OBAMA ENVOY CAUGHT LYING: After First Denying he said things Sympathetic to Convicted Terrorist, Recording makes Rashad Hussain Change Course
This story first broke after Barack Obama announced via video conference that a man named Rashad Hussain would serve as his Islamic envoy to the Organization on Islamic Conference (OIC), a group made up of 57 Islamic states.
The controversy involved sympathetic statements attributed to Hussain about convicted terrorist Sami al-Arian in 2004 at a Muslim Student's Association (MSA) event.
A publication called the Washington Report on Middle Eastern Affairs (WRMEA) mysteriously removed Hussain's quotes from its story some time after 2007. WRMEA editor Delinda Hanley told Fox News that the quotes were removed in February, 2009, one month after Hussain landed a job in the U.S. Department of Justice.
Former Muslim terrorist Walid Shoebat, along with his foundation's executive director, Keith Davies can provide keen insight into groups like the MSA and why the fact that Hussain even appeared at that event should be cause for serious concern.
Nonetheless, the actions of the White House, Rashad Hussain, and the WRMEA editor could arguably rise to the level of conspiracy thanks to a recording of the 2004 event obtained by POLITICO (link to story below). As a direct result of that recording, Hussain has admitted that he did in fact make the comments.
Earlier, Hanley said she had the quotes removed because she was told by someone, whose name she couldn't remember that they were not said by Hussain but instead by al-Arian's daughter, Laila. Questions loomed about why the quotes were removed entirely and not re-attributed to al-Arian.

ABOUT WALID SHOEBAT…
Born in Bethlehem, Walid's grandfather was the Muslim Mukhtar (chieftain) of Beit Sahour-Bethlehem (The Shepherd's Fields) and a friend of Haj-Ameen Al-Husseni, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and notorious friend of Adolf Hitler.
As a young man, he became a member of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and participated in acts of terror and violence against Israel, and was later imprisoned in the Russian Compound, Jerusalem's central prison for incitement and violence against Israel.

After his release, he continued his life of violence and rioting in Bethlehem and the Temple Mount. After entering the U.S, he worked as a counselor for the Arab Student Organization at Loop College in Chicago and continued his anti-Israel activities.
In 1993, Walid studied the Bible to challenge to convert his wife to Islam. Six months later, after intense study, he realized that everything he had been taught about Jews was a lie. Convinced he was on the side of evil, he became an advocate for his former enemy.
Driven by a deep passion to heal his own soul, and to bring the truth about the Jews, Israel and the threat of fundamentalist Islam to the world, Walid shed his former life and his work as a software engineer and set out to tirelessly bring the cause against the evil of Islamic Fundamentalist to tens of millions of people throughout the world: churches, synagogues, civic groups, government leaders and media.
Walid is the author of several bestselling books including “Why I Left Jihad,” “Why We Want To Kill You” and “God’s War on Terror.” Walid is an American citizen and lives in the USA with his wife and children, under this assumed name. Walid has spoken all over America and the world including Chile, Mexico, Canada, UK, and South Africa. He has appeared on national television also all over the world including CNN, CNN International, FOX News, ITN, RTE, NBC, CBS, The 700, ABC and ABC Australia. He has also been featured on BBC radio 4, 5 and the largest radio audience on the BBC World Service reaching 180 million people.
Walid has the unique insight so as people can now fully understand the issue of terrorism from the perspective of someone who was once a terrorist. Walid Shoebat has given lectures at Harvard Law School and Columbia University, and has also spoken at Oxford University UK, National Constitution Center, Capitol Hill, UCLA, USC, University of Georgia, Washington University, Penn State, and San Diego State University.
ABOUT KEITH DAVIES…

During his lectures he uncovers much of the sectarian teaching used to recruit an ongoing stream of terrorists. Keith has worked for six years promoting Mr. Shoebat and through his efforts promoting Walid, Kamal and other FFMU speakers, these vital messages have reached tens of millions of people based on standardized media audience ranking.
