MIAMI ISLAMIST GROUP HELPS RAISE MONEY FOR ANTI-JEWISH WEBSITE, REBEL NEWS

AMANA REPRODUCES ENTIRE PAGE OF REBEL NEWS SITE, INCLUDING PLEA FOR DONORS

(Miami, FL) The American Muslim Association of North America (AMANA), a Miami-based radical Muslim group that has been posting articles taken from the anti-Semitic website Rebel News, currently has contained on its website an entire page reproduced from the anti-Jewish site.

You can view the "mirror" page here (Scroll down to the bottom).

On the page (dated May 16, 2010), which shows the Rebel News logo atop it, can be found a plea for donations to Rebel News – evidence that AMANA has been working with the anti-Semitic group and helping it to raise money.

As well, on December 28, 2010, the same day Rebel News posted an article on its website stating that a group of mostly Jews had given the "green light" for the 9/11 attacks, AMANA and its Director Sofian Abdelaziz Zakkout republished the article on the AMANA site, complete with Rebel News' graphic for the article.

On January 11, 2011, after Americans Against Hate (AAH) exposed the offense, AMANA defiantly reposted the article on its homepage, where it is today.

On its website, Rebel News contends that "there are no good Jews" and that being Jewish is a "pathological mental condition."
