CAIR LOSES SUPPORT AS THE FEDS FINGER THEM FOR THEIR CRIMES

Patrick Poole reports in Front Page Magazine on the new development where CAIR now finds themselves cited as unindicted co-conspirators in terrorism funding.
As I reported recently here at FrontPage (“CAIR by the Numbers”), CAIR’s membership and financial support have dropped dramatically based on data obtained from the organization’s IRS Form 990s. In 2005 (the most recent data publicly available), I estimated that CAIR membership had dropped to approximately 2,615 and their financial support cut by 23 percent from just the previous year. These new legal developments, however, may threaten the very existence of the group, as many supporters may grow fearful of being indirectly connected to terrorism and terrorist financing through their association with CAIR.
It turns out that even some Muslims in America are abandoning them as the news becomes more clear. Loss of support, in Congress and other places, would certainly help bring them down, but an actual indictment would also be quite welcome, as they're definitely asking for it. Let's hope then that this will lead to an actual indictment.
