CAIR Attacks the Foreign Policy Research Institute

CAIR’s Philadelphia chapter is holding a press conference tomorrow (Wednesday, March 17) at which it plans “to announce the launch of a nationwide campaign to challenge anti-Islam bias in a series of children’s books that the Washington-based Muslim civil rights group says promote ‘hostility toward Islam and suspicion of Muslims’.”

The reference is to a ten-volume series for middle-schools and high schools titled the “World of Islam” produced by the Foreign Policy Research Institute and published by Mason Crest Publishers. (For the record, in 1986-93, I served as director of the Foreign Policy Research Institute; I had no role in the “World of Islam” series.)

CAIR = a terrorist lobbying organization; ‘enuff said.

I’m not sure what legal issues there are here – but there has to be some sort of thing about masked propaganda in schools and libraries

Lol, masked propaganda is what CAIR specializes in. They sure don't won't anyone moving in on their specialty, and they sure as heck don't want anyone telling the truth about Islam to school kids.

I hope this group is very successful at placing its series of books in schools and libraries.
