The "Family Security Matters" website located at http://www.familysecuritymatters.org is a tool of theZionist organization known as the Center for Security Policy.

From Sourcewatch:

Family Security Matters (FSM) originated in 2003 as a project of the Center for Security Policy, a hawkish security policy think tank and advocacy group. Soon after its formation FSM claimed to represent "security moms". While generally supportive of President George W. Bush's domestic and international security policies, FSM have had their differences with the Republican administration over issues such as immigration policy[1], U.S. policy towards Russian Presdient Vladimir Putin[2]. Since the Democratic ascendancy in the 2006 mid-term elections, FSM have also published criticisms of the Bush administration -- such as those by Newt Gingrich -- for being too cautious in their strategy in the Middle East.[3]

FSM states on its website that its mission is to "inform all Americans, men and women, about the issues surrounding national security; to address their fears about safety and security on a personal, family, community, national and international level; to highlight the connection between individual safety and a strong national defense; to increase civic participation and political responsibility; and to empower all Americans to become proactive defenders of our national security and community safety." [4]

According to whois.com, the domain name for FSM's website was registered by Carol Taber of CAT & Associates on July 6, 2003. On its website the following year, Gay Bryant, the Editorial Director of The Family Security Group, described FSM as a "non-profit, nonpartisan communications initiative formed by a group of passionate women." [5]

Bryant also explained that "a year ago we formed an alliance with the Center for Security Policy, www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org, a prestigious nonpartisan Washington think tank whose aim is to promote world peace through American strength. This association gives us access to vital security information from inside the heart of Washington, D.C." It role, it stated, was to "build grassroots efforts and resources for making the Security Mom's voice heard in the White House and on Capitol Hill." [5]

In an August 2004 media release, the Center for Security Policy announced the partnership between FSM and has the Center's DivestTerror.org campaign, aimed at pressuring 400 public companies which it claimed "are providing revenues, technology and moral cover to governments that sponsor terrorism." [8]

However, in its next annual report, CSP did not mention FSM.

Following an appearance on Fox News in September 2004, Media Matters for America (MMA) described Family Security Matters as a "front group for the Center for Security Policy (CSP), a conservative Washington think tank". In support of it claim, MMA pointed out that the phone number listed on the FSM website at the time was answered by the CSP.) [9]

The Center for Security Policy's annual return for 2004 listed "Family Security Group, LLC" on its "other investments" schedule with the company being valued at $75,999. On a subsequent schedule listing "taxable subsidiaries: the Center listed the "Family Security Group, LLC" which it listed it as having a 51% interest in with its activities described as "national security awareness". The company was listed as having made a loss of $34,001.<refname="IRS 2004">Center for Security Policy, Form 990 2004, Statement 8, August 2006, page 20.</ref>The following year the Center listed the value of the Family Security Group LLC as being $115,764.[12] Later in its return the center indicated that the company had made a loss of $58,835 for the year.[13]

FSM's IRS return for the period of October 18,2005 to the end of December that year provided no financial details as the group income for the period was under $25,000 threshold for disclosure of financial details. The IRS return lists Carol Tabor as the President. The organization's address and phone number is not disclosed. However, Guidestar lists the foundation's address as 2020 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 298 Washington, DC 2006.[11]

Who or What is the Center for Security Policy?

From Sourcewatch:

Center for Security Policy was founded in 1988 and states that it operates as a "non-profit, non-partisan organization committed to the time-tested philosophy of promoting international peace through American strength." [1]

According to their web site, "The Center specializes in the rapid preparation and real-time dissemination of information, analyses and policy recommendations via e-mail distribution; computerized fax; its exciting, redesigned Web site; published articles; and the electronic media. The principal audience for such materials is the U.S. security policy-making community (the executive and legislative branches, the armed forces and appropriate independent agencies), corresponding organizations in key foreign governments, the press (domestic and international), the global business and financial community and interested individuals in the public at large." [1]

A very influential organization with the Center for Security Policy is the Center's National Security Advisory Council, whose members hold senior positions with the Bush administration.

Center for Security Policy has strong ties with the Republican Party with many members serving senior posts in the Reagan administration and George W. Bush administration. Donald Rumsfeld, currect Secretary of Defense under Bush, is a receipient of the the Center's Keeper of the Flame Award. The Center is not shy in touting its strong ties with the U.S. Government.

..."While CSP boasts an impressive advisory list of hawkish luminaries, its star is Frank Gaffney, its founder, president and CEO."
..."Gaffney and CSP's prescriptions for national security have been fairly simple: Gut all arms control treaties, push ahead with weapons systems virtually everyone agrees should be killed, give no quarter to the Palestinians and, most important, go full steam ahead on just about every national missile defense program."
..."Looking at the center's affiliates, it's not hard to see why: Not only are makers of the Osprey (Boeing) well represented on the CSP's board of advisers but so too is Lockheed Martin (by vice president for space and strategic missiles Charles Kupperman and director of defense systems Douglas Graham). Former TRW executive Amoretta Hoeber is also a CSP adviser, as is former Congressman and Raytheon lobbyist Robert Livingston. Ball Aerospace & Technologies -- a major manufacturer of NASA and Pentagon satellites -- is represented by former Navy Secretary John Lehman, while missile-defense computer systems maker Hewlett-Packard is represented by George Keyworth, who is on its board of directors. And the Congressional Missile Defense Caucus and Osprey (or "tilt rotor") caucus are represented by Representative Curt Weldon and Senator Jon Kyl." [3]
