Trudeau, John Kerry discussed incoming U.S. administration during Aga Khan trip (lobbying scandal)

Prime minister says it's not up to him to determine who the Aga Khan invites to his residences

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he and former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry talked about the then-incoming Trump administration and the general state of the world when the two of them were on the Aga Khan's private island in late 2016.

During an interview this week with The Canadian Press, Trudeau shed a bit more light on his direct interactions with Kerry, who happened to be at the spiritual leader's island in the Bahamas at the same time as the prime minister during his personal — and controversial — family vacation.

In December, the federal ethics commissioner concluded Trudeau violated conflict-of-interest rules when he vacationed at the private island without seeking her approval ahead of time. Mary Dawson's report referenced a "senior American official of a previous administration" present on the island — since confirmed by the Prime Minister's Office to be Kerry.

Trudeau said that the Christmas trip, that was bought and paid for by Aga Khan was purely a 'vacation' with an old friend (who he hadn't seen since the death of his father 17 years earlier)... But both the Aga Khan and Kerry are always lobbying for something, and they were obviously lobbying Just not Ready Trudeau.

Depending on the substance of that conversation, Kerry might have violated the Logan Act.

You've gotta admire John Friggin’ Kerry.There aren't many guys on his planet who can claim to have married a billion and a half dollars in their lives.

Updating the geography:
Bell Island = Bell’s Cay visit GoogleEarth

The Aga Khan, who is the spiritual guide of the world’s 15 million Ismaili Muslims, a Swiss-born fellow know as Prince Shah Karim Al Hussaini.

Also research the Aga Khan Development Network, a recipient of Canadian foreign aid.

REFERENCE---Texas has (a) the first Sharia Court, (b) a triumphal mosque,
and, (c) an Asian Immersion School in the US. How'd that happen?

Circa 2003: then-Gov Rick Perry advances Muslim teachings; builds mosque; sets up Texas Sharia Court

Then-Gov Rick Perry signs agreement with the Aga Khan--Muslim leader.

PERRY: “It is a great honor to be in the presence of the Imam of 16 million Muslims around the world, a global humanitarian leader, a man of peace with a pluralistic vision for people around the world, His Highness, the Aga Khan, the 49th Hereditary Imam of the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims.

PERRY: Your Highness, on behalf of 23 million Texans, and over 600,000 thousand Muslims living in Texas, I extend our heartfelt appreciation for your 50 years of great international leadership."

PERRY: "We are delighted to welcome you to the Lone Star State and participate in the celebration of your Golden Jubilee. I am also grateful to the many federal, state and local leaders in attendance tonight. By their presence, these special guests convey the profound respect that exists in the Western World for His Highness’ work and leadership.”

In April 2004, the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) and Univ of Texas-Austin finalized a grant proposal that created the partnership that became known as the Muslim Histories and Cultures Program (MHC).

MHC recruited and directly trained 80 teachers affecting approximately 15,150 students of World History and World Geography in ten key Texas districts in 2005 and 2006.

The purpose is two-fold 1) to fulfill Governor Rick Perry’s desire to better educate Texas teachers on Muslim topics and 2) to train teachers to use a cultural lens approach to understanding other cultures.

GOVERNOR'S OFFICE STATEMENT : Governor Perry was instrumental in getting this program off the ground (and was helpful in getting a triumphal mosque built in Texas, and placing Sharia Law in the Texas justice system). ####

Putting it all in perspective: Yep one paragraph broken for readability.

The promised descendant of the Prophet Muhammad who brings justice to the world and relieves it of oppression and injustice is called al-Mahdi, meaning, “the one rightly guided by God.” Sunni Muslims, Twelver Shi‘as and many Sufis expect this descendant of the Prophet, al-Mahdi, to be a single messianic person who appears in the future shortly before the Day of Judgment and who relieves the entire world of injustice and brings relief to humankind in just a few years (or just one night per some traditions).

[inserted break] Meanwhile, the Shi‘a Ismaili Imams and Ismaili Muslim thinkers have explained that al-Mahdi is not a single person but actually a function undertaken by some of the hereditary Shi‘a Ismaili Imams from the progeny of Prophet Muhammad and Imam ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib.

[insert break] Throughout history, only a certain number of Imams have had the practical means to undertake such a grand mission of establishing justice and equity and removing oppression and injustice from the world because most of the Ismaili Imams have been heavily persecuted. For example, the founder of the Fatimid Caliphate, Imam ‘Abdullah al-Mahdi, and the Fatimid-Imam Caliphs each performed the function or mission of the Mahdi. The Mahdi is therefore a mission carried out by several Shi‘a Ismaili Imams and not a specific individual.

Aga Kahn played tennis with Bush Sr at Yale, builds all the US based mosques... and just happens to own all the land along the Afghani border where all the good heroin grows to make Oxyconton. Also, one of the richest men in the world.
