The Truth about CAIR and Terrorism
FRONTPAGEMAGAZINE.COM ^ | NOVEMBER 26, 2004 | DAVID FRUM

Posted on 11/27/2004 9:48:36 PM PST by CHARLITE

Two weeks ago, the National Post and I were served with a notice of libel by the Canadian branch of the Council on American Islamic Relations, or CAIR. The Post and I are not alone. Over the past year, CAIR's Canadian and U.S. branches have served similar libel notices on half a dozen other individuals and organizations in the United States and Canada. Each case has its own particular facts, yet they are linked by a common theme: That we defendants have accused CAIR (in the words of the notice served on me) of being "an unscrupulous, Islamist, extremist sympathetic group in Canada supporting terrorism."

Lawyers for individuals and newspapers served with libel notices will normally urge their clients to avoid any comment on the matter--to avoid even any acknowledgement that they have been served. This is usually good advice. A notice of libel is not a lawsuit, but a warning of a lawsuit to come. If the potential defendant keeps quiet, the potential plaintiff will often drop the suit altogether.

But wise legal advice often comes at a cost, a cost in public information. So I was heartened that the National Post's lawyers have encouraged the paper and me to continue with this important story.

"After the 9/11 attacks on the United States, CAIR's Web site featured a link titled, "Donate to the NY/DC Disaster Relief Fund." The link connected to the Web site of the Holy Land Foundation, a charity closed down by the United States three months later as a Hamas front."

Get a load of this organization!! I recall very well, right after 9/11 that "spokespeople" from CAIR were all over the cable channels and no doubt network as well. That guy named Hooper with his white crocheted beanie, and the offensive, arrogant female named Sarah Elkanawah (sp?) were constantly nattering on about how "patriotic" they and CAIR were..........and so forth. I don't trust them. They're anti-semitic subversives, in my opinion and from all appearances. Pardon me if I say that if I were in power, I'd have the whole rotten bunch of them thrown out of this country. How in the world can 1% of foreigners with a wicked, vicious mind-set deriving from a horrifying cult, be wielding such power and influence over 300 million people with foundations, customs, traditions and belief systems totally incompatible with theirs? (which is rape, murder, blood-letting, beheading,abuse of females and children....... and general mayhem)

CAIR is also the organization that "freeps" the media anytime a negative story about islam is proffered.

(ie Mohamed married a 5 year old girl, etc...)

CAIR has been quick to learn from the authoritian fascists on the Left. Threats from scumbag lawyers, so-called anti-discrimination laws, the continual mewling about racism, all are part of their attempt to keep the truth hidden and those who speak out in silence.

I believe they just Popped IMUS in the Morning for saying something about "Stinking Palestinians" maybe they are somehow related to the French.

Anyway this is Crappola, we here in the US have a freedom of speech. This is a prime example of the Progressives HATE CRIME LAW as a suppression of our freedom of speech!
The good Lord gave us the ability to use our minds to decide what is good and what is bad, what to Love and what to Hate. This Hate Crime legislation and the penalties must be repealed.

Didn't take long for this ancient death cult of rock worshippers to find out what lawyers are for. I guess that shows progress. I was beginning to think there was no hope for this backward stone-age group in the modern world. ;<

If we keep subjecting the cutthroat cult to spectacular
military defeats, some portion of the 300 million will
figure out that either there is no allah, or there is,
but she doesn't support jihad.
