Excerpt:
Former congressman Allen West blasted the Council on American–Islamic Relations on his social media outlets Tuesday morning by thanking CAIR for including him in their "2011-2012 Worst List Inductees" for his "intentional efforts to spread fear and prejudice."
"CAIR obviously fears those who confront them w/ the truth. I'm on their top ten "worst" list. Appreciate the honor," the Florida Republican tweeted to his 192,000 followers, linking to a new 2013 CAIR report, titled "Legislating Fear: Islamophobia and its impact int he United States."
In the CAIR report, Mr. West is listed as someone who was at the center of pushing Islamophobia in America.
