WHITE HOUSE WILL MEET WITH MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD ACTIVISTS BUT NOT WITH NETANYAHUE

Who Is White House visitor Hisham Altalib?
by Michelle Malkin


On Friday, March 30, 2012, Hisham Y. Altalib visited the White House. According to visitor logs, Altalib was received by Joshua DuBois, the director of President Obama’s Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. Four days later, White House officials welcomed a foreign delegation of the radical Sharia-enforcing Muslim Brotherhood from Egypt.

The White House meeting with overseas Muslim Brotherhood leaders was reported in April by a few mainstream journalists and questioned loudly by conservative media. But the White House confab in March with U.S.-based Altalib — which appears to be a prep session with the global Muslim Brotherhood’s American advance team — has received no attention until now.

So, who is Hisham Yahya Altalib? What is his agenda?

And why exactly did the Obama administration conduct domestic “faith-based” outreach with this Muslim Brotherhood figure in Virginia, who just happens to be 1) tied to bloody jihad and 2) a major contributor to the left-wing Center for Constitutional Rights, the group of jihadi-sympathizing lawyers who helped spring suspected Benghazi terror plotter Abu Sufian bin Qumu from Gitmo?

Altalib is an Iraqi-born Muslim identified by the FBI as a Muslim Brotherhood operative before he moved to America in the 1970s to earn an advanced electrical engineering degree from Purdue University in Indiana. By his own account, Altalib “soon became active in Islamic work in North America, which continues to this day.”

He was the “first full-time director of the Leadership Training Department of the Muslim Students Association of the United States and Canada (MSA)” — a longtime Muslim Brotherhood front group whose explicit goal is to “conquer” America through Islamic propagandizing.

Altalib is also a founding member of the SAAR Foundation and the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT). Last year, his online biography proudly notes, he was “awarded the ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) Community Service Award.” The Saudi-subsidized ISNA is regarded as the primary U.S. umbrella group for Muslim Brotherhood fronts and was named specifically by the global MB godfathers as a key player in their “Grand Jihad” strategy of infiltration from within.

SAAR was founded in Herndon, Va., in 1983 as part of a radical Islamic charity front for Saudi financiers called the SAFA Group. The feds raided SAAR’s offices in 2002 as part of Operation Green Quest. Investigators confiscated 500 boxes and seven trucks’ worth of documents illuminating the network’s terror ties to the Al Taqwa Bank (a Swiss-based Muslim bank suspected of funding the 9/11 plot) and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Altalib worked for one of Al Taqwa Bank’s main owners, Youssef Nada. Altalib’s more prominent Muslim Brotherhood partner, Jamal Barzinji (one of the champions of the Ground Zero mosque), also worked for Nada. FBI and Customs officials believe SAAR/SAFA laundered money for a plethora of violent Muslim terrorist groups, from Hamas and Hezbollah to al-Qaida and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

Along with several other leaders of the “Ikhwan” (brothers), Altalib and Barzinji established the International Institute of Islamic Thought in Herndon, Va., in 1985. Global Muslim Brotherhood thug Yusuf al-Qaradawi — the fire-breathing, fatwa-issuing Jew-hater and violent jihad proselytizer — inspired IIIT’s mission: the “Islamization of social sciences.”

According to Steven Merley of the Hudson Institute’s Center on Islam, Democracy, and the Future of the Muslim World, IIIT has 14 affiliated offices across the U.S., Europe, the Middle East and Asia [his must-read report on the Muslim Brotherhood in the U.S. is here - PDF]. Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy, who put 1993 World Trade Center bombing mastermind Omar Abdel Rahman behind bars, notes that IIIT was a demonstrated unindicted co-conspirator in the feds’ Holy Land Foundation terror financing case. IIIT supported convicted terror aides Sami Al-Arian and Abduhrraman Rahman Alamoudi.

Altalib, Barzinji and IIIT were also all listed in funding statements from the Center for Constitutional Rights as major donors giving in the $25,000 to $49,000 range.

CCR is the umbrella group providing more than 500 pro bono lawyers to Gitmo detainees. They have regularly dismissed national security concerns about Gitmo recidivism as “irresponsible … scare stories.” That’s exactly what they did after one of CCR’s clients, Libyan terror leader Abu Sufian bin Qumu, was sprung in 2007.

Fast-forward five short years. Qumu is now the lead suspect in the 9/11/12 attack on our U.S. consulate in Benghazi that resulted in the murders of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, consular official Sean Smith, and former Navy SEALs/private security contractors Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods. In the wake of this month’s terrorist attacks on our Egyptian embassy, Libyan consulate and Afghan air base, the jihad helpers at CCR are stone silent.

This administration’s idea of domestic “faith-based outreach” is tea with Muslim Brotherhood community organizers who have embedded themselves in American life for four decades with the express intent of “eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within.” Meanwhile, our commander in chief is squawking to the world about YouTube videos. The Ikhwan are laughing their bloodstained robes off.

