Moran probably dismisses CAIR’s links to Hamas, if he has heard about them at all, as something trumped up by the “right wing.” How many other politicians have Islamic supremacists bought and paid for?
“Democrat Rep. Donates Cash To Hamas-Linked Group,” by Neil Munro, Daily Caller, September 28, 2014 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):
A Democratic congressman has donated funds to a political group that was implicated in a criminal fund-raising operation for the jihad group, Hamas.
“Thank you Congressman James Moran for his generous personal donation to @CAIRNational at #CAIRturns20,” said a tweet from Linda Sarsour, the host at a Sept. 27 fund-raiser for the jihad-linked Council on American Islamic Relations.
Sarsour did not say how much money the Democrat donated.
Moran is a Democrat who represents the Alexandria district in northern Virginia. He’s not running for reelection in 2014.
The Islamic group also gave the Democrat a “Lifetime Achievement Award” during the fundraising event, which provided CAIR with at least $350,000.
Critics say the Democrat has repeatedly suggested that Jews are responsible for starting various wars in the Arab countries….
In 2009, a judge confirmed the Justice Department’s decision to name CAIR, its founder and Awad as unindicted co-conspirators in a scheme to smuggle funds to Hamas, which is a jihadi affiliate of the Muslim Brotherhood.“The purpose of creating the Holy Land Foundation was as a fundraising arm for Hamas,” U.S. District Judge Jorge Solis said at the end of the trial.
Five men in the smuggling ring were sentenced to jail in 2009, including two who were given 65-year sentences.
Subsequently, the FBI stopped formal meetings with Awad because of his ties to Hamas, a 2009 letter from a top FBI official revealed.
According to a July new report, Awad was monitored by U.S. foreign intelligence agencies from 2002 to at least 2008.
Separately, five CAIR employees or employees have been jailed or deported for terror-related offenses….
Sarsour, for example, was lauded as a “Champion of Change” at President Barack Obama’s White House website. “Linda’s strengths are in the areas of community development, youth empowerment, community organizing, civic engagement and immigrants’ rights advocacy,” says the website….
In May 2012, a covertly-taken photograph showed Democratic leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi standing near Awad at the top-dollar fundraiser. Roughly 30 people attended the fundraiser, according to the Investigative Project on Terrorism.The cheapest tickets cost $5,000, and the most expensive were $30,800 per couple, according to the event invite from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which used the cash to fund Democratic candidates.
The hosts of the event were DCCC chairman Rep. Steve Israel and two Muslim Democratic representatives, Rep. Keith Ellison and Rep. Andre Carson….

HELLO KEITH ELLISON ! ! ! Come on — just admit it : you obsessively check Jihadwatch items several times a day.
Well, your face is back on Bobby Spencer’s page reserved for Muslims who just cannot seem to understand how they telegraph transparent intent to commit Bad Stuff.
And, BTW, congratulations for getting yourself placed on the dais with three other distinguished humans. I am going to follow this trail — count on that.

Daily Caller ran two stories about CAIR which they somehow never connected together. You link the photo from the first one and the article. Let me see if I can find the second one.

If you fill in the blanks, the Democrats apparently have found a way to funnel themselves a great deal of technically illegal foreign money. I say “technically” because the rule of law in DC is more theoretical than actual, and based in partisan affiliation more than anything else.
mortimer says
And Mr. Moran (dhimmi and jihad-enabler), what will you say when the CAIR affiliated jihadists start stabbing, beheading and blowing up Americans? They had it coming to them because of post-colonial guilt?
Joe says
Dem.James Moran,gives money to a known terror group,declared a terrorist group by our own Dept.of State.That is aiding the known enemy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Treason,I declare it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mortimer says
This bears repeating: “unindicted co-conspirators”.
Mr. Moran, please let those two words sink in a moment.
mariam rove says
unlike popular belief our system of government is not based on democracy rather it is based on bribery. Who ever gives more gets more. for this 350 K donation I am sure he is going to garner a few thousand muslim votes which means he will be in the office longer. M

Sold his soul did he? Some food for thought…
On Islam:
“What the horn is to the rhinoceros, what the sting is to the wasp, the Mohammadan faith is to the Arabs.”
ON APPEASEMENT:
“There is no greater mistake than to suppose that platitudes, smooth words, and timid policies offer a path to safety.”
“How many wars have been averted by patience and good will?”
“An appeaser is one who feeds the crocodile hoping it will eat him last.”

Quote:
Fierce fighting has been reported on the outskirts of Baghdad where ISIS militants are attempting to seize control of the Iraqi capital – despite ongoing Western airstrikes against the terror group.
The fighting is taking place just one mile to the west of the city, with government forces desperately trying to hold off the militants, who allegedly killed up to 1,000 soldiers during clashes yesterday.

Killed 1,000 in a single day?!
That’s Stalingrad level violence.
Beagle says
So, as I was saying yesterday about our people potentially becoming embroiled in a new hostage crisis which would make 1979 look like a frat party, I think I termed it. That was timely.
Terry says
This was reported last night by Anglican, Canon Adrew White, head of St. George’s Church that they had entered Baghdad. Interesting, nothing on the news last night either. He too mentioned 1,000 soldiers killed by ISIS. His mission work for Iraqi’s will make him an immediate target https://www.facebook.com/FRRME
Here are his words on becoming “more Christian” in the face of death.

The James Morans of this world have always been here. They are the ones who compromise the truth just in order to stay alive one day more. In the Nazi death camps some Jews collaborated with the guards in helping kill and dispose of the bodies. Moran is just another of these cowards, traitors who will be judged harshly when the end comes.
John C. Barile says
Well said.
Salah says
This is why I always say: The war on Jihad must begin in our own backyards: useful idiots and PC politicians are Jihad enablers. They are the enemy within.
JOHN SPIELMAN says
especially our ENABLER IN CHIEF- the Obamanation who sits in the Oval Office!
Northern Virginiastan says
All Northern Virginia politicians are tainted by their associations with Muslim Brotherhood-associated people and fronts. This is the latest outrage from Jim Moron.
My Congressional district is represented by Gerry Connolly, another pendejo who’s also close to Muslim Brotherhood-associated people and fronts.
R Cole says
Islam means peace – Dammit!!
In the UK Muslim groups do even more for their favorite politicians – they get them the votes – multiple and ofttimes nonexistent Muslims register to vote at a single address – and viola – on election day – the selected politician is pulled from the hat.
[It was reported that their activity – swayed the last UK election – denying the Conservatives of an outright win]
Though the only problem with this closeness – is that Muslim groups do have an end – and in the UK East London – as well as in Holland – several seats on the Left – fell to or came under the control of Muslim groups – as for Muslim controlled East London – there is clear ambition to develop a mini Islamic state – using state funding.
CAIR’s stated ambition is to see the Koran as the highest authority in the land. The thought of which would probably make Keith Ellison get all teary-eyed!
Carlos Danger says
MorAn?
Is that spelled correctly?
cookiebaker says
I thought that this same Congressman has a son,that was caught in some shady shenanigans. Intimidating voters or reprehensible campaign fund raising?
Moran, has a history of saying” pithy” ,anti Jewish lies, too.
