WHO IS GROVER NORQUIST?
PART 2

After the insiders have established the United Socialist States of America (in fact, if not in name), the next step is the Great Merger of all nations of the world into a dictatorial world government. … The Insiders’ code word for the world super state is “new world order,” a phrase often used by Richard Nixon. The Council on Foreign Relations states in its Study No. 7: “The U.S. must strive to: A. BUILD A NEW INTERNATIONAL ORDER. A world government has always been the object of the Communists." --Gary Allen (1936-86) American journalist

The New World Order will have to be built from the bottom up rather than from the top down...but in the end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece will accomplish much more than the old fashioned frontal assault." CFR member Richard Gardner, writing in the April 1974 issue of the CFR's journal, Foreign Affairs. Remember, Norquist is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, yet he claims he's a "conservative" by his membership in the so-called secretive "conservative Christian" Council for National Policy. --Kelleigh Nelson

Norquist and Islam

In 2004, at age 48, Grover married a Palestinian Muslim named Samah Alrayyes, a Kuwaiti Public Relations specialist who was formerly a director of the Islamic Free Market Institute and specialist at the Bureau of Legislative and Public Affairs at United States Agency for International Development (USAID). (USAID is the United States federal government agency primarily responsible for administering civilian foreign aid.) The couple have two children adopted from abroad. (The Islamic Free Market Institute was founded by Norquist and Khaled Saffuri.) Grover has said he's a "white bread Methodist," however, a devout Muslim like Samah supposedly would not marry a non-Muslim, and of late, Grover has refrained from answering the question of his religion.

Gary Johnson, Jr., wrote, Khaled Saffuri: Where is He Now in September of 2010. Here is a portion of that article:

Grover founded the Islamic Free Market Institute (referred to as Islamic Institute) with Khaled Saffuri in 1998. The Safa Trust donated at least $35,000, and the International Institute of Islamic Thought contributed $11,000. Both organizations were alleged to be part of the so-called SAAR Network of interrelated business and non-profit entities with ties to sources of terrorism financing, and were among the subjects of a March 20, 2002 raid conducted by the U.S. Custom Service under the auspices of Operation Green Quest.

Before linking up with Grover Norquist, Khaled Saffuri was involved in the American Muslim Council (AMC). Saffuri’s boss, Abdurahman Alamoudi, the Executive Director of the AMC, utilized his links with over 20 Muslim organizations in America to peddle influence in the Clinton White House.

The Operation Green Quest raids led to the convictions of two people, including Abdurahman Alamoudi, who worked for the SAAR Foundation. Alamoudi admitted that he plotted with Libya to assassinate the Saudi ruler and was sentenced to 23 years in jail. Alamoudi would provide Grover Norquist with $20,000 to help create the Islamic Free Market Institute. (And Alamoudi allegedly gave $50,000 to the lobbying group Janus-Merritt Strategies, which Norquist co-founded.) A further five years down the road, in 2003, Alamoudi would be captured with over a quarter million dollars in funds from Libya’s Qaddafi, earmarked to support jihad.

Alamoudi was among a group of Muslim Brotherhood operatives who were invited on May 1, 2000 to meet with Bush in the Texas governor’s mansion. Saffuri was designated the Bush campaign’s Muslim outreach coordinator and Norquist assisted another prominent Brother, Sami al-Arian, to obtain a commitment from candidate Bush that, if elected, he would prohibit the use of classified intelligence evidence in deportation proceedings.”

Three years later Sami al-Arian, the University of South Florida professor, would be brought up on charges of supporting Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

These connections alone should give pause to anyone truly believing Norquist is a conservative. Yet, he is still lauded for his anti-tax stances and getting various congress criminals to sign his petition of no new taxes. In reality, our taxes seem to rise every year, or perhaps even more often, and will take huge leaps in 2013 with Obamacare. The truth is, despite what these congress people sign, every time they have the opportunity, they vote for bills that increase our taxes and put more monies in the federal coffers. Nevertheless, Norquist claims his fame in the signatures he has garnered from these politicians stating they will not increase taxes.

President George W. Bush and Norquist

On September 26, 2001, President Bush gathered 15 prominent Muslim and Arab Americans at the White House. Bush proclaimed that "the teachings of Islam are teachings of peace and good." He also stated that Christians and Muslims "worship the same God." Norquist had arranged this meeting with these Islamic supremacists to get the President to show how Muslims rejected terrorism. Bush allowed this meeting because he trusted Norquist who had vouched for the Muslim leaders. Grover Norquist, is a member of the Board of Directors of the American Conservative Union, which hosts CPAC. The Conservative Political Action Committee was founded in 1973 and features establishment republican speakers such as Limbaugh, Reagan, Palin, etc. This would seem to be one of the top reasons Bush would trust Norquist's judgment.

Yet, Norquist had formed alliances with prominent Islamic radicals who have ties to both the Saudis and to Libya and to Palestine Islamic Jihad and who are now under indictment by U.S. authorities.

