Robert Malley, a man who was apparently too toxic to advise Obama’s campaign in 2008, has now been assigned as the senior director at the National Security Council where he will be working on US policy for the Middle East. So what made him too toxic in 2008?
In 2008, Mr. Malley was forced to sever his ties as an informal adviser to the campaign of Barack Obama when it was reported that he had met with members of Hamas, the militant Palestinian group, which the State Department classifies as a terrorist organization.
But he has other ties as well that are cause for concern. His father, someone who was reported as being ‘rabidly anti-Israel‘, was as colleague to one of the founders of the Communist Party in Egypt.
In 2011 Malley said that working with the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt was “not a bad idea”, because:
“They are an important constituency in Egypt. They’re very likely to play a role in any future arrangements there.”
Malley has also worked as director of the International Crisis Group which released a report in 2008 advocating that the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood become part of the ‘political mainstream’ in Egypt:
The three-year clash between the government and the Muslim Brothers is damaging Egypt’s political life. Ending this confrontation and moving towards the long-term goal of integrating the Brothers into the political mainstream is a far better option.
On the board of the the ICG were also a couple of members who were tied to the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, Wadah Khanfar and Anwar Ibrahim. You can read more about them in Walid Shoebat’s report on all of this. There’s also a nice little nugget of prophecy info at the end of his report – about Russia.
Well isn't this just swell? This is akin to Roosevelt appointing a Nazi to National Defense during WWII.
I would suggest (AGAIN for the umpteenth time) that this is a treasonous action. But why bother, it will remain crickets from the media and the GOP. Neither one will ever do anything against our commie king.

Time for the rope and lamp post industries to get a stimulus. I can dream.

Well, FDR did run with the communist apologist and sympathizer, Henry Wallace.

Thanks for the reminder.
And, come to think of it, when McCarthy investigated communists infiltrating the government and media, he was trashed. Boy the more things change ........ The difference now is that we are much closer to the completion of that fundamental transformation.

FDR was informed early on about Communist infiltration into the New Deal. His response was: I do not believe in Communism any more than you do, but there is nothing wrong with the Communists in this country. Several of the best friends I have are Communists." (emphasis added)
Wallace was insignificant. He was the ultimate "useful idiot." A far greater danger was present with the deep infiltration of Communists into the American government, traitors like Currie, Hiss, Owen Lattimore, Harry Dexter White, Lee Pressman, and even quite likely Harry Hopkins (the Valerie Jarrett of the day). It was this incredible penetration of our government that Senator McCarthy tried to expose and for which he was destroyed personally and politically.
