Aftab: Madman of the 50th Ward [Friend of Obama, Arrested...Again]
Rogers Park Bench Blogspot ^ | 10/16/2008 | Rogers Park Bench

Posted on 10/16/2008 4:25:41 PM PDT by Velveeta

One of Barack Obama's staunchest local supporters, Salman Aftab, was charged with assault and battery on October 3. The violently homophobic, former insider of failed Sunrise Equities (more below) and former Democrat candidate for city council has been arrested before.

(snip)

The Bench has learned that Aftab was involved briefly with the Obama for Illinois campaign, when Obama was running for the Illinois State Senate in 2004. At that time, Aftab was friendly with Tariq Siddiqui, a major Obama donations bundler, and was present at Sunrise Equities' offices for the ribbon cutting of the free office space given by Sunrise to Obama. Also present at that ribbon cutting: Alderman Joe Moore (49th) and Alderman Bernie Stone (50th) and Sunrise CEO Salman Ibrahim. Ibrahim went missing in August and is now the subject of an international manhunt in the aftermath of the failure of Sunrise Equities and the devastation of approximately 200 of its investors, most of whom are Muslim.

A real stretch here. Is the guy really homophobic or just doesn’t exalt deviant behavior. True homophobes were mostly molested by homosexuals when they were kids. Oddly, obama seems to support the homophilic pervert agenda.

In any case, he does seem to have a temper.

Then, on Nasim's account, Aftab got a knife from the kitchen, yelled out "gandoo," meaning "faggot bottom," declared an Islamic "jihad" against Nasim and gay Muslims

Not sure I have the answer to your question.

Ah geez, that was I thinking?

That was before he gained all his experience for the presidency by running for the presidency.
