Now, courtesy a very important new book, the full extent of the CAIR thugs' war on free speech is coming to light. "CAIR spent $160,000 to silence Savage: New book reveals memos behind campaign to run radio star off the air," by Art Moore for WorldNetDaily, October 14 (thanks to all who sent this in):
An explosive new book based on a daring six-month undercover operation exposing the subversive agenda of the Council on American-Islamic Relations reveals the Muslim group spent $160,000 in an unsuccessful effort to run top-rated nationally syndicated radio host Michael Savage off the air.
Internal CAIR documents uncovered in "Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America" show that despite its high cost and the continued success of Savage's show, CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad believed the campaign was "worth every penny," because, he says, the radio star lost at least $1 million in advertising.
Authors P. David Gaubatz and Paul Sperry recount how CAIR ran out of money before it could crack Savage's most loyal sponsors.
As WND reported, Savage sued CAIR in December 2007, two months after the Muslim lobby group began urging "people of all faiths" to contact Savage's advertisers to protest "anti-Muslim bigotry" on the air. CAIR cited Savage calling the Quran "a throwback document" and "a book of hate" and demanding CAIR be thrown out of the country for promulgating it.
Savage's copyright infringement and RICO lawsuit alleged CAIR illegally published singled-out quotes and audio excerpts from the show regarding Islam, misappropriated his words and used the clips for its own fundraising purposes, damaging the value of his copyrighted material. Judge Susan Illston of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California dismissed the case, determining CAIR had a legal right to use excerpts of a public broadcast for purposes of comment and criticism. But Illston ruled in Savage's favor when CAIR attempted to extract attorneys fees. Savage declared Illston's November 2008 decision a "huge victory for me, personally, but also for the rest of America who is afraid of this lawsuit-happy group of intimidators."...
I suspect they paid more....
According to a Washington attorney, "it is a federal and state crime to participate in the destruction of evidence of a crime if reasonable suspicion exists the documents are evidence of criminal activity."
(from article)
This wonderful undercover operation has constructed a great foundation for hanging CAIR and it seems Ibe Hooper showed much affection for the undercover agent. Thus, the criminal activity is verified as coming from the top and not just some "misunderstanders" who were operating on the fringes of the organization. It would be great Glen Beck fodder to nourish a story that could be bigger than ACORN. Lets look for these courageous men to be interviewed nationally and have this institutional jihad exposed.

They did shut him up, didn't they?
The ends justify the means.
The irony is that they do it with the same petro-dollars we pay the Saudis for the oil.
Recycling takes on a whole new meaning like that, doesn't it?
Has anyone seen a story from the DAILY TELEGRAPH titled
'Camp David chaplain denounces Islam'?The chaplain's name is
Carey Cash and he has denounced Islam as 'a faith with a
predisposition to violence.'
Telegraph Story
Shame it's buried under a headline stating he's the nephew of Johnny Cash.
....the Rev Cash states that "extremist manifestations, such as the actions of suicide bombers and crazed gunmen, don't arise out of thin air". Rather: "They are part of a religious tradition that from its very birth has used the edge of the sword as a means to convert or conquer those with different religious convictions."
