Florida hotel no longer hosts Muslim conference
A hotel in Fort Lauderdale wisely stopped hosting a Muslim conference that was supporting the Hamas:
Update: here's more on the subject from Joe Kaufman.
After the Middle East Forum charged that the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Coral Springs Hotel & Convention Center was to host a Jan. 12-13 event of the “region’s most extreme alliance of Islamist organizations,” the hotel canceled its contract with the South Florida Muslim Federation. [...]It's very fortunate action was taken by more than just the ME Forum. This kind of falsehood-pushing propaganda the Islamist organizations in the area were planning does not belong in sane society.
Middle East Forum stated that its article “galvanized residents in Parkland and Coral Springs to take a stand and launch a petition.”
“Business leaders and public officials threatened to terminate their relationships with the Marriott if the event proceeded as scheduled,” it said. “These pressures convinced the hotel to rescind its contract.”
The group’s “leaders and speakers responded to the Oct. 7 massacre of Israeli civilians by voicing support for Hamas and promoting ‘resistance in all its forms’ against Israel,” per the Middle East Forum.
“The event was to feature a ‘Gaza’ poetry contest and a youth seminar titled ‘Finding Hope from Our Past,’ which focused on the Islamic ‘conquests … of Jerusalem,’” it added.
