Muslims Protest Bush Nominee (Daniel Pipes)
Washington Post ^ | 4/7/03 | Alan Cooperman

Posted on 04/07/2003 11:44:34 AM PDT by GOPcapitalist

It's Round 3 of the bare-knuckle slugfest between Daniel Pipes and U.S. Muslim organizations.

The first round was on the Internet, and it went to Pipes. The second round was on college campuses, and it went to Muslim groups. Round 3 is at the U.S. Institute of Peace.

President Bush last week nominated Pipes for a seat on the board of directors of USIP, a nonpartisan, federal think tank established by Congress to promote "the prevention, management and resolution of international conflicts."

The Council on American-Islamic Relations, a D.C.-based civil rights group, called on the White House to rescind the nomination or the Senate to reject it.

Many American Muslims regard Pipes as "the nation's leading Islamophobe," the council said in an e-mail to its supporters.

Daniel Pipes is protested against because he is right, IMHO.

Pipes' worst suspicions were proven with 9/11. He has much more credibility than CAIR. We should watch carefully who falls for CAIR's attempt to keep the world an easy target for islamofascism.

I agree that Pipes is a credible guy. His arguments are always well reasoned, logical, documented and dispassionate.

IMO, objections to him serve to completely discredit those who object.

The alliance of the Left with radical Islam ought to be a wake up call to everyday America. I believe people are taking note.

American (terrorist front group) Muslims don't want Franklin Graham in Iraq

Charlotte, North Carolina-AP -- American Muslims are objecting to the Reverend Franklin Graham's plan to send relief workers into Iraq "in the Name of Jesus Christ" when the war ends.

Graham's Samaritan's Purse ministry is poised to provide shelter, water and medical assistance inside Iraq as soon as military clearance is available.

But Ibrahim Hooper of the Council on American-Islamic Relations says it's inappropriate for a group whose leader has called Islam an "evil and wicked" religion to minister to Muslims.

Hooper says Samaritan's Purse and other ministries offer charity when their real motive is to convert people to Christianity.

In a statement, Graham says: "As Christians, we love the Iraqi people, and we are poised and ready to help meet their needs." And he says Samaritan's Purse has been invited by Christians in Iraq to perform relief work.

"The Council on American-Islamic Relations, a D.C.-based civil rights group"

I bet the description "a D.C. based civil rights group" is misleading in a major way.

Come to think of it, the term "civil rights" is almost always used in an effort to mislead these days. Not surprising considering the leftist influence in most of these groups.

CAIR can cram it.

They have no influence in the administration.

Guess they found that out the hard way.

That's what it all comes down to with the mohammedan thugs. They demand that everybody else bend over backwards to accept, tolerate, and respect their violent, backwards, and heretical religion of false prophecies...but when somebody of another religion even so much as advocates it with acts of charity, they go nuts and attempt to suppress it.

Hooper and that nut who runs the AMC are the Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton of the mohammedan world. Sadly, Grover has become their ambassador to the GOP.
