The Acronym of Infamy, The ACLU

Does the name Abdurahman Alamoudi ring a bell ? He was a friend and sometime consultant on Islamic affairs to Hillary Rodham Clinton. Before he began to work for the Clinton State Department in 1997 as a "goodwill ambassador" to Muslim countries, he told the Islamic Association of Palestine in Chicago on December 29, 1996:
"I think if we are outside this country, we can say oh, Allah, destroy America, but once we are here, our mission in this country is to change it. There is no way for Muslims to be violent in America, no way. We have other means to do it. You can be violent anywhere else but in America."
Alamoudi, who was the executive director of the American Muslim Council, had repeated high-level contacts with the Clinton White House in late 1995 and early 1996. On November 9, 1995 he met with President Clinton and Vice President Gore at a meeting with 23 Muslim leaders at the White House. On February 8, 1996, Mrs. Clinton wrote a newspaper column based on talking points provided by Alamoudi. And on February 20, 1996, Mrs. Clinton had Alamoudi's group draw up the Muslim guest list for a White House reception marking the end of the Muslim holy period of Ramadan, the first time such an event had ever been held at the White House.
Alamoudi helped develop "Religious Expression in Public School" with the ACLU which holds the copyright. Launched by Clinton in 1995, these "Presidential Guidelines" greatly impact public schools today. Nadine Strossen, President of the ACLU, refers to these guidelines as the authority to support the ACLU’s lawsuits restricting Christmas celebrations and removing Nativity scenes from public schools.
School districts are pressured to utilize Clinton’s guidelines which he sold to America as "issued by 35 religious groups," failing to disclose they include many civil rights groups and are all described by the ACLU as committed to separation of church and state.

Additionally, Clinton went beyond the ACLU copyright guidelines and added: "Students generally do not have a Federal right to be excused from lessons that may be inconsistent with their religious beliefs or practices."
This, of course, impinges on our freedom of religion.

At the end of his term, Clinton addressed Muslim leaders with a Ramadan message containing quotes from our children's textbooks today. "As America's six-million-member Muslim community grows in numbers and prominence, Americans of every religious tradition are learning more about the origins and meaning of Islam. That on "the Night of Power," the Angel Gabriel appeared to the Prophet Muhammad and revealed to him the first verses of the Koran. That the Koran declares that Ramadan was the month Allah's words were sent down, and so should be spent in fasting." -Bill Clinton
Today, Christmas and Nativity scenes are outlawed while Clinton's nominee, U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton, approved "Islam: A Simulation" where children learn to "become Muslim, recite the Quran, fast for Ramadan and pray to Allah including this prayer: "In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of Creation, The Compassionate, the Merciful, King of Judgment-day! You alone we worship, and to You alone we pray for help, Guide us to the straight path."
Remember this Clinton appointed judge also ruled that a woman's right to have an abortion is paramount, and that it is 'irrelevant' whether the unborn child suffers pain in the process of partial birth abortion. The double-standard is appalling, but one has only to look at our public school guidelines and who wrote them, the ACLU, to discover how our nation finds itself in the state it's in today.
Alamodi has been sentenced to 23 years in jail on charges related to his activities in the United States and abroad with nations and organizations that have ties to terrorism. He pleaded guilty to three federal offenses: one count of violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), which imposes terrorism-related sanctions prohibiting unlicensed travel to and commerce with Libya; one count of false statements made in his application for naturalization; and a tax offense involving a long-term scheme to conceal from the IRS his financial transactions with Libya and his foreign bank accounts and to omit material information from the tax returns filed by his charities.
But he can take satisfaction in the fact that a court in California has given the green light to schools following ACLU’s religion-in-the-classroom guidelines, which he helped to formulate. Hasn't the American Civil Liberties Union lectured us that religious instruction in school violates what it describes as “separation of church and state”? It must depend on which religion is involved.

It is hard to decide what individual item you may despise the most about the ACLU because their support of nefarious causes knows no bounds. I find their incredibly subversive networking through judges, legislators and an occasional president to be so repugnant and opposed to liberty that I perceive them as the biggest threat to the American way of life that the majority of us love.

If you feel the same way, make yourself heard today.
