The former director of Muslim outreach for
President Obama’s 2008 campaign now is representing a charity raising
money in the U.S. to fund the jihadist-tied Syrian opposition.
Mazen Asbahi, a Chicago lawyer, resigned
from Obama’s first presidential campaign after the Wall Street Journal
reported that he sat on the board of an Islamic investment group called
the Allied Assets Advisors Fund. Also on the board was Jamal Said, an
unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation, which raised
millions of dollars for the Hamas terrorist organization.
The Allied Assets Advisors Fund was itself
a subsidiary of the North American Islamic Trust which is directed by
the Islamic Society of North America, or ISNA.
The ISNA was established in 1981 by
activists from the Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated Muslim Students
Association. The ISNA was also named as an unindicted co-conspirator in
the Holy Land terrorism financing case.
The ISNA was the subject of a terrorism
investigation in December 2003 by the Senate Finance Committee, which
looked into possible links between nongovernmental organizations and
terrorist financing networks.
The official court documents in the Holy
Land case named the ISNA among “entities who are and/or were members of
the US Muslim Brotherhood.”
Now Asbahi is back in the spotlight as the
lawyer for the Syrian Support Group, which is raising money to fund the
rebels attacking Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime.
Earlier this year, Asbahi applied to the U.S. government for a license to fund the Free Syrian Army.
There have been scores of reports
worldwide that al-Qaida and other jihad groups are among the ranks of
the Free Syrian Army. It is well established that jihadists dominate the
Syrian opposition and various Free Syrian Army branches.
Asbahi’s Syrian Support Group boasted on
its website it received “a license from the U.S. Department of Treasury
Office of Foreign Asset Control that permits the organization to raise
funds and provide certain services to the Free Syrian Army.”
The group says it is raising funds in the
U.S. to provide “certain logistical, communications and other services
to the [Free Syrian Army].” It defines the Army as “a coalition of
affiliated armed rebel groups operating in Syria.”
Brian
Sayers, director of government relations for the Syrian Support Group,
admitted in an NPR interview the money raised by his organization will
go to weapons purchases as well.
“Yes,”
he said when asked about weapons. “Weapons are going to be a part of
the process, because if they’re going to set up safe zones for the
Syrian citizens … those safe zones have to be defended.”
Obama’s boy – who is arming Muslim children with guns – also recently created the ‘National Muslim Democratic Council’.Obama and Asbahi’s rebels at work:
