CAIR Q'rap: The Daily Whine
If you have not seen one of the daily missives emitting from CAIR (Council for American-Islamic Relations), here is a typical one. They are always victim-oriented; of course, they are the victims, or their Muslim puppets are. They are always inciting protest and reflect underlying hostility. And, they are always soliciting money, even though Saudi Arabia bankrolls CAIR; presumably, receiving contributions gets the puppets to "buy in" (cf: Pat Robertson).
There is no way to tell whether these missives contain any truth, some of the truth, or all of the truth, unless you already know the stories or take the time to research them, efforts which are seldom worth it. These missives are designed to whip up and keep whipped up the Muslims in America. CAIR needs a base of ignorant paranoids, and Islam delivers.
Sometimes the emails are funny, though never intentionally. They always whine ceaselessly.
Being aware of these is important: It is necessary to know the enemy.

CAIR says president must address 'climate of abuse'
(WASHINGTON, D.C., 6/3/05) - A prominent national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group said tonight that the Bush administration must address the "climate of abuse" at U.S. detention centers worldwide following a new revelation that an American jailer at the Guantanamo Bay prison splashed urine on a Quran.
The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said a Pentagon statement released late today detailed that incident and others in which guards kicked, stepped on or defaced a Quran, Islam's revealed text.

"President Bush must address the climate of abuse that seems to prevail at U.S. detention centers worldwide," said CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad. He said it is not enough to merely issue reports outlining abuse or to punish low-level personnel. "Those at the top must be held responsible for the actions of the men and women they command," said Awad.
CAIR recently launched two initiatives in response to reports of prisoner abuse and desecration of Qurans by U.S. military personnel.
On the first anniversary of the revelations of abuse at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison, CAIR and other groups called for the formation of an independent bi-partisan commission to examine the use and instigation of torture and cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment (CID) by American military, security and intelligence personnel worldwide.

Following allegations that Guantanamo guards desecrated Islam's holy text, CAIR launched a campaign to provide free Qurans to Americans of all faiths. Thousands of people across the nation have already taken advantage of that offer.

MUSLIM PRAYER HALL BURNED TO GROUND IN CALIF. - TOP
CAIR-LA calls for FBI probe as possible hate crime
(ANAHEIM, CA, 6/3/05) - The Southern California office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-LA) today called on the FBI to investigate a fire at a Muslim prayer hall in that state as a possible hate crime.
CAIR-LA was contacted by the director of the United Islamic Youth Organization who said the prayer hall, located at an Islamic cemetery in Adelanto, Calif., was burned to the ground early this morning. Mousavi told CAIR-LA that the 2,000 square foot prayer hall was used for funeral services and other religious activities. The same cemetery had been targeted by vandals in 2003. Local law enforcement authorities and the FBI were notified of the incident.
"We urge the FBI and other law enforcement agencies working on the case to investigate this incident as a possible hate crime," said CAIR-LA Communications Director Sabiha Khan. "We pray that the perpetrators, whatever their motive, are caught and brought to justice."
Khan said a series of similar incidents has been reported in recent months by Muslim individuals and institutions nationwide. Last weekend, CAIR's Florida office reported that vandals threw a large rock through a glass door of the Islamic School of Miami's prayer area. Just last month, a brick was thrown through a window of the Fort Collins (Colo.) Islamic Center.
As a response to these and other anti-Muslim incidents, CAIR published a "Muslim Community Safety Kit." The safety kit may be obtained free of charge by e-mailing pubs@cair-net.org. (Include name, address and phone number when requesting the safety kit.) It may also be ordered at: https://www.cair-net.org/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=1021
