Obama’s Islamic Dinner

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Last Friday, President Obama hosted his fourth Iftar dinner since gaining the White House, breaking the Islamic fast for Ramadan in the company of dozens of prominent Muslims.  A number of them have ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. One of those was singled out for presidential praise: Huma Abedin, the State Department’s Deputy Chief of Staff.  Mr. Obama lauded Huma’s patriotism and thanked her for tireless service to the country. That statement is a deflection, like the larger effort of which it is a part.  The Obama administration is desperate to divert public scrutiny from the influence exercised in its policy-making circles by individuals – including, but not limited to, Huma Abedin – who have been linked to the Brotherhood.  Hard questions about this practice need to be answered, not deflected or suppressed.
