If you're going to come out and play in POC, you need to get your facts straight. The Muslims who live in Israel are Israeli-Arabs. They do get to do everything nearly every other Israeli does including to being like the Haredi and not being required to enter the Military. As to Homosexuals, the throwing off roof thing was a ISIS thing to do and not the status quo for dealing with homosexuals.

Rachel got it all wrong. It was the American Jews who held the banners that cair hates jews. Not cair. Talk about spreading hate by both sides.

But that was a different post, and different poster. Not the post (or poster) you quoted.

First the banner was hung by people taking part in the Pro-American and pro Israel rally, not CAIR.

As to the letter it was 100 (2 were Republicans) Democratic and Republican members of Congress, all of whom expressed their support for the controversial organization.

Is THAT what happened? American Jews pushed back on the antisemitism of CAIR and held the banners? (I just saw the photos, but now that I think about it....yeah, CAIR wouldn't be so blatant as to announce they hate Jews. They just reveal it in other ways.) I say, good for American Jews for pushing back against the anti-Semitic CAIR!

And why is it spreading hate to report that CAIR hates Jews? There is much about that horrible organization that screams antisemitism. They say the Jews control the U.S. government. They have defended a horrible anti-Semite. The push the anti-Semitic BDS movement where extremists yell "get out, Jews" and assault Jews on campus. Why should Jews have to suck up and take it? Aren't we allowed to object to anti-Semites?

People and organizations like CAIR who claim that Jews control the government are revealing extreme antisemitism.

And P.S. CAIR was designated as a terrorist organization in 2014. We shouldn't have 100 Congressional representatives issuing support to such an organization, and that includes the 2 Republicans who joined the 98 Democrats.

That would be related to Roger Waters and all the anti-Israel crap he spouts.

Are you defending CAIR as a fine organization? Then you're wrong.
