Bank of America, Century21, Bloomberg, CitiBank, Merrill Lynch, J.P.Morgan Chase...what do all of these financial institutions have in common?
All of these institutions have Shariah/Islaimic compliant departments adhering to the strict standards imposed by Islamic finanical experts.
Chris Holton, Director of Outreach and Education for ACT! for America will describe the connections between funding of terrorism through these US and other international financial institutions that goes to those fighting against the very culture these institutions represent.
Since 2008, Chris has been the editor-in-chief of the Shariah Finance Watch Blog. In 2005, he was a co-author of War Footing, published by the US Naval Institute Press. Holton's work has also been published by National Review, Human Events, The American Thinker, Family Security Matters, Big Peace, World Tribune, World Net Daily, News Max, and thehayride.com.
Before joining ACT! for America, Chris worked for 10 years at Frank Gaffney's Center for Security Policy conducting research and analysis of these topics and many more. Prior to CSP, Chris was President of Blanchard and Company, a two hundred million dollar per year investment firm, and editor-in-chief of the Blanchard Economic Research Unit.
Chris will talk about
1. How Shariah/Islamic Compliant policies hurt Israel and US companies who support Israel
2. How pressure is applied to the financial institutions to set up these "Islamic Compliant Departments"
3. The conflict of interest Islamic financial advisors have that are brought inside the bank to insure compliance with Shariah law
4. Discuss the role of Middle East financial institutions who help facilitate and legitimize these departments knowing some of the profits are going toward terrorist groups.
5. Detail how US financial services are expanding the marketing of "zero-interest" Shariah finance to businesses and Muslims in the US.
Bring a banker, financial advisor or others to this unique presentation you will not hear anywhere else.