MEDIA PROMOTES "FAKE CROWDS" FOR OBUMMER

The Associated Press call a Milwaukee, Wisconsin crowd that did not exist "the largest yet of Obama's reelection campaign."

Tom Blumer of NewsBusters caught the AP in the lie, explaining that both Politico and the Wall Street Journal had reported turnout for Obama at the Sep. 21 event as 18,000--at an arena that only held 5,000 people.

Though the arena was nearly full--and local media reported that more were outside the arena--there is no evidence whatsoever that the 13,000 people needed to make up the difference actually showed up. No images of that crowd have yet been produced.

The AP's take: "The crowd of about 18,000 in a steady drizzle was the largest yet of Obama's reelection campaign." And yet the AP did not count the audience. Nor did the Wall Street Journal. Nor did Politico.  So where did the official-sounding number come from? The Obama campaign, according to Politico--which was the only one of the three that had the minimal integrity to report the source of the estimate (though not to challenge it).

When the mainstream media calls a crowd is "the largest yet," but overestimates it by a factor of three or even four, you have a pretty good idea of how far they are willing to go to re-elect their patron saint.

STILL UNDECIDED? READ ON....

Some may think I’m being overly dramatic, but I am serious as cancer when I say that Barack Obama is a threat to the very existence of this nation as you and I have known it. 

The freedoms, politically and economically, that we’ve enjoyed will not be around for your grandchildren if this jerk is given four more years to complete his fundamental transformation of America.  He came to this country already despising what it stood for.  His own mother took extraordinary steps to make sure he wasn’t influenced by an increasing pro-American stepfather.  When he arrived in California to attend college in 1979 he had about as much of an understanding of what it means to be an American as I had of what it means to be an Inuit whale hunter. 

Obama TOLD us what he was going to do …  “We are just five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America!” … and we were too star-struck to ask him what he meant by “fundamentally transform”  Now perhaps you know.    It involves demonizing the rich – spreading divisiveness about their need to pay their fair share – and denigrating small business owners – the very people responsible for most of the job creation in this nation.  In many cases, he has abandoned the rule of law – the auto bailout bankruptcy proceedings, gutting welfare reform without Congressional approval, circumventing Congress to implement parts of the Dream Act.  He also expressly stated that what makes America great is our government spending.  That’s it! 

We have been the Beacon on the Hill, the world economic leader and political model for years because … our government spent money?  Are you kidding me?

OBAMANOMICS: this is an amazing video. You really need to watch it.

Why Obummer stepped in and tossed Bankruptcy laws aside with GM.

Under a Chapter 11 bankruptcy the business can elect to void contracts which it deems to be injurious to the business or which the owners or managers believe would prevent a successful reorganization.  One of the principal reasons the auto industry was in trouble was …unions.  Over the years the unions had created an overwhelming array of benefits and wages that were killing the auto industry.  Some of these auto workers were making the equivalent of $75 per hour or more in wages and benefits.

As a result of the recession, and the burden of it’s current union contracts, General Motors was hinting at a Chapter 11 bankruptcy to reorganize.  The United Auto Workers Union was concerned that GM might use this bankruptcy to re-negotiate their contract, which would mean reduced pay scales and benefits.  The UAW went to Obama, reminded him of their support in the past election, and hinted that he might want to do something to save them.  BO acted quickly.  Not being a rule-of-law guy, Obummer tossed the Bankruptcy Code aside and told GM’s secured creditors that they were going to have to take a back seat to the auto worker’s union in a restructuring of General Motors. What’s more, instead of going through traditional bankruptcy reorganization procedures, the government was going to step in with a massive multi-billion dollar bailout in exchange for GM stock.  The bond holders, the SECURED bond holders, were told that they were going to have to sit back and lose money on the deal … and that’s just the way it was going to be. (Is this the new America?)

So .. just what did Obama accomplish?  At best, he saved the UAW.  If Obama had allowed the laws of this country to take their course, GM might or might not have sought court protection while reorganizing.  If GM had filed for Chapter 11 it almost certainly would have emerged, just as American and Delta Airlines did, a stronger and more financially secure company.  Obama did NOT save the auto industry.  The laws were in place that the auto industry – GM – could have used to save itself.  Obama intervened and saved his union buddies.  Anything else he tells us is plain old BULLSHIT......just like most everything else that comes out of his mouth.

Look who parks their cash at Bain ---

---What Lying Hypocrites They Are!!!!!


Democrats convened in Charlotte, NC, will double down on their claim that Bain Capital is really the Bain crime family. They will accuse Republican nominee Mitt Romney and Bain’s other “greedy” co-founders of stealing their winnings, evading taxes and lighting cigars with $100 bills on their yachts.

