AAH LAUNCHES SITE FOR CHRISTIAN WOMAN WHO HAD
TWO KIDS W/ MUSLIM EXTREMIST

JUDGE GRANTS CUSTODY TO THE FATHER AND GIVES HIM CONTROL
OVER CHILDREN'S RELIGIOUS UPBRINGING

(Coral Springs, FL) Americans Against Hate (AAH) has launched a website devoted to discussing the case of Rosine Ghawji, a Christian woman who married and had two children with an Islamic radical with ties to militant organizations abroad. Now, because of a judge's ruling, Rosine is about to be thrown out of her house, and her ex-husband will be made primary custodian of the children, in charge of their religious upbringing.

Rosine met Maher Ghawji, an admitted Wahhabi and member of the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood, over 20 years ago, in 1986. Soon after, they married and moved to New York City, where he would, according to Rosine, get close to Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman, the convicted spiritual leader of the group that perpetrated the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Today, Maher's brother, Haitham, is sought by the United States for his involvement with Al-Qaeda.

Over the course of their marriage, the couple had two children together. During interviews with them, the children, who say they do not want to be Muslims, informed the judge, Donna M. Fields, that their father had threatened to blow them up. According to their mother, he threatened to murder her, as well.

According to his sons, Maher Ghawji has developed an intense hatred towards Jews and would like to "get rid of all Jews." He once kicked a Jewish boy, whom Rosine was tutoring, out of their home for the simple fact that he was Jewish.

On February 28, 2007, Judge Fields issued a final decree that Rosine will be evicted from her home this coming Friday, and Maher will be given the home. Also, Maher will become primary custodian over the children, in charge of their education and religious upbringing. The children, as per the judge's orders, will be made to go on Pilgrimage (Hajj) and celebrate Ramadan with their father, against their will.

Joe Kaufman, Chairman of Americans Against Hate and author of the affidavit proving Maher Ghawji's terrorist ties, stated, "Because of Mr. Ghawji's past actions and because of past statements he has made, we have reason to believe that Judge Fields, in her ruling, has placed these children's lives at risk. We call on everyone to take interest in this case and help Rosine and her children. The war on terrorism is not just overseas."

Americans Against Hate urges all who are concerned about the wellbeing of Rosine Ghawji and her children to rally to their cause. Blog on the internet, make phone calls, spread the word, and donate what you can.
