The case against CAIR.
The so-called Muslim civil rights group Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) continues to be the target of stinging commentary. (*) CAIR claims to speak for moderate Muslims even as it has been a venomous disparager of the US for its efforts in the War on Terrorism. The problem is that CAIR may not be launching its calumniations in good faith, but instead as an organization disloyal and hostile to our country.
It has long reached the point where CAIR must begin responding to the allegations that swirl around it, such as the charge that it has some tie to Hamas. (†) Until CAIR responds in a convincing manner, the media should stop quoting CAIR officials and cease from calling CAIR a civil rights organization.
