Former City Engineer Lived Secret Double Life as Singer, Actor at Hamas Fundraisers

By Todd Bensman and Robert Riggs

It’s hard to imagine that Mufid Abdulqader is the same man on stage wearing a traditional Palestinian Kafiyeh and desert robe, singing with gusto to a large admiring audience.

The naturalized U.S. citizen belting out the Arabic language tune tune while wearing traditional grab had, for more than eight years, worked by day for the city of Dallas in the mild-mannered field of civil engineering. He held a masters degree, had wife, kids, a mortgage and professional respect from colleagues and from the city’s top leaders for his work.

It’s even harder to imagine that this professionally accomplished, highly affable public servant by day, was on weekends singing the praises of the terrorist organization Hamas, encouraging martyrs to kill Jews and glorifying violent Jihad.

TEXAS MUSLIMS HOST AYATOLLAH KHOMEINI TRIBUTE
INTERNET FUELS CONTROVERSY OVER CONFERENCE ATTENDED BY "MAINSTREAM" MUSLIM LEADERS

By Todd Bensman and Robert Riggs

IRVING, TX. -- A North Texas Muslim organization last week staged a "Tribute" conference honoring the life and works of the "Great Islamic Visionary" Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. The late Iranian leader's legacy includes the 1979 American hostage crisis, the first large-scale terrorist bombings against Americans, and a strict Islamist government accused by President George Bush of making up part of an international "Axis of Evil."
