American Muslims turned out to demonstrate in front of the Israeli consulate in New York today, showing their support for the Hamas monster Sheikh Yassin: Pro-Palestinian Protest Hits Out at Sharon and Bush.

“We stand alone in the globe in not condemning this act,” said Palestinian-American Mustafa. “This is a terrorist act and I’m ashamed of the double standard. This double standard is bringing us hate from all the Arab world, the Muslim world.”

A memorial rally was scheduled later in the evening in the New York borough of Brooklyn to protest the killing of Yassin, founder and spiritual leader of Hamas.

At the evening rush-hour protest across from the consulate, demonstrators carried signs such as “Sharon and Bush - War Criminals,” and raised chants including, “Sheikh Yassin, rest in peace, Israel will never sleep.”

“Stop Bush from lying to Americans,” shouted Ali Hamideh, a 45-year-old musician from Yonkers, New York, who was born in Jerusalem. “They are not acting like a government. They are acting like a Mafia.

”Bush and Sharon are partners in these crimes.“

Samia Halaby, 67, an abstract painter and former college art professor, said she was sickened by the attack on Yassin.

”It was a murder, an assassination. It was illegal, it’s immoral and typical of a fascist government. U.S. approval of such an action is disgusting.”

These people are the very same ones who complain of discrimination when someone looks at them cross-eyed—yet they take to the streets to openly support a sworn enemy of the United States, the leader of a group that heads the State Department’s list of terrorist organizations.

The fifth column is here among us, and no one wants to see it.
