Ahmed said the Philadelphia gathering attended by CAIR's founder "was an open meeting of Palestinian activists who came together to discuss the Olso peace accords and their struggle to gain a homeland."

Obligatory apology soon to follow.

["For the first time, evidence in the case put CAIR's founder, Nihad Awad, at a Philadelphia meeting of alleged Hamas supporters that was secretly watched and recorded by the FBI."]

We had better be doing a LOT of surveillance. Every Muslim group in the country should be getting an anal exam.

["Parvez Ahmed, chairman of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, denied that his group or its current or former leaders had any ties to Hamas -- "That's one of those urban legends about CAIR," he said. "It's fed by the right-wing, pro-Israeli blogosphere.""]

Apparently, also fed by the FBI.

["Some of the evidence in the case came from wiretaps, including an FBI recording of the Philadelphia meeting at which participants referred to helping Hamas or Samah — Hamas spelled backward."]

"Samah, Hamas spelled backward..."

"Oooooh. I like that!"

bump for publicity

Last weekend, Bob Brinker (on his “Money Talk” radio show) had terrorism
expert Stephen Emerson as a guest.
Emerson said that the “Holy Land Foundation” case on-going in Texas
should have been on the front page of every US major newspaper.
(of course, it’s mostly been effectively subjected to a press embargo”)

That’s a good sign to me. It probably means that the fellow-travelers
in the MSM (to the Islamics) think the verdict will go against
The Holy Land Foundation. And thus want to “deep-six” the story.

The MSM is preparing their “it ain’t no big deal” “it’s bogus”
story line...just the same Bravo Sierra they rolled out when
Padilla and company were convicted.

“Parvez Ahmed, chairman of the Council on American-Islamic Relations,
denied that his group or its current or former leaders had any
ties to Hamas.”

Well, not according to “Discover The Network” (David Horowitz):

In its earliest days, HLF received a $200,000 cash infusion from Ghassan
Elashi’s brother-in-law Musa Abu Marzook, the Hamas senior political
leader and Virginia resident who would be deported in 1997 for
his involvement in six terror attacks in Israel that killed 47 people.
By 1989, HLF had already sent nearly $1 million to Marzook and Hamas
co-founder Ahmed Yassin (to the latter through an account called
the Islamic Center of Gaza — another ostensibly charitable entity
used by Yassin to finance Hamas activities).

...(BIG SNIP)...

On December 4, 2001, the Bush administration seized all HLF assets
and records because of its Hamas connections.

There is no such thing as a muslim charity.
All proceeds go to organizations that want to see us dead.

We didn’t allow the German American Bunds to operate in America, why are we allowing muzzie mosques to operate in America.

Sooner or later we are going to have to give the muzzies the jihad they so desperately want. And this time we will finish the job.

“Invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren’t punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That’s war. And this is war.”
