New in PJ Media: Friday was a day that ended in a “y,” and so it was another occasion for leftist virtue-signaling. Old Joe Biden’s ghostwriter wrote on X: “On the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, we recognize the hate that Muslims face because of their beliefs and the ugly resurgence of Islamophobia following the war in […]
Hamas-linked CAIR defends its decision to promote a disproven ‘anti-Muslim hate crime’
I predicted this (anyone could have) on November 18: “Is the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) now going to retract and apologize? Not on your life. The lie has served its purpose; there are still multitudes all over who believe it and will never hear the real story.” An update on this story. “CAIR Defends […]
Hamas-linked CAIR calls on Biden to ‘condemn, intervene’ to stop Israel’s ‘war crimes’
An article in the Jerusalem Post provides numerous reasons why the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) isn’t credible. Yet far too many mainstream media outlets allow CAIR to spread its propaganda, despite the fact that this unsavory organization was designated a Hamas-linked, unindicted conspirator in America’s largest terrorism funding trial, that of the Holy Land Foundation. […]
North Carolina: Hamas-linked CAIR played role in getting legal charges brought against phone pranksters
On June 6, Spartanburg, South Carolina police arrested and charged two teenagers with threatening the Islamic Center of Charlotte; the teens said “I will blow you harder than 9/11.” The public has heard only a snippet of the phone call. So we are primarily relying on the reactions of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations, while […]
Hamas-Linked CAIR Blames Hindu Mob For Attack On Muslim Couple; Attackers Turn Out to Be Muslim
The Communications Director of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the egregious Ibrahim Hooper, that figure of fun, got his knickers in a twist over a mob attack in distant Karnataka, India. Hooper believed the mob attack had been unleashed by Hindus – guilty of Hindutva (Hindu Nationalism) and “Islamophobia” – on a Muslim couple […]
CAIR and the Dhimmitude of America
During the news cycle for the New Mexico murders, TV stations either featured or mentioned the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) 20 times in four days. When CAIR reps appeared in person on a broadcast, they bloviated by launching “an army of phrases” over the landscape, carefully avoiding any actual ideas. They revealed no information, […]
CAIR: Love for Jesus Unites Christians and Muslims at Christmas Time
On December 15, 2021, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) re-released an op-ed titled “Love for Jesus Can Bring Christians and Muslims Together.”[1] This op-ed was written by Ibrahim Hooper, CAIR’s current National Communications Director, and for a number of years it has been released annually before Christmas. Hooper wrote: As forces of hate […]
Why Does CAIR Want to Ban Sale of the Confederate Flag?
My latest in PJ Media: The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) weighed in Saturday on the Confederate flag controversy, calling for the banning of the offending ensign at the Lorain County Fair in Wellington, Ohio. But why would an Islamic advocacy group that doesn’t even consider itself American at all (hence the hyphenated “American-Islamic” […]
Hamas-linked CAIR’s Ibrahim Hooper refuses to prove CAIR’s claim to be “nation’s largest Muslim civil rights” group
Jihad Watch reader Mark Spahn recently had an interesting email exchange with Ibrahim Hooper, the Communications Director of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Note, aside from the hilarity of the whole thing, Hooper’s evasiveness, defensiveness, rudeness, and refusal to answer questions — traits we have seen so very many times from him and […]
Despite its focus on “hate speech,” Hamas-linked CAIR refuses comment on U.S. imams’ calls to kill Jews
For Hamas-linked CAIR, the concept of “hate speech” is just a weapon it uses to marginalize and silence those whom it hates. It doesn’t really have any concern for incitement to violence against people, or else it would be speaking out strongly against these imams. But of course, the staff of Hamas-linked CAIR knows that […]
