*for over a decade, along with other prominent civilian counter-terrorism experts around the country, to keep the public aware of the metastasis of Islamist encroachment right in our backyards. The link below from Front Page elaborates on the successful rise of another rising star who worked for CAIR and is now lecturing under a Homeland Security logo with Broward County officials as a supporting cast. This is our new America which Hope and Change has bequeathed, As for our citizenry my unofficial survey of young and old....they could care less. Few know what CAIR represents. The Presidential election has caught attention due to the media fireworks as if elections and riots abroad were just passive entities . Better to hobnob about baseball scores, celebrity divorces and rehab visits.*

April 29, 2016 *Joe Kaufman* <http://www.frontpagemag.com/author/joe-kaufman> *4* <http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/262685/placing-terror-pedestal-joe-kaufman#disqus_thread> *3937* [image: Description: http://www.frontpagemag.com/sites/default/files/styles/article_full/public/uploads/2016/04/er.jpg?itok=hqyQj600] Ghazala Salam has embedded her life in groups associated with terror. This year, she left her job with CAIR, an organization that has been linked to terrorist financing and terrorist leaders, for a position with Emerge USA, a radical Muslim outfit attempting to push its way into the political arena. Yet, even with this sinister background, Salam has managed to achieve numerous honors from South Florida government and government-related institutions. Has she pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes or are they intentionally ignoring facts. On April 12th, Ghazala Salam stood next to Broward County Commissioner Stacy Ritter and accepted a proclamation declaring that day ‘Equal Pay Day,’ “urging all employers in our community to recognize the full value of the skills and contributions of women in the labor force and recommit to making equal pay a reality.” Signing the proclamation was Broward County Mayor Marty Kiar. On March 25th, Salam received the honor of speaking at the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Citizenship Ceremony, where new US citizens are sworn in. Emblazoned on the podium where she spoke from was a prominent Department of Homeland Security logo. *Photos and information regarding both of these events* <http://s1227.photobucket.com/user/kaufmanforcongress/media/Emerge_USA/Proclamation_Citizenship_Ceremony_Ghazala_Salam.jpg.html> are found on the Facebook site of Emerge USA, an organization where Salam serves as its Florida State Director. Emerge USA, despite its patriotic sounding name, has an extremely radical agenda based on terrorism and bigotry shrouded in the guise of political advocacy. The main individual behind Emerge USA is Khurrum Wahid, a South Florida attorney who has built his name on representing high profile terrorists. They include members of al-Qaeda and financiers of the Taliban. According to the *Miami New Times,* Wahid himself was placed on a federal terrorist watch list in 2011. Emerge sponsors speeches made by Muslim extremists, such as Islamic lecturer Sayed Ammar Nakshawani. Nakshawani, who is a follower of former Iran supreme leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, has previously called for the destruction of Israel. He has given featured talks in at least two Emerge benefit dinners, one in 2014 and one in 2015. Emerge *sponsors events at terror-linked mosques* <http://s1227.photobucket.com/user/kaufmanforcongress/media/Emerge_USA/Al-Qassam_Darul_Uloom_Emerge_USA.jpg.html>. One is Tampa-based al-Qassam (a.k.a. Islamic Community of Tampa), which was founded by Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader and former Khurrum Wahid client Sami al-Arian. Another is the Pembroke Pines-based Darul Uloom, where “Dirty Bomber” Jose Padilla was a student; where now-deceased al-Qaeda commander Adnan el-Shukrijumah was a prayer leader; and whose imam, Maulana Shafayat Mohamed, has been thrown off a number of boards in Broward County for his actions against homosexuals. Salam *has become close with Darul Uloom and its imam* <http://s1227.photobucket.com/user/kaufmanforcongress/media/CAIR-Florida/Ghazala_Salam_Darul_Uloom_Maulana_Shafayat_Mohamed.jpg.html>. A video of Salam being interviewed by Shafayat Mohamed for Darul Uloom’s media arm, Al-Hikmat, was published on the mosque’s website last June. Salam has been honored repeatedly