But Bain’s private-equity executives have enriched dozens of organizations and millions of individuals in the Democratic base — including some who scream most loudly for President Obama’s re-election.

Government-worker pension funds are the chief beneficiaries of Bain’s economic stewardship. New York-based Preqin uses public documents, news accounts and Freedom of Information requests to track private-equity holdings. Since 2000, Preqin reports, the following funds have entrusted some $1.56 billion to Bain:

* Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund ($2.2 million)
* Indiana Public Retirement System ($39.3 million)
* Iowa Public Employees’ Retirement System ($177.1 million)
* The Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension System ($19.5 million)
* Maryland State Retirement and Pension System ($117.5 million)
* Public Employees’ Retirement System of Nevada ($20.3 million)
* State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio ($767.3 million)
* Pennsylvania State Employees’ Retirement System ($231.5 million)
* Employees’ Retirement System of Rhode Island ($25 million)
* San Diego County Employees Retirement Association ($23.5 million)
* Teacher Retirement System of Texas ($122.5 million)
* Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System ($15 million)

These funds aggregate the savings of millions of unionized teachers, social workers, public-health personnel and first responders. Many would be startled to learn that their nest eggs are incubated by the company that Romney launched and the financiers he hired.

Leading universities have also profited from Bain’s expertise. According to Infrastructure Investor, Bain Capital Ventures Fund I (launched in 2001) managed wealth for “endowments and foundations such as Columbia, Princeton and Yale universities.”

According to BuyOuts magazine and S&P Capital IQ, Bain’s other college clients have included Cornell, Emory, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Notre Dame and the University of Pittsburgh. Preqin reports that the following schools have placed at least $424.6 million with Bain Capital between 1998 and 2008:

* Purdue University ($15.9 million)
* University of California ($225.7 million)
* University of Michigan ($130 million)
* University of Virginia ($20 million)
* University of Washington ($33 million)

Major, center-left foundations and cultural establishments also have seen their prospects brighten, thanks to Bain Capital. According to the aforementioned sources, such Bain clients have included the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, the Doris Duke Foundation, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Ford Foundation, the Heinz Endowments and the Oprah Winfrey Foundation.

Why on Earth would government-union leaders, university presidents and foundation chiefs let Bain oversee their precious assets?

“The scrutiny generated by a heated election year matters less than the performance the portfolio generates to the fund,” California State Teachers’ Retirement System spokesman Ricardo Duran said in the Aug. 12 Boston Globe. CalSTRS has pumped some $1.25 billion into Bain.

Since 1988, Duran says, private-equity companies like Bain have outperformed every other asset class to which CalSTRS has allocated the cash of its 856,360 largely unionized members.
Is Bain really a gang of corporate buccaneers who plunder their ill-gotten gains by outsourcing, euthanizing feeble portfolio companies and giving cancer to the spouses of those whom they fired? If so, union bosses, government retirees, liberal foundations and elite universities thrive on the wages of Bain’s economic Darwinism.

If, however, these institutions relish the yields that Bain Capital generates by supporting start-ups and rescuing distressed companies, 80 percent of which have prospered, then this money is honest — and Team Obama isn’t.

OBAMA'S NEW CAMPAIGN MOTTO

Over the long weekend Democrats did some flip-flopping and danced around the “are you better off” question. Among them, Joe Biden, who Monday said you’re darn right we’re better off than we were four years ago. Joe didn’t want to take time to offer the audience any examples of why we’re so much better off than we were four years ago because he said it was too hot. That Biden… always concerned with everyone’s comfort.

So Here's the Motto for an Obama Future:  “If it weren’t so hot...”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail how four straight years of 8+% unemployment proves that my economic theories have succeeded.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail why plunging the nation $16 trillion into debt is wise fiscal policy.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about how you didn’t build that.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about how aborting babies in the ninth month of pregnancy is a popular mainstream position.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail why I support the Islamic extremists who have taken over Egypt.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about how selling guns to Mexican drug cartels is a good way to safeguard America.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail how I personally helped cause the housing crisis.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail how I promised high energy prices, then got what I wanted, then pretended it was bad news.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail why I recycle the exact same speeches and campaign promises I gave back in 2008, as if I had achieved nothing.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail as to why the entire Senate, including all Democrats, voted down my proposed budgets 99-0.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about why I can’t run on my record.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail what I really mean when I say the Constitution is a ‘living document.’”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail, but since the media covers for me every time, I don’t really ever need to go into detail anyway.”

• (To be used in Biden speeches) “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about how they’re gonna put y’all back in chains.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about what ‘more flexibility after the elections’ means when translated into Russian.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about how Obamacare is a tax but it’s not a tax but now it’s a tax again.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about what’s in my college records.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail as to how everything my opponents say, do or think is racist.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about why you personally must pay for other people’s condoms.”

• “If it weren’t so hot, I’d go into detail about all 57 states.”
