Well, well, well, look who’s back at it again—the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the perpetually aggrieved outfit that’s been moonlighting as a cheerleader for terrorist causes while pretending to “advocate” for Muslim Americans. This time, they’ve got their knickers in a twist over President Donald Trump, slapping him with the oh-so-clever label of “the new Joe Biden” because he’s dared to back Israel’s smackdown of Hamas in Gaza.
Yes, folks, in CAIR’s world, supporting an ally against a terrorist group is apparently a crime worthy of a Biden comparison. Duh.
CAIR, which has spent years dodging accusations of cozying up to some of the nastiest players in the terrorism game, is now clutching its pearls over the body count in Gaza. They’re wailing about Israel’s so-called “genocide”—a term they fling around like confetti—and demanding Trump yank all U.S. support for the Jewish state.
In their Sunday sob-fest, they whined, “As the minimum death toll in [Gaza] crosses 50,000, the Israeli government is completely out of control because Donald Trump is the new Joe Biden: a president who supports genocide and puts Israel first in violation of federal law and disregard for the wishes of the American people.”
Translation: Trump’s not bowing to the Hamas fan club, and CAIR’s feelings are hurt.
The terror-fans went on, practically begging: “President Trump must force [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu to permanently stop his self-serving genocide and accept the comprehensive ceasefire deal that frees all captives. If President Trump wishes to be remembered as a peacemaker and not Netanyahu’s poodle, he must act before the death toll crosses 100,000.”
Oh, the drama! You can almost hear the violins.
Meanwhile, the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry—because who doesn’t trust a terrorist PR firm?—claims 50,000 Palestinians have been killed. Naturally, they don’t bother sorting out how many were gun-toting jihadis versus actual civilians. And let’s not forget the pesky little detail that researchers have caught those numbers being inflated faster than a politician’s ego to smear Israel. Facts? Who needs ‘em when you’ve got a narrative?
Trump, of course, ran on a promise to stand by Israel, our incredibly important ally in the Middle East, while it pounds Hamas into the dirt—a stark contrast to Biden, who spent his term waffling under progressive pressure like a soggy noodle.
Just last month, the White House green-lit a batch of heavy bombs for Israel that Biden had held back, fretting over civilian casualties. Trump? He’s not here for the hand-wringing. He’s told Israel to “finish the job” against Hamas, and CAIR’s not taking it well.
For the past 17 months, ever since Hamas’s charming little Oct. 7, 2023, rampage across southern Israel—complete with rape, murder, and kidnapping—CAIR’s been on a tear, accusing Israel of “genocide” and “ethnic cleansing” at every turn. They even tried pinning “ethnic cleansing” on Israel’s limited ops in Syria after Assad’s regime took a nosedive in December. Then, last month, they screeched that Israel was “moving the genocide from Gaza to the occupied West Bank” during a counterterrorism op dubbed “Operation Iron Wall.”
It’s like CAIR’s got a Mad Libs book of atrocities, and Israel’s the only noun they know.
Since Trump strolled back into the Oval Office, CAIR’s been whining that his administration’s discriminating against Arab and Muslim Americans. They’re mad he’s cracking down on universities letting anti-Semitism fester on campus—calling it “unconstitutional” censorship and Islamophobia. They also flipped out when Trump moved to deport foreign students waving Hamas flags at rallies, branding it “anti-Palestinian.” Poor dears.
CAIR’s rap sheet isn’t exactly spotless, either, as I posted about here.
Back in the 2000s, they got tagged as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing case. Politico pointed out in 2010 that “US District Court Judge Jorge Solis found that the government presented ‘ample evidence to establish the association’” of CAIR with Hamas. The ADL’s noted some of CAIR’s bigwigs had early ties to Hamas affiliates, though CAIR swears up and down it “unequivocally condemn[s] all acts of terrorism,” listing off groups like al-Qa’ida, Hamas, and the Real IRA like it’s a Boy Scout merit badge.
But the mask slipped hard after Oct. 7. CAIR’s co-founder Nihad Awad took the stage at an American Muslims for Palestine convention in Chicago last November and the scumwafer couldn’t hide his glee.
“The people of Gaza only decided to break the siege—the walls of the concentration camp—on Oct. 7,” he gushed. “And yes, I was happy to see people breaking the siege and throwing down the shackles of their own land, and walk free into their land, which they were not allowed to walk in.”
Happy? Over the biggest single-day slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust? That’s not a dog whistle—it’s a foghorn.
So here we are: CAIR’s throwing tantrums because Trump won’t ditch Israel for their terrorist buddies. If they think he’s going to cave, they’ve got another thing coming. Pass the popcorn—this is gonna be good.
We dodged a bullet in this last election.
