CAIR Proud of Its Media Influence
Posted by The MaryHunter at November 14, 2009 7:58 PM
The Council on American-Islamic Relations boasts of how it was out front in condemning the Ft. Hood terrorist massacre:
In a fundraising letter, CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad told potential donors that within hours of the attack by a Muslim Army major, the Washington, D.C.-based group issued a statement of condemnation to thousands of local, national and international media outlets.
"Perhaps you saw CAIR spokespeople interviewed on MSNBC's Hardball or on PBS's NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, CNN, MSNBC, or the BBC," Awad writes. "Or maybe you read CAIR quotes in the Washington Post, New York Times, Christian Science Monitor, or USA Today."
"Our tone and immediate response is paying off," Awad said in the fundraising appeal. "Major media acknowledged the strong statement that American Muslims issued condemning the Fort Hood attack. On CNN, Anderson Cooper reported that CAIR 'reacted to the shooting spree, condemning the attack in the strongest terms possible.' On MSNBC's 'Hardball,' Chris Matthews noted that CAIR was 'quick to condemn the massacre.'"
Proud as punch they are, it seems.
But wait, wasn't CAIR named in 2008 as an unindicted co-conspirator in what amounted to the largest terrorism-finance case in U.S. history? And isn't there FBI evidence that Awad himself has direct ties to Hamas, indeed, one of the top Hamas operatives in the US?
Oh yea, it's that CAIR. Just in October, a new book came out with details:
D.C.-based Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, is not the beneficent Muslim civil-rights group it claims to be. Indisputable evidence now demonstrates CAIR and other "mainstream" Islamic groups are acting as fronts for a well-funded conspiracy of the Muslim Brotherhood – the parent of al-Qaida and Hamas – to infiltrate and destroy the American system.
And aren't CAIR leaders including their communications director Ibrahim Hooper, on record as wanting America to become a Muslim country?
"I wouldn't want to create the impression that I wouldn't like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future," Hooper told the Minneapolis Star Tribune in 1993. "But I'm not going to do anything violent to promote that. I'm going to do it through education."
Whew, I'm glad we have that all straight. Then again, perhaps another Muslim public relations group the State-Run Media should consider listening to is Muslims Against Sharia.
On a tip from SK.
Comments
I know a little bit about that which I speak, and I assure you that Moslems have "long eyes". Unlike the instant gratification and short attention span we seem to have developed here, the Moslem will work, wait, persevere...patient in the knowledge that he will never give up and Allah will triumph. Will it take a hundred years? FIVE hundred? Whatever the will of Allah deems appropriate.
Also, remember that to a devout Moslem, you are sub-human. An untruth told to you is not a lie or a sin, since you are an Infidel.
Groups like CAIR are playing us for idiots with their half-hearted "condemnations" and statements. Look who they support. Listen to what they say when the Dhimmi's aren't listening. We are total suckers if we fall for this crap. They want the world to be 100% Moslem, and will never give up until they achieve their goal.

"A team of Midwestern businessmen, including the former CIA station chief in Beijing, has recently established, in cooperation with the Department of Homeland Security, a special zone in Wisconsin that would grant U.S. citizenship in exchange for a $1 million investment."

Thanks Anon, sounds devious, something to look into. It goes on:
Meanwhile, in a state that has lost more than 160,000 (or one-third) of its manufacturing jobs in a decade, local newspapers have been running editorials praising the People's Republic and blasting those who oppose closer trade ties or Chinese investment. "China is a friend to Wisconsin and its businesses, not an enemy in a trade war," the Wisconsin State Journal said in an editorial.
Kinda pathetic.
But let's stay on topic please.

Amazing, Anon. Absolutely amazing. Not the least amazing part of which is that MSNBC runs the drawing of Obama in a Mao hat with a red star...and no one even thinks twice about it.
Imagine Reagan visiting Germany, being shown with a curl of hair over his forehead, a Chaplin-esque mustache and a swastika arm-band.

Eric Holder is speaking at CAIR Conference in Detroit this coming week...and to make worse, the FBI is also co-sponsoring the event (even though they SAY they have severed all ties with CAIR). This was "announced" in a November 10 Politico story.

There are those who say, "COLT trumps CAIR."

They should be proud. Muslims and Arabs are being oppressed, tortured and even murdered in this country, Britain and especially Israel.
They deserve to have a voice that rises above the din of racist, xenophobic right wing lunatics.
