Video: George W. Bush Stood with CAIR after September 11th

In light of what we now know about the nefarious intentions of groups like the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), this is an extremely disturbing video of George W. Bush in the days after 9/11 speaking at a Saudi mosque in Washington. Standing directly behind him is CAIR Executive Director, Nihad Awad (you can see him at the end as Bush moves away). The days after 9/11 were absolutely critical when it came to setting the direction for this country against our Islamic enemies and this speech may have been the catalyst for setting us in the direction we're now on.

That Bush shouldn't have known about CAIR requires a suspension of belief because six days before 9/11, on September 5th, Federal Authorities raided an office belonging to the Holy Land Foundation and found evidence that implicated CAIR. How did the message that CAIR had these ties with Hamas not reach the president? HLF had been under investigation for five years at the time.

Suspicious of its terrorist ties, U.S. federal authorities began monitoring the Holy Land Foundation in 1996. On September 5, 2001, federal anti-terrorism agents raided InfoCom Corporation, the company that ran the HLF website. According to defectors from the conspiracy, the HLF web server was used also by the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), the Islamic Society of North America, the Muslim Students’ Association of the U.S. and Canada, the Islamic Circle of North America, the Islamic Association for Palestine, and American Muslims for Jerusalem. As Islam scholar Stephen Schwartz writes, “All these organizations drew from the common financial and technical pool at HLF. All shared a single administrative and technical contact for the maintenance of the web server. They had been erected as political shells around the Hamas hydra-head represented by HLF.” (Support for Hamas had become illegal in 1995 as the result of an executive order by President Bill Clinton and subsequent congressional action.)

In fact, a man named Suhail Khan may have had a hand in this speech taking place where and when it did. According to a report by Frank Gaffney, Khan is a Muslim who has infiltrated the conservative movement with the help of Grover Norquist. Moreover, Khan is also on the Board of the American Conservative Union (ACU), which runs CPAC. Khan worked in the Bush administration's Department of Transportation.

HERE is Gaffney's report on Khan.

Former ACORN Leader to Head Obama's Reelection Campaign

The man who holds the equivalent of the job Karl Rove held in the Bush administration is apparently leaving that gig to head up Organizing For America (OFA) so he can work on Obama's reelection campaign. Patrick Gaspard is apparently a seasoned Alinsky-ite as well. The gall here is palpable though. As Republicans in the House consider mixed seating at Tuesday's State of the Union speech in order to demonstrate civility, Obama taps a guy who used to lead an organization that's already proven to be thoroughly corrupt, to coordinate his reelection efforts.

Via Matthew Vadum at the Daily Caller:

Gaspard comes from the same world of radical left-wing community organizing that shaped Barack Obama. Gaspard is well schooled in the brutal, street-smart organizing tactics taught by the late Saul Alinsky, author of Rules for Radicals. He’s the hatchet man Obama sent to New York over a year ago to strong-arm then-Gov. David Paterson into dropping his reelection campaign. As executive director running the DNC’s day-to-day operations Gaspard will oversee Organizing for America, a project of the DNC supposedly modeled on Alinskyite organizing principles. (Former Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine will remain as general chairman of the DNC.)

Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo to Haitian parents, very little is known about this Rasputin-like power behind the throne. Gaspard shuns publicity and is extremely reluctant to speak to the media on the record. Look him up on Nexis and you will find virtually nothing about this otherwise influential counselor to the leader of the free world.

But his colleagues hold him in high esteem. “Patrick is the best political mind of his generation in New York and maybe the nation,” according to Kevin Sheekey, a lieutenant of New York mayor Michael Bloomberg. “I wouldn’t dispute that,” added David Axelrod, a senior advisor in the Obama White House.

Gaspard came to the White House from ACORN’s favorite labor organization, Service Employees International Union. (SEIU Locals 100 and 880 were until recently official affiliates of ACORN.) He had been executive vice president for political and legislative affairs for SEIU Local 1199 United Healthcare Workers East, which claims to be the largest union local on the planet “representing more than 300,000 members and retirees in New York, Maryland, the District of Columbia and Massachusetts.”

Gaspard was previously revealed to be political director for ACORN’s New York branch. Although the source of this information, ACORN founder Wade Rathke, has since feigned senility and claimed he was mistaken, other evidence points to Gaspard’s involvement with the nation’s most notorious activist group.

Epoch Times: Anti-American, Pro-Chinese Song Performed at White House State Dinner

If this is true, it is beyond disgraceful, and even further confirms Obama's contempt for the country he was elected to lead. At the recent White House state dinner for Hu Jintao, a Chinese pianist named Lang Lang performed a song from a Chinese propaganda film about a victory against 'American jackals.' This tune has apparently been a longtime favorite of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and was intended to humiliate the United States.

Via Epoch Times:

Lang Lang the pianist says he chose it. Chairman Hu Jintao recognized it as soon as he heard it. Patriotic Chinese Internet users were delighted as soon as they saw the videos online. Early morning TV viewers in China knew it would be played an hour or two beforehand. At the White House State dinner on Jan. 19, about six minutes into his set, Lang Lang began tapping out a famous anti-American propaganda melody from the Korean War: the theme song to the movie “Battle on Shangganling Mountain.”

The film depicts a group of “People’s Volunteer Army” soldiers who are first hemmed in at Shanganling (or Triangle Hill) and then, when reinforcements arrive, take up their rifles and counterattack the U.S. military “jackals.”

The movie and the tune are widely known among Chinese, and the song has been a leading piece of anti-American propaganda by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for decades. CCP propaganda has always referred to the Korean War as the “movement to resist America and help [North] Korea.” The message of the propaganda is that the United States is an enemy—in fighting in the Korean War the United States’ real goal was said to be to invade and conquer China. The victory at Triangle Hill was promoted as a victory over imperialists.

Speaking of Americans as 'imperialists,' see how many friends, associates, and people from Obama's past who loathe this country based on the notion that it is 'imperialist.'

If you can stomach it, here is a clip from the movie called "Battle of Triangle Hill." Then ask yourself how many people are more concerned about the Super Bowl than about this.
