CAIR Goes After Rudy Giuliani
Wed, Jul 25, 2007 at 5:38:51 pm PDT
You had to know this was coming.
The Council on American Islamic Relations, the Saudi-funded radical Islamic front group named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Hamas funding trial, has put out one of their infamous “Action Alerts” on Rudy Giuliani—because he used the words “Islamic terrorism:” Action: Contact the Giuliani Presidential Committee.
Here’s the contact information they’ve published at their web site. I encourage LGF readers to use this information to express support for Giuliani’s unwillingness to knuckle under to the demands of this fifth column group:

UPDATE at 7/25/07 6:22:45 pm:
Here’s a blast from the past. When Rudy Giuliani told the Saudis to take their $10 million check and shove it, shortly after the 9/11 attacks, CAIR was right there, doing the same thing they’re doing today: Muslims Criticize Mayor Giuliani for Rejection of Disaster Donation.
Muslims Criticize Mayor Giuliani for Rejection of Disaster Donation
From: CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations)
For immediate release
Washington-DC, 10/12/2001In the Name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Washington-based Islamic advocacy group, today criticized New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani for rejecting a $10 million World Trade Center attack disaster-relief check from a Saudi Arabian prince who said in a statement that America “should re-examine its policies in the Middle East and adopt a more balanced stance toward the Palestinian cause.” (see : Citing Comments on Attack, Giuliani Rejects Saudi’s Gift)
Giuliani called the remarks by Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal, a nephew of King Fahd and one of the world’s wealthiest men, “highly irresponsible and very, very dangerous.” He directed that the prince’s donation to the Twin Towers Fund be rejected.
(In his remarks Prince Alwaleed also offered condolences for the victims of the World Trade Center attack and condemned terrorism in all its forms. In another statement issued today, Prince Alwaleed reiterated his support for Palestinian rights.)
“It is unconscionable that Mayor Giuliani would sacrifice the interests of the victims of these horrific attacks in order to score points with the domestic lobby for a foreign government. The mayor’s actions are in opposition to President Bush’s repeated warnings not to turn the fight against terrorism into a war against Muslims or Arabs,” said CAIR Board Chairman Omar Ahmad.
“It is just this kind of uncritical support for Israel’s brutal policies toward Palestinian Christians and Muslims that creates resentment in the Muslim world that is in turn exploited by terrorists. American policy in the Middle East should be based on what is best for America, not Israel,” said Ahmad. He added that more Americans are calling for a re-alignment of United States foreign policy in the Arab and Muslim worlds based on justice and universal standards of human rights.
There are an estimated seven million Muslims in America and some 1.2 billion worldwide.CONTACT: Ibrahim Hooper
