Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Hamas-linked CAIR outraged at Trump’s border wall emergency declaration

Feb 15, 2019 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

Odd thing: Hamas-linked CAIR never had any problem with Obama’s thirteen emergency declarations. Note how they try to smear Trump as racist, saying the border wall is an attempt to “make America white again,” as if trying to stop illegal immigration, and the crime and drug trafficking that come with it, were “racist.” One might almost get the idea that Hamas-linked CAIR was working at “eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within, and sabotaging its miserable house.”

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. Ayloush himself in 2017 called for the overthrow of the U.S. government.

So this denunciation is the best ad yet for the border wall.

“CAIR Condemns Trump’s Planned Border Wall Emergency Declaration as ‘Abuse of Executive Authority,'” Common Dreams, February 14, 2019:

WASHINGTON – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, tonight condemned President Trump’s planned emergency declaration to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border as an “abuse of executive authority.”

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said today that Trump will sign legislation to prevent a government shutdown while at the same time declaring a national emergency to try to build the border wall.

SEE: Trump Will Sign Spending Bill and Declare a National Emergency, Mitch McConnell Says

In response to the planned emergency declaration, CAIR said:

“CAIR condemns President Trump’s planned declaration of emergency powers to construct a border wall that is primarily motivated by an anti-immigrant ideology designed to ‘make America white again.’ Such a declaration would be an abuse of executive authority and would immediately invite legitimate constitutional and congressional challenges.

“Refugee asylum seekers, unaccompanied children or undocumented immigrants seeking work or to reunite with their families do not constitute a ‘national emergency.'”…

    Whenever the Hamas-linked Muslim Brotherhood front group, CAIR, condemns any action by President Trump, we automatically know it’s the right thing to do.

      CAIR is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood. The MB was founded in Egypt as a copy of the fascist parties of Italy and Germany and the MB was very friendly with them. We may without exaggeration think of the MB as the Nazi Party of Egypt. Since CAIR is a branch of MB, why should anyone take their word seriously on any topic? Would the Libtards listen care about what Nazis think? No? Then by the same token, they should not take seriously the claims of the EGYPTIAN NAZI PARTY.

    It must be the right decision if these co-conspirators don’t like it. death2Islam. Yes.

    Islam is double-offensive. It “takes offence” while it “continues on the offence”.

    Relentless.

    If the racist/bigot card doesn’t work….oops…nothing left but mayhem…and it’s not their fault! They were “provoked/instigated by the racists and bigots.”

    What a mess.

    In order to defeat the West, the Caucasians have to be pointed out as the “evil oppressors”…and made to feel guilt and shame based mainly on skin pigmentation issues….thereby not thinking for themselves. It’s been at work in our education and media for quite some time– featuring nothing about the founding of Islam and its horrific spread across the MIddle East, Africa, Spain, Asia Minor….etc.

    The internet still offers a FREE education….lots of great books on the subject, too.

    We have to educate ourselves as to the true ENEMIES OF FREEDOM…instead of feeling guilty because of lies and misinformation.

    The SOFTWARE is the problem….not the colour of the packaging.

    Porous borders Mexico has enabled ISIS and Al Qaeda operatives as well as jihadists of other like-minded Islamic terror entities, as Hamas, to infiltrate into the United States. Furthermore, illegal immigration from Mexico is dangerous because of crime by gangs of hooligans who enter the US through pours borders with Mexico. As for example, the gang of thugs called MS-13 who originated in El Salvador the come into America through Mexico. Those gangsters commit crimes as murders, rapes, drug dealing. They are also known, for a price, to smuggle jihadists of Al Qaeda in America.

    In addition, to all this, with illegal immigration also comes higher welfare cost and an increased chances of the spread of contagious diseases, such as TB. Furthermore, with more illegal come more environmental degradation and more urban sprawl. Therefore, there is a great need for a good for a good border control system with a strong tall wall that’s patrolled by armed American troops who may be allowed to use their guns if they deem it necessary. Along with a good filtering system to let in to the United States only good decent hard working people with visas and not and not gangsters and jihadists. In conclusion all the above may be summed up by the wisdom found in the words of Ronald Reagan when he as, so well, stated “A nation without borders is not a nation.”

    “Un-indicted” can be changed to “indicted” if they get the evidence against the perps in sufficient amounts. I think the reason the case was dropped after some of them went to prison was due to o-whats-face telling the prosecutors to drop it.
    c.a.i.r has been behaving in the same old ways since then as they were before. There just needs to be some investigating of their activities. Prosecutors could then draw up the charges against them.

    These moslim creepy creatures are making statements about the “law” that they don’t respect in hopes that pelosi and her cohorts will listen and take action. cair cannot do anything on its own to stop the president from using military funding to build a wall to keep out the riff-rraff criminals and the moslim terrorists.

    These creatures like to say “legal” stuff in the hopes of getting the uninformed to listen and believe they know what they are talking about…to put fear into those who want the wall and to encourage those who want the president to fail.

    If only they were in favor of obeying the laws they are so fond of using against freedom and never moslims.
    If they don’t want the wall, it is because they see it keeping moslims from illegally coming in. Their use of the “talking points” of those who want illegals to come in to vote is just to muddy the waters and make people think they are for all people, not just moslims.

    Ironic that CAIR would accuse Trump of being racist (he is not and no evidence exists for such a charge; he simply wants to put an end to illegal immigration as opposed to legal immigration) since for many centuries Islam was used as an instrument of Arab supremacism against other ethnicities and certainly against black Africans.

  14. James Lincoln says

    Feb 15, 2019 at 12:49 pm

    CAIR outrage is always in direct proportion to the degree of efforts used to confront Islamic Jihad.

