Why the legal Jihad? Because we CAIR
It seems that Conservative author David Frum has decided to escalate the media war between himself and the sue-crazy antics of another immoderate special interest organization. Apparently CAIR Canada has been threatening Frum's Canadian publisher for printing Frum's fact based assessment of CAIR's dubious past. CAIR's response was not to offer counter evidence to Frum's contentions but to threaten his publisher with lawyers and HRC canabals.
Here are some highlights on his contentitons:
"CAIR was founded in 1994 by alumni of an older group, the Islamic Association for Palestine. The IAP, founded by senior Hamas figure Mousa Mohammed Abu Marzook, calls for the destruction of Israel and the creation of an Islamic state under Islamic law in Israel's place. (In 1996, CAIR would condemn the U.S. government's decision to deport Marzook as an "anti-Islamic" act.)"
One of CAIR's original advisory board members, Siraj Wahhaj, served as a character witness for Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman. Rahman is the blind Egyptian cleric convicted in 1995 of conspiracy to bomb New York landmarks. CAIR described Rahman's conviction as a hate crime.
CAIR's founding chairman, Omar Ahmed, also an IAP alumnus, is said to have declared at a public event in California in July, 1998: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran . . . should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth."
These are the facts behind the commentary that the National Post and I have published. They are facts that the Canadian public and Canadian officials are entitled to know. The National Post and I are confident that Canada's courts will agree that no proper interest would be served by suppressing them.
How very predictable...and sadly how common. This is the degenerate level to which open public discourse has sunk under the stewardship of cultural marxism and the rights industry litigation lawyers.
Frankly the self serving nature of these specialinterest lobbys make me ashamed to be Canadian and I'm sure the majority of Muslims feel likewise ashamed that this organization pretends to speak for them.