in Al-Hikmat newsletters, and she was the recipient of an award at the 2015 annual Al-Hikmat award ceremony in May 2015. A photograph of her with Shafayat Mohamed is found on the website of the American Muslim Democratic Caucus of Florida (AMDCFL), a group that Salam presides over. Earlier this year, prior to taking her job with Emerge, Salam held the position of Community and Government Relations Director for the Florida chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). She had been with CAIR in this position since February 2011. CAIR was established in June 1994 as part of a terrorist umbrella group headed by then-global head of Hamas, Mousa Abu Marzook. In 2007 and 2008, CAIR was named by the US Justice Department a co-conspirator for two federal trials dealing with the financing of millions of dollars to Hamas. Since its founding, a number of CAIR representatives have served jail time and/or have been deported from the United States for terrorist-related crimes. In November 2014, CAIR itself was designated a terrorist group by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) government. CAIR-Florida has fully reflected the extremism of its parent organization. Its Executive Director Hassan Shibly, who has previously denied that Hezbollah is a terrorist group, wrote in August 2014, “*Israel and its supporters are enemies of God...* <http://s1227.photobucket.com/user/kaufmanforcongress/media/Emerge_USA/Hassan_Shibly_Israel_Enemy.jpg.html>” In July 2014, CAIR-Florida co-sponsored a pro-Hamas rally in Downtown Miami, where rally goers *repeatedly shouted, “We are Hamas”* <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgHAtpDJ3yM> and “Let’s go Hamas.” Following the rally, the event organizer, Sofian Zakkout, wrote, “Thank God, every day we conquer the American Jews like our conquests over the Jews of Israel!” While working for Emerge, *Salam has held joint events with CAIR* <http://s1227.photobucket.com/user/kaufmanforcongress/media/Emerge_USA/Ghazala_Salam_Emerge_USA_CAIR_Nur-ul-Islam_Florida_Muslim_Capitol_Day_2.jpg.html>. She has also held events with Nur-ul-Islam Academy (NUIA) and ICNA Relief. Nur-ul-Islam Academy is the children’s school of the Cooper City-based Nur-ul-Islam Mosque. A former member of the mosque’s Islamic Affairs Council and ex-Vice President of NUIA, Raed Musa Awad, was the Florida representative for the Hamas charity, Holy Land Foundation (HLF). The website of NUIA previously contained links to violent, anti-Semitic and anti-Christian material, including having a link to islamway.com, a website that encouraged its viewers to donate money to Hamas. Emerge USA co-founder and trustee Saif Ishoof is a director of NUIA. ICNA Relief is a function of the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), the American affiliate of South Asian Islamist group Jamaat-e-Islami (JI). JI’s militant wing, Hizbul Mujahideen, owned the Pakistani compound where Osama bin Laden was killed. ICNA has been linked to terrorist financing and has used the web to promote different terrorist groups, including Hamas, al-Qaeda, Hezbollah and the Taliban. ICNA conducts annual functions along with the Muslim American Society (MAS), which like CAIR, is a UAE designated terrorist organization. None of this has stopped Salam from being granted a proclamation by a county mayor or from speaking at a US citizenship swearing-in ceremony. It also hasn’t stopped her from sitting on the board of the Broward County School Board’s Human Relations Committee or from serving as the Chairwoman of the Broward Commission on the Status of Women (CSW). And it hasn’t stopped her from being a director at the Broward League of Women Voters or from being the featured speaker at the League’s annual meeting, this month. But it has done one thing. It has exposed a dangerous flaw within the community, whereby someone associated with Islamist terror has been embraced and not shunned. Out of negligence or sheer ignorance, our community leaders have left us vulnerable to those who would wish us harm. __._,_.___ ------------------------------ Posted by: "Beowulf" <[email protected]> ------------------------------ Visit Your Group <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/grendelreport/info;_ylc=X3oDMTJma2UyZnA5BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzIwMTk0ODA2BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTMyMzY2NwRzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2Z2hwBHN0aW1lAzE0NjIwMzk5NjA-> [image: Yahoo!
