You'll remember (heck, it's still here on the front page) the kerfuffle over the Florida Presbyterian-run campground known as "Cedarkirk" and their hosting of a camp run by the Muslim American Society. Here are the relevant posts: Presbyterian Campground to Host Jihad Camp, Puff piece on the MAS, and Still not asking questions in Florida - Updated. Also see Joe Kaufman's piece that started it all: New Year's Jihad Retreat.
Well, worry not for the much-maligned and worried over Brother Mazen Mokhtar and the MAS (see Kaufman's piece for background on Mokhtar, and this piece by Daveed Gartenstein-Ross for background on the MAS), they're still going strong, this time with a weekend retreat planned for February 17-19, at a YMCA camp in Beckett, Massachusetts.
The rest of the guest-speaker list, if any, isn't listed. No blaming the Presbyterians this time.
Please note that nothing hurts the...what do you want to call it..."anti-Jihad" movement more than people going off like idiots and threatening anyone, so don't do it. I post this because it's a currently relevant topic and a demonstration of how groups with seriously questionable roots still operate openly and smoothly without any questions asked. Draw your own implications.