    As I said before, the more outrage the better – it means that somebody is doing something right.

    “CAIR has witnessed an unprecedented spike in bigotry targeting American Muslims, immigrants and members of other minority groups since the election of Donald Trump as president. CAIR has repeatedly expressed concern about Islamophobic, white supremacist and racist Trump administration policies and appointments.”

    This verbiage did not include the worst scenario for muslim migrants.
    Qadaa’ al-Haajah specifies for toilet etiquette:
    it is better to enter the toilet with the left foot.
    The anus must be washed with water using the left hand after defecating. This washing is known as istinja. When leaving the toilet, one is advised to leave with the right foot,
    There are rumours that the islamophobic, white supremacist and racist Trump administration, plan to force all migrants and American muslims to use toilet paper to dry with after toilet visits in the future; for improving the personal hygiene of muslims.

    Following hard in the footsteps — “Sunnah” — of their alleged “Prophet”: curry favor with those with whom you can, thereby, enlarging your “forces,” by bringing these “allies” into your confederation.

    Then, with eyes and aim on the seat of power to be seized, with your conglomerated forces, “hide by day and march by night,” scurry, scheme, here and there, when and where need be, belly – crawling, if/when one must. Thus doing, steadily advance on the ascent to and into the heart of the said seat of power.

    Yeah, but Obama’s emergencies were about protecting, Yemen, South Sudan and the Central African Republic, not about protecting America.

    Funny!
    I haven’t meet anyone concerned about the so called; “Make American white again!” Issue.
    Or the “Keep American Christian! ” agenda either.
    We certainly don’t need any more Satan worshippers! DEPORT THESE SAVAGE NOW!

    Trump is the only one who can drain the swamp and the American people as a whole have to support them with all their might. The wall would not have been necessary if this evil religion people would have behaved themselves and not have attacked the normal citizens and would have kept themselves to the laws of the land, And so it is in Europe the same.
    Because when Islam and their Sharia take over, Islam might want to be present to see and controle if you first put your left foot first entering the toilet. Very important (sarc) But if one group would get the victory, then the real fighting will start among themselves, because they are already busy to destroy themselves, but hidden in the daytime and work at night. But it was all part of a big plan from long time ago, and CAIR does not understand anything,
    but then they are all clerics with a Dr. in front of their names, and unbelieving, but there are so many people who are saying: but those people know what they are talking about, they studied and have Dr. in front of their names.
    It is amazing. I think it is better to have a person without a so called degree, who can think logically
    then one who has studied, we all have seen, how Universities behaved, how they did away with freedom of speech. Sickening everywhere !!!
    Christianity told us how to respect and love each other, but it did not say: Be stupid.
    In every case, you have the RIGHT to defend yourself when attacked
    Islam is so smart, they never attack or murder family of Hair people or councils or government people, because they know that all hell would brake loose. Cowards on top.

    CAIR outraged!!! Good. And more to come from our courageous President Trump.
    CAIR, if you have atrace off brain, you would get out of America. You are trouble maker for all of us. You are America haters, You will never be abler to islamize America..

    Does CAIR care that Saudi Arabia built a barrier between K.S.A. and Iraq? Do they care that the Kingdom kicks out illegal overstayers from Hajj and Umrah? Do they care about fellow Muslims and Arabs from other countries that live and work in Saudi sometimes for generations but never are permitted citizenship? Do they care how poorly many third world Muslims are treated while working in K.S.A. and the Gulf States? How about the persecution of Shia in Sunni states? How about the appalling war in Yemen? Those are all their so-called fellow Muslim brothers mistreated by their hands.

    So before CAIR scolds us about our southern border, they should be reminded of the strict policies enacted in the Middle East!

    There won’t be any national emergency and Trump won’t do jack effing shit.

    There will be leftist lawsuits and federal judges perched ready to tell him he can’t do anything. The sad thing is…he’ll obey.

    It’s strange to watch a President be told by federal judges and Marxist NGO’s what he can and can’t do. So, who runs the country again?. CAIR, ISNA, SPLC, ACLU, and the whole cadre of Marxist scum are who control the country and do as they please. Oh, and they’re not elected so voting makes no difference.

    Oh, and the illegal immigrants of every stripe and color will flood in unabated. And they will feed and clothe them when they do. That’s the unfortunate reality.

    I fail to grasp this Trump worship. WTF!!!

    Eradicating and replacing the white population is exactly what they’re doing and what they want to continue.

    And they always get their way.

    If you think voting is the answer, you’re deluded. White’s are who vote primarily Republican and their numbers are dropping more and more each day. Currently at 61%. Don’t say anything or you’ll be a white supremacist. cow, cow, snivel, snivel. It’s about damn time someone wakes up.

    Republicans sure as hell aren’t worth a shit for anything, and we all know what Democrats are. So, vote for who?. vote for what?.

    There just are not enough whitie people anymore to matter, and the sad thing is they’re too kowtowed by the PC mindset and have been programmed into being ashamed of their race and themselves.

    This country is heading over a cliff; the only question remains is how are you going to weather the storm.

    • Cece says

      Feb 16, 2019 at 3:50 pm

      Throwing up your hands. Saying there’s no use. Not voting. Not becoming involved in politics, leaves the field to the leftists.
      Stand up. Express your opinions logically. Become involved in local politics. Identify political leaders that share your beliefs. There are more people who want to preserve America and it’s culture than you think.

    CAIR is strictly UN-AMERICAN and everyone one with any common sense should totally disregard their rants. You can also through the Southern Poverty Law group in with those who would destroy America for their off the wall ideas of how we should all live.
