P. David Gaubatz and Paul Sperry, with the help of Gaubatz’s son Chris, who went undercover, have published an important, perhaps even an explosive and sensational book which exposes the Muslim-Brotherhood connected Council on American-Islamic Relations, otherwise known as CAIR.
The book is carefully researched and far too detailed for any one reviewer to summarize in a single review.
The authors dub CAIR and other similar groups, the Muslim Mafia in America; indeed, the title of their book is: Muslim Mafia. Inside the Secret Underworld That’s Conspiring to Islamize America. They document CAIR’s foreign funding sources, ties to fundamentalists and terrorists, (including the Muslim Brotherhood and Al-Qaeda), CAIR’s legally aggressive tactics which are meant to censor free speech as well as the truth about Islamic jihad and fundamentalism in the name of alleged “Islamophobia”—and of course, their brazen lies.
According to the scholar Daniel Pipes, CAIR has lied about their membership size (it is not 50,000 but 5, 133); lied about how many Muslims actually live in America (it is not 7 million but more like 2.3 million); lied about the source of their financial support (most comes from the Arab Middle East), lied about being a grassroots group, etc.
I can assure you that CAIR has also consistently lied about honor killings in North America.
Most recently, CAIR funded the lawyers for Fathima Rifqa Bary’s parents (she’s the Muslim teenager who converted to Christianity and ran away after she said her father had threatened to kill her). CAIR and their lawyers insisted that Rifqa had never been abused or threatened, that apostates are never killed by their Muslim families or communities. They specifically told Florida law enforcement authorities that there is no such thing as an honor killing in Islam. CAIR’s usual line is that every community has its share of “domestic violence.”
However, in a previous study in Middle East Quarterly, and in a new, forthcoming study which will appear in MEQ as well, I have shown that honor killings and western-style domestically violent femicides are very different. Although some Hindus and some Sikhs do commit honor murders, this is mainly a Muslim-on-Muslim and male-on-female crime.
In addition, according to Dr. Rusty Shackleford (MyPetJawa) in the Washington Times:
“A source who infiltrated a strategy session convened by the Muslim Brotherhood-associated Council on American Islamic Relations, reported that CAIR “handed out copies of [a recent] Orlando Sentinel article [that was critical of Rifqa Bary] and want supporters to push the meme that Christians have brainwashed and abducted this gullible teenage girl. They also have instructed supporters to circulate rumors that Rifqa had been carousing with infidel boys and engaged in acts of immorality. This CAIR strategy takes the focus off the near-universal Islamic legal precepts and Quranic injunctions that demand death for apostates and impugns the character of the innocent girl at the center of this controversy who appears to be in genuine fear for her life if she is returned to her parents.” Read more ...
