The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) recently received at least $50 million from wealthy Saudis like Prince Alwaleed ibn Talal, according to ArabNews, and they’re planning to spend $10 million a year for the next five years in the United States to promote their intolerant, anti-Western ideology—with efforts like this one, featuring CAIR vice chair Ahmad Al-Akhras in a speech to college students at Kent State: Speaker discusses U.S.-Muslim relations. (Hat tip: Terp Mole.)
Dr. Ahmad Al-Akhras gave one simple reason why Muslim countries have issues with U.S. foreign policy. “If you invade them (Muslim countries), they hate you,” Al-Akhras said. “You help them, they love you.”
The vice chair of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a national Muslim civil rights organization, spoke to an audience of about 50 last night. The speech’s topic, “The Future of the U.S.-Islamic World Relations” tackled U.S. foreign policy in a post-Sept. 11 world.
Al-Akhras started off his speech saying the United States needs to realize it is not in a bubble. “What happens in the streets of Baghdad has influence on the streets of London and the policies in Washington have importance in Palestine,” Al-Akhras said.
“I’m sure you have heard, ‘Why do they hate us?’ You have to ask yourself is there really a blind hatred for the U.S.?”
Al-Akhras outlined the way he thinks the United States should change its foreign policy. He said the federal government shouldn’t lump all Islamic groups together and the United States needs to recognize the elections of Islamic governments in other countries. [By this, he means Hamas, the parent organization of CAIR. —ed.]
Dr. Ahmad Al-Akhras, Vice Chair of CAIR-National, was featured in July when he physically assaulted LGF reader ciaospirit in Columbus, Ohio: Video: CAIR Official Assaults LGF Reader. Authorities in Columbus refused to take any action against Al-Akhras.
