Thanks to all the good people at @CAIR_Columbus for their invitation to this great event! As in the spring, and so now again, @MikeDeWine’s absence was noticeable and disrespectful of Ohio’s diverse communities. https://t.co/NobWadkFd5

The Left’s normalizing of the Council on American-Islamic Relations is a principal sign of the myopia and short-sightedness of our age. And the Right is just as culpable, by never making this an issue. Cordray is rebuking DeWine for not showing up; DeWine should be rebuking Cordray for showing up. Cordray’s appearance at this CAIR event should be an issue, a scandal, an outrage. But DeWine almost certainly will not do this. And why not?
Cordray should have refused CAIR’s invitation and called on the others to do so. CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case — so named by the Justice Department. CAIR officials have repeatedly refused to denounce Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist groups. Several former CAIR officials have been convicted of various crimes related to jihad terror. CAIR’s cofounder and longtime Board chairman (Omar Ahmad), as well as its chief spokesman (Ibrahim Hooper), have made Islamic supremacist statements about how Islamic law should be imposed in the U.S. (Ahmad denies this, but the original reporter stands by her story.) CAIR chapters frequently distribute pamphlets telling Muslims not to cooperate with law enforcement. CAIR has opposed virtually every anti-terror measure that has been proposed or implemented and has been declared a terror organization by the United Arab Emirates. A CAIR operative recently called for the overthrow of the U.S. government.
And all that is apparently fine with Richard Cordray.
marty says
CAIR is a spin-off of the muslim brotherhood, a global terrorist gang. Only dhimmicrats would want to be assoicated with a group of sociopaths who want to bring sharia law to the United States.
PRCS says
“Only dhimmicrats” I wish that were true, Marty.
Andy says
I don’t care about CAIR.
Geoffrey Britain says
but they care about you… convert, submit or die. That’s your choice.
Andy says
My choice is to FIGHT & ALL Patriots of every Judeo-Christian Heritage Lands should do the same!
jihad3tracker says
Everyone reading this — Please fins 5 minutes in your busy lives to email this ignorant Dem and (politely) but thoroughly shred his illusion about CAIR and Islam’s violent essence.
Berengaria says
Shouldn’t Ohio’s Diverse Communities Strive to become
American Communities?
America’s Greatness was built on INDIVIDUALS NOT GROUPS.
The Muslim GROUP, run by CAIR, should not even be allowed to participate in our Elections. The Muslim “Book”,Koran explains that their Mission is to subjugate, NOT to Assimilate. Whether you are in Ohio or Florida, the MUSLIM GROUP should Not be Allowed to overthrow the Constitution of the United States of America.
somehistory says
More of the prophesied bowing to the “wild beast” in order to get the “mark” and be allowed to “buy and sell.”
Emilie Green says
Richard Cordray.
Of course he’s a Democrat and a member of the Deep State. For those who don’t remember he’s a pal of Eliz Warren, senator from Mass, who got him appointed to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Warren pushed and pushed for this new government bureaucracy The CFPB is nothing more than a big government bauble which makes trouble and enlarges government, skills at which Democrats shine.
Though Trump won the state, Ohio’s an iffy, so it’s hard to say if they’ll go lefty for this D for governor.
Halal Bacon says
CAIR and diversity in the same sentence? What does shitslam say about diversity, kinda like Pokemon, gotta kill them all(infidels)
WPM says
Would a candidate running for office meet with leaders of the KKK or the American Nazi party? No I do not think so ,would they meet with the other know groups that pushing and supporting terror in the United States or other places in the world? Other groups that have a supremist agenda of world domination ?Other groups that want replace our laws with Sharia Jim Crow type laws applied to non-Moslem??Appease a supremist beast does encourages it to take more.
No Muzzies Here says
There is no way to have an intelligent conversation with someone who says “the good people at CAIR.”
This is just more proof that the left has aligned itself with Muslims in order to get their votes. This alignment requires more than words. It forces the politician to overlook all crimes committed by their new backers, and to come out in full force against anyone who complains about those crimes.

These dhimmiprogs will be remember when the time comes to deal with collaborators.

Ohio Buckeyes…land of worthless nuts. Yeah, I have relatives in Ohio and yeah, not all people in Ohio are crazy. Just too many of them.

Quote: “CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case — so named by the Justice Department. CAIR officials have repeatedly refused to denounce Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist groups.”
That says it all.
Rarely says
I’ve heard it said that “95% of the lawyers give all the rest a bad name”. I think the percentage is even higher with politicians.
They DO know better but they’ll go to bed with anyone or anything if it will help them get elected.
Rarely says
It’s hard to find people of integrity and vision among politicians today but, then again, they always have been pretty rare.
Whether you liked his politics or not I think the U.S. lost one such man a few days ago in John McCain.
Geoffrey Britain says
Think again.

It looks like the “CAIR Bears” are at it again. (not to be confused with the good infidels we call Care Bears)

Ohio: Democrat gubernatorial candidate rebukes Republican candidate for skipping Hamas-linked CAIR event
……………….
Grotesque. Kudos to Mile DeWine for skipping this Taqiyya fest.
gravenimage says
Oops–Mike DeWine.
MrLogical says
Seems that Cordray wasn’t content with screwing up the CFPB circus he presided over – now he wants to ruin the entire state of Ohio and fill it with Mosques and shiftless Muzzy ingrates on welfare.
Hopefully, Ohioans will be smart enough to kick this Islamophile to the curb in November.
Sam says
It is so disgusting these clueless liberals enable Islam and believe that they have the moral high ground compared to freedom loving conservatives who understand what a sick cult Islam is.
We must find a better way of fighting these liberals as they will never get what islam is all about even if their neck is cut off by their friendly jihadis.
How disgusting these liberals can be by being clueless or knowingly.
