Decent piece of investigative journalism, but they radically overstate the significance. Leave it to David Horowitz' mag to characterize some tiny far left wing organization as a dire threat to America. They've worn down "traitor" and "fifth column" so much the words are meaningless.

Leave it to you to try to whitewash the activities of these people. Their membership should be decorating lampposts across the fruited plain.

I'll settle for exposing them as shills for Iraq.

Note that if a foreign country wanted to fund anti-war activism regarding Iraq, all they'd need to do is donate to a day care center in New York (and it's deductible).

First, it only says that this group is a "day care center" on the GuideStar site. That could easily be a typo made by the site, as the organization's tax form (also on the site) makes no such claim. Second, the tax form is also quite clear about how much money they receive and where it goes. They are required to list those have contributed over a certain amount, and they did. That information is not provided to the public. That's not the same thing as evasion, as he later suggests. The group's expenses are also itemized.

Was it overseas money laundered through a US citizen?

Is it possible to link the International Action Center to Iraq?

Mere speculation, and yet some of you already assume it's true. The information provided here and on the links makes no such connection. Inviting an Iraqi official to speak is not the same as being an Iraqi-funded enterprise.

I believe they are acting to disable and destruct society’s institutions in order to forward an agenda.

Now if that were the case, why are they filing their taxes?
