As far as the Biden regime is concerned, this is not a bug, but a feature.
“CAIR, one month later: Has the leopard changed its spots?,” by Stephen M. Flatow, JNS, June 27, 2023 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
It’s been a month since the Biden administration included the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in the May 25 rollout of its U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism. U.S. officials said CAIR should be judged by its statements and actions in the future, not what it said or did in the past. But CAIR’s record this past month has not been encouraging, to put it mildly.
The choice of CAIR as one of the groups that will participate in implementing the White House plan surprised and disappointed many in the Jewish community because of the organization’s disturbing record on antisemitism and terrorists.
According to the Anti-Defamation League’s website, CAIR leaders have used “antisemitic tropes related to Jewish influence over the media or political affairs.” In addition, a number of CAIR leaders have had connections to groups that “are or were affiliated with Hamas.” CAIR’s longtime executive director was also a leader of a Hamas support group that (among other things) distributed the anti-Jewish propaganda piece, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
It’s also deeply troubling that CAIR has been a cheerleader for admitted members of Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), the terrorist group that murdered my daughter Alisa in 1995.
Sami al-Arian and Hatem Naji Fariz pleaded guilty to providing services to PIJ, and were sentenced to prison terms. In 2007, CAIR launched a public campaign for al-Arian’s release, calling him a “political prisoner.” In July 2014, Fariz was a featured speaker at a CAIR event in Florida. In August 2020, after al-Arian was released from jail, he starred in a CAIR propaganda video. And when five PIJ terrorists escaped from an Israeli prison two years ago, the communications director for CAIR’s Florida division posted a graphic honoring the escapees.
So, what has CAIR been saying this past month? Has it truly reformed itself, shed its anti-Israel hatred and earned a place in the Biden administration’s efforts?
Let’s start on May 25, the day the administration released its strategy and embraced CAIR. That very day, CAIR issued a press release that denounced “apartheid Israel.”
On May 26, a CAIR press release slandered the ADL, claiming it has “a long history of promoting hate against Palestinians.”
A press release issued by CAIR on May 31 featured a dermatologist invoking the Holocaust in a rant against the supposed “mistreatment of Palestinian families” by Israel. According to the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism, which the United States has been using since 2010, comparing Israel to the Nazis is antisemitic.
On June 6, June 14, June 16 and June 20, CAIR again issued press releases slandering Israel as an “apartheid” state.
And a June 13 CAIR statement accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing.”
During the past month, CAIR also repeatedly called for slashing U.S. aid to Israel; denounced all U.S. laws that impede the anti-Israel BDS movement; and praised a proposal to penalize Israel if it arrests teenage terrorists….

I note that another Fox News report featured Ismail Royer re: the Muslim/Christian opposition to the alphabet gang’s push to indoctrinate school children.
Memo to so-called reporters and television “stars”:
1. Islam teaches hatred of every “unbeliever”. Everywhere.
2. It’s ultimate goal is the subjugation of all mankind under the hegemony of Islamic law. No exceptions.
3. Stop fawning over Muslims.

Fox is a compromised channel – loyal to the Bush establishment. Don’t expect fair treatment on any issue from them. Even on LGBTQIA+, they’ve quietly embraced the woke crowd – within their newsrooms, people have to use preferred pronouns, can’t refer to LGBTQIA+ teachers as groomers and so on
Morons think it’s merely about Murdoch’s hatred for Trump, but Fox’s attitudes are far larger than Trump. The channel hasn’t been the same since Roger Ailes left. I stopped watching it in November 2020, a day before Election Day, and for Election Day itself, I watched OANN

Infidel,
I used to be a Fox fan.
Used to be…
Now, the only time that I watch Fox is when a conservative news website features a short Fox clip.

I stopped a day before Election Day 2020, & watched a couple of Tucker episodes before he turned on Sydney Powell. The last Fox show I watched was Maria interviewing Sydney Powell a day after, and then that was it. Occasionally, I’ve watched some of Tucker’s monologs on interesting subjects, like the dollar ceasing to be the world’s reserve currency. Since Tucker left, though, I’ve watched all his Twitter videos
I heard Megyn Kelly reveal their revised line-up, where Jesse Watters moves into Tucker’s spot, and Laura Ingraham moves to 7:00 and Greg Gutfeld to 10:00. I doubt that that will do anything. Only thing I have observed that is a bit of an improvement is Tulsi occupying the (D) chair on The Five. A strange choice, b’cos even though she was a Dem, she wasn’t a member of the uniparty, and many of her views have shifted right once she left the party & free to say whatever she really believes
James Lincoln says
Thanks for your reply, Infidel

Could CAIR be willing to answer a simple YES/NO to the following koranic statement?
“Do you believe that non-muslims are the WORST OF CREATED BEINGs”
koran 98:6
muslims will not want to answer this simple question.
That makes islam an APARTHEID religion as it discriminates against all non-muslims {..including Jizya taxing}
Israel has the right to exist:even allah is OK with Israel being the land of the Jews
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Like I have noted before, any country that has a significant muslim population should be an Apartheid state. After all, what were some of the features of Apartheid? The major one was segregated populations, where members of population A couldn’t live in areas belonging to population B, intermarriage was illegal, both had separate economies and so on
If all the countries we read of daily here – Britain, Sweden, Germany, France, Denmark, Greece, India, Israel, et al were indeed Apartheid states where muslims were forcibly segregated from the rest of the population, then we would be daily reading here about things like muslims attacking German girls in a swimming pool, accosting Catholic priests in France, trafficking in Hindu girls in India and so on. I know that the world has bad memories of what Apartheid was in South Africa, & so is instantly triggered by the term “Apartheid”. But a close analysis of it would reveal that Apartheid is the one system where both muslims and non-muslims can live in any country – separately and in peace, w/o members of either community, especially the latter, getting victimized. The alternatives are either what we have now, or a genocidal persecution of muslims like is done in China
Of course, the fact that neither Israel, nor any of the other countries I listed above are Apartheid states is another story altogether
࿗Infidel࿘ says
typo: then we would not be daily reading here about things like muslims attacking ……

The above statement would be hilarious satire if it wasn’t a sad and sick fact. Allow me to rephrase the above statement to add clarity:
“It’s been a month since the Biden administration included the FOX in the May 25 rollout of its U.S. National Strategy to Counter CHICKEN DEATHS. “

CAIR is an enemy organization dedicated to destroying democracy in the USA . They should be recognized as such and dealt with as an enemy of the republic.
