Surprise! CAIR Get Slapped With Summons
This is shocking, just shocking.
Terror-linked Muslim lobby's dinner turns into public relations nightmare.
Nihad Awad, director of CAIR, being served
a subpoena.
WASHINGTON – When the Council on American-Islamic Relations held its 14th Annual Banquet at the Marriott Crystal Gateway Hotel tonight, it was planning to raise funds and honor some of its supporters, but instead several top officials of the Muslim lobby group were served with a summons and complaint for various civil and criminal offenses.
Y'mean financing and supporting world-wide terrorism and Jew-killers in Israel is a criminal offense. Who would have thought?
The dramatic surprise, caught on video, was a result of the research work of the Mapping Sharia Project, headed by Dave Gaubatz. He personally served CAIR Director Nihad Awad at the banquet tonight while Democratic North Carolina state Sen. Larry Shaw, a CAIR national board member, was addressing the festivities.
Good to know your local Democrat is hard at work with a bunch of Sharia-yearning lunatics.
Four CAIR clients have filed a federal civil complaint alleging criminal fraud and racketeering against CAIR, a self-described public interest civil rights law firm. The lawsuit also names CAIR's national leadership as individual defendants.
Listen, when a group defines itself as a civil rights organization, chances are pretty darn good that it's a front for a totalitarian leftist movement and a bunch of rabid Jew-haters.

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.
1. No profanity.2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism. That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.
CAIR got served, huh? I love it. That should've been the talk of the town; high ranking members of an organization which supports Islamic terrorism are served with subpoenas at their own annual banquet. I. Love it!

Well, of course you're right, it should have been the talk of the town. Should have been on the front page of every newspaper in the U.S. But it barely made a ripple because:
1. CAIR is, ahem, a civil rights org. for Muslims. Just mention civil rights, or social justice and watch liberals and leftists line up like lemmings behind every tyrant, dictator and Jew-hating demogogue who spews the proper rhetoric.
2. The MSM are scared out of their minds that if they do report on these so-called Muslim civil rights organizations they will find themselves the targets of terrorist attacks. Basically, they are cowards who refuse to report the news. Much easier to assert that Barack Obama is G-d or if not exactly G-d maybe just Abe Lincoln.
3. The MSM basically approve of these death-dealing organizations because deep down they believe that Israel is the root of all evil. And Muslim terrorists have, y'know, "legitimate grievances."

I remember over the last few years when interviewing a CAIR spokesman - who always sounds so "conciliatory" all the interviewer has to ask is "Do you believe Israel has a right to exist" and you get all kinds of obfuscation and empty words - it is like showing a silver cross to Dracula ;-)

Hamas-helping Holy Land Foundation defendants have just been found guilty. I'm sure this will not get much front page attention, but at least the USA Today has it on its home page as of this morning.
