Much like President Barack Hussein Obama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for zero accomplishments in foreign or domestic affairs, we find that the terrorist sympathizers at CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) awarding their ignominious “American Muslim of the Year” award to a poseur with zero accomplishments.

Ahmed Mohamed, the lying 14-year-old Texas schoolboy who rose to fame when he brought what appeared to be a suspicious device to school. Claiming that he had built the digital clock, he had taken it to school to show it to his engineering teacher. It turns out that his “creation” was simply an old Radio Shack Micronta digital clock with its case removed and placed into another case. No big accomplishment! 

Because the device had hanging wires, a battery, and a digital display, authorities erred on the side of caution and called the police. Many suspect that this event was a pathetic attempt to gain attention, a publicity stunt promoted by his Muslim activist father, or a trial run to test the reactions of the authorities – much like a dry run prior to a terrorist act.

Whatever, the reason, the mainstream media converged on the story, Mohamed was embraced by Obama and feted as a Muslim hero. Few demanded to see the device up close and the school was prevented from speaking out on the story due to student privacy and his father’s refusal to sign a waiver.

Bottom line …

There is adequate reason to suspect the activities of CAIR, a known supporter of Islamic terrorism, and any media outlet that does not investigate this apparent hoax on the world stage. There was nothing new, novel, or creative in taking a clock out of one case and putting it into another – that is unless you are Barack Obama and desperate to promote Islam.

The fact that there are a number of well-credentialed, well-qualified Islamic researchers working in American universities on issues of substance in medicine, physics, and mathematics … makes this award as big a joke as Obama’s “Peace Prize.”

We are so screwed.
