Anti-War Protests Held In L.A. & Other Cities.

I thought it quite interesting that Sharaf Mowjood of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) was at the protest. As most of you are aware CAIR is an "un-indicted co-conspirator" in the Holy Land Foundation case.

CAIR was created in June of 1994 as a part of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestine Committee, a quad of groups looking for ways to finance Hamas from the United States. See Front Page Magazine

Protesters in several US cities held anti-war rallies Saturday to mark the fifth anniversary of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, March 20th. More rallies are planned in coming days in other U.S. cities. Mike O'Sullivan reports, several thousand joined an anti-war protest in Los Angeles.

Sharaf Mowjood of the Council on American-Islamic Relations says the continued presence of American troops is worsening conditions in Iraq, and diverting attention from domestic U.S. problems, including rebuilding New Orleans. The city was devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

"We need to pull out immediately. That's the main thing right now we need to do. It's a conundrum as it is," he said. "So it's in a situation where the best viable option is to pull out because you have a lot of these internal problems you have to deal with, health care, sub-prime mortgage crisis, Katrina, all that. We need to work on those issues first."


Too bad he didn't mention the real reason he wants the U.S. to pull out of Iraq. "Hamas in Iraq" terrorist group maybe?
