Radical Islamist groups are planting activists posing as
ordinary Muslim Americans to ask candidates questions at the presidential
debates.
Most recently, the controversial Council on American-Islamic Relations,
several of whose leaders have been prosecuted on terror-related charges, sent
the executive director of its Chicago chapter to take part in the Democratic
presidential debate in Des Moines, Iowa, which was supposed to be an opportunity
for "ordinary people" to ply candidates with questions.
(...)
Also, at last month's Republican debate in St. Petersburg,
Fla., a former CAIR intern was selected by host CNN to challenge GOP presidential
hopefuls about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and complain about the anger
they've created in the Muslim world.
(...)
CNN, which claimed to pick questioners at random from a
pool of "undecided voters," did not cite Elhady's activist background with CAIR.
The network simply identified her as "Yasmin from Huntsville, Ala." (She
actually lives in Los Angeles, where she attends college at UCLA.)
I see the CNN doesn't know who it's putting in the audience to ask questions. Might as well put skinheads, neo-Nazis, KKKers, radical misogynists, femiNazis, gay bashers and other kinds of intolerant bigots in there to ask questions, not bothering to check into their backgrounds, either!

Earlier, at CNN's Democratic debate in Las Vegas, another
Muslim activist associated with CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood was handed the
microphone.
(...)
But Khan, an immigrant from
Pakistan, is no ordinary American citizen. He's president of the Islamic Society
of Nevada, which has its roots with the radical Muslim Student Association. MSA,
which was founded by members of the notorious Muslim Brotherhood, is the
forerunner of the Islamic Society of North America, an unindicted co-conspirator
in the same terror case with CAIR.
Uh-oh!
