Houston Mayor Creates Holiday To Honor CAIR

In a stunning act of ignorance and stupidity, Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner proclaimed an annual day to celebrate the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) by making December 9, 2018  “CAIR-TEXAS, Houston Day”.

The Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR) claims to be “America’s largest Islamic civil liberties group,” but in 2007, the U.S. government labeled CAIR a co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism trial for financing HAMAS.

Along with being classified as a terrorist organization in the United Arab Emirates in 2014, CAIR has been labeled as a Muslim Brotherhood entity by the United States Justice Department and was found by a federal judge, the U.S. Attorney Generals office, and the Fifth Circuit Court of appeals as having direct ties to Hamas.

On July 1, 2009, U.S. District Court Judge Jorge Solis upheld  CAIR’s designation as a co-conspirator, saying there was “ample evidence” linking CAIR to Hamas.

Hamas has also been classified as a designated terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department and is listed as a co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation HAMAS terror funding trial in 2008, which is the largest terrorism financing case in U.S. history. In the Covenant of Hamas, which outlines the goals and motive of Hamas and its members, it states that one of its main goals in the destruction of Israel.

“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.”

The long term plan of the Muslim Brotherhood and their allies is outlined in the Explanatory Memorandum, a document discovered by the FBI in a 2004 raid in Annandale, Virginia in the home of a senior Muslim Brotherhood official. The Explanatory Memorandum explains step by step how Muslims will implement their take over of America. 

After the Department of Justice found CAIR conspired with terrorist organizations like HAMAS and the Muslim Brotherhood, the FBI severed ties with CAIR, saying it “does not view CAIR as an appropriate liaison partner.”

Instead of condemning CAIR, Mayor Sylvester Turner said,  “As a leading voice for Houston’s Muslim community, CAIR strives to maintain the highest ethical standards in all of our endeavors.”

His statement couldn’t be further from the truth…

It makes one wonder if Mayor Sylvester Turner has any knowledge of CAIR’s classification before honoring them with their own holiday in America.
