Terror Ties at Inaugural Prayer Service?

One of the people scheduled to speak at an inaugural prayer service taking place Wednesday in Washington has ties to a terrorist group, according to federal prosecutors. Ingrid Mattson leads the Islamic Society of North American and spoke at a prayer service at the Democratic National Convention this past year. But Associated Press is reporting that law enforcement officials in Dallas have filed court documents that tie the Islamic Society to the terrorist organization Hamas, though no charges have been filed. The Islamic Society of North American denies it has connections to Hamas and says it does not condone terrorism.