President's Bush's trust of Norquist was obviously terribly misplaced. Norquist introduced Dr. Yahya Basha, president of the American Muslim Council. AMC is an organization whose leaders have repeatedly called Hamas "freedom fighters." AMC is also a member of the American Muslim Political Coordination Council (AMPCC), along with the American Muslim Alliance (AMA), Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), and Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC). AMPCC's primary concern is to coordinate the member organizations on activism and lobbying, something Norquist has great skill at doing. Remember Grover was a proficient lobbyist with Jack Abramoff regarding the Indian tribes.

Muzammil Siddiqi, president of the Islamic Society of North America was also present. He had told a Washington crowd chanting pro-Hezbollah slogans that, "America has to learn if you remain on the side of injustice, the wrath of god (Allah) will come." Another invited Muslim, Salam Al-Marayati, executive director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, actually told a radio audience on the afternoon of September 11, 2001, that "we should put the state of Israel on the suspect list."

Nihad Awad was introduced to the President as well. Awad is co-founder and executive director of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR). CAIR is allegedly the premier Muslim civil rights organization. However, U.S. Terror expert, Steve Emerson said, "CAIR, which touts itself as America's premier Muslim civil rights organization, was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Terror trial." He noted that CAIR co-founders Nihad Awad and Omar Ahmad attended "a 1993 Philadelphia meeting where the HAMAS members and supporters discussed a strategy to kill the Oslo Peace Accords, which threatened to marginalize HAMAS. The group also discussed ways to improve HAMAS fundraising in America."

From Pamela Geller's article Grover Norquist's Jihad, Steven Spencer, author, scholar, and co-founder with Pamela Geller of Freedom Defense Initiative, stated, "CAIR operatives have repeatedly refused to denounce Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist groups. Several former CAIR officials have been convicted of various crimes related to jihad terror. CAIR's cofounder and longtime Board chairman (Omar Ahmad), as well as its chief spokesman (Honest Ibe Hooper), have made Islamic supremacist statements. CAIR has warred against free speech in the past."

Support for Ground Zero Mosque

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf [1] and proponents of his plan to build a 13-story Islamic center near Ground Zero were helped by Grover Norquist. Grover and his friends distributed a letter saying that the Republicans fighting Imam Rauf’s plan are infringing upon religious freedom and are “alienating millions of Arab American and Muslim American voters who believe, as we do, in the principles of our party—individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law.”

Among those signing the letter were Suhail A. Khan, listed as the Chairman of the Conservative Inclusion Coalition and Norquist’s wife, Samah, listed as a Senior Advisor to Arab and Muslim Outreach for the U.S. Agency for International Development under the Bush Administration.

Grover Norquist, Muslim Mole, by Ryan Mauro, states, "Khan’s mother served on the board of CAIR’s California branch and Khan accused critics of CAIR of exploiting the Fort Hood shooting for their 'political partisan and worse, for their racist ends.' ” Frank Gaffney, President of the Center for Security Policy, told me that an FBI Special Agent involved in terrorism investigations informed him that Khan is indeed a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Khan was also intimately involved in Norquist’s efforts to help these groups develop a partnership with the Bush Administration. He was reported as being the one at the White House responsible for managing the outreach to the Brotherhood-tied groups whose events he has a history of speaking for."

This is who Grover Norquist supports. Like the Soros-funded study, “Fear, Inc.,” from the Center for America Progress, Grover labels anyone who disagrees with his views as “Islamophobic.”

In a Human Events article from October, 2011, Representative Frank Wolf, Republican from Virginia, called out Grover Norquist for his ties to Islamic supremacists and jihad terrorists. Norquist never answered the charges. He used the tried and true tactic of the leftists by screaming racism, victim status, and anti-Muslim bigotry. Then he topped it off by making personal attacks against Wolf.

Conclusion

AT CPAC in 2010, Grover Norquist told a George Soros publication that Islam “is completely consistent with the U.S. Constitution and a free and open society,” a statement that reveals either a profound lack of understanding of Islamic law, or a conscious effort at deception.

Norquist is still a member of the secretive Council for National Policy who claims to be a cabal of rightwing groups, even though we know differently. He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and he has documented ties to Islamist terrorist groups. The phony right has long been in bed with the left's agenda and Norquist is a prime example. But what really boggles my mind is the statement by Jack Abramoff that a new organization modeled on Grover's ATR is needed to push a serious agenda of legislative changes to clean up the lobbying corruption.

Of interest is that Jack Abramoff is an Orthodox Jew, and his good friend, Grover Norquist is not only very close to Islamic groups, but also is married to a Muslim woman. These groups and their leaders have documented ties to Islamic jihadists, and Grover has accepted money from many of these Islamic leaders.

I've known for decades about the establishment Republicans being in bed with the left. Nothing ever changes. The quotes from Carroll Quigley in part one of this article make that clear. Norquist is an easy phony to spot, unlike many of the other phony "conservative Christians" and their groups. Most others wear such amazing masks of conservative covering that it is terribly difficult for the uneducated to grasp the depths of deception. We all need to have greater discernment in judgment.
