CAIR trains FBI agents as new report cites links to terror

By Rowan Scarborough, Insight

An American Muslim group identified as an unindicted co-conspirator in a criminal terrorism case is being used by the FBI to train its agents about Islam. The FBI declined to respond to Insight’s questions about this seeming disconnect, as one of the pre-eminent anti-terrorist research centers in America is set to release an extensive report on the same prominent U.S. Muslim group, accusing the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) of being a foe, rather than an ally, in the war on terror.

The 10-part report on CAIR from The Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT), led by Steven Emerson, debuts March 24. It tells the story of a group formed in the early 1990s to push an agenda of radical Islamists in the Middle East by portraying the war on terror as a war on Islam, and by defending those arrested on terror charges.

"After a careful review of the history, activities, statements, and causes of and by CAIR, it seems that its primary goals are to silence and de-legitimize its critics and redefine what it means to be a moderate Muslim," says the IPT report, a copy of which was obtained by Insight. "And when it comes to U.S. efforts to crack down on terrorists and their financiers, CAIR takes an almost visceral stand in opposition."

"CAIR consistently deceives the American public, law enforcement and politicians, portraying itself as a moderate and independent organization,” Emerson said to Insight. “But its own records, statements and other documents tell a different story which the public deserves to know."

CAIR vigorously rebuts IPT's allegations, which include the charge that it is a front for Hamas, a Palestinian militia designated as a foreign terrorist organization by the United

Do they also get trained by NAMBLA before going after pedophiles? It would amount to the same thing.

All too obvious. And CAIR went after Savage for telling the truth. Perhaps this will help his case.

CAIR uses saudi money to use lawsuits to silence and intimidate critics. They have virtually unlimited resources for litigation and the ear of the mainstream media who consider them a “Muslim NAACP.” That’s what PBS actually called them.

“Muslim NAACP.”

That’s believable - although disgusting.

There’s an old bit of political wisdom: keep your friends close and your enemies closer. I think that advice applies here.

Somehow I don’t think Hoover would be happy with what’s become of his Bureau.

Ah yes, CAIR the money laundering terroristas for piece(s) training our US agents on lies about Islam....soon we’ll all be forced to be politically correct according to the Qur’an and the crosses that highlight steeples across our great nation will be sent to the burn pile in “Chop Chop Square.”

I'll take it a step further. I consider them the Islamist ACLU.

"Those who stay in America should be open to society without melting... If you choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam ... Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth."
— Omar Ahmad, co-founder of CAIR

It doesn’t help that the State Dept., the CIA, and the FBI, are all controlled by liberals.
If not at the top tier, then by an untouchable 2nd tier, who survive any administration changes.
Take a look at Porter Goss and his frustration at trying to clean out the rats in the agencey.

What is consistently missing in these reports is who at the FBI is reponsible for this utterly asinine lack of judgement?
I wonder if my senator, Barbara Boxer, can find out the answer for me?
