The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is yet again fighting for the expansion of the Islamic presence in a prison. It has just “sued the Virginia Department of Corrections and officials at a correctional facility for their refusal to provide Ramadan accommodations to a Muslim inmate.” The prison already provides special accommodations to Muslims on Ramadan, but that isn’t enough for CAIR. They want the rules bent. Prison officials reportedly refuse to accommodate new convert Alexander Crichlow because he converted to Islam after the deadline to sign up for Ramadan accommodations, and given the vigor of new converts, it is very important to CAIR that Crichlow be accommodated expeditiously.
In 2018, CAIR sued Riverside Regional Jail in North Prince George, Virginia, for allowing a Christian space, and filed an injunction demanding “Islamic programming” and “pork-free meals.” The lawsuit filed by CAIR actually called for the dismantling of the Christian “God-Pod.” CAIR’s claims had nothing to do with religious rights, and had everything to do with prioritizing Islam. There is a stark contrast between peaceful Christian “God-pods” and Christian prison fellowships (which have been long established in institutions) and the record of Islam in prisons. Jihad recruitment is rampant in prisons, with little effort to curb it. In 2020, Al Qaeda-trained jihadist Mohamed Ibrahim was sentenced in the Eastern District of Texas for recruiting other inmates to join the Islamic State. Fox ran a report some years ago warning that federal prisons are a “breeding ground” for terrorists, and that “if we continue to downplay the threat, we do so at our own peril.”
Other Islamic organizations also aid the cause of Islamic expansion in jails. The Seerah Foundation proudly proclaims its mission as “spreading Islam and supporting Dawah projects” in prison, and the National Islamic Prison Foundation’s (NIPF) outreach program is also dedicated to converting inmates in America to Islam. The NIPF is heavily funded by Saudi Arabia. Its clerics are “responsible for indoctrinating inmates,” and are “mostly Saudi-trained clerics who preached the tenets of Wahhabism, an extremist form of Islam that is associated with passionately anti-Semitic and anti-Western worldviews.”
The more Islamized prisons become, the more dangerous they will be for infidel inmates. That danger will spread to the general population once these jihadis are released. In February 2022, the UK set a precedent and decided to segregate imprisoned jihad terrorists, as UK prisons had become dubbed “jihadi training camps.” Muslim prison gangs were also reportedly beating prisoners who wouldn’t convert to Islam.
In five American states, one in every five inmates are Muslim. Recently in California, CAIR and Muslim prisoners also complained over having to give up beards and kufis.

“US Muslim group sues prison for denying Ramadan accommodations to inmate,” by Servet Günerigök, Anadolu Agency, April 5, 2023:
WASHINGTON – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said it sued the Virginia Department of Corrections and officials at a correctional facility for their refusal to provide Ramadan accommodations to a Muslim inmate.
The Green Rock Correctional Center in Chatham has denied accommodations to Alexander Crichlow during the month-long religious observance, CAIR said Monday.
Crichlow, a Muslim who converted to Islam in January, fasts from before dawn until sunset during Ramadan.
Since January, he has repeatedly asked prison officials to provide him with the same Ramadan accommodations as dozens of Muslims at Green Rock, including receiving breakfast before dawn, a double serving of dinner at sunset and permission to gather daily for evening prayers with other Muslims.
“But prison officials reportedly refuse to accommodate Critchlow because he converted to Islam after their arbitrary deadline to sign up for Ramadan accommodations, which fell on Nov. 18, 2022—over four months before Ramadan,” CAIR said in a statement. “According to them, an exception-free statewide policy refuses Ramadan accommodation to any incarceree who converted to Islam after Nov. 18, 2022.”
The group said that “there is nothing difficult about prison officials providing Crichlow exactly what they already provide to dozens of other Muslims.”….

I’d love to provide extra things for Muslims.
Keith O says
A steady diet of ham sandwiches and the Christian channels on TV?
dazzleme says
Love it Keith O, that would be awesome to give them!
PRCS says
Two strikes:
1. Being Muslim
2. Being imprisoned criminals
Keith O says
We are getting a similar problem in the jails here in Australia.
The inmates get all the extra goodies and the non mudslimes see this and convert simply to gain access to all the privileges.
James Lincoln says
They may also convert in order to protect their physical safety, Keith O.

Its prison you frigging morons. Prison is a place where you lose the freedoms you had before you committed a crime that landed you in prison. There is no happy hour in prison and you cant get a pizza delivered either.
VictorMc says
Islam is the curse of OUR earth. What more do you need to know?
OLD GUY says
CAIR should be listed as a terrorist organization and shut down.
dazzleme says
I agree Old Guy, and they certainly should NOT get any privileges, especially to do with Ramadan! And if they don’t like it go home and don’t come here anymore!
