We are a group of concerned Americans dedicated to eliminating the
Islamist terrorist threat to the United States Constitution.
Islamist terrorist threat to the United States Constitution.
We believe that the Council on American-Islamic Relations, (CAIR),
is a clear and present danger
to our Constitution and our way of life. We
will continue to expose CAIR's involvement in supporting Islamist terrorists, terrorist-sponsoring organizations
and groups in the United States.

"Those who stay in
America should be open to society without melting,
keeping Mosques open so anyone can come and learn about Islam. If you
choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the message
of Islam ... Islam isn't in America to be equal
to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book
of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the
only accepted religion on Earth."

- Writings About CAIR -
*CAIR Backs Down From Anti-CAIR
In
brief, Whitehead won a sweet
victory, while CAIR suffered a humiliating defeat ...In anticipation of
a court hearing
regarding discovery, Rubinstein filed papers in the Virginia Circuit
Court in October 2005 and December 2005 alleging extensive links
between CAIR’s organizers and control group with Hamas and other
foreign and domestic Islamists. Among other things, these papers
alleged: CAIR’s lineage goes back to a key Hamas leader (Musa Abu
Marzook), and that CAIR has long been connected with, and “exploited”
the 9/11 attacks to raise
money for the Holy Land Foundation, a Hamas front group. CAIR is
heavily supported, financially and otherwise, by suspect Saudi and
UAE-based individuals and groups. CAIR states that the U.S. judicial
system has been “kidnapped by Israeli
interests,”... In March 2006, shortly before a scheduled court hearing
to decide on several of Whitehead’s requests (compelling CAIR to
disclose its financial data, to answer questions about its
relationship with Hamas and other Islamists, and to provide information
regarding its leaders’ activities and intentions), the case was settled
and then dismissed with prejudice by
stipulation (meaning, the
plaintiff has agreed to forever drop all of the claims
that were in, or could have been in, the complaint) ...
According to
CAIR’s own analysis of Whitehead’s initial statements, they “impute the
commission of a criminal offense” by CAIR,
in that these suggest CAIR
“actively supports” terrorists, and advocates the “overthrow” of the
U.S. Constitution in favor of Islamic law. It bears noting that none of
these
words were found to be false, they were not retracted, and they remain
posted on Anti-CAIR’s
website ...
*CAIR Founded By “Islamic
Terrorists”?
Why did CAIR drastically reduce its claims versus Whitehead?... CAIR’s filing an amended motion has two apparent implications: that CAIR has tacitly acknowledged the truth of Whitehead’s deleted assertions; and those assertions can now be repeated with legal impunity... CAIR has proven links to… Islamic terrorists. It's easy to understand why CAIR chose to leave this one alone, what with five current or former CAIR affiliates arrested, convicted, or deported on terrorism-related charges...

*Why
CAIR Dropped Its Lawsuit
Against Anti-CAIR
Apparently it feared exposure that would reveal its leaders connections to terrorist groups like Hamas... Although CAIR is legal under the constitution, it is important to remember that the Communist party and the neo-Nazi parties in America were legal too...

The Whitehead case has counteracted the tactic of using U.S. courts to stifle free speech by demonstrating that the blowback from a defamation lawsuit – properly defended – is generally far worse than the harm caused by the original statements themselves.

Chapters
"I think there is something disingenuous about the idea of a representative of CAIR saying, 'We don't know what this is about.'"... "During the Holyland Foundation trial, evidence was brought to bear that two of the founding members of CAIR - who were still in those positions at the time - were related to Hamas organizers, and the question that was raised was, 'Is CAIR going to be an appropriate liaison partner for the FBI if the two founding members who are still in place are maintaining that relationship with Hamas, a designated terrorist group...'"
FBI Special Agent Lara Burns was going over more
transcripts from
the Philadelphia meeting -- the 1993 gathering of Holy Land officials
and Hamas sympathizers that the government contends was meant to
brainstorm ways to downplay the Foundations extremist ties -- when
talked turned to a passage from defendant Shukri Abu Baker. He is
quoted on the wiretap transcript talking about how it would be
beneficial to have more traditional, secular American organizations to
help spread the Islamist message. He and others envisioned an
"alternative" organization "which can
benefit from a new atmosphere, one whose Islamic hue is not very
conspicuous," according to the transcript. Prosecutor Barry Jonas asked
Burns whether any groups formed after the Philadelphia gathering fit
this mold. "CAIR," she said...

