Devout Muslims In Key Homeland Security Posts

Last Updated: Fri, 11/20/2009 - 4:45pm

Days after a devout Muslim terrorized a U.S. Army base in Texas several news reports remind that two key Homeland Security posts are occupied by equally devout Muslims, one of them a former Los Angeles deputy mayor who eliminated a crucial program that tracked terrorist activities in the city.

Earlier this year President Obama appointed Arif Alikhan to be the nation’s Assistant Secretary for Policy Development at the Department of Homeland Security and Kareem Shora to the agency’s influential advisory council, which provides recommendations and advice directly to the Secretary of Homeland Security.

Alikhan, who leads a Homeland Security team responsible for developing policy issues to secure the country against terrorism, has referred to the renowned terrorist organization Hezbollah as a “liberation movement” and was responsible for killing a Los Angeles Police project that monitored terrorist activities in the city’s notoriously radical mosques. The defunct Muslim terror tracking plan was designed to identify hotbeds of extremism in an area where several locals offered the September 11 hijackers support.

Shora was the head of a well-known Arab organization whose officials refer to anti-U.S. jihadists as heroes. As executive director of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC), Shora had close ties to radical Ivy League professor Rashid Khalidi, a Palestinian terror supporter who has reportedly worked on behalf of the extremist Palestine Liberation Organization.

An Israeli newspaper criticizes Obama for reaching out to Muslims by appointing them to key security posts amid charges he wrongly ignored internal Muslim terror. The passage undoubtedly refers to the Muslim, al Qaeda wannabe Army major (Nidal Malik Hasan) who went on a murderous rampage at Ft. Hood as he chanted "Allahu Akbar!" ("God is great!") in Arabic.

Days after the massacre, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano was most concerned about preventing a wave of anti-Muslim sentiment in the United States. She vowed that her agency is working hard with groups across the U.S. to deflect any retaliation against Muslims for one man’s fury.

Particularly aggravating for many Americans is the security process at the airports, where we are treated as a dangerous felons until proven innocent by the dim-witted TSA agents. Some of us are "randomly" chosen for detailed inspections. Usually the chosen people are older white females or disabled males, who have a history of violently overpowering aircrews. TSA, as a part of the DHS, is an "equal opportunity employer". This means that they generally do not hire white people, English speakers, or those who have an IQ higher than room temperature. Diversity is VERY important to the TSA, so you will frequently encounter scenes like the one shown below:

which could endanger the passengers on her flight.

 

While traveling through airports, you may have seen some fellow passengers wearing a somewhat geeky device like the one shown below hanging from their necks. It holds their driver's license and/or passport for identification, their boarding pass, etc. Maybe not a bad idea, since you have to keep producing all this crap to show to the gestapo TSA agents. But wait, there's more: sister could have saved herself the embarrassing frisking from the jihadi if she had worn one of these ID holders and tied one more item to the string.
