CAIR Implicated in Terrorist Activity

Irene Alter has forwarded a link to Investors' Business Daily. A Texas jury has convicted the Holy Land Foundation of illegally financing Hamas. IBD writes:

"Over the course of the years-long case, prosecutors put more than 300 co-conspirators on notice. They include...the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which lobbies the government from its headquarters in the nation's capital.

"Wiretap evidence heard in the case for the first time put CAIR's executive director, Nihad Awad, at a Philadelphia meeting of Hamas leaders and activists secretly recorded by the FBI. Participants hatched a plot to deceive Americans and disguise payments to Hamas as it launched a campaign of terror attacks. CAIR co-founder Omar Ahmad joined Hamas big shots at the summit."