We,
the undersigned American Muslims, have long known the true character of
CAIR and its allies... We observe that they denounce “terrorism” in
general terms but not the specific actions of Islamist groups like
Hamas or Hezbollah. They denounce violence but not the ideologies
behind it... We observe their commitment to radical aims, their
attempts to chill free speech by calling critics of radical Islam
“Islamophobes,” and their false, ugly accusations against moderate
American Muslims who disagree with their agenda...
*Holy Land Foundation Defendants Guilty On All Counts
"By funneling millions of dollars to Hamas, this organization and its leaders believed that it could help those who resort to violence to support their cause," ... "All Americans should thank the Justice Department for their aggressive and tenacious pursuit of this group and its leaders."
Court
documents name the Council on American Islamic Relations, CAIR as being
among "individuals/entities who are and/or were members of the US
Muslim Brotherhood's Palestine Committee and/or its organizations." In
a precedent setting revelation, the government's trial brief sets forth
in great detail incontestable evidence linking CAIR to Hamas and the
Muslim Brotherhood. According to documents seized from co-conspirator
Ismail Elbarrasse, there is a straight line of associations going from
Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and terminating with the Islamic Association
for Palestine, CAIR's immediate antecedent ... Such excuses will no
longer pass muster, the court documents and evidentiary materials that
have been amassed for use in the Holy Land Foundation case now prove
beyond all doubt that CAIR is Hamas.
The evidence developed by Federal law enforcement places CAIR within a
top down hierarchical arrangement of terror supporters ..."By funneling millions of dollars to Hamas, this organization and its leaders believed that it could help those who resort to violence to support their cause," ... "All Americans should thank the Justice Department for their aggressive and tenacious pursuit of this group and its leaders."

Youngest
Member
of Hamas Family Tree
What has so far gone unnoticed, though, is one last organization on this list that the Committee hoped to establish in the future. As stated in the bylaws, this organization would handle “issues relating to political work and foreign relations”: It is a committee which operates through the Association [IAP] for now. It is hoped that it will become an official organization for political work and its headquarters will be in Washington, God’s willing. It represents the political aspect to support the cause politically on the American front. An organization headquartered in Washington, DC, tasked with political activism, born out of the IAP? Maybe a vague reference at first glance, but growing evidence points to the identity of the mystery organization listed in the bylaws as the youngest in the family of HAMAS front groups founded on American soil. Fast forward to July 30, 1994, just weeks after the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) was founded. A Palestine Committee meeting agenda lists several issues to be discussed, including a review of the reports of the “working organizations.” Listed among these organizations right beside HLF, IAP, and UASR – all members of the Palestine Committee as listed in the bylaws – is the word “CAIR." The same CAIR that is headquartered in Washington, and whose co-founders - executive director Nihad Awad and chairman emeritus Omar Ahmad - served as president and public relations director, respectively, of the IAP ...

