UPDATE: You can see a video of the press conferencehere.
This sounds extremely interesting.....I hope our local media and politicians pay attention to who's in charge at the Islamic Society of Boston. This deserves attention, scrutiny and action from our leaders. From Americans for Peace and Tolerance:
WHAT: Press Conference to Caution about Extremist Leadership of the Boston Islamic Center. WHEN: Thursday, June 25th, 10:30 AM WHERE: Sheraton Crowne Plaza Hotel, Newton, 320 Washington Street, Newton MA 02158
WHY: Gov. Patrick and Mayor Menino are about to embrace extremist leaders of an Islamic cultural center linked to the radical Muslim Brotherhood organization.
Background:
On Friday, June 26th, city and state officials will participate in the opening of the Islamic Society of Boston’s Cultural Center (ISBCC) in Roxbury, MA. But at the June 25th Press Conference, Americans for Peace and Tolerance will release new documentation and information about:
n The real ownership and funding of the ISBCC
n The ISBCC leaders’ radical organizational connections and hateful ideology, and
n Anti-Christian and anti-Jewish sermons
The ISBCC is now controlled by the Muslim American Society (MAS). U.S. Federal prosecutors have identified the MAS as, “The overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in America.” We call upon Governor Patrick and Mayor Menino to reject the extremist leadership of the ISBCC while continuing to reach out to the moderate Muslim community in Boston. .
Americans for Peace and Tolerance (APT) is a Boston-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting peaceful coexistence in an ethnically diverse America... . We are concerned citizens, academics, and community activists. As Christians, Jews, and Muslims, we believe peaceful coexistence among diverse ethnic populations is only possible if we all promote a climate of tolerance and civil society.
