I only began posting today, and I do not care to look through every single post you may have made to find your earlier arguments, so please, entertain me, or direct me to those compelling arguments, because thus far, I have not seen them. To convince me that Obama is a friend to terrorists, you need to convincingly argue that he is in fact a friend of terrorists. Just because Hamas endorsed him, doesn't mean they are friends. Give me the proof that they are friends.

You are seriously distorting the facts. It took a lot of research, but I have finally figured out what happened. You see, it took some time, because Obama never gave Khalidi $70,000. He donated that money to the Arab American Action Network, not the PLO nor to Khalidi. If that money had in fact gone to the PLO, then your argument would have weight. The AAAN is an organization that is designed to provide assistance to Arab-Americans living in Chicago. I fail to see how this is funding or assisting terrorists. I repeat, the AAAN is an organization designed to help Americans in America. Khalidi founded the organization, but is no longer a part of it. The organization is meant to help people. Who cares who it was founded by? The money doesn't go to terrorists. Period. Obama did not funnel money to Khalidi. Even your own article from the LA Times doesn't say this. The grant went to a social services group, not to Mona Khalidi. That social services group is the AAAN, which again, is an organization that helps people in the US, not terrorists. But wait, you say, Khalidi is a known terrorist. He has ties to the PLO, thus showing that Obama has friends who are terrorists. I have thus far found no hard evidence that proves that he was part of the people that engaged in terrorist activities back in the 70's. He was certainly never an advisor to Arafat, as you claim. It is true that he is pro-Palestine, but that doesn't mean he was part of the PLO. Although the PLO has certainly engaged in terrorist activities, at the same time, the PLO does also do some good things as well. Khalidi lauded them because they were pro-Palestine, like he is, but no where does it say that he lauded how they achieved their goals. The only evidence that he was even part of the PLO is conjecture. Saying the conjecture is the summation of evidence is tantamount to conspiracy theory. If you have hard evidence, I would enjoy reading it. Next, Ayers. But first, the board you mention is the Woods Fund. Do you even know what it was created to do? It is designed to help build communities in Chicago, in particular to create affordable housing for needy families. You make it sound like it's some shady organization that doles out money to terrorists. It simply doesn't, unless you are arguing that needy families in Chicago are terrorists. But you're right on one point, Ayers was a member of the board, but so what? It's never been proven that Ayers engaged in terrorism, and beyond that, it was 40 years ago. You make it seem like Khalidi and Ayers are currently active terrorists, but they aren't. You're going to chastise Obama for trying to help build communities for the needy. You would rather Obama, on mere speculation and conjecture, and no solid evidence reject entirely an opportunity to help people? If the evidence linking Ayers and Khalidi to terrorism were stronger, and Obama were associating more frequently with them, you're argument would make more sense. If Obama had helped fund terrorism, it would make more sense. But Obama didn't. He helped fund creating homes for needy families. It is true that Obama wants to assist people in Palestine. That is because many people in Palestine are in very poor conditions. Vis-a-vis, he wants to help the poor. What's wrong with that? Is it the fact that they are Arab that bothers you? Yes, Khalidi also wants to help the people in Palestine. Khalidi and Obama spoke on a few occasions, and Khalidi educated Obama on the plight of people in Palestine. Khalidi is an intelligent man, and has insight. Obama was listening to the insight. But Khalidi is still not a proven terrorist, so Obama having talked to him doesn't make him an associate to terrorists. Your so-called evidence that he is is mere conjecture. Your links to Ayers and Khalidi are poor at best, and at worst, deceptive tactics to create phantom scandals that poison the minds of people that only look at headlines, but don't read or research the topics. Finally, you directly claimed that Obama funneled money to Khalidi, but that is false. You claimed that Khalidi was an advisor to Arafat: false. I am open to being proven wrong, so if you have hard evidence, please present it. I have thus far been unable to find it.
