In PJ Media this morning, I discuss the latest Islamic supremacist Barack Obama has appointed to a position in his administration: the Muslim Public Affairs Council’s supremely arrogant Salam al-Marayati:
It would be inconceivable for Barack Obama to appoint a man who had
praised the Ku Klux Klan to a commission discussing race relations; what
he has actually done, however, is all too predictable. Obama has
appointed a man who has praised Hamas and Hizballah, and blamed Israel
for 9/11, to be the United States” representative at the Organization
for Security and Co-operation in Europe’s (OSCE) annual 10-day human
rights conference, the Human Dimension Implementation Meetings (HDIM).The Obama State Department is sending Salam al-Marayati, founder and
executive director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC), to the
OSCE conference. The foremost problem with this appointment is that
al-Marayati was one of the first 9/11 truthers out of the box, ready
with an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory on the very day of the attacks.
On September 11, 2001, al-Marayati appeared on a radio show in Los
Angeles to discuss the jihad attacks in New York and Washington, and said:
“If we”re going to look at suspects, we should look to the groups that
benefit the most from these kinds of incidents, and I think we should
put the state of Israel on the suspect list because I think this diverts
attention from what’s happening in the Palestinian territories so that
they can go on with their aggression and occupation and apartheid
policies.”These remarks are not anomalous for al-Marayati, who has claimed
that the jihad terrorist group Hizballah is working for “liberation and
resistance,” and has refused to call it a terrorist group. Likewise,
al-Marayati has said optimistically that Hizballah’s Sunni counterpart
Hamas will eventually gain acceptance:Yesterday”s terrorists in the Middle East are today”s
leaders. The PLO is the number one example of this. “¦ The PLO 35 years
ago was considered a terrorist organization, nobody should deal with
them. “¦ But they became the people in authority, in Palestine, today. So
Hamas today, the way it’s being viewed, is exactly how the PLO was
viewed 30 years ago. And in fact, even Hamas in terms of its social and
educational operations is doing exactly what the PLO was doing 35 years
ago, as well as its quote unquote military operations….MPAC is widely regarded as a “moderate” Muslim organization, and has
even sponsored a “National Anti-Terrorism Campaign” ostensibly dedicated
to helping Muslims help law enforcement officials root jihad terrorists
and their sympathizers out of Muslim communities in the U.S. Or at
least that’s what the mainstream media assumed that the campaign was
dedicated to doing; in reality, however,
it was much less concerned with identifying jihadists within American
Muslim communities than with shielding Muslims from uncomfortable
attention from law enforcement….With such men and others like them already representing the Obama
administration, what’s one more Islamic supremacist? But how many is
enough — not for Obama, but for the American people?
