In Obama's Cairo speech he stated that he was going to help American Muslims help fulfill their obligations to zakat, or giving to charities. This is one of the five pillars of Islam. Apparently the fact that millions of dollars donated to Islamic charities ends up in the hands of Islamic terrorists does not matter to Mr.Obama

Barry’s ‘zakat’ was almost ZERO (and Slow Joe’s, too) in the years leading up to the immaculation.

"Nine-eleven was an enormous trauma to our country. The fear and anger that it provoked was understandable,
but in some cases, it led us to act contrary to our traditions and our ideals.
We are taking concrete actions to change course.
I have unequivocally prohibited the use of torture by the United States,
and I have ordered the prison at Guantanamo Bay closed by early next year. (Applause.)"

Just last week, a federal judge in Dallas sentenced five leaders of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development to between 15 and 65 years in prison after they were convicted of providing material support to Hamas.

The judge is just an evil white racist I'm sure. /s

Read this if you want to know why he wants "zakat." It's an article by Frank Gaffney and David Yerushalemi in the National Review.

NR Article "A Win for the Good Guys

AIG is now owned by the US govt and has been trying very hard to get a sharia-compliant financing program in operation. A US citizen filed a complaint, and the court just found for the citizen.

From article: The problem with all of this public largesse is that AIG sponsors, pays for, and aggressively markets sharia-compliant insurance products. The practice of sharia finance has created lucrative advisory positions for often radical imams, who get paid to guarantee the religious “purity” of sharia-compliant products. Such vehicles typically follow the Muslim principle of zakat and donate a slice of their profits to charity. Unfortunately, many of the charities receiving these funds have links to terrorism.

Also, read this:

The facts are, as Judge Zatkoff observed, damning: The government owns and controls AIG. Taxpayer funds authorized by an explicit legislative grant are being used to pay sharia authorities — in other words, they’re being used to legitimate and promote Islamic religious law.

That's why Bambi is suddenly so concerned with "charity."

Apparently Lord Zero wanted to be sure muslims everywhere heard his message. Some 20,000 text messages were sent out around the word to carry the text of his speech in Cairo. The speech was translated into 13 languages.

Does ANYONE still doubt where Obama’s priorities lie?

The black racist, arrogant Marxist and Muslim truly believes he is operating in a vacuum and immune from the consequences.

It's not true that it "does not matter to Mr. 0bama".

It does matter; he thinks it's a good thing that the donations end up in the hands of Islamic terrorists.

The problem is that zakat is SUPPOSED to go to jihadis.

Zakat is NOT "charity for the poor". It is a mandatory tithe for the support of the Islamic community. Designated recipients of it include the poor, yes, BUT also the imams and those who "strive in the cause of Allah"(jihad).
