Obama selects a voice of radical Islam | Washington Examiner: "President Obama has made some terrible appointments during his first year in the White House, including now-former White House environmental adviser Van Jones, who once signed a petition accusing President George W. Bush of allowing the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks as a pretext for going to war. Jones also defended a radical Marxist group in San Francisco known as Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement.

But, as Examiner columnist Cal Thomas wrote recently, Obama's selection of Rashad Hussain, his deputy associate White House counsel, as U.S. special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference, 'should be of concern to Congress and the American people.' Comprising 57 member states, the OIC's charter makes clear its purpose is to 'defend' and 'disseminate' the Muslim faith. Whenever human rights collide with Islam, the OIC sides with the latter."
