Obama To Attend Pro-Islamist Conference
Obama
will visit Turkey between April 6-7 to
attend an annual forum of the Alliance of Civilizations in Istanbul,
Spanish diplomatic sources said on Monday. Turkey’s president said
Tuesday Obama's planned visit was very important. Obama will attend the
second annual forum of the U.N.-led Alliance of Civilizations
initiative, co-chaired by Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan and his
Spanish counterpart Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero.
The
Global Muslim Brotherhood Report describes the Alliance of Civilizations
as an organization which is represented in the U.S. and Europe by
individuals sympathetic to the global
Muslim Brotherhood. According to
the AOC website, the AOC "High Level Group Members" in the U.S. and
Western Europe are: Prof. John Esposito (United States), Rabbi Arthur Schneier (United States), Hubert
Védrine (France), and Karen Armstrong (United Kingdom)
Esposito is an
apologist for the radical Islamist movement;
Impugning those
who equate Islamist movements "with radicalism and terrorism," Esposito
claims that such thinking merely "becomes a convenient pretext for
crushing political opposition." Islamist movements, he explains,
"are not necessarily anti-Western, anti-American, or anti-democratic."
Moreover, he minimizes the fact that those nations that have adopted
Islamic law are, for the most part, totalitarian states that export
terrorism and egregiously violate the human rights of their inhabitants.
" Contrary to what some have advised," he writes, "the United States
should not in principle object to implementation of Islamic law or
involvement of Islamic activists in government."
In fact
all of the attendees above are apologists of either the radical Islamist
movement or to the Muslim Brotherhood.
The question is why is the
US Commander of Chief of a War on Terrorism attending a conference that
supports a radical Islamist point of view?
Judges should interpret the Constitution
according to other nations' legal "norms." Sharia law could apply to
disputes in US courts. The United States constitutes an "axis of
disobedience" along with North Korea and Saddam-era Iraq.
Those
are the views of the man on track to become one of the US government's
top lawyers:
Harold Koh.
President Obama has nominated Koh --
until last week the dean of Yale Law School -- to be the State
Department's legal adviser. In that job, Koh would forge a wide range of
international agreements on issues from trade to arms control, and help
represent our country in such places as the United Nations and the
International Court of Justice.
It's a job where you want a
strong defender of America's sovereignty. But that's not Koh. He's a fan
of "transnational legal process," arguing that the distinctions between
US and international law should vanish.

On the main page of the White House
website are a bunch of pictures featuring Obama.

A lawyer
involved with legal action against Association of Community
Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) told a House Judiciary subcommittee
on March 19 The New York Times had
killed a story in October that would
have shown a close link between ACORN, Project Vote and the Obama
campaign because it would have been a "a game changer."
Heather
Heidelbaugh, who represented the Pennsylvania Republican State Committee
in the lawsuit against the group, recounted for the committee what she
had been told by a former ACORN worker who had worked in the group’s
Washington, D.C. office. The former worker, Anita Moncrief, told Ms.
Heidelbaugh last October, during the state committee’s litigation
against ACORN, she had been a "confidential informant for several months
to The New York Times reporter, Stephanie Strom."
Ms. Moncrief
had been providing Ms. Strom with information about ACORN’s election
activities. Ms. Strom had written several stories based on information
Ms. Moncrief had given her.
During her testimony, Ms. Heidelbaugh
said Ms. Moncrief had told her The New York Times articles stopped when
she revealed that the Obama presidential campaign had sent its maxed-out
donor list to ACORN’s Washington, D.C. office.
Ms. Moncrief told
Ms. Heidelbaugh the campaign had asked her and her boss to "reach out to
the maxed-out donors and solicit donations from them for Get Out the
Vote efforts to be run by ACORN."
Ms. Heidelbaugh then told the
congressional panel:
"Upon learning this information and
receiving the list of donors from the Obama campaign, Ms. Strom reported
to Ms. Moncrief that her editors at The New York Times wanted her to
kill the story because, and I quote, "it was a game changer."
