On November 17, 2009, a prominent Senator and five leading Members of Congress sent a letter to the IRS asking for an investigation of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) concerning their possible violation of the Lobbying Disclosure Act which limits the expenditures a non-profit can spend on lobbying If CAIR has exceeded the limits of that law, they risk losing their non-profit status. Other penalties may be more severe: if the Secretary of the Senate or Clerk of the House of Representatives determines that CAIR should have registered and find “a knowing violation by a preponderance of the evidence,” CAIR could be “subject to a civil fine of not more than $200,000, depending on the extent and gravity of the violation,” and if CAIR “knowingly and corruptly failed to comply,” they could be subject to imprisonment up to 5 years. Our separate analysis of CAIR tax returns, compared to audio evidence recorded in 2006, reveals another potential issue for IRS investigators – more on that follows below…
"Excerpt: "Hasan — an Islamic man of Middle Eastern descent responsible for having perpetrated a religiously motivated act of mass murder — was the offspring of the same ideology — "political correctness" — that birthed President Obama and which remains the backdrop of each of his thoughts and deeds."]
Despite the availability of rapidly mounting information concerning the Fort Hood shooting and Major Hassan, the President seems not just uninterested in following the scent to which the evidence compellingly points, but thoroughly interested in throwing the rest of us off of it.
As I write this, it has been just over a week since an Islamic army Major and psychiatrist opened fire on his comrades, murdering fourteen and wounding over forty. In spite of the endless supply of cautionary notes about drawing hasty judgments that our President and others seem determined to continue delivering to us, by now the ignorance regarding this event that was our condition when it initially occurred has been considerably abated.
[Excerpt: "CAIR says that it is wrong to blame all Muslims for the actions of a few; this is true. However, it is equally wrong for North American Muslims to remain largely silent, except for a handful, to the terrorist supporting actions of CAIR. We need to see a Muslim-led protest at the headquarters of CAIR.
We need to encourage and see our fellow American Muslims by the score stand up for themselves and against radical variations of Islam, embraced by the likes of CAIR, that are - as described by one American Muslim - "truly a threat" to this country."]
The recent Islamist terror attack against American warriors preparing for combat deployment from Fort Hood, Texas, serves as a harsh reminder that the threat of terror from home-grown radical Muslims remains a very real danger to our country. Major Hasan, the alleged terrorist murderer, appears to have been long under suspicion for his anti-American, pro-radical Islamist statements.
Following the shooting, many leading mainstream American press outlets blamed Major Hasan's attack on "loneliness"; of being angry over his treatment as the result of his Muslim faith, or his reluctance to support the war on terror by deployment to a war zone.
