October 16, 2015 5:13 pm (Conservative Tribune) – President Barack Obama’s State Department has once again tweeted out links to discussions and writings by a controversial Muslim cleric who has advocated for the death of U.S. soldiers in the past. An official State Department Twitter account linked to efforts at combating radical Islamic extremism sent out a series of tweets on Wednesday promoting the work done by Sheikh Abdallah Bin Bayyah. Bin Bayyah was once the vice president of a group known as the International Union of Muslim Scholars, a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated organization whose founder “has called for the death of Jews and Americans and himself is banned from visiting the U.S.,” according to a 2013 report fromFox News. The cleric himself has quite a controversial history, but that hasn’t stopped the Obama administration from repeatedly embracing and promoting him as a “moderate” who can help in the fight against radical jihadism. In 2004, Bin Bayyah signed on to a fatwa endorsing violent attacks against U.S. forces in Iraq and issued another fatwa in 2009 decrying any form of normalization of relations between Arabs and Israel. In a 2010 interview with Al Jazeera, the cleric endorsed violence against Israel by Palestinians, and in 2011 condemned the United States and other nations for labeling the radical jihadist group Hamas as a terrorist organization. The Obama administration was criticized heavily in 2013 for holding a meeting at the White House with Bin Bayyah, and Obama himself was criticized for praising the cleric during a speech at the U.N. in 2014. Also in 2014, the State Department had shared links to Bin Bayyah’s work, much as it just did again this week, but then was compelled to delete the links and apologize for them. Thus far, the State Department has yet to respond to criticism and questions for once again promoting the writings and speeches of this controversial Muslim cleric. “This is yet another episode of the Obama administration’s bizarre fetish to hail any Islamic scholar or group who expresses even the slightest degree of variance from ISIS as moderate,” Patrick Poole, a terrorism analyst who has chronicled Bin Bayyah’s questionable history, told the Washington Free Beacon. “Ignore for just a minute that the State Department had to apologize for very good reason just last year for tweeting out a link to Bin Bayyah’s writings, and just take a look at his record,” Poole added. “This is how the administration believes it is going to defeat ISIS? And is there really no other Islamic scholar on the planet that the administration can promote apart from Abdullah Bin Bayyah? “It’s no wonder we’re losing the war on terror,” he concluded. Please share this on Facebook and Twitter to help spread the word that Obama’s administration is once again celebrating and promoting the works of a Muslim cleric that has called for the death of U.S. troops and supports terrorist groups. http://conservativetribune.com/state-muslim-killing-soldiers/ - See more at: http://www.teaparty.org/insane-look-obamas-state-dept-just-muslim-advocates-killing-u-s-soldiers-125142/#sthash.TDsWtlJh.dpuf __._,_.___ ------------------------------ Posted by: "Beowulf" <[email protected]> ------------------------------ Visit Your Group <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/grendelreport/info;_ylc=X3oDMTJmYWZrMmdsBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzIwMTk0ODA2BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTMyMzY2NwRzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2Z2hwBHN0aW1lAzE0NDUxOTE4NDQ-> [image: Yahoo!
