Keith Ellison and the Muslim Brotherhood

Looks like a bad CAIR day for Keith (aka Keith Hakim, Keith X Ellison, and Keith Ellison-Muhammad) Ellison too!
Keith Ellison, antisemitism, and the Muslim Brotherhood convention in Minnesota -

Ellison allowed the National Executive Director of CAIR, Nihad Awad, and its National Chairman, Parvez Ahmed, to donate and raise thousands of dollars for his campaign. CAIR or the Council on American-Islamic Relations is a creation of the former American propaganda wing of Hamas, the terrorist organization dedicated to “implementing Allah’s promise” of “fighting the Jews” and “killing them,” as is stated in the group’s charter.

Keith Ellison’s Dangerous Liaisons
By Joe KaufmanFrontPageMagazine.com June 1, 2007
Anti-Semitism and Keith Ellison seem to gravitate toward one another.
It was the case throughout the 90’s, when he was heavily active in the Nation of Islam (NOI), and it was the case just last weekend, when he gave the keynote address at the 4th Annual Convention of the Muslim American Society of Minnesota. It’s a disturbing pattern from someone that purports to be a man of peace and, more importantly, someone sitting in the position of United States Congressman.
In May of 2006, then-candidate for House of Representatives, Keith Ellison, faxed a letter to the Executive Director of the Minnesota Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC), Stephen Silberfarb, stating, “There has been much speculation about my past connections to the Nation of Islam… I have long since distanced myself from and rejected the Nation of Islam due to its propagation of bigoted and anti-Semitic ideas and statements, as well as other issues. I have a deep and personal aversion to anti-Semitism regardless of its source and I reject and condemn the anti-Semitic statements and actions of the Nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan, and Khalid Muhammed.”

Meanwhile... back in Egypt...
Egypt to US-based group Human Rights Watch: Legalize Muslim Brotherhood!
"In the week Egypt boasted about its election to the UN Human Rights Council, it was arresting scores of people solely for exercising their right to free association and free speech," HRW Deputy Director Joe Stork said in the statement.
