'Case raises questions about Bonior's Islamist support'

According to this:

Nevertheless, Michigan's (former) Congressman David Bonior employed Abdullah al-Arian as an intern -- even though he was a Florida resident going to college in North Carolina.

Any sins of the father should not be visited on his children. But it is not every day a congressman hires as his intern the son of a man who advocates damning America and allegedly conducting terrorism...

After Sami al-Arian's arrest, Bonior confirmed the message, issuing a statement in support of al-Arian that called the government's actions "very, very strange." Bonior noted he and al-Arian had worked together to prevent the government's use of secret evidence in anti-terrorism cases. He says al-Arian's opposition to secret evidence shows he "cares very deeply about civil rights and civil liberty."

There's another interpretation. Bonior's support for al-Arian and working to frustrate government cases against terror suspects -- demanding undercover sources be exposed to the public (and to the risk of terrorist retribution) -- sends a clear message of support for the radical Islamist agenda...

The George Will column 'Baghdad Bonior' from 10/03/02 is interesting as well.

The recent column 'Speak To Me, Ibrahim!' has a few questions that Ibrahim Hooper of CAIR won't answer, such as:

[3] CAIR's stated intention in the library campaign is to help Americans learn about Islam "as a religion of peace and justice." How is this goal consistent with financing from Wahhabis, a sect so fanatical and extremist that it sanctions violence against non-Muslims and even against Muslims it considers heretical?
