On November 22-25, activists with links to the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas will come together at the Oak Brook Hills Marriott Resort in Illinois for American Muslims for Palestine's (AMP) Conference for Palestine in the U.S.: A Movement United. The event also highlights the Islamists' success in forging interfaith partnerships with Reverend Donald Wagner of Evangelicals for Middle East Understanding as one of the speakers.
American Muslims for Palestine isn't just about Palestinian statehood. It's about the elimination of Israel. Michael Rubin points out that "Its home page depicts the conference logo—a map of Palestine made from birds showing the Palestinian state encompassing all of Israel. So much for the two-state solution."
AMP conferences promote Islamist thought. In 2004, its chairman, Hatem Bazian, praised the "uprising in Iraq" (which was against U.S. soldiers) and the "intifada in Palestine" and said an American intifada is needed to "change fundamentally the political dynamics here." He boasted, "They're gonna say some Palestinian [is] being too radical – well, you haven't seen radicalism yet."
