CAIR 'Demands' US Army War College Cancel My Lecture on Islamic History
American Thinker ^ | June 11, 2019 | Raymond Ibrahim

Posted on 06/11/2019 8:18:46 AM PDT by jazusamo

The "unindicted co-conspirator" Council on American-Muslim Relations ("CAIR") and its Islamist allies are "outraged" because the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pa. has invited me to give a lecture on my recent book, Sword and Scimitar: Fourteen Centuries of War between Islam and the West.

On May 28, CAIR's Pennsylvania leadership — namely, Jacob Bender, Timothy Welbeck, Ahmet Selim Tekelioglu — sent a letter to USAWC commandant Gen. John Kem and provost Dr. James Breckenridge urging them to revoke "the decision of the US Army War College to invite Mr. Raymond Ibrahim to deliver the prestigious 50th Annual Lecture Series of the US Army War College."

The reason CAIR cites to disinvite me is that "Raymond Ibrahim's book ... advance[s] a simplistic, inaccurate and often prejudicial view of the long history of Muslim-West relations which we find deeply troubling."

Much of this is covered in a Task Force report, which contains some responses from me, titled "Army War College under fire over historian's upcoming lecture on 'clash of civilizations' between Islam and the West."

As a reflection of the unprecedented (and ongoing) nature of this Islamist campaign against me, the Task Force notes (emphasis added), "The trend of disinviting speakers on controversial subjects has been on the rise at American universities in recent years, but this appears to be the first time that a speaker at U.S. military educational institution has been subject to such a campaign, according to a database maintained by the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education."

CAIR has since issued other screeds, including a Press Release and a petition that present me as a "notorious Islamophobe," and — despite my being of Egyptian descent — a "white nationalist," who, if allowed to speak, will cause "white nationalism, Islamophobia, and violence" against Muslims in America tobreakout.

CAIR, an unidicted co-conspirator that has supported terrorists now blatantly tries to dictate how our military trains our leaders. Pathetic!

Who cares what CAIR wants, Actually, if they want to have it canceled, it must be good and factual and important for people to hear.

Sorry, I’ve just had a belly full of all of this nonsense.

The history of Islam is one of conquest and slavery, murder and mayhem.

Everything Mad Mo preached.

Sounds like the Lecture is right on the money for CAIR to get their hijabs all twisted out of shape.

CAIR is a terrorist organization.

It should be publicly ignored... and privately investigated by law enforcement.

The obvious question to me is how the f*ck does CAIR know what’s going on in a U.S. military college? This needs to be answered from the top down and security needs to be tightened down. Does CAIR have little moslem janitors in the facility who snoop through the trash or does the War College publicize what’s going on? Either way, it’s general stupidity at it’s worst.
