Six Ohio universities who have been working to combat “misinformation” about the Middle East and Islam have chosen the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as their partner. CAIR has well-documented connections with the terrorist group Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.
A video promoting the Northeast Ohio Consortium for Middle East Studies (NOCMES) states that Muslims are human beings who are often misjudged as terrorists. CAIR was listed as a partner in the effort on a promotional flyer for a NOCMES event.
Jorge Solis, the federal judge for a 2010 U.S. case against the Holy Land Foundation that exposed CAIR as a front group for Hamas, wrote at the time that the government’s evidence created “at least a prima facie case as to CAIR’s involvement in a conspiracy to support Hamas.” CAIR was named an unindicted co-conspirator during that trial.
