The terrorist who visited the White House

Last Friday, the FBI raided the homes of several Far Left 'activists' who have ties to Colombia's FARC terrorist organization and to radical Islamist groups. One of those whose home was raided, and who was arrested, was Hatem Abudayyeh, a man who received $457,000 in government money, and who has been a visitor to the Obama White House.

Hatem Abudayyeh is the executive director of the Arab American Action Network (AAAN). Hatem Abudayyeh has been with the Arab American Action Network (AAAN) since 1999, and was appointed Executive Director in 2003. The Arab American Action Network was founded by former PLO operative and close Obama family friend Rashid Khalidi. Obama was a director of the Woods Fund from 1994 through 2001, when the board approved a $40,000 grant to the Arab American Action Network.

In 2003 Barack Obama was an honored guest at a dinner sponsored by the AAAN for former PLO-operative Rashid Khalidi. During the dinner a video was taken that shows Barack Obama celebrating with members of this Palestinian group who are openly hostile towards Israel. Barack Obama even gave a toast to a Rashid Khalidi at this going away party. The LA Times will not release the video from this Jew-bashing dinner.

Not only was Hatem Abudayyeh’s radical organization given $40,000 by Barack Obama and the Woods Fund but his organization also collected nearly half a million in taxpayer money.

Let's go to the videotape.



Read the whole thing. He was also a visitor to the Obama White House.

Debbie Schlussel has much more on this radical here and here.
