Who’s behind “Islam on Capitol Hill?”

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 21, 2009 02:49 PM

This Friday, Sept. 25, the organizers of “Islam on Capitol Hill” hope to bring thousands of Muslims to Washington, D.C. The program for the “Day of Islamic Unity?”

*The Athan will be chanted on Capitol Hill, echoing off of the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument and other great edifices that surround Capitol Hill

*Thousands of Muslims from all races, creeds, colors and ethnicities will gather for the sole purpose of prayer

*Bonds of friendship will be formed between those in attendance, both Muslims and Non-Muslims

*Muslim youth will experience tours of the Library of Congress and the Supreme Court.

*The peace, beauty and solidarity of Islam will shine through America’s capitol.

Who’s behind the event?

Andrew Walden at FrontPageMag.com reports:

Attorney and “main organizer” of “Islam on Capitol Hill”, Hassen Ibn Abdellah is President of the Elizabeth, New Jersey Dar ul-Islam, Inc. Abdellah was, described October 25, 1993 by the New York Times, as the “most aggressively combative of the lawyers” representing the terrorists who staged the 1993 World Trade Center attacks. His client, the Egyptian-born Mahmud Abouhalima, was convicted of helping to manufacture and transport the bomb detonated in the 1993 attack and is now incarcerated in the Federal “Supermax” prison at Florence, Colorado.

In 2004 Abdellah represented Numan Maflahi, a New Jersey Muslim tied to al-Qaeda fundraising. The New York Times July 10, 2004 reported:

Prosecutors said Mr. Maflahi, a gas station owner who lives in Little Ferry, N.J., had been the driver and personal assistant for Sheik Abdullah Satar, a former member of parliament in Yemen. They have described Sheik Satar as a fund-raiser with ties to Al Qaeda.

Yesterday, Mr. Maflahi’s lawyer, Hassen Ibn Abdellah, told Judge Nina Gershon of Federal District Court in Brooklyn that her sentencing decision was a test of whether “this country could be fair to Arab-Americans.”

Five years later, why does the “aggressively combative” Abdellah think his “Time Has Come”? The August 31 Newark Star-Ledger explains: “It was President Obama’s words at his inauguration in January, and then his speech in Egypt in June, that led Abdellah and an area imam, Abdul Malik, to begin discussing the idea….”

    You mean EXCEPT for the statement he released on National Day of Prayer, right?

    And in any case, to compare acknowledging an actual religious holiday like Ramadan to a silly political contrivance like “National Day of Prayer” is absurd. Get back to me if Obama fails to make a statement for Christmas.

    For OpEdNews: Ed Menken – Writer

    Anyone watching the mobs acting out at the various town hall meetings around the country during August, trying their best to drown out the elected officials who were attempting to engage their constituents in rational dialogue about health care reform, were actually witnessing members of far-right groups and extremist organizations with an undeniable hatred of government, of anyone who disagrees with them, and, of course, of President Obama. The same hate-filled fringe was also on display on 9-12 at the lunatics’ march on Washington, where Confererate flags, posters of Obama with a Hitler moustache, signs that included all sorts of vile verbiage against Obama, and shrieks of “We Want Our Country Back” echoed across Pennsylvania Avenue.

    In fact, these mobs are composed of overlapping hate-driven sub-groups including extreme racists, irrational xenophobes, ignorant secessionists, insane anti-abortionists, KKK loyalists without their dunce-headed robes, gun-crazy militants, and moronic malcontents who are inspired by hate-mongers like Douche Limpbra, Shame Hannity, Mickey Mouse Savage, Anorexic Annie Coulter, Moronic Malkin, and, of course, Brain-damaged Beck. They’re increasingly incited by the FOX Noise Liars Club and encouraged by the Greed Over People (GOP) party (since all of these miscreants like to call people they don’t like by names other than their own, I decided a while back that they deserve the same treatment).

    Be careful people. The freedom to practice one’s religion is a fundamental tenant of our republic. Shouldn’t we support peaceful organization and practice of all religions so long as it does not infringe on other’s rights? Is there tax payer money involved? Would you oppose a Christian rally for prayer on the capitol?

    I appreciate the fact that Islamic fascism is a real danger to America. If there are terrorists involved then expose and prosecute them (as the link between organizers and the Al Qaeda fundraiser starts to do.) But otherwise, where do we get off opposing someone’s practice of religion?

    Well, regardless of what the unhinged Charles Johnson thinks about “Dominionist Christians” wanting to impose strict Christian laws on this country and destroy our Constitution, it would seem that Christians and Jews, at least in the last few hundred years, have done a pretty good job of separating the religious from the secular. Certainly, some Judeo-Christian morality influences some of the laws, affecting things like prostitution, but even in that matter, there are small counties in Nevada that allow prostitution.

    But Islam is unique in modern religion in combining the trappings of a religion with aspects of a political system, including religious beliefs and laws binding on non-Muslims, especially laws regarding non-Muslim minorities, dhimmi, living in Muslim majority lands, and the powers of the caliph, or Muslim leader.

    Obama is not a Muslim anymore, and hasn’t been since age 7. The TUCC was for political purposes, although I’m sure he shared Rev. Wright’s views about white people in general.

    Obama is a Marxist. Religion is the opiate of the masses, remember? It explains the bitter clingers/Bible comment he made to his own kind in San Francisco.

    Now, Obama can give Islamic greetings, and recite Islamic prayer, in perfect Arabic. He may have some nostalgia for the closest thing to a real father he ever had, his Indonesian step father who cared enough to take him to the mosque every Friday for prayers. Soetero didn’t abandon Obama’s mother Stanley and the children, she abandoned him.