*CAIR Executive Director Placed at HAMAS Meeting
On the telephone, three men discussed who should be invited to join them in a meeting to discuss what to do next. The call included Omar Ahmad (CAIR’s chairman emeritus), who at the time served at President of the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP), Shukri Abu Baker, President of the Holy Land Foundation and one of the defendants now on trial, and Abdelhaleem al-Ashqar, the Executive Director of a HAMAS-linked charity known as the Al Aqsa Educational Fund. They discussed inviting people from the “Union,” a code reference to the IAP. They mentioned “Akram,” “Abdul Rahman” and “Nihad.” In 1993, Nihad Awad was the spokesman and public relations director for the IAP. During that same telephone conversation, the men on the telephone call referred to Nihad's work in "media." Shukri Abu Bakr mentioned "a full article in Dallas Morning News...and every few lines: Mr. Nihad said this and that...." The Dallas Morning News did publish an article that day. It ran under the headline "Dallas' Mideast Observers Warn of Conflict Ahead." It extensively quoted "Nihad Awad, spokesman for the Dallas-based Islamic Association of Palestine."
*From HLF To Hamas: A Modern Parallel
Ahmad, for his part, announced his maximalist intentions, stating, "We've always demanded the 1948 territories," code for the destruction of Israel and its replacement with an Islamist state, but signaled his unwillingness to go public with his views for fear of damaging his movement's position, stating, "No, we didn't say that to the Americans." Despite the less than optimal outcome of the HLF trial, and while the defendants await a decision by the prosecutors regarding a retrial, another opportunity has presented itself to compare the mindset of the HLF defendants with those of Hamas. Later this month, Israeli and Palestinian negotiators are planning to meet in Annapolis, Maryland for a conference designed to push the Middle East peace process forward. Not to be dissuaded, and very much in the mold of the 1993 Philadelphia meeting, Hamas is planning a "rejectionist" conference in Damascus, inviting all Palestinian hard-liners and terrorist groups, to coincide with the official Annapolis event. Current Hamas Deputy Political Bureau Chief Mousa Abu Marzook, himself very much a part of the HLF trial, said the reasoning behind the conference was, "to send a clear message to the international community and the United States that Abu Mazen (Abbas) does not represent the Palestinian people in these negotiations," an unsurprising position for a top Hamas official. But Hamas' positions are hardly limited to determining who is allowed to speak for Palestinians. The Hamas Charter states, "Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it" ...
*Holy Land Trial Revealed A Covert Islamist Agenda
[T]he evidence shows "definitive proof that CAIR, ISNA, ICNA and all the Muslim Brotherhood groups in this country came here with a markedly different purpose from what they claim, and they have gone through decades of deceit to conceal their true identities and purposes."... Earlier this month in Washington, a handful of prominent Muslims gathered to explain to an American audience why the Muslim Brotherhood was a clear and present danger both to American Muslims and the nation. Naser Khader, a Muslim parliamentarian from Denmark living under death threat for speaking out against Islamic radicals, even called U.S. government officials "useful idiots" for continuing to succor extremists ...Turkish-born Zeyno Baran, a Hudson Institute scholar who advises the Pentagon and other federal agencies, called the Brotherhood affiliates "a fifth column of activists working to undermine the foundation of America." Ms. Baran, a Muslim who defends democratic secularism, blasted the U.S. government for working with CAIR, ISNA and the rest, saying official recognition legitimizes these groups among the wider Muslim community. One cost of the American mainstream's refusal to call out these front groups, she warned, is giving carte blanche to Islamists who want to quietly radicalize all American Muslims, starting with students. If we want to avoid the kind of social conflict tearing up Britain, Ms. Baran said, we must wake up and challenge these closet Islamists publicly and not fall for their rhetoric of victimization ...
*CAIR
“Affiliated
With” Hamas
In addition to picking apart the arguments laid out in CAIR’s brief piece by piece, the government set an important precedent, officially and definitively linking CAIR to Hamas, writing: "In the instant case, striking CAIR’s name from the attachment to the Trial Brief will not prevent its conspiratorial involvement with HLF, and others affiliated with Hamas, from becoming a matter of public record. That has already occurred as a consequence of the presentation of evidence at trial."... The government also argues some legal basics, that CAIR has no standing to petition its removal from the list of unindicted co-conspirators since the list is not directly pertinent to the “actual, ongoing controversy” of HLF’s criminal trial, basically that, by filing the brief, CAIR has not acted as a “friend of the court,” but rather only out of self interest, and that, in the brief, CAIR has failed to show any injury as a result of its inclusion on the list of unindicted co-conspirators ...

*CAIR's Islamism Revealed
Will CAIR acknowledge that counter-terrorism is a greater public responsibility to the organized American Muslim community than the obsession with the protection of our civil rights? Is it not the primary role of Muslim American organizations to lead the ideological war against radical Islamists? Isn’t this the number one issue on the mind of most Americans in 2007? Non-Muslims can do nothing to deconstruct this poisonous ideology. Our fellow Americans living in fear for their security are looking for us to lead this fight. The credibility of Muslims is suffering deeply as a result of the complete denial of this responsibility by groups like CAIR. In fact, there may be no better way to preserve our rights than by leading an ideological movement against political Islam and militant Islamism ... The Washington Times piece about CAIR was not a hit-piece nor was it anti-Muslim or anti-Islamic. It begins the long overdue debate about the agenda of organizations like CAIR and where they stand with regard to political Islam and these questions. Soon, mainstream media and government leaders are going to need finally to begin to ignore the intimidation tactics of organizations like CAIR and to engage political Islam...

The United Arab Emirates recently announced on its official government website that it has set up an endowment serving as a source of income for CAIR. The amount of the funding is undisclosed, but sources say it will be enough to help CAIR finance the construction of a new $24 million office building and a planned $50 million public-relations campaign aimed at repairing Islam's -- and the UAE's -- image in America ...In a press statement he issued after 9-11, Hooper flatly asserted: "We do not support directly or indirectly or receive support from any overseas group or government." He has claimed CAIR receives its funding from member dues. In fact, CAIR not only receives support from the UAE, but also from interests based in Saudi Arabia ...To help assuage skeptics, CAIR has enlisted the help of former Republican congressman Paul Findley, a well-known apologist for Islam who happens to do business in the Middle East...

