Istanbul-Born Suspect Had Top Security Clearance at the Joint Warfare Analysis Center

If Some Two Million ‘Got-Aways’ Crossed Since 2021, Suspected Terrorists on the FBI Watch List Are Almost Certainly Among Them

PHILADELPHIA – August 20, 2024 – A member of Maryland’s “Commission on Hate Crimes Response and Prevention” is out of a job. Ayman Nassar, the second Islamist commissioner to get tossed from the hate crimes board within three months, resigned on August 19 amid public outrage over his role in terror-linked organizations and his history of anti-American, antisemitic, and homophobic hate speech.

Nassar has accused Israel of harvesting the organs of living Palestinians and shared posts referring to Gaza as a “Holocaust.” He is chairman of the Aafia Foundation, a “terrorist support group” that seeks to free “Lady Al Qaeda” Aafia Siddiqui and other convicted terrorists from prison.

Working through the Pakistani Consulate in Washington, D.C., the Iranian government recruited dozens of activists to operate more than 30 voting stations at hotels, mosques, churches, a California film studio—and even a car dealership in Maryland—as part of an election to choose the replacement for Iranian President Ephraim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash in May.
