When the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is upset, you know President-Elect Donald Trump is doing something right.
After Trump announced his National Security Adviser would be General Michael Flynn, who’sĀ fierce in his fight against Islamic radicalism, CAIR went off the rails.
He is also an outspoken critic of radical Islam and shariāa (Islamic law), and has attracted the ire of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
Earlier Thursday, CAIR issued a statement urging Trump not to appoint him ābecause of his history of anti-Muslim comments and associations.ā
It quoted him as comparing Islam to āa cancerā during an event in Texas earlier this year hosted by ACT for America, an organization which CAIR described as an āanti-Islam hate group.ā
āA person who believes the faith of one fourth of the world’s population is a ācancerā should not be advising the president on anything, let alone on our nationās security,ā said CAIR national Executive Director Nihad Awad.
āWe urge President-elect Trump not to appoint General Flynn to any administration post, and if he already has made that decision, to find another candidate who does not hold such bigoted views.ā
Nice job Trump!
