    Tax Dollars for Muslims
    by Connie Hair
    09/02/2010

    The Obama Administration reportedly held a special workshop this week to help leaders of controversial Muslim groups acquire “direct access” to taxpayer funding for their activities.

    The event’s main organizer, the Coordinating Council of Muslim Organizations (CCMO) has long-established ties to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood, which fostered many Islamist terror groups. Some of CCMO’s member groups were unindicted co-conspirators in the successfully prosecuted terrorist funding trial against the Holy Land Foundation (HLF). Event organizers said they would dedicate themselves to “cutting through red tape” to provide “direct access” to U.S. taxpayer funding for these terrorist funding-related groups.

    An email announcement was sent out August 27 by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), a group long associated with Muslim Brotherhood and an unindicted co-conspirator in the HLF trial. (The ISNA email is available here from the Big Peace website.)

    Wonderful, he won't admit he's a Christian, but he sure does rub elbows with his good ole Muslim buddies.

    Okay, someone help me out - is this supposed to be under the auspices of the "faith-based" funding? Or is this additional taxpayer funding that's supposed to be used to pay for the government?

    Will equal funding be provided for other religions? Or are we re-identifying islam as a "political system" so that there's no question about separation of church and state?
