Another Terrorist Supporter For B. Hussein Obama
Two years ago, Hatem El-Hady was the chairman of the Toledo, Ohio-based Islamic charity, Kindhearts, which was closed by the US government in February 2006 for terrorist fundraising and all its assets frozen. Today, El-Hady has redirected his fundraising efforts for his newest cause - Barack Obama for President.
El-Hady has his own dedicated page on Barack Obama's official website, chronicling his fundraising on behalf of the Democratic Party presidential candidate (his Obama profile established on February 19, 2008 - two years to the day after Kindhearts was raided by the feds). Not only that, but he has none other than Barack Obama's wife, Michelle Obama, listed as one of his friends, one of her 224 listed friends.
But his leadership of Kindhearts is not the only thing that has brought him scrutiny by federal law enforcement officials. Last summer, El-Hady was questioned by the FBI concerning his knowledge of possible conspirators in a UK-based terror plot.
Hatem El-Hady's interest in "change" is understandable. Following the closure of Kindhearts, he said in response to the government's closure of his organization:
"It's dirty politics," said Dr. Hatem Elhady, chairman of the board of KindHearts, which raised $5.1 million in 2004. "They do not like the way things are going in Palestine. They do not like the election results. But that is not our problem. Our problem is providing aid to people in desperate need of help."
The Department of Justice had a very different version of events. According to the DOJ, Kindhearts assumed the role of lead terrorist fundraising in the US after the government had closed other such Islamic "charities".
Not only was Kindhearts engaged in providing funds for HAMAS in Lebanon and the West Bank, it had hired as a fundraising specialist the man identified as the designated HAMAS bag man in the US, Mohammed El-Mezain.
* KindHearts’ Director of Domestic Programs, Khalifah Ramadan. Ramadan was a training and evaluation consultant for the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), two large Muslim organizations based in the United States that have links to overseas terror groups.
* KindHearts’ Representaive, Omar Shahin. Shahin was an Imam for the Islamic Center of Tucson (ICT), the former home of numerous terror operatives, including Wael Jelaidan, who later helped found Al-Qaeda.
* KindHearts’ Representative, Wagdy Ghuneim. Ghuneim, an Egyptian cleric, has been featured in KindHearts fundraising dinners for 2002, 2003 and 2004. During a rally at Brooklyn College, in May of 1998, Ghuneim attempted to persuade the crowd to support violent jihad and labeled Jews as “descendants of the apes.”
* KindHearts’ Representative, Hatem Bazian. Bazian is an Islamic Studies instructor and a member of the faculty of Near Eastern Studies at UC Berkley. In April of 2004, during a San Francisco anti-war rally, Bazian, a native Palestinian, called for an “intifada” against the United States. This was just two months prior to Bazian being featured in a KindHearts Fundraising Dinner, entitled ‘Palestinians in agony!’
* KindHearts’ Manager in Lebanon, Haytham Maghawri (a.k.a. Haytham Fawri). Maghawri, the past Social Services Director for HLF, according to the Treasury Department, “collected [KindHearts] funds and sent them to Hamas and other Salafi groups.” [One of the recipients of KindHearts funding was Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) Usama Hamdan, a leader of Hamas in Lebanon.
And two months before Kindhearts closure by the US government, Beila Rabinowitz had revealed that the South Asia Division Coordinator for Kindhearts, Zulfiqar Ali Shah, had known ties to al-Qaeda, even conducting a 10-day tour with officials for the Tablighi Jamaat organization, which the New York Times had described as "a springboard for militancy" and a "recruitment" center for Al-Qaeda.
Barack Obama has promised change. And as indicated by the public support that his candidacy has received by accused terrorist fundraiser Hatem El-Hady, Obama's version of change that terrorists and their US supporters can believe in.
Wild Thiing's comment........
I guess if we go by how many already support Obama there will be more before this is over. What a nightmare Obama and his wife are and will be if elected.

I guess they don't realize, the more they come out with these, the more it hurts Obamanation. Thank you terrorist groups--you're pushing Hitlery down our throats.

Obama has the muslim and Black vote 100%. He has the support of every loony group and individual that dislikes traditional American values. It is no surprise that any group with ties to anti Western or anti Jewish terrorists will be backing Obama. This goes back to his childhood days.
If some of Obama's blind cult followers will just open their eyes and be rational for a few minutes, maybe they will realize this guy is as anti American freedom as any candidate we have ever had.

The scariest part to me is that many, if not all, Obama supporters hate American values and the country itself. If elected, this man-thing will hand over this nation to our enemies -- perhaps slowly, but the damage is inevitable. Obama's followers want change because they have blindly accepted every word that has dripped from this idiot's lips. He promised a new day for the US -- The dawn of that day would be terrible indeed.

This Hatem El-Hady story is just the tip of the iceberg of terrorists that would be part of an Obama administration. Yes, I guess that qualifies as fulfilling his promise of change.

Lynn, haha yes that's true. It is all ammo against him but he sure doesn't see it that way.
Posted by: Wild Thing at April 22, 2008 04:59 PM
Tom he sure is, he is the terrorist's dream candidate.
Posted by: Wild Thing at April 22, 2008 05:10 PM
PeteSuj, your so right, my guess is that is what he had in mind with his word "change". I am very worried he will win.
Posted by: Wild Thing at April 22, 2008 05:13 PM
Les, that is what I was thinking too. His meaning of "change" probably involves the likes of these people having a tremendous pull in our governemnt and jobs too.

well today is the Pa primary and I saw the first Obama sign, it is the most dreadful site. The light blue half-circle on top and the red and white stripes on the bottom.
The light blue representing the UN and the red and white of what will be left of the US when this ninkompoop is done.
