CAIR vs. DPW
Powerline reviews an article by Daniel Pipes regarding the CAIR organization and its history of members being tied to terrorist organizations. The question is asked:
“How long will it be until the establishment finally recognizes CAIR for what it is and denies it mainstream legitimacy?”
The answer is obvious: when CAIR takes over terminal operations in a US port. How hard is that to answer?
Daniel Pipes is the old master on all things ME, and he defeated CAIR in a running lawsuit brought against him by that org (specifics at http://www.DanielPipes.org). There’s also an anti-CAIR site which tracks CAIR specifically (www.ACAIR.org), headed by Whitehead who was also sued by CAIR.
ACAIR e-mails and newsletters carry a standard notice, warning list members that any negative e-mails sent to CAIR from workplace computers, result in CAIR contacting the sender’s employer to complain of “anti-Muslim bias” and, apparently, attempting to get the sender’s job terminated.
Sadly, to a degree, CAIR was proven right.
I think it would be a good idea to be as deaf to cries of “race-baiting” as we are to cries of “racism.” Look into the facts, then put out some sunlight.
