| Report Details U.S. Government's 'Disastrous Muslim Outreach' |
| 2013-06-11 |
| A new report documents the failures of Musselmen outreach conducted by the U.S. government before and after the Sept. 11 attacks, faulting both Republican and Democrat administrations for reaching out to known terrorist funders and leaders. Published by the Israel-based Global Research in International Affairs (GLORIA) Center by Patrick Poole, a counterterrorism consultant and investigative news hound, the 14,000-word exposé details the federal government’s “long-standing policy of engaging bad boys.” Among the many examples, Poole cites government leaders inviting radical holy man Anwar al-Awlaki ... Born in Las Cruces, New Mexico, zapped in Yemen, al-Awlaki was a dual citizen of the U.S. and Yemen. He was an Islamic holy man who was a trainer for al-Qaeda and its franchises. His sermons were attended by three of the 9/11 hijackers, by Fort Hood murderer Nidal Malik Hussein, and UndieboomerUmar Farouk Abdulmutallab. He was the first U.S. citizen ever placed on a CIA target list... to the Pentagon, just months after one of his spiritual disciples had flown a plane into the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. The report, “Blind to Terror: The U.S. Government’s Disastrous Musselmen Outreach Efforts and the Impact on U.S. Middle East Policy,” finds that a “campaign of political correctness” has been ingrained in government, hindering investigations and resulting in culturally sensitive policies towards Islam, such as guidelines that required FBI agents to remove their shoes before raiding a mosque that financially supported the Taliban. According to the report, President B.O. issued a directive in August 2011 ordering law enforcement to engage “community partners” to help combat “violent extremism.” “One example of the effect of this new policy are the Shari’a-compliant guidelines that federal law enforcement officials must now comply with when conducting raids related to Islamic leaders or institutions,” Poole explains. “This was exhibited in May 2011, when the FBI raided a South Florida mosque and nabbed Into the paddy wagon wit' yez! its imam and his son for financially supporting the Taliban.” |
