You might find the following Wikipedia account of Rep. Anthony Weiner(D-NY) and his Muslim wife interesting. So, we have a Jewish guy (who says of his family, "We weren’t a very religious household, but we had a very strong sense of our Judaism.") married to a Muslim...who is a personal aide to Hillary Clinton (OUR SECRETARY OF STATE!) Her parents
were both Muslims and her mother, born in Pakistan, now teaches in Saudi Arabia.
Does that make anyone just a tiny bit uncomfortable?
Huma Mahmood Abedin (Urdu: هما محمود عابدين) (born 1976) is an aide to United States Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton[1]who served as traveling chief of staff and "body woman" during Clinton's campaign for the Democratic nomination in the 2008 presidential election.[2][3]
Abedin, an American of South Asian descent, was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Her father was an Indian-born Middle Eastern scholar who died when she was 17 years old, and her
Pakistani-born mother, Saleha Mahmood Abedin, PhD, is an associate professor of sociology at Dar Al-Hekma College in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.[4][1] At the age of two, her family relocated to Jeddah. Abedin returned to the United States at approximately age 18 to attend George Washington University.
Abedin began working as a 20 year old intern for the White House in 1996 and landed an assignment with then First Lady Hillary Clinton. She currently works for Hillary Clinton at the U.S. State Department.[5]
Personal life
Abedin married Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY) on Saturday, July 10, 2010.[6]
Former President Bill Clinton presided at the wedding, which took place at the Oheka Castle in Huntington, New York on Long Island.[7]
Abedin is a practicing Muslim and is an Arabic speaker.[8][9][10][11]
In June 2011, less than a year after her wedding to Weiner, Abedin became the subject of widespread media attention amidst her husband's Twitter photo scandal in which he admitted he had engaged in sexually charged exchanges with "about six women" over the Internet during the past three years. In the press conference admitting the sexual liaisons,
Weiner said he had revealed his online relationships to his wife before their marriage.'
Regarding the new revelations, Weiner said, "She was very unhappy, she was very disappointed, and she told me as much. And she also told me that she loved me and we're going to get through this."[12] On June 8, 2011, several days into the scandal, the New York
Times reported that Abedin was in "the early stages of pregnancy."[1]
Comments to the previous information -- 6.8.11
This is very disturbing information based upon the fact that a Congressman is often privy to government secrets. I wonder if his “impulse control” problem causes him to spill such secrets to his Muslim wife, who also is privy to confidential information at the State Department’s top level. -- Donna Garner
How does a 20 year old Indian/Pakisani born in Michigan but raised in Saudi Arabia clear Secret Service hurdles to be able to work that closely with the President and First Lady?
Then she becomes utterly indispensible, yet strangely out of the spotlight, while at the same time posing for fashion magazines? Questions about how she is living a life-style WAY WAY above her pay grade (usually the biggest red flag in government counter-intelligence circles)
and now she is married to and having a child with someone who until this week was the far left attack dog darling of the Democrat Party, a probable for the 2013 NYC mayor race and therefore a possible candidate for the White House in 2016 and beyond. Hollywood would reject this script as too obvious. There have been... 2007 -- allegations of improper relationship between Hillary and Abedin. 2007 --allegations of improper payments to Abedin from Hillary’s office and her campaign (essentially the same thing Jane Orie is on trial for – Hillary’s government paid office staff was also her campaign staff and for example one staffer was being paid $28k per year by the federal gov’t and $28k by her campaign at the same time they did an interview about how working “on the hill for Hillary was a 24 hour/7 day a week commitment”). 2007 -- questions about her father’s connections to the Saudi government (an Indian born professor from Kalamazoo, MI moving to Saudi Arabia and immediately starting a foundation at the same time the Saudi gov’t was fronting such foundations to the tune of over $2B). 2008 -- questions of where Abedin got the money for her $659k condo and her designer clothing given her pay $9,999.96 per quarter (did you know that $10,000 is a magical bank threshhold).

According to a friend, her favorite designers are Mr. de la Renta, Catherine Malandrino,
Charles Nolan and Prada. "And she has a weakness for Marc Jacobs bags," said the friend.
"She is known for her bags."
Robert Barnett, the Clintons' longtime attorney, said that in 11 years of knowing her,
he has never seen her wear the same outfit twice. "She is also gorgeous and the most
terrifically dressed young woman you will ever encounter."
Dar Al-Hekma College is a unique, four-year college, built upon a strong and stable foundation of Islamic faith, Islamic wisdom,
academic excellence and intellectual curiosity. In September, 1999, Dar Al-Hekma College opened its doors to its first freshmen
Comments from on-line blogs:
The very fact that she (Huma) spent 15 or 16 years in Saudi Arabia [from roughly the age of 2,
until roughly the age of 18], and then showed up in the Clinton Whitehouse, as an intern,
in 1996, at roughly the age of 21, is, in and of itself, a massive security breach. That she then
spent another five years in the Clinton Whitehouse, and, for most of the last seven years,
has been wedded at the hip to Mrs. Clinton, night and day.
And even if it wasn't an "unthinkable compromise of national security" on Monday, September
10, 2001, it damned sure became an unthinkable compromise of national security on Tuesday,
"If you call Hillary's residence in DC first thing in the morning, Huma answers the phone,"
according to a Justice Department official. "Same thing late at night and on the road.
It's a closely guarded secret that Hillary's inner circle guards at all costs."
never married, and living on a clerical salary, in one of the most expensive cities in America,
afford to "never... wear the same outfit twice"?
Much less purchase from the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Catherine Malandrino, Charles Nolan,
Prada, and Marc Jacobs? Not to mention Yves Saint Laurent?
How does the child of two university professors [one of them deceased], who is single, never
married, and living on a clerical salary, in one of the most expensive cities in America, afford
to have an "apartment in the vicinity of 12th and U streets"?
What would such an apartment cost? $500,000? $750,000? $1,000,000?
Where is she getting that kind of money? Who is the co-signor on her loan?
