Joe Kaufman is the Chairman of Americans Against Hate, the founder of CAIR Watch, the founder of Young Zionists, and an investigative journalist for FrontPage Magazine, a publication of the David Horowitz Freedom Center.
In September 2003, Joe was invited by Florida Speaker of the House Johnnie Byrd to give expert testimony in front of law enforcement and government representatives at a forum on terrorism and homeland security held in Punta Gorda, Florida.
Amongst other accomplishments, in April 2003, Joe was responsible for the Hamas-affiliated charity, the Health Resource Center for Palestine (HRCP), being shut down in the state of Florida, and in December 2006, Joe convinced U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer to rescind an award her office had given to a leader of the Hamas-related Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
In June 2009, Joe won a lawsuit brought against him by seven Dallas-area radical Muslim groups, which included the Muslim American Society (MAS) and three Islamic centers owned by the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), an organization named by the U.S. Justice Department as a party to the financing of millions of dollars to Hamas. The lawsuit, which lasted more than two years, was filed to stop Joe from speaking out about the ties of the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) to the funding of terrorist groups overseas. The defense of the suit was supported by the David Horowitz Freedom Center, Daniel Pipes and the Middle East Forum’s Legal Project, the Thomas More Law Center, and Steven Emerson, amongst others. The case was a landmark decision for web-based journalists and those exposing individuals and groups connected to terrorism.
Joe has spoken at the conferences of the Middle East Forum, the Intelligence Summit, America's Truth Forum and Hadassah, and he was the keynote speaker for Islamofascism Awareness Week at UCLA in October 2007 and a guest of honor at the Horowitz Freedom Center’s 2009 Restoration Weekend. Joe has given a number of lectures at universities, including the University of Miami and Washington University in St. Louis, and he has held meetings with key government executives and representatives from various intelligence agencies. Joe has been featured on Fox News, CNN and MSNBC and has appeared on numerous local and national television and radio talk shows.
