Rashid Khalidi, Terrorist Friend of The Current President, Calls for Funding for Next Jihad War Convoy Flotilla Ship, Ironically Named "Audacity of Hope"

H/T ATLAS SHRUGS: Obama's Terror Pal Rashid Khalidi Calls for Funding for Next Jihad War Convoy Flotilla, "Audacity of Hope"

Rashid Khalidi, the Edward Said Professor of Arab Studies at Columbia University, reportedly has signed an appeal for funds to outfit a ship–to be named The Audacity of Hope–that will challenge the Israeli blockade of Gaza in September or October. Khalidi and his wife (who also signed the appeal) became friends and occasional dinner companions of Barack Obama when Khalidi was on the faculty of the University of Chicago.

Obama and Rashid Khalidi go way back. Obama babysat Khalidi's kids, Khalidi did a fund-raiser for Obama in 2001, and Obama sat on the board of the Woods Foundation with terrorist Bill Ayers and gave Khalidi $40,000 and $30,000 grants respectively.

Right now you're maybe thinking "wait a minute, the headline said that Rashid Khalidi is a terrorist", and all that has been said so far is that he is a professor at Columbia University and that The Current President baby-sat Mr. Khalidi's children and was the beneficiary of a political fundraiser from Mr. Khalidi.  So how exactly does that make Rashid Khalidi a terrorist?  Well, those things do not make him a terrorist.  There are some other things that he has done which would tend to classify Rashid Khalidi as a terrorist. Read Rashid Khalidi's profile at Discover The Networks and see if you agree that he deserves the ignoble title of terrorist, or since there is no evidence that he has blown up any buses himself, at the very least an important and unashamed terrorist sympathizer and material supporter of terrorism.  There is plenty of evidence that Rashid Khalidi is a personal friend and supporter of The Current President of The United States of America. 


So the ship will be named The Audacity of Hope?  I'm sure that is only a coincidence.
