinian society.

    So, Hams complains about playing politics?

    Good Grief…….

    U.S. offers aid to Abbas-led Palestinian government.

    The United States joined the European Union on Monday in announcing its willingness to resume hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to the new Palestinian government led by President Mahmoud Abbas.The commitment of financial and political support follows last week’s gunbattles between rival Palestinian factions that led to Hamas routing Fatah forces in Gaza loyal to Abbas and the crumbling of a Fatah-Hamas unity government.

    In response, Abbas declared a state of emergency and appointed a new Cabinet of political independents based in the West Bank.

    U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said she spoke by phone with newly appointed Prime Minister Salam Fayyad on Monday. “I told him that the United States would resume full assistance to the Palestinian government and normal government-to-government contacts,” Rice said.

    Rice added that the United States will give up to $86 million to help build the government infrastructure, such as improving roads and providing drinking water. …

    President Bush called Abbas on Monday and pledged his support to the president and “those Palestinian moderates who are working to better the lives of Palestinians and work toward a Palestinian state living side by side in peace with Israel,” National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe said.

    “Palestinian moderates”? It was Fatah’s Abbas who refused to disarm Palestinian militant groups, including Hamas and the “armed wing” of his own party, even after continued terrorist attacks. It was Fatah terrorists who claimed joint responsibility with Hamas for the suicide-bombing mother who murdered four people. Abbas has called Israel the “Zionist enemy”. It is Fatah whose name means “conquest” and whose logo still includes an AK-47 and a grenade.

    There’s so little difference between Hamas and Fatah that you can barely tell them apart: Fatah photo and Hamas photo. The only real difference is that Hamas is more open about its intent to destroy Isreal.

    *********

    You mean the ENEMY OF MY ENEMY IS MY FRIEND – so give them aid?

    Sounds like United States policy with Saddam Hussein, Iraq and Iran.

    Israel Watch: Israeli War with Hamas Inevitable?

    A Palestinian miltant from Hamas stands guard in front of a mural showing the late Fatah leader Yasser Arafat outside his former compound and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ office that was taken over two days ago by Hamas, in Gaza City, Saturday, June 16, 2007. The United States strengthened its offer of support for President Mahmoud Abbas on Saturday, telling him an international aid embargo against the Palestinians would end as soon as he forms a new government without Hamas, aides to Abbas and a Western diplomat said.

    Israel plans attack on Gaza

    ISRAEL’s new defence minister Ehud Barak is planning an attack on Gaza within weeks to crush the Hamas militants who have seized power there.

    According to senior Israeli military sources, the plan calls for 20,000 troops to destroy much of Hamas’s military capability in days.

    The raid would be triggered by Hamas rocket attacks against Israel or a resumption of suicide bombings.

    Barak, who is expected to become defence minister tomorrow, has already demanded detailed plans to deploy two armoured divisions and an infantry division, accompanied by assault drones and F-16 jets, against Hamas.

    Israel cannot tolerate an active terrorist Hamas on its border.

    And who is responsible for encircling Israel, america’s ally in the Global War on Terror with aggressive terrorist supporting states – Hezbollah in the North and Hamas in the West and Syria?

    Why, Iran.

    Fox News: Hamas ‘Mickey Mouse’ Wants Islam Takeover

    Hamas militants have enlisted the iconic Mickey Mouse to broadcast their message of Islamic dominion and armed resistance to their most impressionable audience — little kids.A giant black-and-white rodent — named “Farfour,” or “butterfly,” but unmistakably a Mickey ripoff — does his high-pitched preaching against the U.S. and Israel on a children’s show run each Friday on Al-Aqsa TV, a station run by Hamas. The militant group, sworn to Israel’s destruction, shares power in the Palestinian government.

    “You and I are laying the foundation for a world led by Islamists,” Farfour squeaked on a recent episode of the show, which is titled, “Tomorrow’s Pioneers.”

    “We will return the Islamic community to its former greatness, and liberate Jerusalem, God willing, liberate Iraq, God willing, and liberate all the countries of the Muslims invaded by the murderers.”

    Children call in to the show, many singing Hamas anthems about fighting Israel.

    Israel has long complained that the Palestinian airwaves are filled with incitement.

    An Israeli organization that monitors Palestinian media, Palestian Media Watch, said the Mickey Mouse lookalike takes “every opportunity to indoctrinate young viewers with teachings of Islamic supremacy, hatred of Israel and the U.S., and support of ‘resistance,’ the Palestinian euphemism for terror.”

    Hamas later announced that it would remove Jihad Mickey, but it didn’t last long. FOX News reported this weekend: Hamas Continues Running Kids TV Show Featuring ‘Mickey Mouse’ Look-Alike Preaching Terror.

    Just like the Nazis……indoctrinate them young and achieve your goal at all costs.

    Have they no shame?

    Apparently NOT…….

    Fox News: Longtime Aide to Jimmy Carter Resigns, Claims Carter’s New Book Is Filled With Factual Errors

    A longtime aide to Jimmy Carter has resigned from the Carter Center think tank, calling the former president’s new book on Israel and the Arabs one-sided and filled with errors.

    Kenneth Stein, the Carter Center’s first executive director and founder of its Middle East program, sent a letter that bluntly criticized the book to Carter and others.

    Stein wrote that the book, “Palestine: Peace, Not Apartheid,” was replete with factual errors, material copied from other sources and “simply invented segments,” according to an excerpt of the letter published by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

    Deanna Congileo, Carter’s spokeswoman, said the former president stands by the book.

    Stein, who is also director of the Institute for the Study of Modern Israel at Emory University, did not immediately return a call Wednesday.

    Carter issued a brief statement saying that Stein had not been actively involved with the center for more than 12 years and was not involved with the new book. Carter did not directly address Stein’s allegations.

    Powerline has more. And at Huffington Post, Alan Dershowitz details many of the errors he found in Carter’s “indecent book.”

    Isn’t former President Jimmy Carter ready for retirement yet? He was the WORST American President in the 20th century and he continues on and on with misguided policies and outright lies.

    Jimmy give it a rest.

    Who publishes his crap anyway?

    CNN: 13,000 Palestinian security forces maintain cease-fire

    Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Sunday ordered 13,000 security forces to deploy near the border to enforce a cease-fire agreement with Israel, sources in Abbas’ office told CNN.

    The move came hours after Palestinian militants in Gaza apparently launched nearly a dozen rockets toward Israel.

    Abbas also called on the Palestinian factions who previously negotiated the cease-fire to meet again to ensure the agreement holds, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told reporters Sunday.

    The Israeli leader said his country will not take immediate action in the wake of the violations.

    “Israel is a powerful country that can allow itself to show restraint and to give the cease-fire a chance to be fully implemented,” Olmert said.

    Hamas’ militant wing and the Islamic Jihad militant group claimed responsibility for firing several rockets into Israel after the cease-fire took effect at 6 a.m. (11 p.m. ET Sunday).

    In its leaflet, Islamic Jihad said it will “hold our right for resistance as long as Israel continues its aggression.”

    And the cease-fire with Hezbollah is tenuous with the recent assassination of Lebanese Industry Minister Pierre Gemayel.

    Two war fronts for Israel and also Iran. The Israelis have their plate full.
