A Bad CAIR Day

Here’s a dose of bad news for the Council on American Islamic Relations, whose Saudi-funded public relations/grievance theater campaign is backfiring big time: House GOP protest Muslim seminar on Hill.
WASHINGTON - A House Republican leadership group said Monday that Democrats should retract an offer to let the nation’s largest Islamic civil liberties organization use a Capitol conference room for a seminar.
The House Republican Conference referred to the Council on American-Islamic Relations as “terrorist apologists” and called on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to cancel the forum scheduled for Tuesday.
“Democrats arrange official meeting with pro-Hamas, pro-Hezbollah group in U.S. Capitol,” headlined a Conference press release carrying a Washington Times article on the planned meeting.
Ibrahim Hooper does what he always does: plays the victim card. (A card that seems to be nearing its expiration date.)
“It’s really disappointing,” said CAIR national communications director Ibrahim Hooper, that whenever there’s an attack from elective officials “we don’t even ask any more which party it is. It should be a concern to ordinary Republicans that the party is being viewed as a reservoir of anti-Muslim hate.”
Notice: Hooper doesn’t even bother to challenge the validity of the accusation that CAIR is pro-Hamas and pro-Hizballah. Straight to the whining.
