Well, that’s certainly no surprise to me:
Ahmad Yousuf, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh’s political advisor, said that during the recent US presidential race a secret meeting between senior Islamist group figures and advisors to President-elect Barack Obama was held in Gaza.
“We were in contact with a number of Obama’s aides through the Internet, and later met [...]

You’ll remember the Holy Land Foundation case,which highlighted how money was collected here in America for ‘Islamic charities’ and actually used to fund jihad and terrorism with the full knowledge of the charity’s organizers.
The Holy Land Foundation was essentially a fund raising and money laundering outfit for the Salafist Muslim Brotherhood, the parent organization of [...]

I’ve been moving around the internet a bit looking at stories about the way in which Israel turned a brutal, mass murderer over in exchange for two bodies. What’s fascinating is that the stories keep calling it a “prisoner swap,” as if there’s parity in the exchange. Prisoner swap, after all, implies that Israel gave [...]

What do you think is worse for a Presidential candidate and elected member of the U.S. Senate
Having a Middle East advisor that holds secret meetings with the terrorist group Hamas (among others)
Having an adviser that puts his foot in his mouth by saying that another attack on America would be an advantage to the Republicans
Truth [...]

Hamas never enters into truces with an eye to peace. It enters into truces with an eye to getting its troops rested and rearmed before the next offensive. Israel, equipped with knowledge of both core Islamic doctrine (hudna) and Hamas’ own past behavior, nevertheless keeps giving its opponent a breather, rather than keeping [...]

Tom Friedman, man of the New York Times, writes to assure American Jews that Obama is no threat whatsoever to Israel’s security. His column is a nasty little piece of work, not for what it says, but for what it doesn’t say. It opens with a series of scare quotations purported from Barack Obama, all [...]

Victor Davis Hanson, on what you’re not allowed to say about Barack Obama:
3. Rev. Wright is like “an old uncle” and his church “not particularly controversial.” Those who insist otherwise are using “snippets” and “loops” out of context for cheap political advantage. But should the Rev. repeat his serial lunacies at the National Press Club [...]

I’m beginning to think that incrementalism is one of the most dangerous things out there, whether it’s the way Obama leaks out the truth about his big lies or the way in which the jihadists keep asking for little things from us — no pigs, no dogs, no occupied territories. As to that latter [...]

Charles Johnson, at LGF, working off the top of his head, put together a list of Obama’s troublesome associations:
* Rabidly anti-Israel Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi. The Obamas were regular dinner guests at Khalidi’s Hyde Park home for years.
* Terrorist sympathizer Ali Abunimah, who runs the viciously anti-Israel web site Electronic Intifada.
* Unrepentant Weather Underground [...]

The New York Times again gave a forum to Jimmy Carter. This time Carter defends his immoral, illegal decision to consort with terrorists, something that would be objectionable if the ordinary private citizen were to do it, but that rises to outrageous levels of indecency when a former President does the same thing.
Carter’s most recent [...]
