The Council on American-Islamic Relations is founded and funded by terrorists and supported by Florida Democrats, who rallied with them as Israel was denounced.

The Florida House on Thursday adopted a resolution condemning the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and urging state executive agencies and law enforcement to suspend contact and outreach with the group.

HR 1209, sponsored by Rep. Randy Fine (R-Palm Bay), points out that the FBI suspended contact with CAIR in 2008 due to its cozy relationship with Hamas, a U.S. Department of State designated foreign terrorist organization, and “the monsters behind the brutal attack on the State of Israel on 14 October 7, 2023.” …

In November 2023, CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad, speaking at the American Muslims For Palestine Convention in Chicago, praised the massacre.

[Read it all. It didn’t get much opposition, passing 98-15. I suspect the ad may have something to do with the ease of passage here. After Ahwad’s declaration, the vote still should have been 113-0. — Ed]
