'Deep' and 'Extensive' Ties? Not So Much
Topic: WorldNetDaily

Aaron Klein strains mightily in a Feb. 24 WorldNetDaily article to portray the Islamic Society of North America, which he describes as a "radical Muslim group," as having "an extensive relationship with the Obama administration," adding that "The Obama White House has deep ties to ISNA."

The evidence Klein offers to support his claim, however, is less than compelling. He offers only a handful of alleged "ties," one of which is that "the Justice Department sponsored an information booth at an ISNA bazaar in Washington, D.C." An information booth is an example of "deep ties"?

Three of the other instances involve ISNA president Ingrid Mattson attending non-exclusive gatherings at the White House.

Klein has much deeper ties to right-wing Israeli extremists than the ISNA has to the White House.
