"Mayor Bloomberg's uncritical support of Israel has undermined the local community's efforts to build bridges of mutual understanding between interfaith groups," said Father Khader N. El-Yateem, pastor of Salam Arabic Lutheran Church.Just what we need. Another task force. Hopefully Bloomberg told them to fuck off.
"The mayor represents all New Yorkers," said Network of Arab-American Professionals of New York's co-founder Sarab Al-Jijakli. "Moving forward, we hope Mayor Bloomberg refrains from making unbalanced foreign policy statements that alienate and marginalize the Muslim and Arab-American communities of this city."
Other groups participating in the meeting included the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC), the Arab Muslim American Federation, the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), and the Association of Muslim American Lawyers.
The groups called for the establishment of a task force that would provide consultation on issues affecting the New York Muslim and Arab-American communities.

Terror Supporters Lecture Bloomberg
While we often have our beefs with NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, we stand by his side when it comes to supporting Israel. His speaking out against terrorism apparently hasn't gone over well with the unindicted terror co-conspirators from CAIR. Apparently these whiners are finding it difficult to get any news coverage (a good sign, indeed) and are reduced to churning out PR releases.
