One of the Jewish state’s most long-term, vocal opponents in the United States has condemned recent drone strikes and troop deployments by the Israel Defense Forces over the weekend.
Nihad Awad, co-founder and national executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), said in a statement: “We strongly condemn the war crimes that Benjamin Netanyahu’s racist government is committing against Palestinian civilians in the Jenin refugee camp using American taxpayer dollars, and we call on the State Department to do the same.”
Awad went down his list of grievances, including “ongoing attacks on refugees, violent settler rampages, illegal settlement expansion, the murder of dozens of Palestinian children this year alone, and the refusal to hold anyone accountable for the brazen assassination of American citizen and journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.”
He said “the Israeli government is completely out of control because it does not expect to face any consequences from the Biden administration.”
A new report was released last month by the Investigative Project on Terrorism about CAIR’s extensive history of antisemitism. The group’s involvement in the White House’s recent national strategy to counter antisemitism has also received significant criticism. JNS
I cry for the peace loving Arabs who believe world Peace will be achieved by flying airplanes into buildings killing thousands of people innocent people I may add. World Peace will be achieved by shooting up supermarkets restaurants and driving into crowds killing all the infidels! Then he cries for the innocent children that are getting getting killed! What about the innocent people in Israel getting killed terrorized what about terrorism all over the world? If it’s true the people in Janine are getting America’s money, as an American I plead insanity as a valid defense. They send children into the front lines of the war which they call Peace and the kids get killed and they cry let’s cry along with them. Considering that Palestinians was non-existent before there was a state of Israel.
We will never learn the true meaning of peace and justice from an Arab. I’m not a racist just a realist. Do you speak French maybe you can explain it better!
Hey Mr. Cair-less,
The IDF found a bomb factory in Jenin. Certainly you don’t want that! Right? Let them continue to root out the rotten apples.
Mr. Awad is a bad person. Personification of evil.
Ho Hum. And the sadistic murder of innocent Israeli civilians he conveniently makes no mention of. Nor does he mention that if Palestinians would stop pay for slay, stop giving special status to the murdering martyrs, and basically live like normal human beings alongside Israel Then Israel wouldn’t have to do these types of operations. But who CAIRS about the facts?
Yes.
Let’s stop the militants from using human shields in Jenin
