This doesn't smell good at all

Malik Obama seems to have some pretty strong notions about the dynamics of the Middle East:

Malik Obama is Barack Obama’s half-brother, but he is close enough to the president to have been the best man at Barack and Michelle’s wedding. He has also visited the White House, and is president of the Barack H. Obama Foundation.
On the foundation's website there appears a 2010 photograph that is rather noteworthy:

The Barack H. Obama Foundation was fast-tracked to IRS tax-exempt status at the same time that the IRS was abusing numerous Tea Party and conservative groups. While those groups’ tax-exempt applications were taking two years and mountains of paperwork and invasive queries about their memberships and activities, the Barack H. Obama Foundation won its status in just 30 days. That status was back-dated 38 months, which is against the law.
The scarf is a Hamas scarf. Hamas is a designated terrorist group according to the US State Department. It has held that status since 1997.
The text on the scarf that the president’s brother is wearing in the 2010 photo reads, “‘Jerusalem is ours – WE ARE COMING!’” It also includes a map of Palestine that reads “From the river to the sea!” 

Is the Most Equal Comrade cool with this?

The family may be far-flung, but its members are still so committed to the FHer vision that they will overlook the unsavory activities of their associates

Had you ever heard of the Barack H. Obama Foundation?  Well, given its name, you're likely not surprised to learn that, even as hundreds of conservative groups got the runaround and worse from the IRS, this outfit breezed though its application for tax-exempt status.  It is actually named after BHO, Sr, the Most Equal Comrade's father.  It was founded - and is run - by Malik Obama, the MEC's half-brother.  It ostensibly exists to brign literacy and clean water to impoverished third-world villages.

Ya gotta wonder if its agenda isn't, shall we say, broader, given its ties to the genocidal regime that rules Sudan.
