More Proof Kerry Will Surrender to Muslim Jihadis
When we said Teresa Kerry gave donations to
organizations that included CAIR - the radical,
terror-supporting Council on American Islamic relations
- Kerry supporters cried "foul!" It wasn't true. It
was a hoax....
As they say, the friends of my enemy are my enemy.

Kerry and CAIR for president?

The November presidential elections are weeks away, and
the quest to get out the vote is in full swing. But
when some swing voters have links to radical Islam,
motives for eliciting their support must be
questioned.
An e-mail announcement, dated Oct. 13 was sent out by
the president of the Muslim Student Organization of
Florida Atlantic University, Asmaa Metwally. It stated
the following:
"Former Ambassador Osman Siddique, a representative
from the John Kerry campaign will be coming to the
Pompano Beach Masjid this coming Saturday, Oct. 16 at
7 p.m. (iftar time), to rally up the Muslim vote for
John Kerry."
It's surprising that Asmaa Metwally would be the
dispatcher of an announcement for a campaign for
president of the United States, as his name appears on
an endorsement of another event put on by the Palestine
Solidarity Movement, a group that has, on numerous
occasions, turned a blind eye to terrorist attacks
against innocent Israeli civilians.
But then, as we read on in the e-mail, we find out that
the Kerry event is being hosted by a Dr. Maged
Metwally, an obvious relation to Asmaa.
Following this bit of information comes the real surprise.
The event again, an event for a campaign for president
of the United States is being held, as stated in the
e-mail, "in coordination with the Pompano Beach Masjid
and CAIR." As the late announcer of the New York
Yankees, Phil Rizzuto, would say, "Holy Cow!"
CAIR, or the Council on American-Islamic Relations, is
an organization that purports to be a harmless
civil-rights group fighting against discrimination of
the Muslim community. Yet, evidence shows that CAIR is
nothing more than a militant Islamist organization.
CAIR is a spin-off of the Islamic Association for
Palestine, an organization that was founded by current
Hamas leader Mousa Abu Marzook. CAIR's executive
director, Nihad Awad, himself, has stated that he
supports Hamas.
Numerous leaders of CAIR have been cited for their
involvement in nefarious activities. They include:
a.. Ghassan Elashi (founding board member of CAIR's
Texas chapter) was chairman of Holy Land Foundation for
Relief and Development, which was shut down by the
United States for raising millions of dollars for
Hamas; in July of 2004, was convicted of conspiracy,
money laundering and making false statements about
shipments of high-tech equipment to countries deemed
state sponsors of terrorism.
b.. Randall Todd "Ismail" Royer (national staff member
of CAIR) past communications director of the Muslim
American Society, an organization that publishes
materials calling suicide bombings against Israelis
justifiable; in April of 2004, was sentenced to 20
years in prison for his participation in a network of
al-Qa'ida-related militant jihadists centered in
northern Virginia.
c.. Bassem Khafagi (CAIR's community director) was
co-founder and past president of the Islamic Assembly
of North America, an organization that has been
investigated for possible funding to terrorist-related
groups and publishing of materials calling for suicide
bombings in the United States; in November of 2003, was
sentenced to prison for bank fraud and making false
statements on his visa application; was later deported
to Egypt.
d.. Rabih Haddad (fund-raiser for CAIR's Ann Arbor
chapter) was co-founder and past executive director
and public relations director for Global Relief
Foundation, which was shut down by the United States
for its financing of terrorist groups, specifically
al-Qaida; was arrested by INS for visa violations, in
December of 2001 and was later deported to Lebanon.
e.. Siraj Wahhaj (national board member of CAIR) in
February of 1995, was named by federal prosecutor Mary
Jo White as a possible co-conspirator to the 1993
bombing of the World Trade Center; was a character
witness for Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, who is serving a
life sentence for his part in the '93 bombing
conspiracy; currently sits on the board of directors of
the radical Islamic Society of North America.
Steven Pomerantz, former FBI assistant director and
chief of the FBI's Counter-Terrorism Section, has
stated, "CAIR, its leaders, and its activities
effectively give aid to international terrorist
groups." And "CAIR is but one of a new generation of
groups in the United States that hide under a veneer of
'civil rights' or 'academic' status but in fact are
tethered to a platform that supports terrorism."
Why would John Kerry, a candidate for president of the
United States, allow himself or his campaign to be
involved with such a group as this? And will a vote
for John Kerry for president mean a vote for CAIR in
the White House, as well?
