The Council on American-Islamic Relations has designated the U.S. House of Representatives Sharia Free America Caucus an “anti-Muslim hate group,” the first time in CAIR’s 32-year history that it has designated a congressional caucus an extremist organization, according to a Feb. 18 statement from the group.
“Caucus members support extreme policies that would effectively ban the practice of the world’s second-largest religion in the United States,” the designation states, explaining that “like canon law for Catholics and halachah for Orthodox Jews, Sharia refers to the rules that Muslims follow, including praying five times a day, fasting in Ramadan, giving in charity, and following the laws of the land in which they live.”
CAIR’s announcement comes as the Republican-led caucus continues to advocate for legislative and policy action against what its members describe as the threat of Islamic law in the United States.

Yeah! And, their point is????
Censorship..
Every muslim group is a hate group
Where is America’s ‘Amelia’?
It’s for usage by CAIR’s / Hamas / Muslim Brotherhood editors on Wikipedia...to ban such groups , individuals as “unreliable source” (RS).
Hasn’t CAIR been named a terrorist organization by our government? If not - why not?
“””and following the laws of the land in which they live.””””
Is that what happened when they crash two planes into the twin towers? Is that what happened when the Somalis committed fraud in Minnesota? Is that what happened when they tried to blow up thew twin towers and failed the first time? Is that what happened on Bourbon Street when a driver drove a truck into the crowd? Is that what happened in the Pulse night club attack? How about the Boston Marathon pressure cooker bombing.
BS. Kick them out of the USA. They are incompatible with a civilized society.
So, what if they are?
Well technically, yeah.
But when a less observant Muslim gets more religion, he gets violent.
I think they should outlaw socialism.
While ‘hate’ might be too strong a word, the stance is certainly anti-Muslim. As General Patton observed: ‘To me it seems certain that the fatalistic teachings of Muhammad and the utter degradation of women are the outstanding causes for the arrested development of the Arab. He is exactly as he was around the year 700, while we have kept on developing.’
Consequently, I would no sooner accept Sharia law in America than I would the establishment of a Nazi zone. As they are both totalitarian political ideologies.
Amen General Patton !
CAIR can go phu cough.
Here Here!
They want Sharia compliant no-go zones where police are afraid to patrol and citizens are afraid to enter.
And CAIR is an anti-American group so they can go F’ themselves.
They are sofa king annoying.