    But Obama is an atheist, and while he may have a soft spot for the Islamic faith, he is technically an apostate.

    If the Muslims are smart, they will realize Obama shares many of their goals, specifically the destruction of the United States as a representative democracy (republic) with a generally capitalist economic system.

    What I see in this article doesn’t threaten me as a Christian but it gives me pause to consider why Obama has said repeatedly that he is not Muslim, yet he goes out of his way to support and join in with muslim activities.

    No one would question him if he said a prayer at Ramadan, a prayer with Jews, a prayer with Christians, etc.

    The silence is deafening when he does not join in with prayer at a Christian event when he has proclaimed to be “christian”. It doesn’t pass the smell test.

    I guess the old adage that “actions speak louder than words” really has meaning. Our liar-in-chief is losing the small amount of credibility that he might have had with his actions.

    By The Confessions of Obama’s Mouth, he has convinced Muslims that he is a Muslim.

    He has never confessed the words of Christian salvation according to Romans 10:9-10.

    Saying, “I am a Christian” does not make you a Christian.
    Saying “Jesus Christ is Lord, and I believe in my heart that God raised him from the dead” makes you a Christian (as long as you really do believe that in your heart).

    Could Obama be an atheist who said “I am a Christian” to fool Biblically illiterate Christians?

    Could Obama be an atheist who said the following words in a perfect Arabic accent to fool Muslims?

    Allah is The Greatest. (”Allahu Akbar”)
    Allah is The Greatest.
    Allah is The Greatest.
    Allah is The Greatest.

    I understand your belief that Obama, as a Marxist, is an atheist. Over at HotAir, the atheist also believes that Obama is an atheist.

    Obama has some Christians believing that he is a Christian, Muslims believing that he is a Muslim, and atheists believing he is an atheist.

    What is relevant is:

    1) He is most certainly not what he has claimed to be (a Christian).

    2) Muslims know they have a friend in the White House.

    3) Marxists know they have a friend in the White House.

    Marxists and Muslims have already joined forces as part of the “57 states” of the OIC.

    I believe it was very intentional when Obama said “57 states”.

    Couldn’t possibly have meant 47 which, you know…with one to go and two he won’t be visiting adds up to…wait for it…FIFTY!!!. Nope. Could not have possibly been that. You really should be a researcher for the next Dan Brown novel.

    I think some are missing the point arguing about what religion President Obama recognizes or not.

    I believe this is key:

    Attorney and “main organizer” of “Islam on Capitol Hill”, Hassen Ibn Abdellah is President of the Elizabeth, New Jersey Dar ul-Islam, Inc. Abdellah was, described October 25, 1993 by the New York Times, as the “most aggressively combative of the lawyers” representing the terrorists who staged the 1993 World Trade Center attacks.

    If the NYTimes is calling Hassen Ibn Abdellah the “most aggressively combative”, he must truly be rather awful in person.

    Besides, isn’t having the lawyer that represented the terrorists from the first WTC attacks hosting a religious gathering in D.C. rather bizarre? Is this really the type of character that American Muslims want representing their faith in the capital?

    His exact words were:

    …uh, because, you know, uh-uh, it is just wonderful to be back in Oregon, and over the last 15 months we’ve travelled, uh, to every corner of the United States. Uh, I’ve now been in fifty – … seven states, I think one left to go. Uh, one left to go. Uh, Alaska and Hawaii I was not allowed to go to, even though I really wanted to visit, but my staff would not, uh, justify it.

    I wrote a post on this:
    Who Really Runs Obama’s Campaign, and What is Their Agenda?

    Now, to your questions, I belive that the “one left to go” is the continental U.S.A., but the Marxists believe that Alaska and Hawaii were the result of “Imperialism” and don’t really belong to the U.S.A.

    You can’t take the 6th Amendment right to counsel seriously and then be angry at the attorneys that represent those that are exercising that right. Even if that means they are aggressively doing so. It is every attorney’s obligation to defend their client to the best of their ability.

    Do you know of any actual wrongdoing on the part of Hassen Ibn Abdellah in his defense of the 1993 WTC bombers?

    Is this better than watching you and WE82 go at each other once again? You betcha. ;)

    For starters, I never said I was angry at him. However, I would want to know more about his background and how he came to be their lawyer. Defense of the 6th amendment is one thing, sure. Believing that there are no attorneys anywhere in the U.S. that would like to see the U.S. under Sharia law is another. I don’t know where this guy falls. Likely in between, but I suspect he leans more to the latter than the former. I want to know more about him.

    My previous point was not that the terrorists should not have had representation. My point, and I believe you knew it when you read it, was that if the NYTimes described him as aggressive, most conservatives might read that with an extra dose of “must be really bad”.

    I want to know more about the guy that wants the Muslim call to prayer to reverberate against the memorials.

    It seems to me that you took this more as an anti-lawyer slam when it was not intended as such. I can have doubts about the individual that have nothing to do with his profession.

    As it stands, I have admitted that I need to know more. There’s nothing “essential” about it, so I’m uncertain why you’re playing gotcha here.

    Just because Lynne Stewart was convicted of facilitating communication between the imprisoned Sheikh and members of the terrorist organization Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya in Egypt doesn’t mean Hassen Ibn Abdellah did anything illegal when he defended his many terrorist clients!

    Assume what? His pure intentions? For purposes of our argument here, they are irrelevant. He provided the bombers with constitutionally mandated counsel in a criminal trial. And he is required to do so to the best of his abilities.
