CAIR Looks to Muscle in on Fitna Screening


On Monday Arizona Senator Jon Kyl announced that he will be holding a screening of the anti-Islam movie Fitna.
Of course once this was announced the Council on American Islamic Relations couldn't leave it alone. CAIR wants one of their representatives present so that they can present the "other side" of the argument. They also said that the film's creator Geert Wilders spewed hatred, but of course CAIR did not mention a word about the hate being spewed by the Muslims in the film. Nor did CAIR mention a word about the hate being spewed against Jews at these Muslim rallies.


Arizona Senator Asked to Invite Muslim Reps to Balance Anti-Islam Film


CAIR-AZ urges Sen. Kyl to recognize that there are 'Muslims in his own state'

PHOENIX, Feb. 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Arizona chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-AZ) today called on one of that state's senators to invite Muslim representatives to offer a balancing perspective to a screening of an anti-Islam film he is hosting in Congress.

On Thursday, Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) will host a closed-door screening of a 15-minute film by Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders. Wilders was recently denied entry to Britain because of his extreme anti-Muslim views, including urging that the Quran, Islam's revealed text, should be banned. One of the event's co-sponsors, the Center for Security Policy headed by Frank Gaffney, is linked to an anti-Islam group that has advocated prison terms in the U.S. for "adherence to Islam."

"It seems that Senator Kyl is oblivious to the fact that there are Muslims in his own state who will take offense at this cheap anti-Islam publicity stunt designed to promote a person who is under indictment for inciting religious hatred," said CAIR-AZ Executive Director Ahmad Daniels. "Geert Wilders is just one of many self-promoting Islamophobes traveling the world in search of attention for their hate-filled views. We ask that Americans of all faiths ignore Mr. Wilders, thereby depriving him of the attention he so desperately seeks. Wilders has the right to spew his hate, but he does not have the right to a taxpayer-funded platform in the United States Congress."

Daniels urged Sen. Kyl to join the ongoing efforts to end partisan politics in Congress and to reach out to the Islamic world by inviting speakers with a differing viewpoint to that of Wilders.

He added that, following a request by CAIR's Los Angeles chapter, a California synagogue that screened a film claiming "confrontation between Islam and the Jews" agreed to invite a Muslim representative who could offer a balancing perspective of interfaith understanding.

Right, they cut off our heads and we stop whining.

This must have been a reform or at best a "conservative" temple. Dhimmies, the lot of them.

PS-CAIR = oxygen thiefs.

Hi Editor,
Interfaith talks with Muslims have accomplished nothing in 1400 years. It is just a con by Muslims to get people to back off on Islam.

Muzzammil Hassan card carrying member and realistic representative of CAIR was scheduled to appear at the screening were it not for some messy legal problems he is having at the moment.

It is amazing how much trouble their religion gets them into in non-Islamic countries. Maybe they should head to Islamic ones.

Interfaith talks is just a con by Muslims to slip through until they get the upper hand. Then its "off with your head".
Hope Fitna gets more and more attention...

CAIR is a terrorist organization that should be banned in the US. This is a typical muslim move.

Dhivehi Resistance,
I agree 100%. Interfaith talks are just a stall tactic. If Muslims wanted to change things they have to have talks amongst themselves. There have been interfaith talks for 1400 years and now the problem has spread to our backyard.

Well, the ummah in the US is not yet strong enough in numbers to issue threats like they do in England and Europe. They ask how high. Stop Musmim immigration now.

anonymous, we discovered the truth about Islam by reading its canon of scripture, tradition & jurisprudence.

Not selected snippets which present an unbalanced image, but the real thing, in context.

One web site, http://geocities.com/crusadersarmory/
has links to the best online resources and chm files you can download, search and study off line.

That site includes links to search engines that let you search the Qur'an, hadith & tafsir. That way, the reader has an independent means of verifying everything.

Allah said "fight them", "fight those who". Moe said "I am commanded to fight". He also prophesied that Jihad would continue from 610 to the end of the world.

Another of his prophesies reveals that just before the end, Jesus will return to lead the Muslims in the slaughter of the remaining Jews.

Let doubters search for and read "What's Wrong with Islam/Muslims?". Read it and follow the links it contains.

Search for and read "The Defamation of Jesus Christ?", it has links to source documents.

Go to Scribid and look up their scanned image of Reliance of the Traveller. Read Book O, Chapter 9 particularly O9.0 to O9.11.

What does the Caliph do? Why? How frequently?

To anonymous Muslim. We all see the quotes from Islamic leaders who are preaching hate. They are scholars and leaders, YOU ARE NOT. So save the con we have heard it all before.
