Once again, Keith Ellison is supporting radical Islamists…
Despite ardent criticism from Arizona’s congressional delegation including Senator Jon Kyl and two state representatives Trent Franks and John Shadegg who wrote a letter urging Ellison to shun CAIR, the Muslim group who has been labeled by the FBI as a front group for the terror group Hamas during the trial and conviction of 5 former members of the Holy Foundation, and who were found guilty of funneling millions of dollars to Hamas, Ellison proceeded anyway to visit and speak with the group at an Arizona fundraiser.
“We are deeply concerned that any official support of this organization would undermine the legitimate concerns of federal investigators about CAIR’s relationship to foreign terrorist organizations,” the letter said.
Ellison didn’t care. I’m sure he thinks it’s just an “attack” on Islam, or something…
But Ellison, a Muslim convert, came anyway and was applauded by about 300 people who attended a dinner at the Hilton Phoenix East/ Mesa. Ellison spoke about the fresh start in relations with Islamic countries under President Barack Obama’s administration.
“I would never associate myself with anyone even soft on terrorism,” he said before the speech. “We all want to fight terror. We all want to live in a safe community.”
