Are you inferring that a meeting like this would never  be held during the current administrations term???

The Treasury Department held its first seminar on Islamic finance in April 2002, when then undersecretary for international affairs John Taylor told the meeting, “we have had a growing interest in Islamic finance because of its rapid growth and significant presence in many partners of the United States such as Bahrain, Egypt, Indonesia, Kuwait, Malaysia and Pakistan.”
 
Speaking seven months after 9/11, Taylor also said it was crucial to ensure that legitimate Islamic banks, services and charities were not exploited by terrorists.
 
The 2002 seminar took place after then-Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill attended a meeting in Bahrain where participants described the philosophy behind Islamic finance. Taylor said the American officials had left that meeting “with a sense of what Islamic finance really is” and decided to host the seminar in the U.S. “to ‘demystify’ Islamic banking for our colleagues in Washington.”
 
Later that year, O’Neill’s successor, Secretary John Snow, and Taylor attended an International Islamic Finance Conference in Dubai.
 
Two years later, Taylor in a speech at an Islamic finance forum at Harvard that the topic was “very important to us in the Bush Administration.” He also announced a new Islamic finance scholar-in-residence program, naming Mahmoud El-Gamal of Rice University to the position.

  I'm not "inferring" anything..I'm just warning that things can only get worse than that ! Crusty; you had better read some of the writings of B. Hussein Obama's heroes...Wm Ayers and Sol Alinsky & frank Marshall Davis for starters. Perhaps you may want tyo get some of Rev Jeremiah Wright's sermons.
   As far as our freedom to discuss here on the internet, beware the coming "internet security force"...Obie hasn't cancelled his big internet network. They can just as easily be used as spies or website jammers...watch for it !

    Frank Marshall Davis is hailed in Obama's books as Obama's "mentor":
