This latest broadcast about CAIR’s Muslim Culture fest has the TV station KXAN in Austin, Texas eating out of the hand of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
“A lot of great food there,” says news anchor Mike Rush. The problem with this broadcast is not CAIR serving food. It is that there is no context. If CAIR were an organization that just threw parties, that would be great. But of course, the reality is much different.
Six years ago, this same station, KXAN, ran a segment which had CAIR’s San Antonio executive director Sarwat Husain in high dudgeon about the Muslim Brotherhood receiving criticism. The Brotherhood is an insurgency wherever they are, and got kicked out of its home country, Egypt, in one of the largest popular protests in recorded history. It was its support for the Brotherhood that was one reason that CAIR was designated as a terrorist group in the U.A.E. CAIR feigned surprise at this designation, calling it “bizarre.”
Also, here is a CAIR rep upset that someone was criticizing the terror organization, Hamas.
Again, here is the head of CAIR, Nihad Awad, referring to Israel as the occupation, while CAIR’s Deputy Executive Director, Edward Ahmed Mitchell, refers to Hamas as a foreign organization.
Just a few weeks ago, CAIR was defending a deadly terrorist organization, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, on social media.
The fact that a Texas TV station such as KXAN would be promoting CAIR is dismaying. Because the same man beaming with pride over his culture fest is the same Faizan Syed who stood outside the prison that is holding Aafia Siddiqui, shouting into a bullhorn “Let her go!”
Why is CAIR trying to free an al Qaeda agent? Why are they partnering with pro-Taliban organizations such as the Aafia Foundation? Why has there been no follow-up on CAIR’s role in what was an international news story live streamed on social media?
Then there are the sponsors of CAIR’s food fest. Guidance Residential is a company that allows Muslims to use Sharia finance to purchase homes. The Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America (AMJA) endorses them. And in turn, Guidance sponsors AMJA conferences. James Simpson writes at Capital Research:
According to Islam Expert, former DHS investigator Philip Haney, “The current AMJA leadership structure includes six members of the Leadership Council (aka Majlis Al-Shura, or the Shura Council), nearly all of whom are graduates of Al-Azhar University in Cairo, plus eight Scholars, 46 Experts and 41 Members. Combined together, this roster of 100 Islamic scholars is a Who’s Who of prominent Muslim Brotherhood leaders and Salafi Muslims affiliated with the Global Islamic Movement.””
No. I don’t want fries with that.
All the network affiliates are continuing to sell us the idea that CAIR is something legitimate, authoritative, benign, and appetizing.
But at this point, it is just too much to swallow.
PRCS says
“The rich diversity of the American Muslim community” includes some members of that club CAIR doesn’t want to talk about:
A Muslim who beheaded his wife in New York
A Muslim who shot up a U.S. Military recruiting center in Chatanooga
A Muslim who drove his vehicle into bicyclists in New York
A Muslim who ran over his ‘too westernized” adult daughter in Phoenix–killing her
A Muslim who murdered numerous military and civilian personnel at Fort Hood
A Muslim who shot his “too westernized” daughters in Irving, Texas
Muslims who…..etc., etc., etc.
Such diversity.
P.S. I lied your punch lines!

It’s islam…..as commanded by its inventor, the pig-faced dog pedophile (Democrat voter) mohamandcheese. A gutter cult no doubt.
CAIR is a terror organization. Its officer, supporters, and members are terrorists.

Don’t forget to call the station and demand balanced coverage of this rogue group of people.

This is the same state that narrowly avoided a jihad massacre at a showing of Mohammad portraits. Will we ever learn?
BTW- What is CAIR doing about all of the girls and young women being sold into slavery by their Muslim families throughout the world? I guess CAIR doesn’t CARE.
