Politico, a Voice of the Crust.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations on Tuesday threatened to sue Texas Gov. Greg Abbott after his office announced he had classified it as a foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organization.
CAIR, which bills itself as the country’s largest Muslim advocacy organization, accused the Texas governor of seeking to capitalize on rising Islamophobic sentiment. Robert S. McCaw, the organization’s director of government affairs, sent Abbott a letter claiming he lacks the authority to “unilaterally declare any Americans or American institutions terrorist groups.”
Really? Look at the name. “American-Islamic Relations” Apparently they believe that Americans and Muslims are two different things; there are no organizations concerned with “American-American Relations”. Muslims are, by definition, Muslims first and Americans (at best) second. Ask any Muslim. Go ahead. We’ll wait.
