CAIR Joins NAACP In Resolution On Tea Party Movement.
Global Muslim Report ^

Muslim civil rights group says movement fails to repudiate Islamophobia

WASHINGTON, July 15 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A prominent national Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization today offered support for an NAACP resolution passed earlier this week asking the Tea Party movement to condemn racism within its ranks.

The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) echoed concerns by delegates at the annual convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that the Tea Party has failed to repudiate elements within the movement who use racist or bigoted language.

"If the Tea Party wishes to be taken seriously by mainstream Americans, it must repudiate all those who express or promote extremist, racist or bigoted views while claiming to be affiliated with the movement," said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper.

Hooper noted the NAACP's list of racist incidents tied to the Tea Party movement and cited similar examples of Islamophobic incidents, including:

* Extremist anti-Islam blogger Pamela Geller was invited to speak about "The Threat of Islam" at a Tea Party convention last May in Tennessee. Along with her claim that "Hitler and the Nazis were inspired by Islam," Geller has offered rhetorical support to accused Serbian war criminal Radovan Karadzic and slain Apartheid-era leader Eugene Terre'blanche. She has in the past posted images on her blog that include a fake photograph of Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan in a Nazi uniform, another fake image of President Obama urinating on an American flag and drawings purporting to depict Islam's Prophet Muhammad as a pig. In a June 25 blog entry, Geller posted a video claiming that Muslims engage in bestiality. Despite this history of bigotry and extremism, convention organizers refused to drop Geller as a speaker.

I note that some African Americans always ally themselves with people who hate America.

Racism? what racism? oh you mean code words that you concoct to be racist in order to dish up some white guilt. Nope, sorry, ain’t gunna happen... just because you perceive the world through racist colored lenses doesn’t mean all the rest of us have to conform to your way of thinking or seeing the world. And besides, until you condemn the new black panther party, condemn black on white mob violence, condemn Louis Farrakhan for his racist rants, and condemn the democrat party for all the race baiting during elections, we just cannot take you seriously when you complain about racism.

Maybe CAIR and NAACP could manage to find a copy of the US Constitution down somewhere in the washroom...and point out to the rest of We the People exactly where in that document “racism” is condoned?

The Tea Party movement took note of the faux racism provided by leftist infil-traitors, and we roundly condemned it.

The Tea Party movement should pass a resolution that CAIR and the NAACP stop racism within their ranks. It’s much more prevalent and much more lethal in those organizations than it is within the Tea Party.

It's really a very simple tactic by communists:

ACCUSE THEM OF WHAT YOU DO!

Communist and Islamist Americans are traitors.

They have no business living on these shores. I don’t care what race they are. It makes no difference at all.

How ironic, that the two most racist, intolerant, prejudiced, divisive organizations on the planet demand that America (for that is what The Tea Party is... we are America!) repudiates racism.

Someone should tell CAIR and the NAACP to go under the bleachers, out behind the shed, or to get a motel room if they want to cuddle; nobody wants to watch these two self-debased hate-merchants cornholing each other in public.

What ever happened to the reward for proof that the Tea Party made racists statements during the Obamacare hearings?

Public apologies should immediately follow unproven serious accusations.

Falsely accusing someone or a group of people of racism is very wrong. As bad or worse than racism itself.

Both CAIR and NAACP are Racist Hate Groups that promote one specific race and ethnicity over all others. They are no different than Hitler’s “Aryan Race” nonsense

CAIR also has direct ties to various Islamic Terrorist and Anti-Semitic groups.

If the Tea Party bows down to these racists and tries to force people to shut up...I will stop any association with that Tea Party group.

Its time for Real Conservatives to stand up to these groups....not run like sissies like in the Todd Akin situation

Not to mention those Blacks who convert to this death-cult masquerading as a religion. They renounce their Christianity, the religion of those who owned their ancestors, and wholeheartedly embrace the "religion" of those who SOLD(and in some cases, still do) their ancestors. Yeah, that'll show you honkey mother f******.

NAACP is DNC. CAIR is Muslim Brotherhood.

They agree that they don’t like ordinary Americans.

Big surprise.

Islam is the greatest threat to humankind since the black death - and it’s actually provable. Which is why they try obfuscation and freespeech repression.

Here’s an example:

As said in the post, this kind of info was quickly strangled.
