Evasions, omissions and half truths -- the stock in trade of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) -- abound in a recently issued document in which the group seeks to debunk what it describes as "Internet disinformation" about it.
The document, posted on the group's web site, provides no specific examples of the so-called disinformation, simply summarizing the allegations by what it terms "a small but vocal group of anti-Muslim bigots" in words chosen to fit its purposes.

To set the record straight, the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) has prepared a meticulous point-by-point 23-page analysis of CAIR's claims, challenging the group's typical CAIRlessness with the facts. Read more ...
