CAIR

World leaders and organizations react to US President Joe Biden's announcement of the proposed hostage deal.

The suspect, identified by police as Bert James Baker, shouted obscenities, attempted to rip a "Free Palestine" flag from their car and stabbed a 23-year-old Palestinian-American in the chest.

"[Gazans] have the right to defend themselves... Israel, as an occupying power, does not have that right to self-defense," CAIR director Nihad Awad said at a conference.

CAIR and its members have been at the center of a host of different controversies regarding antisemitism.

The National Muslim Democratic Council called on Biden to use his influence with Israel to broker a ceasefire by 5 p.m. ET (2100 GMT) on Tuesday.

How can CAIR stand against antisemitism when they don't acknowledge or condemn the killing of hundreds of Jews?

CAIR national executive director Nihad Awad said that he "strongly condemn the war crimes that Benjamin Netanyahu’s racist government is committing against Palestinian civilians in...Jenin."

KNOW COMMENT: The US should scrub programs that indirectly subsidize antisemitism.

Lipstadt's Combating Antisemitism Strategy was criticized for including CAIR despite it being known for its antisemitism and anti-Israel comments.

CAIR is a self-declared Muslim civil rights and advocacy group headquartered in Washington that has been accused of being antisemitic and supporting Hamas.
