Investigation Discovers Islamists Sit On New Jersey Governor Chris Christie’s Muslim Outreach Committee

An investigation has discovered that at least four Islamists sit on New Jersey Governor Chris Christie’s Muslim outreach committee, which was formed after Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa concluded in May that NYPD intelligence-gathering operations in New Jersey did not break any laws.

All of the information about the Islamist backgrounds of these four committee members is publicly available, yet the Christie Administration picked them to serve as liaisons to the Muslim community of the state. As a result, they are having private meetings with N.J.’s top security officials. This is just the latest example of Christie’s embrace of Islamists that should be shunned, not exalted.

The discovery that the Islamists were on the committee was made when RadicalIslam.org obtained a previously unreleased list of committee members present at a September 5, 2012 meeting at the Leroy Smith Building in Newark.

The four committee members of concern are:
• Imam Mohammad Qatanani, whose deportation is sought by the Department of Homeland Security for not disclosing on his green card application that he was arrested and convicted by Israel in 1993 for his involvement with Hamas;
• Ahmed Shedeed, a fervent supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood and President of the Islamic Center of Jersey City, a mosque with a history of Islamist leadership. Its website currently contains disturbing statements about jihad, the West, wife beating and polygamy;
• Mohammed Younes, the President of the American Muslim Union, a group with Islamist leadership and close ties to Qatanani’s mosque, which was founded by a Hamas fundraiser; and
• Imam Abdul Basit of the New Brunswick Islamic Center, a mosque founded by a radical cleric. In July, it held a Brotherhood-linked seminar featuring multiple extremist speakers.

Addressing the committee were: Attorney General Chiesa, NJ State Police Superintendent Colonel Rick Fuentes and the Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness Director Edward Dickson. These addresses were followed by dialogue with committee members.

Other NJ officials that were present at the meeting were: First Assistant Attorney General Calcagni, Special Assistant Christopher Iu, Special Assistant Paul Salvatoriello, State Police Major Gerald Lewis and Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness Community Affairs Chief John Paige.

New Jersey R.I.C.O. Case, September 1, 2010

Ex-investigator’s suit alleges corruption, coverup

Papers sealed in suit alleging coverup by state, January 21, 2011

James Sweeney, Obituary (published July 26, 2011)

N.J. Governor Christopher Christie letter, March 29, 2010

The corruption in the Farmington (N.H.) Police Department and cover up by (now former N.H.A.G.) U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte has ties to Bergen County N.J. prosecutor’s office.

N.J. ATTORNEY GENERAL PAULA DOW LEAVING THE OFFICE

The Star Ledger reports “N.J. Attorney General Paula Dow leaves office after nearly 2 stressful, sometimes frustrating, years.”

“Still, rumors of her departure swirled for months, and it was no secret that she wanted to be a judge. In December, Gov. Chris Christie granted her wish, choosing her for the Superior Court in Essex County. But her place on the bench will have to wait until the governor and the county’s Democratic senators agree on her and other nominations.”

On March 14, 2010 I wrote to Governor Christopher Christie, with attached documentation, requesting his assistance and intervention. Due to government  employees non-compliance with the law, I called upon him to cause an investigation into a most egregious travesty of justice and violations of oaths of office, breach of responsibility and statutory protocol, Obstruction of Justice, malfeasance of office and abuse of power.

“Pursuant to N.J. Constitution, Art. V, Sec. IV(5), The Governor may cause an investigation to be made of the conduct in office of any officer or employee who receives his compensation from the State of New Jersey, except a member, officer or employee of the Legislature or an officer elected by the Senate and General Assembly in joint meeting, or a judicial officer. He may require such officers or employees to submit to him a written statement or statements, under oath, of such information as he may call for relating to the conduct of their respective offices or employments. After notice, the service of charges and an opportunity to be heard at public hearing the Governor may remove any such officer or employee for cause. Such officer or employee shall have the right of judicial review, on both the law and the facts, in such manner as shall be provided by law.”

On March 29, 2010 I received a reply from Governor Christie stating that he asked Attorney General Paula Dow to review the information I sent to him and reply to me directly. Attorney General Dow did not reply to me and has failed to respond to Governor Christie’s directive. Contact information was given to the A.G.’s office for a Private Investigator from New Hampshire who went to New Jersey in May 2009 for further investigation into the matter and he was never contacted. This Private Investigator is well respected in New Hampshire and his investigation revealed gross violations of N.J. Statutes including contributory negligence which meet the requirements of culpability N.J.S.A. 2C:2-2; 26:6.

Governor Christie was made aware of the fact that A.G. Paula Dow had failed to respond to his directive. I have had no response from Governor Christie as of yet.

How does Paula Dow justify a judgeship when she has failed in her duties, oath and public trust as New Jersey’s top law enforcement officer?

How can Governor Christie justify his nomination of Paula Dow where she lacks integrity and public trust?

WILL THIS BE THE FALL OF “KEY MAN” JON CORZINE?

The Hill reports “The spectacular fall of Jon Corzine will be on display Thursday when the former New Jersey senator and governor testifies before a House panel on the bankruptcy of his former firm, MF Global. Just months ago Corzine, a Democrat, was seen as a possible successor to Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner.

Corzine, who co-headed Goldman Sachs before running for the Senate, now is likely to plead the Fifth Amendment in front of former colleagues, not plead for their confirmation.”

Jon Corzine and members of his administration covered up criminal activity during his tenure as governor, will he get away with this?

Evidence has been turned over to Governor Christopher Christie. Will he follow in Corzine’s footsteps?
