Up until today, neither Fox hosts nor Fox guests, on shows that I've reviewed, mentioned that the “controversial” Imam of the Manhattan Islamic cultural center has ties to the Bush administration and the FBI. Sean Hannity claimed that this member of the Muslim clergy wants to “shred our Constitution” and “is anything but moderate.” Hannity even asked if Rauf should be in the country. A number of anti-mosque Fox guests have repeated the meme that Rauf dislikes the US. Unofficial 9-11 “spokesperson,” Debra Burlingame said that Rauf is a liar and is funded by terrorists to which Fox “news” anchor, Shannon Bream, didn’t bat an eyelash. But funny, the real information is out there with only a quick check of “Lexis” or even just plain “Google.” Sam Stein, at the Huffington Post, has put it all together. It was mentioned this morning on Fox & Friends; but during the segment, Gretchen Carlson continued to advance the same old, same old Fox/right wing anti mosque propaganda.
Stein reported that Rauf was “brought to a forum hosted by the FBI shortly after 9/11 to help ease the social tensions between Muslim Americans and federal agents.” He also reported that this “radical” Imam has participated in interfaith forums at the Aspen Institute where he rubbed elbows with political figures from both parties. But here’s the shocking part about this terrorist in Imam’s clothing. He assisted the Bush administration with outreach to Muslims. He even accompanied Bush advisor Karen Hughes to the Middle East. In 2007, the Bush State Department sent him on a tour of Muslim countries in order to promote tolerance and religious diversity. Finally, this morning, Clayton Morris mentioned this information on Fox & Friends; although unabashedly right wing Gretchen Carlson alluded to Rauch’s comment about US policies being responsible for 9-11 – a view held by 9-11 Commissioners and Glenn Beck! She also referenced Rauf’s “so called State Department trip” as a way to “maybe raise some money.” Gretch made baseless suggestion that the “so called trip” is really a fundraiser for the mosque - a comment that she made at another point during the show. She claimed that Rauf has “not really gone on record to call Hamas a terrorist organization – words taken straight out of Murdoch’s NY Post and echoed by Islamophobe Pam Geller on her blog. As Clayton Morris retorted that the Bush administration didn’t have a problem with his comments, the agitprop chyron, trying to have it both ways, read: “A Man of Peace? Rauf Assisted FBI in Counterterrorism Efforts.”
Comment: Wonder if the rest of the Fox entourage will bring up these new “inconvenient truths?” Oh, and does Fox "News" know that there's a mosque in the Pentagon which was also damaged on 9-11?!

Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, who was Chief of Staff for Secretary of State Colin Powell, has charged in a sworn affidavit that top officials of the Bush administration — including Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Vice President Dick Cheney and President Bush himself — knowingly left innocent detainees to languish in prison to avoid political fallout. “Their view was that innocent people languishing in Guantánamo for years was justified by the broader war on terror and the capture of the small number of terrorists who were responsible for the September 11 attacks, or other acts of terrorism,” Colonel Wilkerson stated.
Wilkerson, a longtime critic of the Bush detainee process, wrote the affidavit in support of the lawsuit by former Guantanamo detainee Adel Hassan Hamad, who was innocent. The Bush administration repatriated Hamad to Sudan without charges on December 12, 2007 after five years of detention. Wilkerson calls Hamad one of the “victims of incompetent battlefield vetting.”...
