Senator Obama has fired his Muslim Outreach Adviser Mazen Asbahi after press reports of ties to a radical Muslim Imam and the Muslim Brotherhood.
According to the Wall Street Journal,the eight-year-old connection between Mr. Asbahi and the Imam ,a Mr. Said, was raised last week by the Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report, which is published by a Washington think tank and chronicles the activities of the Muslim Brotherhood, a world-wide fundamentalist group based in Egypt. Other Web sites, some pro-Republican and others critical of fundamentalist Islam, have also reported on the background of Mr. Asbahi. He is a frequent speaker before several groups in the U.S. that scholars have associated with the Muslim Brotherhood. The motto of the organization is:
"Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qur'an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope." —Muslim Brotherhood
Let's hope that Obama investigates the background of his VP selection better then his Muslim Outreach Adviser.
It is getting very crowded under that bus!
