IRS Under Obama Zooms In On Pro-Israel Groups

The administration of President Barack Obama oversees a unit that is examining non-profit groups that support Israel.

A lawsuit filed in U.S. federal district court has disclosed that the Internal Revenue Service was operating a unit assigned to examine the positions and board members of pro-Israeli non-profit groups. The unit was said to have denied tax-exempt status to at least one organization, called Z Street, on grounds that it opposed Obama's policy toward Israel.

"Z Street was informed explicitly by an IRS Agent on July 19, 2010, that approval of Z Street's application for tax-exempt status has been at least delayed, and may be denied because of a special IRS policy in place regarding organizations in any way connected with Israel," the suit, filed in U.S. district court in Philadelphia, said. "And further that the applications of many such Israel-related organizations have been assigned to 'a special unit in the D.C. office to determine whether the organization's activities contradict the administration's public policies.' "

  1. Obama a "secret Muslim"?? What a bunch of malarkey...oh, wait a minute....he's put a "special unit" in charge of organizations with "any connection" to Israel? Hmmmmm.....why would the President feel it necessary to have the IRS look into groups that support Israel?? Maybe when he was bowing to the dictator of Saudi Arabia, that tyrant passed him a note asking him to see if he could harrass these Jewish pig organizations a little....but isn't this the SAME President who just a few weeks ago told the American people that the USA will always be there for Israel? What he meant was "we will always be there looking for ways to sabotage and destroy you"....a "secret Muslim"?? I don't see any secrecy at all.
