CAIR (Council on American Islamic Relations) has been fairly quiet in recent weeks. I guess they’ve been quietly plotting to take their jihad against the USA to the inner most circles of our communities now as much as to the major news network talking-heads. Here’s a disturbing PipelineNews.org report:
February 16, 2007 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - Credit Clovis, California middle school teacher Randy Ingram with the courage to state to his sixth grade class the obvious, that Iran has sworn to destroy the state of Israel.
Given Iranian president Ahmadinejad’s constant threatening of Israel with destruction, Mr. Ingram’s statement would seem to be non-controversial.
Unfortunately in California where teacher’s unions are pushing for a Marxist comic book to be used as part of history curricula such truth telling might well be rewarded in the form of disciplinary action.
A single student in Ingram’s class allegedly reported some version of the instructor’s story back to his parents who then, in a template repeated hundreds of times a year by Islamists nationwide, called in the Muslim thought police.
Taking the lead here is Kamal Abu-Shamsieh, the director of Islamic Cultural Center of Fresno.
What the Bee does not inform its readers is that Shamsieh is a professional Islamist; he was described in a 2002 conference for Arab and Muslim journalists:
Kamal Abu-Shamsieh is a former Palestinian journalist and a documentary film maker. He is currently the national community relations director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) based in Los Angeles. He provides the Muslim & ethnic media outlets with weekly updates and news about the Muslim community.
Mr. Shamsieh is both a radical Muslim and an Israel hater who in a piece authored for the far-left pro-Fresno Alliance newsletter, accused the Jewish state of war crimes, “represented a new phase of Israel’s war crimes,” while decrying the alleged, “apartheid policies of Israel.” [source http://www.fresnoalliance.com/home/magazine/2006/Aug06pg1-8.pdf]
Typical of the Islamist mindset, Shamsieh believes in limiting the line of inquiry when it strays to the type of topic that naturally might inconvenient questions:
“I don’t believe schools are a place to debate political views on international affairs or any other affairs that are not related to teaching our children.”
As is usually the case in such matters, the Saudi Wahhabist funded Council on American Islamic Relations is now also pushing this hoax via its newsletter.
These attempts are happening all over the United States and are part of the Islamist agenda to suppress freedom of expression. Such efforts constitute evidence of the Islamists’ disregard for Constitutionally enumerated rights and offer the briefest of glimpses as to what the radical fundamentalists mean when they push for Shar’ia.
For the record think of MPAC as a slicker, more PR savvy CAIR, careful to position themselves as moderate but in reality no different.
Below from an MPAC Los Angeles radio broadcast on the afternoon of September 11, 2001.
“If we’re going to look at suspects we should look to the groups that benefit the most from these kinds of incidents, and I think we should put the state of Israel on the suspect list because I think this diverts attention from what’s happening in the Palestinian territories so that they can go on with their aggression and occupation and apartheid policies.”
According to Dr. Daniel Pipes, Ahmed Younis, MPAC’s then national director, said in March 2005, “that Adolf Eichmann was himself a Jew, so in fact Jews killed themselves in the Holocaust.”
If CAIR is involved, you can always smell — a rat.
And one last word on this article. California residents, I think it’s high time you started behaving like Americans again instead of like the French. This is not a Socialist or Marxist nation. You’re not going to create Utopia by destroying the very fabric of the Constitution in the name of Anarchy, nor are you going to usher in an enlightened age with your barbarian friends the Muslims. How people can continue to be so damn blind is a crime. Can you loathe your own nation and government so much that you would rather associate with the fascist enemy because you are blinded by your own self-righteous indulgences? I hope that California can come back into the light of Reason one of these days very soon. I, for one, am sick and tired of hearing reports of such bent-brained antics drifting out from the richest areas in the Union. I think you’ve all been soaking in the sun too long or have forgotten what it means to work for a cheap hourly wage, so your guilt is driving you to seek a gigantic (Islamo-cratic?) welfare state for the rest of us.
Don’t go down the path with the Islamists, California. It’s too damn predictable. Surprise me for a change.

This crap is getting out of control. What is so awful about saying that Iran calls for Israel’s destruction? It’s the truth-all media outlets regardless of which way they tilt report this. One of these days we’ll probably see someone being sued for using Mo’s name without the usual “praise be upon him” following it.
Islamists have to be looking to control our educational system. It’s the perfect weapon.
Foehammer-
With the Leftist academics ready to roll over and play dead, it’s no wonder CAIR comes protesting. We have rot in America. It stinks. Right now I feel like going out and hurting someone’s feelings. I’m sick of this touchy-feelly crap.
We have to continue to stand behind anyone who speaks the truth. Especially when it involves our vulnerable children.
Foehammmer,
Just wanted to let you know that not all of us out here in CA are blind to the Islamic juggernaut. As a member of a small group of concerned, Christian citizens in rural No. CA, I have been active in exposing the 6 chapters on Islam in the recently approved 7th grade textbooks. We have been educating against this since September.
We have written extensively in the local papers about the total whitewash the TCI (Teachers Curriculum Institute-History Alive!)textbook has given Islam. Several of us have dressed in Muslim attire and stood in front of the schools with signs alerting parents to what their children were being told about this phoney, blood-thirsty religion. Comic-book type tracts were passed out to the students telling the truth about Mo(hammad).
Right from the beginning, we set up a blog to chronicle all that we did as we thought it an educational tool that others could read about and copy or expand on. To date, we have heard of no other city mounting a similar campaign, except a 910 Group member in the Clovis area regarding the Randy Ingram situation.
Other than that, we have been met with silence. The active voices of opposition have, of course, been local educrats and general lefties with their heads in the sand.
We have done all we can do, at least until next year when another batch of 7th graders hit the schoolhouse doors……we’ll be there with a fresh warning.
@standfortruth:
Well, that’s better news than I generally hear on even a good day in this country, I have to tell you. At least someone is fighting to alert parents and protect the kids!
910 Group seems to be gathering steam, slowly but surely. That’s exactly what I was hoping for when I first joined. The word just needs to spread, about efforts like yours, 910, the Anvil, Jihad Watch, LFG, Frontline, Horowitz, etc.
And it will.
Thanks for commenting. I’ve linked your blog. Good luck out there in La La Land, CA!!
