Meanwhile, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) continues freely to operate in America. In the wee hours of election night 2016, in fact, its Los Angeles office leader called for the overthrow of the U.S. government.
The Trump administration has stated its commitment to fighting Islamic supremacism, including the Muslim Brotherhood itself.
To what lengths would America's leaders go to protect a group that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) deemed a terrorist organization?
A bombshell new report from the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) reveals the alarming answer.
It involves a man who in his almost 50 years of public life has done more for America's enemies -- first of the Communist variety and later of the jihadist brand -- than perhaps any other: Iran lobbyist-in-chief John Kerry.
In the most recent case, he did so in secret, apparently well aware of the political consequences of exposing the potentially catastrophic policy he was pursuing to the light of day.
As IPT's report details, Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim American Society (MAS) were classified as terrorist groups by the UAE in 2014, as two of the 83 entities identified as such for their ties to the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood.