"These allegations are old. They have been around for almost two decades," said Ibrahim Hooper, a CAIR spokesman. "Fifteen years is a long time to be on the board of any organization, and this is just a natural transition."

Boxer’s office confirmed to NEWSWEEK that she has withdrawn a “certificate of accomplishment” to Sacramento activist Basim Elkarra after learning that he serves as an official with the Council on American -Islamic Relations (CAIR). After directing her staff to look into CAIR, Boxer “expressed concern” about some past statements and actions by the group, as well as assertions by some law enforcement officials that it “gives aid to international terrorist groups,” ... Boxer tells NEWSWEEK she never saw the letter to CAIR signed in her name or was even aware of the award to Elkarra before it was sent out. "I feel terrible about this," she says. "We just made a mistake. I was not in the loop. That was an automatic signature [on the letter]." But Boxer stands by her decision to withdraw the award and to distance herself from CAIR, saying she was influenced by previous critical statements about CAIR made by her Democratic colleagues Sens. Richard Durbin of Illinois and Charles Schumer of New York. "To praise an organization because they haven't been indicted is like somebody saying, 'I'm not a crook,'” Boxer says. “I'm going to take a lot of hits for this. But I'm just doing what I think is right." ... CAIR has formally asked for a meeting with Boxer and demanded that she withdraw the action - which one top CAIR official said smacks of “Islamophobia.” ... Boxer was unaware of the certificate to Elkarra that had been given in her name by staff members in her California office and only learned of it “when she came across a story on Horowitz’s blog,” ...

People of good faith must look carefully at the broader implications of all of this.

CAIR-CAN and CAIR share a common and inter-related goal of fostering their extremist views, and of supporting terrorism to achieve their objectives; CAIR-CAN and Sheema Khan falsely and fraudulently misrepresent themselves as moderate representatives of Muslim interests; CAIR-CAN and Sheema Khan are frightening moderate Islamists, and are driving young people into extremism] ...

Abdurahman Alamoudi: Another CAIR director, he is serving 23 years in federal prison for plotting terrorism.

*Government Reminds Court Of CAIR/MAS Ties To Terrorists
CAIR was listed among "entities who are and/or were members of the US Muslim Brotherhood's Palestine Committee." Then, when the group petitioned to remove its name from that list, prosecutors said such relief "will not prevent its conspiratorial involvement with HLF, and others affiliated with Hamas, from becoming a matter of public record." Now, in a federal court filing from December, federal prosecutors have described CAIR as "having conspired with other affiliates of the Muslim Brotherhood to support terrorists." The government also stated that "proof that the conspirators used deception to conceal from the American public their connections to terrorists was introduced" in the Dallas Holy Land Foundation trial last year and the Chicago trial of the Hamas men in 2006 ... Federal prosecutors used their response to the brief to remind the court of the both organizations' questionable stand on the issue of terrorism itself ... (Federal Court Filing)
*HLF's Financial Support of CAIR Garners New Scrutiny
When it was formed, CAIR was helped out by $5,000 from HLF ... "This is an outright lie," Awad said. "Our organization did not receive any seed money from HLFRD. CAIR raises its own funds and we challenge Mr. Emerson to provide even a shred of evidence to support his ridiculous claim." Emerson did better than that. Through Epstein, he provided the Senate committee with HLF's original seed money to CAIR, drawn on a Saudi Arabian bank account ... Awad's testimony wasn't the first time CAIR denied the HLF support. Earlier in 2003, during a deposition for a civil case, CAIR co-founder and then-chairman Omar Ahmad was asked, "Did they [HLF] give you any money to help start CAIR?" He responded unequivocally, "No." ... Awad then attempted to minimize the significance of the CAIR/HLF money trail: "HLF was not indicted for any criminal activity at the time of its donation in 1994 and its assets were frozen by the Justice Department seven years later in December 2001." He added that HLF's "relatively small donation" came "seven years before any wrongdoing was attributed to Holy Land Foundation." Transcripts from government surveillance tapes make clear, however, that CAIR's founders were fully aware of the support HLF leaders voiced for Hamas well before accepting the money...
