     CAIR:  Double Standard in Lebanon?

     On Friday, 14 July, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) called on President Bush to demand of Israel that the Israelis allow the US to evacuate American citizens from Lebanon.

     Additionally, CAIR called on the US State Department to issue an advisory to U.S. citizens in the Israeli armed forces that they risk violating the Neutrality Act by taking part in attacks on a friendly nation.

     Why didn’t CAIR call for a cease fire by the Islamic terrorists of Hezbollah, Hamas, and the other assorted Muslim terrorist groups?

     Why is the cease-fire call only applicable to Israel?

     This must be very embarrassing for CAIR.  To be, again, backing losers.

     As to CAIR’s call for enforcing the “Neutrality Act”; perhaps CAIR hasn’t read the act?  The act only calls for restrictions in the event of declared war…Muslim terrorists are stateless, how can they declare war; what civilized country would recognize such a declaration?
 
     …and why is CAIR standing up for terrorists?

     On July 11, 2003, ACAIR brought you the story of Randall Royer, a CAIR official who was arrested on Islamic terrorism related charges.

     One of the charges against this serving CAIR official was that he violated the Neutrality Act.  (Royer later copped a plea to a lesser charge and is now serving a too-short 20 year sentence.)  ACAIR finds it interesting that CAIR brought up the Neutrality Act now and we believe CAIR is miffed because Americans fighting for Israel are not being prosecuted. 

     CAIR, once again, doesn’t know the law and is simply outraged because one of their own is rotting in jail.

     We remind our readers that Americans have traditionally volunteered to serve in allied countries during time of war when the US was neutral.  The famous “Eagle Squadron” of WWII, along with the “Flying Tigers” are two examples that precede volunteering for the Israeli armed forces. 

     Would CAIR like to tell any brave veteran “Eagles” or “Flying Tigers” that they violated the Neutrality Act? 

   
     CAIR has once again risen in defense of the indefensible ...
