Dr. Khalid Al-Mansour connection to Barack Obama

[Derailed]

Stumbled across this today at zTruth:

Amanda Carpenter at Townhall wrote an interesting article yesterday about a man named Dr. Khalid Al-Mansour who helped Barack Obama get into Harvard Law School and also helped raise money for him.  One major problem,  there are numerous videos of a Dr. Khalid Al-Mansour blasting Christians and Jews, including one video predicting the death of Christianity.

So what? Dig it up. Get a bigger shovel.

Birds of a feather flock together. Dims don't care.

Of course Dims don't care - they are the new anti-America party.  

Naturally, it wouldn't bother them, at all, that Mansour was a senior advisor to a Saudi prince either.

What an awesome website!  That is great! Is this a Tulsa 'blog?'  I love it!

Here is the text from the TownHall.com TownHall piece:

'Old videos appear to show a radical Muslim named Khalid Al-Mansour helped Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama gain acceptance into Harvard Law.

Civil rights activist Percy Sutton recalled being solicited by a man named Dr. Khalid A-Mansour to write a letter of recommendation to help Obama gain acceptance into Harvard Law in this undated television interview available HERE.

"I was introduced to him [Obama] by a friend who was raising money for him and the friends name was Dr. Khalid al Mansour from Texas," Sutton said. "He is the principle adviser to one of the world's richest men. He told me about Obama. He wrote to me about him and his introduction was 'there is a young man that has applied to Harvard and I know that you have a few friends left there because you used to go up there to speak, would you please write a letter in support of him?'...I wrote a letter in support of him to my friends at Harvard saying to them I thought there was a genius that was going to be available and I sure hoped they would treat him kindly."

There are many videos available on the internet featuring a man named Khalid Al-Mansour, who describes himself as an author, scholar and businessman, blasting the Jewish culture and Christianity and preaching the virtues of Islam, reminiscent of the controversial clips discovered of Obama's longtime friend and former pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright that rocked headlines earlier this spring.

In one of the videos, titled "Christians Designed Discrimination" uploaded by a YouTube user named IslamStudios, Al-Mansour said, "White people don't feel bad, whatever you do to them, they deserve it, God wants you to do it and that's when you cut out the nose, cut out the ears, take flesh out of their body, don't worry because God wants you to do it."

He also draws lines between whites and African Americans. "The Christianity that white people got and the Christianity that black people got was not the same," he added.

In this video, Al-Monsour said white people fear Islam. "The whites are saying we can't take over Islam, we are going to destroy it. They don't care if you become a Buddhist, they don't care if you are a Confuscist, you can be a Christian, you can be anything in this world you want, the only thing they are afraid of is Islam because there is 1 billion 200 million, they don't want you with that league!

In another video, posted July 1, Al-Mansour styles himself as a political analyst, advising former president Bill Clinton when, where and how Clinton should endorse Obama for president.'

The claim would be then, that Obama is being hand-picked by the Saudis to be president???

I had a feeling that some of you guys would running to your winger "safe places" like townhall and free republic tonight.  There ain't nothin' "awesome" about townhall.com, it's just another right-wing echo chamber.

Have fun with your speculative, Islamophobic, and really, really unimportant "piece".  Some guy says he wrote a letter of support.  What a bombshell.

Name a Bush that WASN'T an adviser to a Saudi Prince...hell, the Crown Saudi Prince.  Does this bother you?




I could give a crap.  What the hell kind of litmus test is this?  Honestly?  Do you think your Republican buddies are going to go for all this arab bashing?  Maybe you should creep off back to freeperland.

From WorldNutDaily:

'Not yet clear is who exactly this Khalid al-Mansour is. There are at least two candidates, one more troubling than the other. The first is a Muslim crackpot preacher who has not met the paranoid racial fantasy unworthy of his energy.

'The second, more likely, is a Dr. Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour, described as "an internationally acknowledged adviser to heads of state and business leaders in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and North America."

'Apparently, al-Mansour serves on the Board of, among others, Saudi African Bank and was responsible for the Africa investment activities of Kingdom Holdings, Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal's investment company.'
